But foreign only under private international law, i.e,
Conflict of Laws..."Full Faith and Credit" clause.
"While in the sense of public international law
the several states of the Union are neither foreign
to the United States nor to each other, they are
foreign in the field of private international law."
Robinson v. Norato, 162 A.L.R. 362, 71 R.I. 256,
43 A.2d 467 (1945).
: Yes, the several states are foreign with respect
: to each other, just as each is foreign with
: respect to the municipal jurisdiction of the
: federal government. Thus, income earned
: inside the several states, is "foreign earned
: income," for purposes of Form 2555.
: See the winning brief in Knox v. U.S. et al.,
: for proof.
