This is only a sign of a very real problem with how the government works, however, there is a simple and easy way to remain free while in the United States. Whenever you answer a question or do something you are told to do by ANY government official or officer of any kind simply say "under protest" before answering or doing it. Make sure and keep doing this, even when they tell you to stop saying it. Also, whenever you sign your name, it is equally important to ALWAYS write "under protest" above your signature before you sign. In a nutshell, the phrase "under protest" reserves your rights to be a sovereign. It is defined within the Black's Law Dictionary with the following definition: "An act done or a payment made under compulsion, while the actor or payor asserts he waves no rights, by making the payment or by doing the act."
