There is already Bitcoin with basically free Lightning Network transactions, so it's more like people vote with their wallets that they prefer (at least for now) paying this 3% tax instead of few bucks per year for channels opening/closing. And it works in the same internet market (real life and cards is a bit more complicated because of existing payment infrastructure).

So nobody force Americans to pay, actually, they do that voluntarily.
