I think it would be reasonable to tax one of non-resident citizens or non-citizen residents, but not full taxation of both. And residence is far more of a choice than citizenship is.

I don't see a problem with taxing both, as long as the taxes are not equivalent. I don't think some minimal amount of taxation for the ability to rely on the U.S. and return whenever you want and to vote is too much to ask. That's also how you keep rich people from living outside the U.S. but traveling to it and conducting all business within it to avoid taxes.

Some kind of theoretical minimal citizenship taxation might be reasonable. The current US taxation regime certainly isn't.
