When two people want to live their lives together, what do they get? state permission via a marriage license. Yes, some live under common law, but even then government intervenes and dictates they are married after cohabitating after a few years. In my state, it's two years.
When this couple births a child, what happens? The government marks the child with a number that we know as the social security number. If we don't have a social security number (or tax id), life becomes pretty difficult, if not impossible. No driver's license, no passport, no bank accounts, no use of credit card or any other financial instruments, including stocks and bonds. Think about it. Just about everything is tied to your social security number, and if you don't have one, it's almost impossible to buy or sell because you have to register everything--licenses, car, bank accounts, credit cards, etc--to it. Think about it.
So does this make us property of the state? Are we branded and tagged like animals? I don't know of many people who could live without government in some form or fashion. I suppose you could go out into the wilderness and live like Ted Kazinsky, but honestly, most people I know would quickly die without air conditioning, let alone having to hunt or gather their food, or even grow it.
Note: I'm not a total anarchist, but that government should serve the people, not the other way around. Government derives its powers from the people, not corrupt bureaucrats.
