Well, that's the thing though. Half the time, the people that do it are fat cats that are trying to escape taxation while enjoying the benefits of being US Citizens. You can see why that would not sit well with some.
Although, granted, some are certainly legitimate entrepreneurs out and about, doing what they do... though even then I don't feel that's much of an excuse, either, because they got their start here in America with an American education. (Granted, that's not worth much when compared to other countries, but hey, there's still infrastructure and other public services they and their parents partook of.)
The only person that may have a leg to stand on would be folks like this London Mayor, and that's only out of sheer ignorance of the facts. (Hell, I didn't even know about it until now.) But then he went out of his way to draw attention to himself. Dumbass.
EDIT: Interesting Thought - the more and more you go down this road, the closer and closer the arguments get to sounding like a debate on Sovereign Citizens. And I hate those lunatics because they are a perversion of what it means to be American.
