The law that isn't. It's only in your mind. It doesn't exist. I have spent years looking for it. It is not there. In fact most of the laws apply to US citizens with Foreign income or NON resident Aliens with US income. You will kill yourself to find anything that applies to US citizens with US income. They forgot us.
