That situation is a complete piss-take, as Americans living and working ANYWHERE else in the world are subject to income taxes, PR is the only exemption, IN THE WORLD.

Wait, Americans have to pay tax to the American government even if they live and work outside of America? They would also be taxed by the country they are actually working in though right? Poor Americans

it shouldn't.  you can't be taxed from the same income in 2 different countries and even if you have to file federal income tax, there is a credit called foreign tax credit for that reason.
