It should be noted that other countries such as Canada. Germany. and Denmark have enacted similar proposals to that proposed by the Senate. Other objectors have raised the issue of human rights. They have compared these provisions to efforts of the Soviet Union to prevent emigration by its citizens from the Soviet Union. This comparison is entirely misguided. The individuals affected by this proposal are not renouncing their citizenship because of lack of economic or political freedoms in this country. but. rather. these are individuals who are simply unwilling to contribute to a country whose political and economic system has benefited them extraordinarily well.
