Considering Expatriation

So, I've been thinking lately about expatriation. Now I am thinking that if Ron Paul does not take the nomination and the White House, then I will start getting ready to leave. In the meantime, I am working on "planting a flag" as Simon Black says.

I am thinking about establishing a secondary household abroad for now, perhaps as a "vacation home" at first, then spend more time there until I can get residency. Maybe start a business or so. There are many places where one can do this fairly cheaply.

Anyone else considered getting out of the country as a means of bug out? If so, have you acted on it? Tell us of your experiences abroad.
