Not to nitpick...
You actually do have the freedom to operate a motor vehicle without a license or registration. You do need to have an identifying tag on the vehicle, but that is all that is required. Believe it or not, every American has a sovereign right to travel. It's just that we're not told by the state that we have that right, and instead are presented with a "contract" (and yes, your signature on all of those documents down at the DMV constitutes a contract between you and the state). It's amazing what you can pass off to the public under the guise of authority.
