If you're REALLY looking to get away, you could take up citizenship in your new country an denounce your previous USA citizenship. An extreme option for sure but an option!

There is dual citizenship. Maybe I will become a citizen of Texas and the US. I hear that Texas is trying hard to succeed from the Union. I understand that their agreement to join the Union was predicated on the option of also leaving it if they chose to do so in the future.

Dual citizenship would mean paying double taxes. And Texas has been "trying" to leave ever since they joined. It'll never happen.

Your right about paying more taxes even in Texas.
Can I borrow your crystal ball.

If you're in the USA you'll probably pay lower taxes if you move to Texas; there's no state income tax there!

Rent or property taxes will take a big chunk of your cash in the big cities here in TX.

I'm Italian by the way. The only reason I'm keeping my passport is my ancestors are all Italian and it's one of the highest on the Passport Index. Anyway, do you tend to live where there are lower taxes or just where you feel free to roam? what are your criteria for an ideal place where to work and live?
