<div>P R E V I E W<div> So getting rid of your
|
||
National Citizenship, while very important, is only a first step, and there are
|
||
numerous other invisible contracts that you need to concern yourselves with, if
|
||
you are to leave the Bolshevik Income Tax grab without leaving any lingering
|
||
illicit Equity trail behind you. [576]
|
||
<div>P R E V I E W<div>
|
||
Next, we turn now and discuss a layer of invisible contract that is rarely
|
||
addressed, thought of, or treated as the pure contract that it is really is:
|
||
National Citizenship. [506]
|
||
[506]<div> "The United
|
||
States chose to base its tax jurisdiction on Citizenship from the inception of
|
||
the Income Tax in 1913."
|
||
- Citizenship as a Jurisdictional Basis for Taxation:
|
||
Section 911 and the Foreign Source Income Experience
|
||
by John Christie, 8 Brooklyn Journal of International Law
|
||
109, at 109 (1982). Such a seemingly easy STATEMENT for someone
|
||
to make, yet pulling together all of the relevant factors on Citizenship is
|
||
difficult because they are not all located in one single place; and there
|
||
exists no simple, explicit, and blunt statement or Supreme Court ruling stating
|
||
so. Yet when everything is assembled there is a large collection of Federal
|
||
dribblings originating from disorganized DICTA located in Court Opinions,
|
||
Congressional enactments, and in Administrative LEX, which when analyzed
|
||
collectively as a whole, form a revealing picture of the surprises that
|
||
Citizens are really in for.
|
||
<div>[506]
|
||
As a point of beginning, it is perhaps most easy to think of Citizenship in
|
||
terms of joining a Country Club: You sign up, pay dues, enjoy the benefits
|
||
offered by the House, you elect management, and you are exposed to liability to
|
||
be fined for no more than technical infractions to House Rules [without any
|
||
damages]. [507]
|
||
[507]<div> The United
|
||
States Supreme Court once drew a parallel between CITIZENSHIP and membership in
|
||
an association so well, that it triggered my analogy to that of joining a
|
||
Country Club:
|
||
"... Each of the persons associated becomes a member of the nation
|
||
formed by the association. He owes it allegiance and is entitled to its
|
||
protection. Allegiance and protection are, in this connection reciprocal
|
||
obligations. The one is a compensation or the other; allegiance for protection
|
||
and protection for allegiance.
|
||
"For convenience it has been found necessary to give a name to this
|
||
membership. The object is to designate by title the person and the relation he
|
||
bears to the nation. For this purpose the words "subject," "inhabitant" and
|
||
"citizen" have been used, and the choice between them is sometimes made to
|
||
depend upon the form of the Government. Citizen is now more commonly employed,
|
||
however, and as it has been considered better suited to the description of one
|
||
living under a Republican Government, it was adopted by nearly all of the
|
||
States upon their separation from Great Britain, and was afterwards adopted in
|
||
the ARTICLES OF CONFEDERATION and in the Constitution of the United States.
|
||
When used in this sense it is understood as conveying the idea of membership of
|
||
a nation, and nothing more."
|
||
- MINOR VS. HAPPERSETT, 88 U.S. 161, at 166 (1874). Here in MINOR, the
|
||
Supreme Court relates Citizenship to an association; while I have chosen
|
||
COUNTRY CLUB due to the easier relational image created by voluntarily joining
|
||
an institution that offers special and unique benefits available to members
|
||
only. Some of those special benefits offered are very important to some members
|
||
(I have many stories to tell of business deals and business introductions made
|
||
on golf courses), while to others, the Country Club is just a nice place to be
|
||
for lunch. <div>[507]
|
||
The procedure for entering into a Country Club Membership contract differs
|
||
quite a bit from the Citizenship Contract, in the sense that while trying to
|
||
join a Country Club, you first have to go to the Management, present
|
||
credentials, and then request Membership; whereas with the King, everyone is
|
||
presumed automatically to be Members, and so now you have to argue your Case
|
||
that you are not a Member. [508]
|
||
[508]<div> This shift
|
||
of burden originates with a slice of LEX the King's Scribes once enacted:
|
||
"The following shall be nationals and Citizens of the United States at
|
||
birth:
|
||
1) A person born in the United States, AND SUBJECT TO ITS JURISDICTION
|
||
thereof;"
|
||
- Title 8, Section 1401 ["Nationality and Naturalization"] Section 1401
|
||
then continues on with similar hooks planted into American Indians, Eskimos,
|
||
persons born outside the United States, persons of unknown parentage, etc.
|
||
Notice the phrase AND SUBJECT TO ITS JURISDICTION; not all individuals born in
|
||
the United States are automatically Citizens, so not all individuals born in
|
||
the United States fall under the house jurisdiction of the King and his
|
||
adhesive tentacles of Equity Jurisdiction. An Attorney General once said that:
|
||
"... our Constitution, in speaking of NATURAL-BORN CITIZENS, uses no
|
||
affirmative language to make them such, but only recognizes and reaffirms the
|
||
universal Principle, common to all nations, and as old as political society,
|
||
that the people born in a country do constitute the nation, and, as
|
||
individuals, are NATURAL members of the body politic.
|
||
"If this be a true Principle, and I do not doubt it, it follows that
|
||
every person born in the Country is, at the moment of birth, PRIMA FACIE a
|
||
Citizen; and he who would deny it must take upon himself the burden of proving
|
||
some great disenfranchisement strong enough to override the "NATURAL-BORN"
|
||
right as recognized by the Constitution in terms the most simple and
|
||
comprehensive, and without any reference to race or color, or other accidental
|
||
circumstance.
|
||
"That NATIVITY furnishes the rule, both of duty and of right, as
|
||
between the individual and the Government, is a historical and political truth
|
||
so old and so universally accepted that it is needless to prove it by
|
||
authority...
|
||
"In every civilized Country, the individual is BORN to duties and
|
||
rights, the duty of allegiance and the right to protection; and these are
|
||
correlative obligations, the one the price of the other, and they constitute
|
||
the all-sufficient bond of union between individual and his Country; and the
|
||
Country he is born in is, PRIMA FACIE, his Country. In most countries the old
|
||
law was broadly laid down that this natural connection between the individual
|
||
and his native country was perpetual; at least, that the tie was indissoluble
|
||
by the act of the subject alone...
|
||
"But that law of the perpetuity of allegiance is now changed..."
|
||
[meaning Americans can dissolve the tie whenever they feel like it, a severance
|
||
not possible under the old Britannic rule of Kings.]
|
||
- Edward Bates, United States Attorney General, in ["Citizenship"], 10
|
||
Opinions of the Attorney General 382 at 394, [W.H. & O.H. Morrison, Washington
|
||
(1868)]. <div>[508]
|
||
But once we are beyond that initial point of entrance into the contract, then
|
||
nothing whatsoever changes in the contractual rights or duties involved when we
|
||
transfer ourselves from Membership in a Country Club setting over to American
|
||
Citizenship, as contracts govern both relationships.
|
||
Earlier, I mentioned that the 14th Amendment offers invisible benefits that
|
||
Citizens have been deemed by Federal Judges to have accepted by their silence
|
||
(since anything but silence is very consistent with a person's wanting
|
||
Citizenship), and so the 14th Amendment then and there creates a Citizenship
|
||
Contract. Yes, there are special benefits to be had from the 14th Amendment.
|
||
[509]
|
||
[509]<div> "Since the
|
||
14th Amendment makes one a Citizen of the state where ever he resides, the fact
|
||
of residence creates universally recognized reciprocal duties of protection by
|
||
the state and of allegiance and support by the Citizen. The latter obviously
|
||
includes a duty to pay taxes, and their nature and measure is largely a
|
||
political matter."
|
||
- MILLER BROTHERS VS. MARYLAND, 347 U.S. 340, at 345
|
||
(1954).
|
||
<div>[509]
|
||
So although the 14th Amendment creates benefits proprietary to Citizenship,
|
||
those are not the only Citizenship benefits that you need to concern yourself
|
||
