These huge governments need to stop behaving like they own the citizens


Those Governments are operating purportedly on behalf of their citizens. It is not they that need to justify themselves worthy of recognition and the privilege of doing business within the jurisdiction.

As Mom used to put it: The world ain't gonna change to accommodate you. You must adapt to it. When in Rome; pick 1:

  Do as the Romans 

  embrace the consequences of   non-compliance 

  GTFO
The world is otherwise your Oyster, until it isn't. The larger part of Wisdom is learning to recognize and accept when it isn't.
