That's one of the reasons why I moved back to the USA. Bush changed the rules on taxation for expats.

I agree. If I make money external to the US, they get 0 until I bring it back. Not that I expect I'll ever make money outside of the US, but it's nice to dream.

What's with this silly notion that people have that they own themselves. You may have the freedom to move but you will always be tax-livestock.
