Tax Leads Americans Abroad to Renounce U.S.

Leave a reply

Historically, small numbers of Americans have turned in their passports every year for political and economic reasons, with the numbers reaching a high of about 2,000 during the Vietnam War in the early 1970s.

But after Congress sharply raised taxes this year for many Americans living abroad, some international tax lawyers say they detect rising demand from citizens to renounce ties with the United States, the only developed country that taxes it citizens while they live overseas. Americans abroad are also taxed in the countries where they live.

JMU Lands ‘Perfect Companion’

Leave a reply

SRI Industries’ new partnership with James Madison University may be the catalyst for a wave of technological research and development similar to what occurred in California’s Silicon Valley in the 1960’s. More than 40 years ago, Stanford University in Palo Alto, Calif., began leasing some of its property to high-tech companies, SRI officials explained. Eastman Kodak Co., General Electric and Hewlett-Packard and SRI International all moved on campus. A few microchips later, the multibillion-dollar Silicon Valley was born.

Now, thousands of miles east of sunny California, SRI wants to again build that kind of relationship with a university, said SRI President and Chief Executive Officer Curtis Carlson. This time, JMU gets to be SRI’s bride and biotechnology will be the offspring.
