Every cop that has invaded my vessel, and some who just pass by, has
demanded to see the "registration" which is state issued. This shows you
have paid the protection racket money and the government knows of your
existence. This is in addition to the federal document, if any.
The impression I get is that all members of the establishment insist that
one be "registered" in some way or one will be considered to be an outlaw.
One's "un-registered" condition is indicative of the desire to be anonymous
to pursue criminal intent and/or avoid paying to "Ceasar that which is
Ceasar's".
In order to be "rootless" I suggest you would do best to have two personas,
one "registered" with official papers that looks legitimate, and the other
any way you want. The official persona will be used to interact with the
government and their agents, and the other to interact with the sort of
world you really want to be part of.

Thanks for all the mail drop information.
I was also wondering, if a person were willing to give up driving and
voting and wasn't particularly interested in regular mail, how much
disconnecting from the establishment could he do before the establishment
took exception?
I know that I would want to pay income taxes. Does anyone know if this
requires an address? When I was in the navy I [sometimes] filed state
income tax forms, but I wasn't required to pay any tax since I spent no and
had no income in time in the state for which I filed. And I'm pretty sure I
didn't file with any state some years.
Is it functionally illegal not to live in a particular "place".