with. Many Tax Protestors and Patriots are aware of the 14th Amendment story,
|
||
and accordingly counsel their students to file NOTICES OF BREACH OF CONTRACT
|
||
and the like, and other hybrid unilateral declarations of RECESSION, in an
|
||
attempt to remove themselves as persons attached to the 14th Amendment. Those
|
||
students are then taught, quite erroneously, that since the United States
|
||
derives its taxing power from the 14th Amendment, therefore, once an Individual
|
||
has severed his relationship from the 14th Amendment, the student no longer
|
||
need concern himself with any federal Income Tax liability, or any state tax
|
||
liability. These folks preach the theory that MILLER BROTHERS VS. MARYLAND,
|
||
[510]
|
||
[510]<div> 347 U.S.
|
||
340, at 345 (1954).
|
||
<div>[510]
|
||
stands for the proposition that States derive their taxing and regulatory
|
||
jurisdiction from the 14th Amendment -- a particularly stupid conclusion to
|
||
arrive at since such a statement means that prior to the 14th Amendment there
|
||
were no State taxes or regulatory jurisdictions; and that is a factually
|
||
defective point of beginning to commence any legal analysis. [511]
|
||
[511]<div> For
|
||
example, some states required that auctioneers possess licenses in the early
|
||
1800's, long before the 14th Amendment ever made its appearance. Joseph Story
|
||
mentions this in III Commentaries on the Constitution, at page 483, ["Powers of
|
||
Congress - Taxes"], (Cambridge, 1833). This little regulatory jurisdiction
|
||
existed long before either the Civil War or any of the so called Reconstruction
|
||
Amendments [the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments] made their appearance; and
|
||
since the States did not need the 14th Amendment then to enact regulatory
|
||
jurisdictions, the States do not need the 14th Amendment to enact regulatory
|
||
jurisdictions, and your relational status to the 14th Amendment is irrelevant
|
||
in determining your attachment to regulatory jurisdictions.
|
||
<div>[511]
|
||
This view of legal liability propagated by Protestors is baneful, and
|
||
replicates the MODUS OPERANDI of Lucifer when he propagates to his students
|
||
many things which are technically accurate of and by themselves, but then he
|
||
teaches expansive conclusions which are defective. Lucifer counsels his
|
||
followers to get ready to justify their actions at the Last Day, an alluring
|
||
preventative move that intellectuals find brilliant and intriguing background
|
||
advice; so now Lucifer has their attention. [512]
|
||
[512]<div> When some
|
||
folks emphasize the value to you of PREVENTION, what they are also saying is
|
||
that they realize that it is beneficial for folks to occasionally look up and
|
||
ahead once in a while; and out of such a vision into the future, unpleasant
|
||
circumstances can be deflected from making their appearance (the avoidance of a
|
||
negative), as well as great and fabulous circumstances can and will come to
|
||
pass (by planning for a positive). These reasons explain why an occasional
|
||
glimpse into one's own future is very much an instrument for intellectual
|
||
conquest and has such an alluring aura of mystique about it -- generating an
|
||
atmosphere of success that intrigues INTELLECTUALS so much -- who go for all
|
||
they can grab. Gremlins have taken cognizance of this high-powered look ahead
|
||
instrument (also called PLANNING), and have experienced impressive benefits
|
||
from it:
|
||
"As I have already pointed out, the true speculator is one who observes
|
||
the future and acts before it occurs. Like a surgeon, he must be able to search
|
||
through a mass of complex and contradictory details to [get to] the significant
|
||
facts. Then, still like the surgeon, he must be able to operate coldly,
|
||
clearly, and skillfully on the basis of the facts before him.
|
||
"What makes this task of fact finding so difficult is that in the stock
|
||
market the facts of any situation come to us through a curtain of human
|
||
emotions. What drives the prices of stocks up or down is not impersonal
|
||
economic forces or changing events but the human reactions to these happenings.
|
||
The constant problem of the speculator or analyst is how to disentangle the
|
||
cold, hard economic facts from the rather warm feelings of the people dealing
|
||
with these facts.
|
||
"Few things are more difficult to do. The main obstacle lies in
|
||
disentangling ourselves from our own emotions."
|
||
- Gremlin Bernard Baruch in Baruch: My Own Story,
|
||
at 248 [Henry Holt and Company, New York (1957)]. On the
|
||
following pages in this book [which is his autobiography], Bernard Baruch gives
|
||
two stores from his business dealings exemplifying why and how he deemed it so
|
||
extremely important to approach the task of fact finding free of emotions --
|
||
and the reason is because often the facts that are the answers to what we are
|
||
searching for are not found where we thought they might be, and when the
|
||
answers arrived they were not presented to us under circumstances that we
|
||
thought we would be expecting. Since our emotions color our judgment
|
||
constantly, merely controlling emotions until after we have been steeped with
|
||
an enlarged basis of factual knowledge to exercise judgment on, then escalates
|
||
dramatically the caliber of judgment that can be exercised. Gremlin Bernard
|
||
Baruch, a looter EXTRAORDINAIRE, perhaps one of the greatest American business
|
||
speculators of all time -- who started from scratch and would up controlling at
|
||
one time a significant percentage supply of the world's silver -- concluded his
|
||
second business example with some advice presented in the form of a STATEMENT:
|
||
"Experts will step in where even fools fear to tread."
|
||
- Bernard Baruch, id., at page 253 Why will experts step in where fools
|
||
fear to tread? The answer lies in examining what characteristic separates the
|
||
expert from the fool: Simple lack of factual knowledge, acquired in part
|
||
experientially, which is often corrected in the future. Tax and Highway
|
||
Contract Protestors searching for that elusive SILVER BULLET out there will
|
||
find it -- of all places -- resting with themselves; and they will also find,
|
||
in an unexpected place, an institution functioning as an accessory instrument
|
||
offering them assistance to accomplish the most NOBLE and GREAT objectives that
|
||
the mind can imagine -- an ecclesiastical institution that has always been
|
||
there during your life, but whose potential beneficial significance was tossed
|
||
aside and ignored due to overruling emotional intervention. Yes, OVERCOMING
|
||
YOUR OWN EMOTIONS is a difficult task as high-powered imp Bernard Baruch
|
||
related so well to a setting involving the intense pursuit of commercial
|
||
enrichment. Where there are difficult tasks, there also lies impressive
|
||
benefits not otherwise obtainable; Celestial benefits whose reception then
|
||
requires a forward glimpse into the future, now. Those Celestial Benefits will
|
||
be acquired then through the correlative requisite behavioral changes made at
|
||
the present time -- beneficial changes that cannot be made if that alluring
|
||
look ahead glimpse into the future that INTELLECTUALS and imps appreciate the
|
||
value of such much, was not made at the present time. When we make that look
|
||
ahead glimpse into the future, we ask ourselves a QUESTION: Do I really want to
|
||
leave this Estate without replacement Covenants?
|
||
<div>[512]
|
||
Then Lucifer continues on (also quite technically correct), that all of their
|
||
behavior down here should be so organized as to be "justifiable" before Father
|
||
at the Last Day; this too is correct, as Father will be soliciting our feelings
|
||
at the Last Day. But just one tiny problem surfaces for the world's Gremlins to
|
||
consider as they dance the jig in ecstacy over the prospects of being able to
|
||
get away with murder, mischief, and mayhem down here: An invisible Contract
|
||
that Father extracted out of us all before we came down here. So yes, although
|
||
you can "justify" your acts to Father if you want to, that justification is not
|
||
relevant to Father in his judgment decision making. Only the terms of the
|
||
Contract will be of interest to Father; and back in the First Estate, everyone
|
||
was once on their knees before Father, uttering from their own tongues, in a
|
||
Heavenly angelic language we all spoke then, the terms of the Contract we all
|
||
would later be judged by. So, yes, you will be given the opportunity to justify
