I don't think its nearly as easy to mov - be it villages, town, cities, states, or countries apart, moving is a big pain in the ass- as you gentlemen claim.

Most of the complications of intra-national moving in this country are not government-created, they're just basic resource limitations (problems with the fact that you have to physically move a bunch of stuff). I changed states and so far the only legal mumbo-jumbo I've done is get a new driver's license.

Contrast this with moving to Canada.

The relative ease of moving suggests that residence is based more on choice than limited options, and gives a lot more credit to local governments.
