Uh, Washington thinks you still have to pay income tax after renouncing your citizenship and bullies governments into collecting it or even extradicting you if you do not pay.



No you only have to pay if you keep your citizenship and leave the country. If you are no longer a citizen you no longer pay.


We disagree.


I am stating a fact. There is no opinion.

If you have no ties (current citizenship, located within US territory or work) to the US, you do not pay US taxes.


What percentage of the world's countries will still respect the US's extradition treaties in 4 years?


Approximately the same percentage that respect them now IMHO.
