"And if the government prevents them from doing so?"

Name a local or state government in this country that does not allow its citizens to leave... Name a local or state government where the citizenry have delegated to it the power to secede from it's parent government on their behalf?

We are speaking in the hypothetical. But if you want to be technical - None of them allow you to remove yourself and you immobile property from thier jurisdiction - being forced to leave behind your property is NOT a valid remedy for injustices!

Again - why the insistance that I must delegate a power I reserve to myself and my fellow citizens?
