IOKIYAR:
Inspired by the actions of Eduardo Saverin, the Facebook co-founder who renounced his citizenship
ahead of a large tax payment associated with the company’s
much-ballyhooed initial public offering, Sens. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and
Bob Casey (D-PA) unveiled a bill Thursday to force such tax-dodgers to
pay a 30 percent tax rate on all future U.S. investments and ban them
from ever setting foot in the country again.
Anti-tax activist Grover Norquist compared it to the actions of Nazi Germany.
“I think Schumer can probably find the legislation to do this. It
existed in Germany in the 1930s and Rhodesia in the ’70s and in South
Africa as well,” Norquist said, as quoted by The Hill. “He probably just plagiarized it and translated it from the original German.”
Yes, that's a real probative and not-at-all illogical reaction to it -- jackass.

Final proof, if any was needed. Eduardo Saverin is the true Republican patriot. All take, no obligations or responsibilities. Perfect.
Who elected Norquist King of Congress?
Rhodesia in the ’70s
A curious example, since the white minority regime at that time was a favorite of American right-wingers.
norquist is going down hard. eventually. right? RIGHT?!?

Hard to argue with that.
