If you want to be reductionist, you can argue that since almost all of the world's land, people, resources, and equipment are under the control of some government, it's hard for anything to be independent of them.

I don't think that's reductionist. I think that's a reasonable statement. It is indeed hard for anything to be independent of government control, except perhaps in failed states. Which is sort-of the definition of a failed state.