|
||
your abominations before Father if you want to, but your justifications
|
||
sounding in Tort are not going to be taken into consideration by Father and you
|
||
Gremlins out there are damaging and deceiving yourselves. And in a very similar
|
||
way, many Tax Protestors are coaching their followers to concern themselves
|
||
with the 14th Amendment -- a very accurate and correct statement, of and by
|
||
itself. [513]
|
||
[513]<div> The way to
|
||
correctly read Supreme Court rulings on 14th Amendment taxation questions is to
|
||
keep an eye on what the 14th Amendment did in the area of restraining
|
||
reciprocity expectations political jurisdictions created when throwing benefits
|
||
at folks. The 14th Amendment prohibited double taxation, and no more. DOUBLE
|
||
TAXATION is the layering of a plurality of taxes on the same economic asset or
|
||
legal right by competing jurisdictions. In some factual settings, the
|
||
jurisdiction to tax an economic asset actually belongs to several states, but
|
||
should be conceded to only one State for the exercise of taxation jurisdiction.
|
||
See JURISDICTION TO TAX UNDER THE FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT in Notes, 25 Georgetown
|
||
Law Journal 448 (1937).
|
||
<div>[513]
|
||
But the conclusions those Tax Protestors draw, that termination of the adhesive
|
||
King's Equity Jurisdiction that the 14th Amendment attaches is the only thing
|
||
they need concern themselves with, is incorrect. 14th Amendment pleading,
|
||
standing alone by itself, doesn't vitiate anyone's state or federal Income Tax
|
||
liability -- it never has, and it never will. The legal argument I hear many
|
||
folks throw at Federal Judges, that they are a COMMON LAW CITIZEN, or a
|
||
PREAMBLE CITIZEN, and not a 14TH AMENDMENT CITIZEN, is patently stupid, and
|
||
carries no weight, merit, or attractiveness before Federal Judges; and for very
|
||
good reasons: Because all Citizens of the United States are acceptants of that
|
||
profile of juristic benefits that the King is offering, and these benefits are
|
||
offered by the King regardless of the claimed COMMON LAW or PREAMBLE
|
||
classification status. And so correlatively, since those juristic benefits are
|
||
accepted by all United States Citizens regardless of the claimed COMMON LAW or
|
||
so-called PREAMBLE jurisdictional origin of the classification of Citizenship
|
||
(distinctions that Citizenship Contract Protestors like to make and argue),
|
||
these distinctions mean absolutely nothing in important areas involving Tax and
|
||
Military Conscription reciprocity expectations the King maintains on his
|
||
Citizens. [514]
|
||
[514]<div> The extent
|
||
to which Juristic Institutions should be restrained in the placement of
|
||
tortious covenants within adhesive contracts heavily skewed towards Government
|
||
like Citizenship, has been an article of discussion since the founding days of
|
||
the Republic:
|
||
"How in a Republican regime, is the supremacy of the private,
|
||
self-regarding sphere in the life of each Citizen to be reconciled with the
|
||
obligation of the People at large to perform the public-regarding duties of
|
||
Citizenship? It is interesting that [James] Wilson did not propose to solve
|
||
this problem by blinking at the magnitude of the apparent dilemma. More vividly
|
||
even than Locke himself, Wilson stated his liberal creed that "domestic
|
||
society," that is, the private social life of each individual, must be deemed
|
||
intrinsically superior in dignity to all public matters, including Law and
|
||
Government."
|
||
- Stephen Conrad discussing the views of one of our Founding Fathers,
|
||
in CITIZENSHIP AND COMMON SENSE IN JAMES WILSON'S REPUBLICAN THEORY, 8 Supreme
|
||
Court Review at 383 [University of Chicago Press, Chicago (1984)].
|
||
<div>[514]
|
||
There is no single place I can point folks to and say "Here, Citizens, are your
|
||
benefits." [515]
|
||
[515]<div> The same
|
||
frustrations and headaches that I have gone through trying to get at the very
|
||
bottom of just what those specific benefits are that the King is offering to
|
||
his Citizens, is the same frustration [if FRUSTRATION is the word] that others
|
||
have experienced in the past -- because the definition of American Citizenship
|
||
and the correlative concise presentation of the benefits of American
|
||
Citizenship, simply does not exist. In a previous day and era, an Attorney
|
||
General of the United States once expressed similar reservations:
|
||
"Who is a Citizen? What constitutes a Citizen of the United States? I
|
||
have often been pained by the fruitless search in our law books and the records
|
||
of the courts, for a clear and satisfactory definition of the phrase CITIZEN OF
|
||
THE UNITED STATES. I find no such definition, no authoritative establishment of
|
||
the meaning of the phrase, neither by a course of judicial decisions in our
|
||
courts, nor by the continued and consentaneous action of the different branches
|
||
of our political Government. For aught I see to the contrary, the subject is
|
||
now as little understood in its details and elements, and the question as open
|
||
to arguments and speculative criticism, as it was at the beginning of the
|
||
Government. Eighty years of practical enjoyment of Citizenship, under the
|
||
Constitution, have not sufficed to teach us either the exact meaning of the
|
||
word, or the constituent elements of the thing we prize so highly."
|
||
- Edward Bates, United States Attorney General ["Citizenship"], in 10
|
||
OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL 382 at 383 [W.H. & O.H. Morrison, Washington
|
||
(1868)].
|
||
The reason why I have had such headaches getting to the very bottom of
|
||
Citizenship is because the King's boy's claim up tight and refuse to talk about
|
||
this subject matter. A Deputy United States Attorney in the Department of
|
||
Justice in Washington once turned me off but quick when I asked for a simple
|
||
answer to a simple question: What are the benefits you give to American
|
||
Citizens? When I once had a conversation with a Federal Judge, he went through
|
||
muscular distortions in his face when I asked him the same simple question.
|
||
They know exactly what we are up to, and they are not about to assist or
|
||
facilitate our depriving them of revenue; a good snortation representing how
|
||
Federal Judges think in this area was once penned by the Supreme Court:
|
||
"The Citizen who fails to pay his taxes or to abide by the law
|
||
safeguarding the integrity of elections deals a dangerous blow to his country."
|
||
- PEREZ VS. BROWNELL, 356 U.S. 44, at 92 (1958).
|
||
Moments earlier in that conversation I had with the Judge, the Judge
|
||
was friendly and spoke very knowledgeably about the location of Citizenship
|
||
benefits [as well they should know the location of benefits because Federal
|
||
Judges are steeped in benefit justification in those seminars of theirs], but
|
||
now the atmosphere quickly chilled when I presented him with an explicit
|
||
inquiry on the specific identification of Citizenship benefits, and the Judge
|
||
very quickly terminated the conversation. Those benefits of Citizenship are all
|
||
listed and neatly presented to Federal Judges in that BENCH BOOK of theirs;
|
||
this is important material for Federal Judges to know since the King deems it
|
||
extremely important that Judges feel justified and comfortable CRACKING
|
||
Protestors under the Citizenship Contract; and this is also the real meaning
|
||
behind an occasional blurb emanating down from the bench that "you've accepted
|
||
a benefit [snort!]." What few words the Judge is saying is a fractured piece
|
||
of the total contract pie, as contracts are properly in effect whenever
|
||
benefits offered conditionally [offered with a hook in them] were accepted by
|
||
you; so the Judge's short blurb about accepting benefits is a reference to the
|
||
fact that you are patently BLACK AND WHITE wrong -- caught in the very act of
|
||
contract defilement. But just because the Judge remains silent on the existence
|
||
of the retained expectations of reciprocity that the King holds, and that a
|
||
contract is in effect, does not annul the existence of the contract. Very
|
||
rarely in life in any setting such as science, business, the law, or commerce,
|
||
does anyone ever go into prolixitous elucidations when explaining error or
|
||
justifying something. But the juristic contract is there, the explanation [or
|
||
here in a Courtroom, the snortation] is optional, and the fact that the

