When one is standing on land owned by the USA one is a temporary subject to the written laws of the US. This changes as soon as one steps off that land.
When one becomes a citizen of the US “by process” it takes “a process” to renounce citizenship.
The process of becoming a US citizen is found in US written law, as follows:
Statute at large to become a US citizen is “The act of Congress of April 14, 1802, 2 Stat. 153, c, 28, Statute 2165,.
“An alien may be admitted to become a citizen of the United States in the following manner, and not otherwise.”
1. “He shall, two Years at least prior to his admission, declare before a proper court his intention to become a citizen of the United States, and to renounce his allegiance to the potentate or sovereignty of which he may be at the time a citizen or subject.”
2. “He shall, at the time of his application to be admitted, declare, on oath, before some one of the court above specified, that he will support the Constitution of the United States, and that he absolutely and entirely renounces and abjures all allegiance and fidelity to every foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty; and particularly, by name . to the prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of which he was before a citizen or subject, which proceedings shall be recorded by the clerk of the court.”
3. “It shall be made to appear to the satisfaction of the court admitting such alien that he has resided within the United States five years at least, and within the state or territory where such court is at the time held one year at least and that during that time he has behaved as a man of good moral character, attached to the principles of the Constitution of the United States, and well disposed to the good order and happiness of the same; but the oath of the resident shall in no case be allowed to prove his residence.”

“An alien may be admitted to become a citizen of the United States in the following manner, and not otherwise.” [‘not otherwise’ means by no other way]
1. “He shall, two Years at least prior to his admission, declare before a proper court [a US Court] his intention to become a citizen of the United States, and to renounce his allegiance to the potentate or sovereignty of which he may be at the time a citizen or subject [In my case I would need to renounce my free inhabitant standing].”
2. “He shall, at the time of his application to be admitted, declare, on oath, before some one of the court above specified, that he will support the Constitution of the United States, and that he absolutely and entirely renounces and abjures all allegiance and fidelity to every foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty; and particularly, by name . to the prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of which he was before a citizen or subject, which proceedings shall be recorded by the clerk of the court [I would suppose that such court must be of/on land owned by the USA].”
3. “It shall be made to appear to the satisfaction of the court admitting such alien that he has resided [lived on land owned by the US] within the United States five years at least, and within the state or territory where such court is at the time held one year at least and that during that time he has behaved as a man of good moral character, attached to the principles of the Constitution of the United States, and well disposed to the good order and happiness of the same; but the oath of the resident shall in no case be allowed to prove his residence.” [residency must be supported by more than just his word]

Therefore, all U.S. citizens [i.e. franchised citizens of the District of Columbia] residing in one of the states of the Union, are classified as property, as franchisee’s of the federal government, and as an “individual entity”. See Wheeling Steel Corp. v. Fox, 298 U.S. 193, 80 L.Ed. 1143, 56 S.Ct. 773.
Under the “Buck Act”, 4 U.S.C.S. Secs. 105-113, the federal government has created a “Federal area” within the boundaries of all the several states. (In Nebraska that consists of about 1.4% of the land as of 2018.)

Being subject to US written law can be a very confined life, at times in history it required little, today it takes close to 50% of you labor/earnings, and they could by mere congressional vote demand 100%.
Possibly if one is born on USA owned land one needs to renounce citizenship and become a subject to the class of free inhabitants, I am not sure, nor know how/where one would do this. -Paul Hansen-
(The above 1802 written law has been amended slightly.)
Much of the above came from this article by the INFORMER. (Look for the 1-4-12 Post)
