It really doesn&#x27;t make sense how the US is the only country which insists on taxing their citizens, no matter where they live. It makes American labor less competitive and promotes the insularity of American culture.<p>I&#x27;m living abroad and you can definitely see the impact of the US tax system in the background of expats: Americans are severely underrepresented. The same salary, when offered to a British expat and an American, is much less attractive to the American because of the 30+% tax burden imposed.
