Certainly, there's that potential reaction to this tougher enforcement, you can call it, of U.S. citizenship taxation, with people becoming appreciative of the obligation it creates and judging it not worth their while to remain U.S. citizens as a result. I've forgotten the stats, but whatever the baseline was.... I think a recent report suggested that something in the order of 3,000 American citizens were renouncing citizenship in the last period, whatever that may be. I think they are observing that.
Here I'm really freelancing, because I can't speak with any authority as to U.S. tax or citizenship law, certainly, but my understanding is that the U.S. tax law does have some rules that seek to neutralize the consequences, or neutralize the tax consequences, of renunciation of citizenship, and that in some circumstances they might still seek to apply taxation or at least ensure that taxes have been paid for the past period. So there are complications, I guess I could say with some confidence, to trying to renounce citizenship.
