Oh shit.  It really is the empire.

According to http://www.techvisas.com/taxation.htm
	Taxation of Aliens who Have Departed - Anti-Expatriation
	Rules.

	Aliens who live in the U.S. as residents, irrespective of
	visa status, face special anti-expatriation rules. Such
	rules were formerly applied only to U.S. citizens who
	cancelled their U.S. citizenship in order to be free of
	U.S. gift and estate taxes. As a result, termination of
	lawful permanent resident status after several years will
	result in continuing liability of the foreigners gifts
	and patrimony (assets) to U.S. probate and estate taxes
	for 10 years after such termination
