> I think most countries will stop demanding taxes from you if you legitimately move to another country

Most is an understatement. Last I checked, it was all countries, except the US and the two bastions of freedom that are Eritrea and the Soviet Union (when it existed).

> The US doesn’t have such a system, but the way it works most expats won’t end up paying any taxes if they leave the states. Though they’ll still need to file a return.

Won't end up paying any taxes on earned income you mean. For any other income, it's a damn nightmare.
