  I think taxes should be meant as a contribution to the services to are getting (pension, roads, schools). If you are not living in a country, you shouldn’t pay taxes there. In the other hand, a company that ID physically on US soil should pay taxes there

    If you make a fortune from your connections to an economy, people, and society; wherever you may live personally, it makes sense for you to contribute back to that society. You may not directly benefit from its roads, but you make money from the people who do. Money you wouldn’t be able to have without those roads.

      That becomes very faint as a connection. If you live abroad and have no economic connection to my country of origin. Why should you pay? And how can you legally determine or versus the other?

        If you were born and raised abroad, hold no assets in the taxing country, you wouldn’t have anything for them to tax. I’m not sure what you’re getting at.
