RE: Governments and Modern Slavery

From what I know of US citizens, they actually have to pay a fee to revoke their US citizenship when they change nationality, otherwise the US still claims they owe taxes on their earnings. Some nations have agreements with the US in place to persue US expats for these taxes.

Ok, I didn't know that. - Anyway, it doesn't weaken my main argument that normally you are free to leave a nation but wouldn't have a place to go after that. - It's like terminating your rental contract. You can always do that, but as long as you don't have a new one (or at least a plan what to do after) you should probably just keep paying your landlord. :)

Yes, I agree, but from an anarchist perspective, this is basically coercion. One of the two things anarchists oppose.
