If you want to remove your data, remove it before terminating your account with Facebook. Also, if you expect any kind of privacy, posting your information on a public domain is equivalent to speaking it in public, or even writing it on a poster or billboard and leaving it out in the open.
Now, with that being said, I don't think Facebook has the right to intentionally hand out your information on the basis that they "own" it. It also wouldn't be that hard to make an option for users to wipe their account and all of their records while terminating their access to it. (An individual can already block your posts from appearing on their page.)
