I disagree with you equivocating those that disagree with US finance laws to sovereign citizens. The fact is we are the only nation that have such far reaching laws that cross borders. It's completely ridiculous to think that what I earn and am taxed for in another country is also taxed in a country I don't physically have a presence.

The US government also historically goes to great lengths to protect its citizens abroad. For the most part, a US citizen sucked into a civil war or other terrible situation can show up at the embassy and everything will be okay. Might not be worth the amount of tax you pay but it's like expensive insurance in a way

  Historically is correct. They would do that in the 60s, 70s, and early 80s. They don't do that anymore. When the civil war in Yemen turned really bad UK, French, and other western countries evacuated their citizens. The US sent a reminder that US citizens should leave. Outside of military the US does very little for its international citizens.
