Can you point me to a single example of someone being stripped of their citizenship for an error in birth city ? There are many examples of someone being stripped of their citizenship for lying on the application . Your attempt to relate this to a specific lie is a red herring as that is not the important part , the lying is . You keep calling this a ' clerical error ', that is another red herring . This mistake was not by a clerk or anyone other than the applicant . If you would like to continue this please stop posting what are very blatant falsehoods . <| sep |> This is informative but a gross oversimplification . Maybe in the general equities market go passive . But also remember there are certain fund managers who beat the market so that ' s part of the issue finding those guysBut when you ' re trying to diversify your portfolio with things like bond funds and international funds passive never wins . Active justifies the higher fees by earning the % back in performance . In sum , you need passive and active for a smart portfolio .