contract is invisible to you does not vitiate your liability when the contract
|
||
comes up for review [a feature of Nature every single person who ever lived on
|

the face of the Earth will become very well acquainted with at the Last Day].
|
||
<div>[515]
|
||
Even listings of benefits in the dicta of Supreme Court rulings are fractured
|
||
and incomplete. [516]
|
||
[516]<div> For example,
|
||
in UNITED STATES VS. MATHESON [532 F.2nd 809 (1976)], the Second Circuit
|
||
mentioned that some of those benefits received by a Mrs. Burns that were
|
||
attributable to her United States Citizenship were the issuance of her
|
||
Passport, the issuance of a license on her yacht by the United States Coast
|
||
Guard, and the benefit of standing assistance offered by an American foreign
|
||
diplomatic consular office, since she had registered as a Citizen with the
|
||
United States Mission [although such registration is not necessary to trigger
|
||
assistance of diplomatic consular offices when requested]. See UNITED STATES
|
||
VS. MATHESON, id., at 819. Remember that the Law is always justified, and the
|
||
acceptance of benefits, however flaky those benefits are in substance, do
|
||
correctly justify the King's retention of expectations of financial
|
||
reciprocity. <div>[516]
|
||
And the Congress is largely the same. [517]
|
||
[517]<div> There is no
|
||
statute existing anywhere that presents a composite blended profile of all
|
||
benefits inuring to Citizens of the United States. When searching through
|
||
Congressional documents at just a Committee Hearing level, for perhaps some
|
||
small list of benefits that may have slipped out here or there, the only
|
||
discussion of benefits was characterizes as RIGHTS, and then treated as a
|
||
unitary subject [see CITIZENS GUIDE TO INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS UNDER THE CONSTITUTION
|
||
OF THE UNITED STATES, Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights, Committee on the
|
||
Judiciary, United States Senate, 94th Congress, Second Session (October, 1970),
|
||
which largely discusses those Clauses in the Constitution that restrain
|
||
Government Tortfeasance (which although such restrainments are benefits in a
|
||
sense, the restrainment of the King's own prospective Tortfeasance is not the
|
||
character of benefits whose acceptance by Citizens enables expectations of
|
||
reciprocity to operate on in the formation of juristic contracts)].
|
||
<div>[517]
|
||
Some of the juristic benefits that the King is offering to his Citizens
|
||
originate in the Constitution, where these benefits are inferred by Federal
|
||
Judges from certain wording and phrases in that Majestic Document; [518]
|
||
[518]<div> For certain
|
||
limited purposes, Federal Judges view the Constitution in its aggregate as
|
||
being a collection of senior statutes, differing only from ordinary statutes in
|
||
the sense that the Constitutions's pronouncements are more tactically difficult
|
||
to enact and repeal.
|
||
<div>[518]
|
||
other benefits the King is offering find their home nestled in his pile of LEX,
|
||
other benefits are located in still another layer of administrative LEX called
|
||
the CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS; and still other benefits do not explicitly
|
||
appear anywhere in the King's statutes, but are defined in a wide ranging
|
||
multiplicity of court rulings. When we posses that factual knowledge contained
|
||
in those court rulings, then the cryptic phrases appearing in some offbeat
|
||
slice of LEX come alive and make a great deal of sense. [519]
|
||
[519]<div> For example,
|
||
one of the judicially defined benefits of American Citizenship is the right to
|
||
sue and be sued in Federal and State Courts in the United States:
|
||
"George Bird... [having]... fulfilled the conditions which, under law
|
||
enacted by Congress, entitle him to all the rights, privileges, [benefits,] and
|
||
immunities of Citizenship. He is a Citizen of the United States, and entitled,
|
||
equally with all other Citizens, to make lawful use of his own property, and to
|
||
prosecute and defend in the courts of this state and in the courts of the
|
||
United States actions affecting his legal rights with respect to property, and
|
||
to make [commercial] contracts [I will discuss this later]..."
|
||
- BIRD VS. TERRY, 129 Federal 472, at 477 (1903). With the right to sue
|
||
and be sued in Federal and State Courts being a benefit to Citizens, now the
|
||
following cryptic words in the Civil Rights statutes [giving Blacks Citizenship
|
||
benefits that only Whites enjoyed before the Civil War], now come alive with
|
||
meaning:
|
||
"Equal Just under the Law:
|
||
"All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall have
|
||
the same right in every State and Territory to make and enforce contracts [I
|
||
will discuss this very important benefit later], TO SUE, BE PARTIES, GIVE
|
||
EVIDENCE, and to the full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the
|
||
security of persons and property as is enjoyed by white Citizens..."
|
||
- Title 42, Section 1981 ["Civil Rights"] (1870). Notice how the use of
|
||
the Courtroom as an instrument of Government to sue someone with is deemed to
|
||
be a benefit -- and yes, it is a benefit; the absence of which would place a
|
||
lot of Protestors out of business. But the King offers out his benefit with
|
||
latent hooks of reciprocity adhesively attached thereto; just like fish
|
||
thinking that they have finished their evening meal by swallowing that
|
||
attractive piece of meat over there, unknown to the fish is the fact that an
|
||
invisible hook awaits whoever goes after that bait. So now let us continue on
|
||
with Section 1981: Having defined some benefits, now the King's Scribes plant
|
||
the hook of reciprocity for those who swallow and accept the King's benefits:
|
||
"[those Blacks, now turned Citizens, as just mentioned above]... shall
|
||
be subject to like punishment, pains, penalties, taxes, licenses, and exactions
|
||
of every kind, and no other."
|
||
- The balance of Title 42, Section 1981. Yes, Citizenship is a
|
||
Contract: Juristic benefits are offered with latent hooks of reciprocity lying
|
||
in wait for those who have silently accepted the King's benefits. And Tax and
|
||
Draft Protestors will continue to loose, and will continue to snicker at the
|
||
wrong people [hard working Judges] in total error, when the fact of the matter
|
||
is that it is their boosting of their Citizenship status which is in fact the
|
||
very juristic contract that the Federal Judges use to CRACK Protestors with.
|
||
...The benefit of Citizenship allowing those PERSONS to sue in Federal Courts
|
||
once surfaced in HAMMERSTEIN VS. LYNE as a jurisdictional question, since one
|
||
of the statutes in Title 28 confers jurisdiction to Federal District Courts to
|
||
hear diversity cases involving CITIZENS in different States:
|
||
"In order to give jurisdiction to the Courts of the United States, the
|
||
Citizenship of the party must be founded on a change of domicile and permanent
|
||
residence in the State to which he may have removed from another State. Mere
|
||
residence is PRIMA FACIE evidence of such change, although, when it is
|
||
explained and shown to have been for temporary purposes, the presumption is
|
||
destroyed."
|
||
- HAMMERSTEIN VS. LYNE, 200 Federal 165, at 169 (1912).
|
||
<div>[519]
|
||
Some benefits of Citizenship are proprietary and the distribution of those
|
||
benefits are limited to identifiable groups, for example, such as the elective
|
||
franchise. [520]
|
||
[520]<div> See
|
||
ENFRANCHISEMENT AND CITIZENSHIP by Edward J. Pierce [Roberts Brothers, Boston
|
||
(1896) {Harvard University, WIDENER LIBRARY, Cambridge, Massachusetts}]. Even
|
||
many of the covenant terms of the Country Club Contract and the Citizenship
|
||
Contract are identical. For example, Country Clubs rarely admit people into
|
||
membership positions unless that person is of age, so either all Country Club
|
||
Members are generally assumed to have the elective franchise to turn over house
|
||
management, or some type of junior Membership is created for young dependent
|
||
offspring. Citizenship does differ; there was once a time in the United States
|
||
when a large body of Citizens were denied the benefit of elective franchise
|
||
rights, back before Women's Sufferrage matured:
|
||
"Again, women and minors are Citizens of the [various States], and also
|
||
of the United States; but they are not electors, nor are they eligible to
|
||
office, either in those States or in the United States."
|
||
- Caleb Cushing, Attorney General of the United States, ["Chickasaw
|
||
Constitution"] in 8 OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL 300, at 302, [R. Farnham,
|
||
Washington (1858)]. Yes, the elective franchise, together with the right to
|
||
hold government offices, is deemed to be one of the many benefits inuring to
|
||
Citizens, even though not all Citizens universally enjoy such benefits.
|
||
<div>[520]
|
||
Some other benefits inuring to Citizens of the United States are, in general,
|
||
the protection of United States Marshals. [521]
|
||
[521]<div> When I read
|
||
about this benefit in a Supreme Court Case, my mind was reading it if it were,
|
||
or could possibly be converted into, a specific duty on the part of the
|
||
Marshals -- which is the way the wording was written; later a Federal Judge
|
||
once disputed this with me in part, stating that United States Marshals owe no
|
||
American any protective duty specifically [meaning that if the Marshals default
|
||
in protecting Citizens, then the Marshals have no reciprocal liability inuring
|
||
in return to Citizens in favor of Breach of Contract damages or perhaps
|
||
negligence on their part; this means that if you request the Marshals' services
|
||
and the Marshals mess up for some reason, then you are without recourse to sue
|
||
them for damages]. In reading all of the Federal statutes on Citizenship and of
|
||
the United States Marshals, there is no exact statute anywhere which binds the
|
||
Marshal, or otherwise creates such a duty, to specifically protect you, yet
|
||
their protectorate services are deemed to be a benefit by Federal Judges.
|
||
<div>[521]
|
||
Yes, all Citizens accept the protectorate benefits offered by the United States
|
||
Marshal Service. [522]
|
||
[522]<div> "The people
|
||
of the United States resident within any State are subject to two Governments;
|
||
one State, and the other National; but there needs be no conflict between the
|
||
two... It is the natural consequence of a Citizenship, which owes allegiance to
|
||
two sovereignties, and claims protection from both. The Citizen cannot
|
||
complain, because he has voluntarily submitted himself to such a form of
|
||
Government. He owes allegiance to the two departments, so to speak, and within
|
||
their respective spheres must pay the penalties which each exacts for
|
||
disobedience to its laws. In return, he can demand protection from each with
|
||
its own jurisdiction."
|
||
- UNITED STATES VS. CRUIKSHANK, 92 U.S. 542, at 550 (1875). And so the
|
||
King needs some bouncers to justify his claim of protecting Citizens.
|
||
<div>[522]
|
||
And unlike your local Police Department, when you call up the U.S. Marshals and
|
||
request their security assistance, generally they will not bark, snap, or snort
|
||
at you for doing so. [523]
|
||
[523]<div> To this
|
||
extent, United States Marshals are somewhat like the old Roman Centurions, who
|
||
protected Roman Citizens from murder and other dangers originating from attack
|
||
Gremlins:
|
||
"... the ruling power at Rome, whether Republican or imperial, granted,
|
||
from time to time, to communities and to individuals in the conquered East, the
|
||
Title of ROMAN, and the rights of Roman Citizens.
|
||
"A striking example of this Roman naturalization, of its controlling
|
||
authority as a political law, and of its beneficent power to protect a
|
||
persecuted Citizen, may be found in the case of Saint Paul, as it is
|
||
graphically reported in the ACTS OF THE APOSTLES. Paul, being at Jerusalem, was
|
||
in great peril of his life from his countrymen... who accused him of crimes
|
||
against their own law and faith, and were about to put him to death by mob
|
||
violence, when he was rescued by the commander of the Roman troops, and taken
|
||
into a fort for security. [Paul] first explained, both to the Roman officer and
|
||
to his own countrymen, who were clamoring against him, his local status and
|
||
municipal relations; that he was... of Tarsus, a natural born Citizen, of no
|
||
mean city, and that he had been brought up in Jerusalem, in the strictest
|
||
manner, according to the law and faith of his fathers. But this did not appease
|
||
the angry crowd, who were proceeding with great violence to kill him. And then:
|
||
"the Chief Captain [of the Jews] commanded that he be brought into the
|
||
castle, and bade that he should be EXAMINED BY SCOURGING, that is, tortured to
|
||
enforce confession.
|
||
"And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the Centurion that
|
||
stood by, 'Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is A ROMAN AND
|
||
UnConDEMNED?' When the Centurion heard THAT, he went out and told the Chief
|
||
Captain, saying, take heed what thou doest, FOR THIS MAN IS A ROMAN. Then the
|
||
Chief Captain came and said, 'Tell me, art thou a ROMAN?' [Paul] said yea; and
|
||
the Chief Captain said, 'With a great sum obtained I THIS FREEDOM.' And Paul
|
||
said, 'But I was FREE BORN.' Then straightaway THEY departed from him which
|
||
should have examined him. And the Chief Captain also was afraid, after he knew
|
||
that [Paul] was a ROMAN, and because [Paul] had BOUND HIM."
|
||
"Thus Paul, under circumstances of great danger and obloquy, asserted
|
||
his immunity, as "a Roman unCondemned," from ignominious constraint and cruel
|
||
punishment, a constraint and punishment against which, as a mere provincial
|
||
subject of Rome, he had no legal protection. And thus the Roman officers
|
||
instantly, and with fear, obeyed the law of their country and respected the
|
||
sacred franchise of the Roman Citizen.
|
||
"Paul, as we know by this record, was a natural born Citizen of Tarsus,
|
||
and as such, no doubt, had the municipal freedom of that city; but that would
|
||
not have protected him against the throngs and the lash. How he became a Roman
|
||
we learn from other historical sources. Caesar granted to the people of Tarsus
|
||
(for some good service done, probably for taking his side in the war which
|
||
resulted in the establishment of the Empire) the title of Roman, and the
|
||
freedom of Roman Citizens. And, considering the chronology of events, this
|
||
grant must have been older than Paul; and therefore he truly said 'I WAS FREE
|
||
BORN' - a free Citizen of Rome, and as such exempt by law from degrading
|
||
punishment.
|
||
"And this immunity did not fill the measure of his rights as a Citizen.
|
||
As a Roman, it was his right to be tried by the Supreme Authority, at the
|
||
Capital of the Empire. And when he claimed that right, and appealed from the
|
||
jurisdiction of the provincial governor to the Emperor of Rome, his appeal was
|
||
instantly allowed, and he was remitted to 'Caesar's judgment'."

