All US billionaires combined are worth $4 TRILLION dollars. If we taxed this wealth at just 50%, we could give EVERYONE IN AMERICA $2.4 MILLION DOLLARS.

The more capitalist the nation, the more it wants to import 500 billion brown people so CEOs don't have to pay their own native population a fair and livable salary. Capitalism is the ultimate kike invention

Lol, what? The US citizenship is already one of, if not the most renounced citizenship in the world just because the US, unlike almost every other country, actually taxes you internationally. The billionaires in OP’s scenario wouldn’t even have to live in the other country for years, they could literally just buy the citizenship in a country that has a citizenship-by-investment program, like Cyprus, Malta, Dominica, etc.
