Taxation on worldwide income is evil. Americans should be able to “vote with their feet” like Brits.

Absolutely! Only one other nation taxes based upon citizenship - and that’s the strongarm dictatorship of Eritrea. ALL other nations tax based upon where you earn the money, not where you’re a nominal citizen.

Note that the US also extends this claim to legal residents; if you are a citizen of another nation, but have a green card, you still have to pay US income taxes on monies earned overseas, even if you’re overseas for the entire year.
