This article really focuses on the economic reasons that people give up their passport, but every now and then, you hear of someone saying that "if so-and-so is elected, I'm moving to another country," presumably never to return. Of course, to the best of my knowledge, these people never leave, but it still makes me wonder:

What would it take for you to give up your American citizenship?

[For the record, I'm not leaving.]
