RENOUNCE NEW ORLEANS?

Carnival Ride Exit, Baton Rouge LA 10/2005
from the series Baton Rouge Blues

There was an article in the New York Times today titled , Tax Leads Americans Abroad to Renounce U.S. , by DOREEN CARVAJAL. The article is about how a small number of American citizens give up their U.S. citizenship each year for various reasons.

It was a strange idea , and then I applied it to leaving New Orleans. I feel some guilt and a great deal of sadness about leaving. The only consolation being that I can always move back someday.
