“An ‘expat’ is simply one who lives outside their country of citizenship for a sustained period of time.”

There are a number of us Expats on FR, and there are a few “dogs in a manger” FReepers who resent it, but that is their problem, not mine.
That does not have anything to do with renouncing citizenship or hating our home country.
I became an expat before I had ever heard of Obumbo, but he reinforces my desire to stay away.
If half of the US citizens love Obumbo, I want no part of them or their stupid thoughts.
I live on the social security that I paid into during my productive years. I could not live on it in the US, even if I wanted to.
I doubt, however, that the US would continue to pay me if I made a formal declaration to renounce my citizenship.
I have yet to see where retaining my citizenship could have any negative effect on my expat living.
