The easy response is that you can emigrate: something slaves, serfs, peons and other chattel are not permitted. There is also a ridiculous "[[Lost Cause]]"/[[Sovereign Citizens]] theme that the [[14th Amendment]] made all of us slaves to the federal government. | show=}} <!-- insert wiki page text here --> Because you can emigrate, working in one nation or another is YOUR VOLUNTARY CHOICE. The same as a choice of employer. Yes, the US gets a cut of your income: the same as if you worked for a temp agency. Libertarians are generally too stupid to realize that government isn't doing anything that capitalists don't do. What libertarians usually want is to be free-riders: they want all the benefits of living in the US without the costs. Free-riding is a basic capitalist principle: privatize the benefits and socialize the costs. Moreover, you have a voice in the taxation rates, which historically have varied greatly. <!-- DPL has problems with categories that have a single quote in them.
