Are there tax or other issues with having two citizenships?

No tax issues that I'm aware of. US has a tax treaty with Italy and most EU countries

Not sure why anyone would want to do this unless they have business there.
Also, I have heard that there is a movement to start taxing citizens who earn money outside of the country. So if you get the citizenship, earn money in the US, they want to tax that money.
Question- do you kneel when you hear the American pledge of allegiance ?

Why not? You never know when dual citizenship might come in handy.
The only real downside is still being a us citizen if you never plan on coming back because of taxes.

Why? Italy is worse than Louisiana.
Sicily is, definitely. Northern Italy has densely populated, economically diverse cities with more job opportunities.
My great-grandfather came from Sicily to Louisiana on a work-visa in the 1890s. Louisiana was very similar to Sicily due to the fact that both places relied heavily on an agrarian economy that involved manual labor. Sicilians were very used to working manual labor jobs which is why so many of them came to Louisiana.

I find this to be awesome - Italy and Portugal will grant you citizenship if you can prove your ancestors came from there
However, I’m neither.
There was a bill in the Irish parliament to grant citizenship to people whose ancestors left during the famine and could prove it.
My paperwork is ready.

My ancestors are Irish, British and Scottish, so I need one of those countries to do this, although I'm scared they want to tax the hell out of me.

Is this an EU wide thing or just Italy.
Not sure about EU wide but sounds like others do the same. Criteria may change by country though.
I have a friend whose kids learned they may be able to do this in their Spanish class for Spain, so now they are looking into it thru his wifes Latina heritage. Though she apparently is a dual US/Latin American country citizen already, so not sure if the wife will be able to do this but the kids may. Sounds like my buddy is to far removed on the UK side.
I guess my question here is what's the catch. Why are these nations doing this? Is it new thing or been around for awhile but just now getting popular?
