vcczar Posted September 12 Author Share Posted September 12 I find him favorable only because he's in a conservative state. If he voted this way in MA, I wouldn't like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeP47 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 TBH I have an extremely low opinion of FACTA, and unfortunately only because I know people directly affected. It really does place undue burden on people who aren't really wealthy at all and just happen to live abroad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
