    Because you’re American and should pay taxes no matter if you’re in Antarctica or not.

    Why is America the only country that has this perspective (Eritrea excepted)? Is literally every single other country besides an African dictatorship simply delusional, and only America and Eritrea found the divine wisdom that all global income should be taxed?

        Why are you talking about wealth taxes when they have nothing to do with the question I asked?

        Again, why is America the only major country that has this policy? Either answer this, or don’t respond.

          Because this is a form of wealth tax. That’s not even a question you’re asking. Fuck out of here with that aggressive debate lord shit.

            The topic was on taxing foreign income. To quote the relevant bit from above:

            If you are a U.S. citizen or a resident alien of the United States and you live abroad, you are taxed on your worldwide income.

            Though I agree that if you aren’t capable of even following the topic at hand, it’s best that I just save my breath here.
