Bush Buys Land In Paraguay? Is This Where The Nazi's Hid? As calls for his impeachment grow louder, coupled with possible war crimes trials to begin next year, President George W. Bush may be thinking that South America would make a fine place to retire. At least two sources now report that Bush has purchased an isolated 100,000 acre ranch in Acuifero Guarani, Paraguay. Prensa Latina reports: An Argentine official regarded the intention of the George W. Bush family to settle on the Acuifero Guarani (Paraguay) as surprising, besides being a bad signal for the governments of the region. Luis D Elia, undersecretary for the Social Habitat in the Argentine Federal Planning Ministry, issued a memo partially reproduced by digital INFOBAE.com, in which he spoke of the purchase by Bush of a 98,842-acre farm in northern Paraguay, between Brazil and Bolivia. The UK Guardian reports: Rumours of Mr Bush’s supposed forays into South American real estate surfaced during a recent 10-day visit to the country by his daughter Jenna Bush. Little is known about her trip to Paraguay, although officially she travelled with the UN children’s agency Unicef to visit social projects. Photographers from the Paraguayan newspaper ABC Color tracked her down to one restaurant in Paraguay’s capital Asunción, where she was seen flanked by 10 security guards, and was also reported to have met Paraguay’s president, Nicanor Duarte, and the US ambassador to Paraguay, James Cason. Reports in sections of the Paraguayan media suggested she was sent on a family “mission” to tie up the land purchase in the “chaco”.

You can never be too prepared I guess but I think this is a bit...premature? to say the least. Hiding from war crimes? Not likely gonna be a problem. They have a hard enough time prosecuting war crimes against 75 year old former dictators.

It takes the money out of any chance to require payment of income taxes to the U.S.
First you grant tax "repayment" to the wealthy for taxes they never paid (those guys don't pay payrole taxes, which is the majority of the income of the U.S.), then you make it easy for them to hide that gift income offshore.
