(e) State, United States, and citizen
For purposes of this chapter—
(1) State
The term “State” includes the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa.
(2) United States
The term “United States” when used in a geographical sense includes the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa.
You might also point out that "United States" is not a familiar term of "The United States of America", the stile established by the Articles of Confederation for the union of the several States.

The Stile of this Confederacy shall be

"The United States of America". Common law says "things that are similar are not the same." Another source of Law tells you that "by their fruit you will recognize them". The name tells you little. How government acts speaks volumes.
