That's a fair counterpoint for the tax thing in that individuals should not have the same exceptions for their privileges that governments have. I shouldn't be able to force taxes out of people like a government can. It's morally dubious for governments to force their citizenry into doing that due to place of birth, it should be seen the same if individuals are doing that.

I often argue that "innocent until proven guilty" is a government restriction that is put on the institution that doesn't quite fall on the individual. Because while the state says the O.J. Simpson is innocent by that standard, they cannot force the individual to agree with them. However, the individual is not legally allowed to take action in the government's stead on their belief the process failed.
