The U.S. is the only country in the world that taxes someone's worldwide income, regardless of where they are living. The U.S. Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act become law in March 2010 with the intention of finding and taxing Americans hiding their assets outside of the US. Unfortunately for the approximately 6.32 million Americans living outside of the US, a population equivalent of Tennessee, this law has kicked us out of our banks and created general regulatory and tax nightmares. Though the complications from this Act are well known and documented, Congress has little initiative to change the situation as they are accountable only to those in their district and not to us. This is "Taxation without Representation." Create congressional delegates for Americans living outside of the US
