This sounds (very) much like a communist regime "exit visa". What's next. Guard towers. Facing inward?

Croc would agree with you

Australian expatriate Paul Hogan returned Down Under last week to attend the funeral of his mother, and now he can’t leave the country because he owes millions in back taxes, the Associated Press reports. The 70-year-old “Crocodile Dundee” star now lives in Los Angeles with his wife (and former co-star) Linda Kozlowski and 12-year-old son, Chance, but they didn’t make the trip with him. “These may not be the appropriate circumstances to effectively make Paul a prisoner of Australia,” his lawyer Andrew Robinson tells Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio. Australian tax officials have been investigating reports that Hogan hid earnings from his surprise film career in offshore bank accounts, and late month claimed he owed taxes on the equivalent of $34 million American dollars. Hogan has denied the claims, and is "stunned and disappointed" by the legal manuever, according to a statement from Robinson's law firm.

Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!

To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you need to threaten to report me to the Admin if I don’t add you to the list...

On the bright side, we'll finally get our border fence...

Neva happen....most of DC would have stay in the US year round....

Imagine the implications of total bondage....financially...by the IRS. Would hopefully be the death of the agency...and of those types of Federal data bases.

Remember all the professional offendees who were screaming "Berlin Wall! Berlin Wall!" when the subject of building a wall to keep people out came up?

I'm guessing they'll be dead-silent on this one.

The US isn’t a petty dictatorship. There’s nothing petty about it at all.

What if I came here as an Indonesian with an American mother and unknown father on a student visa, but then got a Connecticut SSN that allowed me to work as a constitutional law professor and community organizer? Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Hypothetically, they could still travel on their Indonesian passport.

Hypothetically.

Exit points to the country simply demand your Social Security Number at the gate to run your tax return before letting you leave.
The irony would be if you cannot leave the country for medical treatment because you aren’t in Obamacare or refuse to pay the healthcare fine.

A Berlin Wall is being erected around the United States to prevent the American people from escaping the new Workers' Paradise.
