You seem to be confusing it with this one:

Edit: Naturally, this doesn't invalidate what you're saying, this is just a clarification.
- mikeyouse 11y agoI was trying to avoid digging up the old ones.. but here are some previous examples; 2012 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3850929 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3850929 2014 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8368174 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8368174 2015 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10379308 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10379308 But if you look at say, CNBC or Fortune, a nearly identical article is composed every year (or more) without fail. https://www.google.com/#q=site:cnbc.com+taxes+renouncing+us+citizenship https://www.google.com/#q=site:cnbc.com+taxes+renouncing+us+... It's an exceptionally narrow topic that gets an outsized focus, maybe because it highlights a wider narrative? Otherwise I'm at a loss why anyone would care.