|
||
The United States Marshals today will make inquiries and ask probing questions
|
||
to uncover the reasons why you believe your security is being impaired, as they
|
||
do want to get to the bottom of the threatening situation, in order to
|
||
terminate whatever it is that is giving you grounds for concern. On any serious
|
||
inquiry they will normally send out a Marshal immediately to see you, and they
|
||
will even put you up in a hotel if deemed provident under the circumstances; so
|
||
yes, the security benefits offered by the U.S. Marshals are more than
|
||
legitimate. But no one knows anything about the protectorate benefits being
|
||
offered by the U.S. Marshals. Due to the HOLLYWOODIZATION of cops and robbers
|
||
television shows, people have been conditioned to think in terms of calling up
|
||
their local police department for security assistance, and have also been
|
||
conditioned to expect a tough rebuffment when asking for bodyguard services --
|
||
when all along it was the dormant and ignored U.S. Marshals that have been
|
||
schooled, trained and are expecting your pleas for limited assistance. [524]
|
||
[524]<div> Other
|
||
benefits offered to American Citizens by the King [and Federal Judges know
|
||
this, so we should too] is financial assistance to American Citizens returning
|
||
from foreign countries. In Title 42, Section 1312, the Secretary of State is
|
||
authorized to provide temporary assistance to Citizens and to dependents of
|
||
those Citizens, if they have returned to the United States in a state of
|
||
destitution resulting from war, threat of war, invasion, or some other crisis
|
||
some Gremlin pulled off somewhere. Another benefit offered to American Citizens
|
||
is the protection of the United States Government when travelling abroad; this
|
||
service is provided through foreign diplomatic consular offices. Our family has
|
||
businesses in other parts of the globe, and whenever we have made phone calls
|
||
to the American Embassy for assistance, they have always sent out someone
|
||
immediately. In Title 22, Section 1731 ["Protection of Naturalized Citizens
|
||
Abroad"], the King has decreed that PERSONS who have become naturalized
|
||
Citizens are entitled to this same benefit of protection assistance in foreign
|
||
lands, both for themselves and their property while over there. In Title 22,
|
||
Section 1732, the President of the United States is under a specific duty to
|
||
first inquire of foreign governments and then offer assistance whenever an
|
||
American is incarcerated abroad. See:

