I see my mistake, let me try it like this then.
The legal entity people are using on the W-4 is property of the US and has no rights to reserve because it was voluntarily registered or pledged to the US by them. The sovereign immunity comes into play because the legal entity is considered property of the US and subject to Congress.

Corporations are subject to Congress, period. Now if you can get away with it fine but that doesn't mean what you are doing won't get others in a bind.

As far as them not allowing you to do business as a U.S. corporation, its not a matter of them allowing you to do business as a U.S. entity or not--the entity IS a U.S. entity already, plain..simple.
If its not a U.S. entity then perhaps you have to do what non-U.S. persons do?
