I don't really personally see anything alarming here.
ps. how are the income tax progressions in US anyways?
"Your average annual net income tax for the 5 years ending before the date of expatriation or termination of residency is more than a specified amount that is adjusted for inflation ($139,000 for 2008; $145,000 for 2009 and 2010).
Your net worth is $2 million or more on the date of your expatriation or termination of residency."
For the expat linked to concern you you'd need to be filthy rich or on filthy high income to begin with.
People with above the threshold net income are really the 'rich elite' you're so heavily lined up against. Please read the edit on my prior post. I can understand discussing conspiracy theories but let's at least stick to a degree of facts.

Not to mention the fact that I've never been impressed by people claims of higher education when books and daily study can easily achieve the same level of knowledge.

I difference I see between Zeyi and Keiz is I see Zeyi is keeping an open mind and is asking questions on all takes. I see Keiz as compartmentalised.
After reading, then looking at it from Edward Flaherty perspective and then asked further questions of my own. Then questioned his angle.

The first thing that stood out for me without even having to do any research was his take on presidental order 11110.
Why did he not touch apon the concepts of ...
11110 would end the feds monopoly on the issuing of the usa currency?
Also the Fed would no longer have full control in setting the interest rates?
What would have happened if this money been in circulation for a long period of time? Could have this bankrupted the fed?
I then had to look into other ideas that I was aware of but lacked the vocabulary like Compound interest.
I had found other takes on his answers but the one that stood out was.

The 2 conclusions I had come to on Edward Flaherty theis was he was either compartmentalised or his take was biased by design.

What if there was a prison where the inmates were not aware that they are captive but also taking the role of Prison guard by conformity of the other inmates who have the desire to escape by questioning the status quo... without even realising it?

All I am saying go back on history with an open mind and ask "who benefits?"