<div>[524]
|
||
As for the 14th Amendment, the reason why the 14th Amendment as a stand-alone
|
||
line of Status defense is patently frivolous is because all Citizens accept
|
||
benefits that the King is offering, and the classification by Tax Protestors of
|
||
Citizens into different categories, when benefits are being accepted by all
|
||
Citizens regardless of classification, is baneful. [525]
|
||
[525]<div> The word
|
||
CITIZEN appears four times in the 14th Amendment; some are in reference to
|
||
Citizens of the United States, and others are in reference to Citizens of the
|
||
several States. There is a Citizenship Clause in the 14th Amendment pertaining
|
||
to the benefits [a RIGHT is also frequently a benefit] enjoyed by Citizens of
|
||
the States in relationship to the benefits enjoyed by Citizens of other States.
|
||
Called the PRIVILEGES AND IMMUNITIES CLAUSE, this Clause has generated a large
|
||
volume of Court Cases. See:
|
||
- THE PRIVILEGES AND IMMUNITIES OF CITIZENS IN THE SEVERAL STATES, 1
|
||

Claiming that you are a COMMON LAW CITIZEN, or a PREAMBLE CITIZEN with a
|
||
special reciprocity exempt status to avoid that irritating QUID PRO QUO
|
||
("something for something") payment of an unreasonable enscrewment oriented
|
||
Income Tax, is foolishness, and you are not entitled to prevail under any
|
||
circumstances before a Federal Judge. [526]
|
||
[526]<div> Another line
|
||
of foolishness some folks propagate is that, just somehow, there is a
|
||
relationship in effect between Social Security and legal liability for the
|
||
National Military Draft. In propagating this line, these people suggest the
|
||
view that Draft Protestors are burning the wrong card, that is, that Draft
|
||
Resisters should be burning their Social Security Card. This line of reasoning
|
||
is defective, as the United States has been successfully drafting Citizens into
|
||
military service in World War I, long before FDR's Rockefeller Cartel sponsors
|
||
in New York City presented the wealth transfer grab of Social Security to
|
||
America through their imp nominees in Washington in the 1930's; just like the
|
||
United States had been successfully collecting taxes on Income during the Civil
|
||
War, before the 14th or 16th Amendments ever made their appearance. See the
|
||
SELECTIVE DRAFT CASES, 245 U.S. 366 (1917), for rulings on Draft Protestors in
|
||
World War I. And speaking of the draft, there is nothing immoral about the
|
||
draft, either. Reason: There is a very reasonable and even QUID PRO QUO
|
||
exchange of reciprocity going on that the Draft Protestors don't see. If you
|
||
examine the benefits American Citizens accept above, one of them is "the
|
||
protection of the United States Marshals." Since the King is risking the
|
||
physical security of his bouncers to protect you [yes, and unlike your local
|
||
Police Department, the Marshals will not snort at you when you request their
|
||
security benefits], then would someone please explain to me what is
|
||
unreasonable about the King asking in return for the male Citizenry to risk
|
||
their physical security to protect the King's kingdom?
|
||
"The very conception of a just Government and its duty to the Citizen
|
||
includes the reciprocal obligation of the Citizen to render military service in
|
||
case of need and the right to compel it."
|
||
- SELECTIVE DRAFT CASES, 245 U.S. 366, at 378 (1917). The reason why
|
||
the obligation is reciprocal is because the King is first offering to you the
|
||
protectorate services of his bouncers. The reciprocal and contractual nature of
|
||
Citizenship is recognized in Congress as such. When debates on the proposed
|
||
14th Amendment transpired in the Senate, Senator Trumbull stated his
|
||
understanding that:
|
||
"This Government... has certainly some power to protect its own
|
||
Citizens in their own country. Allegiance and protection are reciprocal
|
||
rights."
|
||
- CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE, 39th Congress, 1st Session, at page 1757 (1866).
|
||
<div>[526]
|
||
The reason why self-proclaimed PREAMBLE CITIZENS and COMMON LAW CITIZENS, so
|
||
called, are properly burdened with the heavy QUID PRO QUO reciprocity of the
|
||
Income Tax is that all Citizens accept and enjoy the protectorate benefits
|
||
previously discussed that the King is offering, so all Citizens accept Federal
|
||
benefits. Yes, Citizens under the 14th Amendment have additional contracts in
|
||
effect (stemming from the additional benefits that the 14th Amendment offers),
|
||
that they need to concern themselves with -- but all Citizens accept those
|
||
other Federal benefits as well, and so all Citizens are operating under the
|
||
King's Equity Jurisdiction of the United States, and are appropriate objects
|
||
for the assertion of a regulatory and taxation environment over, through
|
||
contract terms. [527].
|
||
[527]<div> This is not
|
||
exactly the type of a talk a Tax Protestor wants to hear, but there are many
|
||
folks operating on Protestor caliber who arrive at similar defective
|

conclusions of law that their philosophy is beckoning to hear.

<div>[527]
|
||
I would advise you to terminate your reliance on information originating from
|
||
people who lace excessive priority attention on the 14th Amendment Citizenship
|
||
question, as their stand-alone arguments are without any merit whatsoever for
|
||
purposes of detaching yourself away from Federal Taxation liability. [528]

promotion of their general welfare and the protection of their individual, as

But just where does the King and the Federal Judges get off with the idea that
|
||
Citizenship, all by itself, attaches liability to Title 26? Nowhere in Title 26
|
||
is there any concise discussion about how Citizens are those Persons identified
|
||
in Section 7203 ("Willful Failure to File") as being one of "all persons who
|
||
are required to file..." [530]
|
||
[530]<div> Although
|
||
there are 115 Sections of LEX where the root word CITIZEN appears in Title 26,
|
||
when considered as a whole they only inferentially suggest that the CITIZENSHIP
|
||
CONTRACT is the primary center of gravity for federal taxation liability
|
||
attachment purposes. For example, some of these are:
|
||
- Section 63 ["Taxable Income Defined"];
|

So just where do Federal Judges get the idea that Citizens are PERSONS under
|
||
contract, suitable for a smooth Federal taxation shake down? [531]
|
||
[531]<div> For purposes
|
||
of collecting an ESTATE TAX, the statutes in Title 26 are blunt and clear that
|
||
CITIZENS must pay:
|
||
"A tax is hereby imposed on the transfer of the taxable estate of every
|
||
decedent who is a Citizen or resident of the United States."

|
||
The answer lies by probing a level deeper into the King's statutes, into an
|
||
area Patriots and Tax Protestors do not seem to be pursuing that much: Into the
|
||
CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS, which operate as junior statutes. [532]
|
||
[532]<div> The Code is
|
||
divided into 50 titles or PARTS, which do not always correlate to statutory
|
||
Titles. For example, Title 26 UNITED STATES CODE pertains to TAXATION, and the
|
||
corresponding Part of CFR that also pertains to TAXATION is Volume 26; however,
|
||
Title 50 UNITED STATES CODE deals with WAR AND NATIONAL DEFENSE, while CFR Part
|
||
50 deals with WILDLIFE AND FISHERIES.

<div>[532]
|
||
The CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS is a codification of the general and permanent
|
||
rules published in the Federal Register by the Executive Department and by
|
||
agencies of the United States. The Code is very powerful indeed (remember to
|
||
always think like a Federal Judge momentarily for analytical purposes, so you
|
||
don't react like a surprised clown when dragged into their courtroom on a
|
||
grievance with someone), and the contents of the Code of Federal Regulations
|
||
(like it's father, the Federal Register) are required to be judicially noticed.

This CFR is republished once each year, so the following quotations, extracted
|
||
from the 1985 edition, may have been altered in future editions. With that in
|
||
mind, consider the following words from the CFR:
|
||
"In general, all Citizens of the United States, wherever resident, and
|
||
all resident alien individuals are liable to the income taxes imposed by the
|
||
Code whether the income is received from sources within or without the United
|
||
States...
|
||
"Every person born or naturalized in the United States and subject to
|
||
its jurisdiction is a Citizen." [535]
|
||
[535]<div> 26 CFR
|
||
1.0-1(b) and 1.0-1(c); (1985).
|
||
<div>[535]
|
||
So you see for Citizens IN GENERAL, Federal Judges have already quietly taken
|
||
Judicial Notice of the fact that your Citizenship is an invisible contract to
|
||
pay Income Taxes -- but what if you are not a Citizen GENERALLY speaking
|
||
[meaning, like everyone else, by their silence they have accepted Citizenship
|
||
benefits]. By having vacated the factual record of any benefits having been
|
||
accepted, by striping the factual record of any QUID PRO QUO of equivalence
|
||
exchanged, that factual setting is no longer GENERAL and ordinary, now it is
|
||
SPECIAL and extraordinary, where if the King makes any revenue collection
|
||
attempt, you have him worked into an immoral position. Yes, Citizenship is a
|
||
contract in the classical sense, since benefits offered conditionally were
|
||
accepted, and where expectations of reciprocity were retained by the benefit
|
||
contributor -- it's all there. [536]
|
||
[536]<div> What we view
|
||
as Citizenship DUTIES are, when view from the King's perspective, his
|
||
expectations of reciprocity. A private commentator once expressed some ideas
|
||
regarding the "sale" of the duties of Citizenship to other parties, by asking
|
||
the question: Should Citizens be able to contract out to others their required
|
||
reciprocal services? Under the concept of inalienable duties [INALIENABLE
|
||
meaning that they cannot be transferred], Government requires certain actions
|
||
of its Citizens and forbids the transfer of these duties to others. For
|
||
example, calls for Voters, Jury Service, and Military Enlistment are based on
|
||
the invisible contract attachment of Citizenship, and are, at the present time,
|
||
inalienable. VOTERS: In some foreign countries, like Australia, voting
|
||
liability cannot be transferred to others -- but is mandatory under fines [see
|
||
H. Emy in THE POLITICS OF AUSTRALIAN DEMOCRACY: FUNDAMENTALS IN DISPUTE, at
|
||
page 596 et seq. (2nd Edition, 1978)]. In a sense, Government has set a price
|
||
for not voting; so theoretically, by inverse reasoning, Citizens should also be
|
||
able to set a price and buy their way out of not voting by selling their right
|
||
to others [there is not a lot of difference between paying Government not to
|
||
vote and paying someone else to vote on your behalf]. SOLDIERS AND JURORS: The
|
||
arguments for selling jury duty is slightly different because the higher
|
||
standards necessarily exclude many Citizens from serving, but even the
|
||
qualified sale of a call to serve on a jury is appropriate for private
|
||
negotiation. Military enlistment in the United States was once up for sale,
|
||
i.e., the draft was an ALIENABLE [transferable] duty. During the United States
|
||
Civil War, draftees for both the North and the South could buy their way out of
|
||
the draft, or buy a substitute; so the net effect was a military infantry
|
||
consisting of a volunteer army financed by wealthy draftees instead of
|
||
Taxpayers. While soldiers may have ended up being paid the opportunity cost of
|
||
enlistment, the Government is planning its military activity was not required
|
||
to take these opportunity costs into account. The reason why this interesting
|
||
system broke down is because in the North, several municipalities and States
|
||
intervened by appropriating money to enable destitute folks to buy their way
|
||
out and then began to pay bounties to enlistees. In the South, the purchase of
|
||
substitutes was heavily criticized and was abolished soon after it was begun,
|
||
as the howling of UNFAIRNESS ascended into Legislatures [see E. Murdock in
|
||
PATRIOTISM LIMITED: 1862-1854: THE CIVIL WAR DRAFT AND THE BOUNTY SYSTEM
|
||
(1967)]. See generally INALIENABILITY AND THE THEORY OF PROPERTY RIGHTS

The CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS is also another source of identifying handouts
|
||
and benefits offered to Citizens. [537]

[537]<div> I have

decided to list each of the PARTS of the 1985 CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS,

And the Judicial Notice, taken quietly IN CAMERA, that the Citizenship Contract
|
||
is the contract being operated on, is never pronounced publicly in an open
|
||
courtroom forum. Does that last sentence I quoted from the CFR about how every
|
||
person born or naturalized in the United States seem familiar to you? It
|
||
should, because it comes straight out of the 14th Amendment, with only one word
|
||
being changed. And read it carefully, as there is admitted a class of
|
||
individuals, here residing in the United States as a matter of birthright, who
|
||
might not be subject to the total jurisdiction of the United States Government.
|
||
[538]
|

[538]<div> "... the

phrase "subject to the jurisdiction" relates to time of birth, and one not

geographical location, but 'completely subject to the political jurisdiction'."

accept any benefits or handouts from the King. [[539]

[539]<div> The most

predominate ways that an individual can become subject to the jurisdiction of

the United States is by:

1. Violating a law the Government is authorized to prosecute

(counterfeiting, bank robbery, treason, etc.);
|

2. Be employed by the Federal Government;

3. Apply for its privileges, or accept its benefits; See generally:

Despite the fact that I say a few isolated nice things about Federal Judges
|
||
(with the applicability of my favorable comments being restricted to just a few
|
||
limited grievance factual settings Federal Judges preside over), I am unable to
|
||
recall any Federal Case that correctly talks about Citizenship as the pure, raw
|
||
contract that it very much is; yet it's all there in Citizenship, all of the
|
||
indicia that composes a contract: Benefits offered, as well as their
|
||
acceptance, reciprocity expected back in return, and all this all written out
|
||
in advance in specific and blunt terms in Federal Statutes. [540]
|
||
[540]<div> Yes,
|
||
benefits are the key to lock yourself into state and federal taxation webs:
|
||
"... it is essential in each case that there be some act by which the

||
defendant purposefully avails itself of the privilege of conducting activities
|
||
within the forum State, thus invoking the benefits and protections of its

laws."

|

Why then does the Supreme Court not correctly address Citizenship as the
|
||
contract that it really is? I don't know why, precisely; I could conjecture
|
||
that they do not want to publish an exemplary Case, explaining in the context
|
||
of a specific factual setting, how an Individual can get himself out of the
|
||
contract containing taxation reciprocity covenants. But I don't really care,
|
||
either; whatever information the Federal Judiciary is deficient in elucidating
|
||
regarding identifying Citizenship as the invisible contract that it is, I can
|
||
get from other sources, even ecclesiastical sources, and then retrofit it
|
||
interstitially to uncover the real meaning of obscure Judicial reasoning:
|
||
"An old principle, laid down from the earliest ages of British
|
||
jurisprudence, from which we receive our national institutions, is that
|
||
allegiance is that ligament or thread which bonds the subject to the sovereign,
|
||
by an implied contract, owes, in turn, protection to the subject; and the very
|
||
moment that the Government withholds its protection, that very moment
|
||
allegiance ceases." [541]

Smith, from a discourse delivered in the Tabernacle, Salt Lake City, on

|
||
<div>[541]
|
||
Yes, Citizenship is very much a contract, and Federal Judges generally think in
|
||
contract terms when dealing with a Tax or Draft Protestor. [542]
|
||
[542]<div> I am not
|
||
aware of any Federal statute anywhere that comes right out in the open and
|
||
explicitly correlates the benefits of Citizenship with the reciprocal duties
|
||
and liabilities all participants in that contract encumber themselves with;
|
||
however, on a parallel tangent, but there is an interesting slice of LEX in the
|
||
Civil Rights Statutes which announces a similar theme of benefits and duties,
|
||
which I mentioned in two fragments:
|
||
"All persons within the jurisdiction of the United States shall have
|
||
the same right in every State and Territory to make and enforce contracts, to
|
||
sue, be parties, give evidence, and to the full and equal benefit of all laws
|
||
and proceedings for the security of persons and property as is enjoyed by White
|
||
Citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains, penalties, taxes,
|
||
licenses, and exactions of every kind, and no other."
|
||
- Title 42, Section 1981 ["Civil Rights"] (enacted May, 1870). Multiple
|
||
Tax Protestors have taken notice of this statute, and have used it to try and
|
||
argue that this Section 1981 conveys jurisdiction to Federal District Courts
|
||
for hearing PROTESTING grievances arising out of Title 26; for example, see the
|
||
jurisdictional arguments in:
|
||
- SNYDER VS. IRS, 596 F.Supp. 240 (1984);
|
||
- CAMERON VS. IRS, 593 F.Supp 1540 (1984) [appeal published in 773
|
||
F.2nd 126 (1985)];
|
||
- YOUNG VS. IRS, 596 F.Supp. 141 (1984). Title 26 was deliberately
|
||
designed by its draftsmen in Congress to convey only that thin, tiny, minimum
|
||
sliver of jurisdiction to Federal District Courts that was necessary to hear
|
||
grievances initiated by the King's Agents, seeking the enforcement of taxes,
|
||
penalties, assessments, injunctions, summonses, etc.; Title 26 does not offer,
|
||
and was not intended to offer, a good source of statutes invoking Federal
|
||
District Court jurisdiction to either abate or remedy the naked Torts or
|
||
contractual errors of IRS termites. Tax Protestors might want to emulate the
|
||
MODUS OPERANDI of Federal Judges when dealing with a Title 26 related
|
||
grievance, and invoke the 16th Amendment as a source of jurisdiction for their
|
||
District Court Kingdom, which Federal Judges quietly do [nowhere in the 16th
|
||
Amendment do the words JURISDICTION, DISTRICT COURT, or CONVEY appear anywhere,
|
||
but pesky little deficiency impediments like that are not about to stop Federal
|
||
Judges]. <div>[542]
|
||
Citizenship is probably the single most important contract that you need to
|
||
come to grips with, as Citizens are suitable objects to assert both a taxation
|
||
and regulation jurisdiction over, and properly so as a matter of Law; however,
|
||
we all have philosophical disagreements on some of the bitter terms this
|
||
particular Regulatory Jurisdiction contract calls for. With your severance of
|
||
the reciprocity liability that is associated with Citizenship, a large amount
|
||
of the friction relating to your confrontations with Government will evaporate
|
||
overnight -- but your Citizenship contract is not the only exclusive contract
|
||
you need to concern yourself with; and be mindful that Citizenship, or any
|
||
other type of political status, is not relevant or necessary in those types of
|
||
criminal prosecutions that are predicated on either Tort or special contract
|
||
(like Highways). So just where is the bottom line here to detach yourself away
|
||
from those adhesive statutes in Title 26? [543]
|
||
[543]<div> Your right
|
||
to walk away from the Citizenship Contract, any time you feel like it, is
|
||
absolute [see 9 OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL 356 ["Right of Expatriation"]
|
||
(1859)], and you don't need to follow Federal Statutes on Expatriation (the
|
||
King wants all pesky little tax avoidance oriented expatriators to physically
|
||
leave the United States, and then surrender their Passport to a foreign
|
||
consular office [meaning that you will be prevented from re-entering the United
|
||
States]; see Title 26, Section 2107 and the Expatriation statutes in the King's
|
||
Title 8 LEX). Meanwhile, the King has no right in his statutes to force the
|
||
unwanted acceptance of juristic benefits, and silence in his statutes on
|
||
administrative procedures to go through to explicitly disavow such benefits
|
||
does not vitiate or negate this standing right of rejection.
|
||
"There is a principle or theory in nations of Europe that if allowed to
|
||
be enforced [here in the United States] destroys the quality of absolute
|
||
American Citizenship. There is not a civilized nation that does not in some
|
||
form recognize the right of a person to change his domicile or expatriate
|
||
himself. The doctrine of perpetual allegiance is derived from the Dark Ages,
|
||
the time when Governments were maintained for the benefit of rulers and not for
|
||
the people. Sovereigns were everything; subjects were nothing."

