One thing that has been left out is that "double taxation" is only the *default*, it is not actually that common. In most cases, tax treaties exist to solve the problem in more fair ways.
For instance, the US treaty with the UK means that a US citizen in the UK onlypays taxes to one or the other-- depending on how much he makes per year.
Still, it looks like the Republicans have started to target a group I belong to for more taxes. (They probably realized that we're less likely to vote.) This could indeed suck in the long-term. Blah.
