This is a trap. They won't pay.

    100% trap. As soon as someone self-reports, ICE will be over there kicking their doors in.

  • Definitely a trap.

    Take your picture and tell us about your relatives. We will absolutely not send this straight to ICE.

    Definitions of submission (source: Wiktionary)

    1. A submission is something that you give to somebody to be checked or accepted.

    2. Submission is the act of accepting that somebody has power over you

    I wonder which submission these fascists plan to follow-up on...

    I'm sure that's in the roadmap. At some point it's going to be "Love it - or leave it!".

    No way. They don’t want to miss out on the couple grand it costs to renounce your US citizenship

    Yep, everyone ready to forgo citizenship until it cost $2k.

    No reason to dump the citizenship. I know you're still required to pay taxes, but what can they do if you just...don't? Right now there's extradition, but with Dipshit Donnie trashing international relations, those treaties won't last forever.

    If you’re actually serious, and if you fall into the LGBTQ+ umbrella, you may be able to come to Canada as a refugee.

    I’m not sure if the USA qualifies yet, but I read they’re working on it. That may be in effect already, I’m not sure.

    The clue is: "you may be eglible". Turn yourself in, and all you will get is a free flight if you are lucky. To somewhere.

    Is there any way to game this and make bank somehow?

    I assume if you were planning to leave anyway. It helps their numbers. It helps you. Like, maybe 20 years ago, financial immigration was one way. Nowadays the qualified immigrants just go elsewhere, lol. The USA is not that special and is actively hostile.

    Sounds like a good way to have the ICE goonsquad show up at your house at 3 am. God damn I hate this country

    bruh I don’t want taxes used for this

  • Now when I visit the US I only need to buy the inbound flight for me and my family. And I get $4000 spending money.

    This will really boost tourism.

    I guess that could be an alright deal if you somehow know you were being kicked out anyway

    Everyone commenting that they wont pay or its all a trap isnt thinking about the optics and expense. Im not SAYING that they are wrong, or that the whole initiative ISNT evil (it is) but paying Ice agents, vehicles, camps, etc. All costs money (more than you would think) and makes you look like assholes (which they are). People deciding to pack up and leave on their own, withdrawing their savings selling their vehicles and leaving willingly on a plane costs less than the whole track down, round up, detain and deporting process and is considerably less bad for the optics.

    My grandparents fled germany in the 30s back when being Jewish was becoming dangerous but they were still content for you to just GTFO. I wouldnt be surprised if it was legit... Still fucking wrong tho.

    In that case, what's ICE planning on using their new, bigger-than-most-militarys' budget for? I'm not implying you're wrong, because you do make some good points, but I want to remind everyone of the obscene amount of money they have.

    The vast majority who wont take them up on it.

    If the per capita cost of deporting someone against their will is $10,000 and the cost of deporting someone consentually is $10,000 its still a win. Its just less work, every person who leaves voluntarily frees up the snatch teams to go after someone who doesnt.

    What are the odds they just use this to find people to arrest and throw in concentration camps?

    Shit man, maybe I should have done that when I left the UK. I could have gotten them to fucking pay me on top of getting away from a shithole
