Be careful calling yourselves citizens. A citizen is someone who owes a debt of service (or tribute) in return for an obligation of protection. Citizenship, as understood today, was a concept that originated in ancient Rome. Citizens were the only people who could own property or make legal contracts, vote in elections, or run for office. They were also afforded the full legal and military protections of the empire, they could demand a trial by jury, they could enact lawsuits, and could not be tortured or put to death for crimes (except treason). You could not legally be married in Rome unless you were a citizen.
Eventually the protections of citizenship were whittled down to nothing more than a title. The empire levied taxes so high that property ownership was essentially worthless. Property could be seized and taken for nearly any reason. Legal contracts became meaningless. The government's duty to protect citizens from physical harm also became null. As the empire was dying, they could no longer afford to pay soldiers to guard Roman citizens in the outer reaches of the the empire. Soon this sphere of protection would shrink to nothing. The guards would eventually prey on the citizens themselves in the form of mafia-like protection rackets.
The government is supposedly obligated to protect the rights and property of its citizens. Ask yourselves, just what sort of protections do you really have from the government? Are we preyed on more by common criminals, or by the government itself? Are your obligations as a citizen (in the form of taxes and compulsory services) being met equally by the duties of the government (protection of your person, your property, and your rights)?
Are we really citizens at all, and do we want to be?
