This has gone on too long, you don’t seem to know what you’re talking about

You just seem like you got mad at them saying everything is taxed but had no way to address it so you resorted to nitpicking when it’s perfectly clear what they are saying

If you do have any clue about taxes then perhaps instead of ranting to me. You could argue to them about expats still paying taxes to the US based on their whole income rather than a portion of it

Like I said, it's the ridiculousness of claiming "every penny is taxed" when there's a literal dollar-amount exemption. I'm not addressing his broader point, because the other poster already did. I'm just addressing the "what you said is ridiculous" portion.
