If you could take your $2 million in value with you, which you and your ancestors created, and buy a citizenship, say in India, for $100,000. You would feel less embittered and might even be happier. Your new compatriots would benefit from your spending. You would get a cheaper way of life.

Somebody who thinks it's good to be in the USA could buy your citizenship. We lived in Canada [a mini-USA though Canadians think they are different - it was fun taunting a "French" Canadian, Bernie Pilon, that he was really just another American] and it was a money-making venture [and more, but money was good]. People would choose to live in the USA to make a lot of money before going back to their more culturally-comfortable home base.

Rather than forcing everyone into a state-chattel serfdom relationship, which embitters a lot of people, let everyone serve their own purposes more. Then things would go a lot better. There would be less anger and Tim McVeigh might not have blown up the ATF gang who killed a swarm of people at Waco because the Waco people wouldn't have been getting into conflict with people trying to boss them around. Because the relationships wouldn't be of serf and state.

When King George II says, "Hey, what do y'all think of going and getting Saddam and having a jolly old war?" and the USA share price goes down, he would soon get the message that his job is to make the USA share price go UP not down. Congress would vote in more focused ways.
