You want to tax a head of state? I laugh in Elon Musk. The Pope isn't paid by a salary by any US Source. He can't pay tax from income he got in his official duties as Pope. He enjoys diplomatic immunity which includes exemptions from US income taxes on earnings related to his official duties. Therefore, this story is just looking for gist to write to keep our tongues wagging 15 Likes |

I am not surprised, even Jesus Christ paid tax in the Bible. When he asked Peter to go open the mouth of the fish and he will see coins there and use it to pay. I am not surprised.

Yes, US citizens and companies are taxed based on their world wide income or profits. So, if I am American and I live as an expatraite in Nigeria, I am expected to pay another tax to the US after paying that for Nigeria. It is just stupid. That is why many Europeans who were born in the US and became citizens by default, renounce it. Over 5,000 Europeans do so each year. US companies to are taxed on their worldwide profits. The good thing is that the profits are only taxed when the money enters the US. Companies have lots of profits banked overseas. 5 Likes 1 Share |

What about Davido and all Nigerian dual US citizens who do not pay anything to the US government? What will the Pope be paying to Peru as a dual citizen?

Junk journalism... Pope Leo was slated to have a paycheck of $2500 monthly from official Vatican Sources. But then he says he wants to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor. He have given up on any form of salary or monetary incentives Stop writing trash here 4 Likes |
