What the hell did I just step in? He's doing it to make himself a better world traveler? He's between 29-30 years old & supposed to be smarter than the teenaged angst idiocy of these kinds of acts!
He's going to need an army of crowbars to get his head out of his ass when he finally realizes what he's done. Then again... this kind of stupidity is usually 'light speed' terminal.
Or so we can hope...

Pretty sad when you have to go to a communist country to avoid high democracy taxes. US wake up becuase more of your wealthy citizens will be leaving your deficit laden / spending country. I bet politicians will use greed to make people angry at him. I salute him in finding a better answer to this country's problems by leaving it. Just stay here on the plantation and the politicians will just keep using your greed and stupidity to take everything you have.

And I'm sure the crooks, politicians, corrupt police & the propagated individuals in organized crime will make make his stay on his little naive little white ass all that much easier?
