This podcast episode delves into the complexities of FATCA litigation and U.S. citizenship taxation, exploring why legal challenges to FATCA often fail. The discussion emphasizes the distinction between addressing the symptoms of FATCA, such as privacy breaches and discrimination, and tackling its root cause: U.S. citizenship-based taxation.
The episode scrutinizes the implications of the U.S. imposing tax obligations on citizens residing abroad, questioning whether this practice aligns with international law principles. It argues that U.S. citizenship taxation expands the U.S. tax base globally, often conflicting with the tax sovereignty of other nations and potentially violating customary international law (CIL).
Listeners are encouraged to consider whether U.S. citizenship taxation, which bases tax residency on citizenship rather than physical or economic ties, is an outdated practice incompatible with modern international norms. The podcast aims to spark a broader discussion on the need for tax reform, particularly for Americans living overseas.
