I have never understood why Americans want to govern the world. As far as law, and American can be prosecuted for a crime overseas where it may not be a crime. I find this the same as the Taliban having a trial for a woman back in Afganistan who recently went to New York and walked the streets alone.
I saw this about giving up citizenship due to tax liabilities and I completely understand. The answer is simplicity. If you want people to follow the law, remove complexity. "Fair" is relative, because what is fair for one is not fair for others. How about firing 95% of the IRS and having a 15% flat tax? No reason to flee if everyone is the same.
Here is the US Constitution and the Amendments, which I have read. I see no provisions for anything that would not treat citizens equally.
Perhaps it is time to completely through out every law and start over. The Japanese did it at WWII and it seems to have worked, but the Japanese were completely defeated.
Perhaps with debt, complexity, and some skewed desire for "fairness", the USA should declare defeat and start from scratch with the laws.
One note about the US Constitution is that I believe it to be a superior document due to flexibility; whereas, the EU Constitution is just...confusing.
