How is that? You're born in a given society (country) and usually you never change societies, so there's no choice involved.

You can move to some non-urbanized area, and just cut communications with anybody else. (Yes, you can not completely cut away because of taxes, but you can to a huge degree.)

Almost nobody likes that option.
