People always say "why can't I opt out?" but the reason they say it because they want to opt out while not moving country, or really changing anything about their lives, they just want to not pay taxes right where they are.
As though taxes, government and broader social organization has nothing at all to do with why the roads are paved and there's a municipal sewer system. Or why it seems like it's so hard to find a body of land on Earth where you aren't subject to another, possibly much worse government (military is funded by someone...)
If moving somewhere you wouldn't have to pay taxes always seems like it would be too hard, maybe think on that.
