I don't see anything wrong with subjecting yourself to which ever government you're living at any given time but I do see something terribly wrong with governments removing the ability to remove yourself from them. That's why I bitcoin. I can play their game, and will, to keep myself and my family fed and nourished, but if I get to a point of feeling personally oppressed, I will leave it all behind and take my capital with me. Because I can. I used to be a bit of an anarchist but through the study and use of bitcoin I have actually become a little more in favor of every type of government. They should exist for the people who want to use them and live that way. But there should always be choice, and bitcoin provides that to us all.
This is fine, but it begs the question of where you would go.
Especially with this rampant globalism going on.
I realize that there are special privileges in foreign countries as a foreigner.
Are those privileges (not rights) great enough?

Well, I'm fully aware that I would have to lower my standard of living a LOT right now, but I would go to one of the many small bitcoin circular economies and I would plug myself in. I am speculating that the size and amount of these economies will continue to grow. The Bitcoin Network benefits from every user and so does the bitcoin social network so I think we will see an increase of places that will welcome you with open arms if you're willing to spend/earn sats. I have no qualms with living under a palm tree.
