I’m an American living in Germany. But while living in the US and being employed by a US company i was beholden (still am … but that’s a different story) to US taxes. By paying taxes I participate in and benefit from all public goods. I’m
Protected, free, etc etc.
In the same way if you want to sell to Apple customers until recently anyway you gotta abide the AppStore in the same way if I want to benefit from the American system I’m beholden to pay US taxes.
