I'd guess that most people living in Argentina are not, in fact, US citizens. If an Argentinian did a contract for an American company while living in Argentina, I'd expect them pay Argentinian rather than US income tax on that

Does that apply in the context of this thread? Presumably the person hired in Argentina is a Argentinian national, not a US citizen living in Argentina.

> US taxes all income you earn anywhere in the world

US taxes all income you anywhere in the world for US residents.

Incorrect. It taxes all income anywhere jn the world for US citizens and green card holders, _regardless_ of where they reside or the source of their income.

The original comment wasn't about US citizens but non-citizens which is what my comment was based on.
