Citizenships shouldn't be for sale. Neither selling citizenship, nor revoking it for money.

This is a degeneracy of modern states. Don't celebrate it just because "your guy" is doing it this time.

I agree with this. If a nation wants to claim sovereignty by virtue of the consent of its citizens, shouldn't they have to meet some basic level of responsibility to those citizens...one of which includes allowing them to move around (unless they have committed some crime). Now, I suppose not paying one's debts is a sort of crime, but not one that I think we should be limiting people's movement over.

The problem is we don't put a price tag on citizenship or that price is too low

Prisons are the ideal punishment for the worst crimes in a civilized society with rule of law. Vengeful punishments are a degeneracy for uncivilized peoples.
