Excellent essay about the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (Part of 2010 HIRE Act). This little known law has some terrible consequences for Americans at home and abroad and also for the world.If you are an American abroad and are looking for what FATCA means for you personally, this is not the book for you. Instead Morris turns his attention to how this law is extraterritorial - how it imposes American law on other countries (though there is every indication that there will be significant blowback on the US) with ugly, expensive consequences for all countries. This essay is for all those who think that American law can't possible impact them since they are not Americans. Alas, they will soon learn otherwise.
If you are searching for more information regarding FATCA, such as how it came to be a law that seems to appeal to many governments who are signing away their rights and privileges of self rule then this book is not for you. If you are looking for a banner under which to gather in order to turn this law around you will not find it within this essay. This is a simple reporting of the current state of events regarding FATCA.
Morris shows that the US FATCA legislation is what it purports to be - a means of rooting out fat cat Americans dodging taxes via overseas accounts. FATCA is the camel's nose in the tent to control the world banking system, and in the process force banks in developing countries to be subservient to banks in US-favored nations. As usual, the people who get squeezed are the middle class and poor while the banksters get ever-richer.
