The state can take pretty much anything you give them. So don't give them anything you don't absolutely have to give them. In the US most citizens cede their lives to the state in many unnecessary ways. There are more things they can't take from you than things they can take. Others have given answers I agree with so I won't repeat them here.

Even those that claim to value freedom have believed the lie that the state is some all powerful god that can do anything they want to the plebs. This is a fiction. A massive one in fact.

Instead of focusing on what they take focus on your own sovereignty and control over your destiny. Don't say I can't. Say, how can I? Ponder the possibilities. Live with determination to be free in your mind, soul, and body. Be a beacon of freedom, sovereignty, and liberty in your family and community. This is the way.
