So according to British writer Samuel Johnson in his 1775 pamphlet, Taxation No Tyranny, the complaint of his statement appears to address that, one should not complain of the value of things that he left from the place he came from, just to transfer to a different place. It was your choice in leaving a country that you may only have little, but you have the "voice" (vote) as a citizen, and you exchanged it for a place of having great property but you have no vote. Hope this answer helps.