||
- Congressman Norman Judd of Illinois on the Floor of the House of
|
||
Representatives, CONGRESSIONAL RECORD, 40th Congress, 2nd Session, page 7
|
||
(December 2, 1867). Just as pig Sovereigns in the Dark Ages demanded that
|
||
Citizens could not walk away from allegiance to his kingdom for any reason, so
|
||
too by corollary, should Federal Judges start to deem the acceptance of Federal
|
||
benefits as being mandatory and non-waivable, then our reciprocation will be on
|
||
terms our Founding Fathers taught us so well: The kind of terms that leave a
|
||
lingering scent of nitrates in the air downwind from the Federal Buildings
|

where they all went to work synchronously.

|

If that is your objective, then you have to effectuate a pure severance of
|
||
yourself away from the King's Equity Jurisdiction, and not just a partial
|

severance. No, you don't get to selectively pick and choose just what Federal
|
||
benefits you want and don't want. This Citizenship is one of the larger slices
|
||
that constitutes the Title 26 liability pie, and once Federal Judges have
|
||
quietly taken Judicial Notice of your Citizenship, they generally then and
|
||
there stop looking for other contracts to nail on you, when ruling over civil
|
||
Income Tax grievances. [544]
|
||
[544]<div> If in fact
|
||
Citizenship is the dominate invisible contract that Federal Judges are using as
|
||
BENEFIT ACCEPTANCE justification to adhesively hold the LEX of Title 26 to
|
||
folks -- then there necessarily rises to our attention another question. In
|
||
1939, Congress enacted the PUBLIC SALARY TAX ACT, designed to waive the
|
||
benefits inuring to Federal Employees of a long-standing doctrine in the United
|
||
States Supreme Court that prohibits the taxation of Federal instrumentalities
|
||
by the several States, and VICE-VERSA -- called the INTERGOVERNMENTAL IMMUNITY
|
||
DOCTRINE.
|
||
"What limitations does the Federal Constitution impose upon the United
|
||
States in respect of taxing instrumentalities and agencies employed by a State
|
||
and, conversely, how far does it inhibit the States from taxing
|
||
instrumentalities and agencies utilized by the United States, are questions
|
||
often considered here. [Cases deleted].
|
||
"The Constitution contemplates a national Government free to use its
|
||
delegated powers; also state Governments capable of exercising their essential
|
||
reserved powers; both operate within the same territorial limits; consequently
|
||
the Constitution itself, either by word or necessary inference, makes adequate
|
||
provision for preventing conflict between them.
|
||
"Among the inferences which derive necessarily from the Constitution
|
||
are these: No State may tax appropriate means which the United States may
|
||
employ for exercising their delegated powers; the United States may not tax
|
||
instrumentalities which a State may employ in the discharge of her essential
|
||
governmental duties -- that is, those duties which the Framers intended each
|
||
member of the Union would assume in order adequately to function under the form
|
||
of Government guaranteed by the Constitution."
|
||
- HELVERING VS. THERRELL, 303 U.S. 218, at 222 (1937). The Constitution
|
||
nowhere states that the Congress is barred from taxing State Employees, or that
|
||
the States are barred from taxing Federal Employees; yet the Supreme Court held
|
||
in COLLECTOR VS. DAY that the salary of a State Officer is immune from Federal
|
||
income taxation:
|
||
"That the taxing power of the Federal Government is nevertheless
|
||
subject to an implied restriction when applied to State instrumentalities was
|
||
first decided in COLLECTOR VS. DAY, 11 Wallace 113, where the salary of a state
|
||
officer, a probate judge, was held to be immune from Federal income tax. The
|
||
question there presented was not one of interference with a granted power in a
|
||
field in which the Federal Government is supreme, but a limitation by
|
||
implication upon the granted Federal power to tax."
|
||
- HELVERING VS. GERHARDT, 304 U.S. 405, at 414 (1937). So even though
|
||
Federal Employees cannot be taxed under this immunity doctrine, the Congress
|
||
enacted the PUBLIC SALARY TAX ACT to waive the immunity its employees would
|
||
otherwise enjoy; The Congress wanted to make sure that their help was paying
|
||
the freight like everyone else:
|
||
"Federal Employees... too, should contribute to the support o their
|
||
State and local Governments to the same extent as private Employees...
|
||
Employees of Governments receive all the benefits of Government which their
|
||
fellow Citizens do, and consequently they should also bear their fair share of
|
||
its costs."
|
||
- SENATE REPORT #112 ["Public Salary Tax Act"], 76th Congress, First
|
||
Session, at 4 (February, 1939). And perhaps the Congress was also expecting
|
||
some reciprocity back in return from the States:
|
||
"The statute construed in COLLECTOR VS. DAY afforded no reciprocal
|
||
right to the States to tax the salaries of Federal Employees. In this respect,
|
||
it might be said to be discriminatory against the States. The proposed
|
||
legislation does permit the States to tax Federal Salaries."
|
||
- SENATE REPORT #112 ["Public Salary Tax Act"], 76th Congress, First
|
||
Session, at 8 (February, 1939). After it was enacted, this PUBLIC SALARY TAX
|
||
ACT read that:
|
||
"The United States consents to the taxation of pay or compensation for
|
||
personal service as an office or employee of the United States..."
|
||
- Title 4, Section 111 ["Public Salary Tax Act"] (revised September,
|
||
1966). Tax Protestors reading this statute from the perspective that only
|
||
Federal Employees are PERSONS liable for the Title 26 tax are in error. This
|
||
Act only means that INTERGOVERNMENTAL IMMUNITY is waived and that the States
|
||
can tax the salaries of Federal Employees, and no more. But where did the
|
||
Congress initially become so disabled from taxing State employees?
|
||
"The Constitution contains no express limitation on the power of either
|
||
a State or the national Government to tax the other, or its instrumentalities.
|
||
The doctrine that there is an implied limitation stems from MCCULLOCH VS.
|
||
MARYLAND [4 Wheat 316], in which it was held that a State tax laid specifically
|
||
upon the privilege of issuing bank notes, and in fact applicable alone to the
|
||
notes of national banks, was invalid since it impeded the national Government
|
||
in the exercise of its power to establish and maintain a bank, implied as an
|
||
incident to the borrowing, taxing, war, and other powers specifically granted
|
||
to the national Government by Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution."
|
||
- HELVERING VS. GERHARDT, 304 U.S. 405, at 411 (1937). [That's right,
|
||
you FEDERAL RESERVE PROTESTORS out there: Your arguments on the
|
||
unConstitutionality of the Federal Reserve System and its circulating notes,
|
||
based on the monetary disabilities present in Article 1, Sections 8 and 10,
|
||
even though factually correct of and by themselves, are only a very small part
|
||
of the larger jurisdictional pie our King has to justify his juristic banking
|
||
creations. I would like to see a Protestor try and argue the
|
||
unConstitutionality of the Fed based on the full panoply of its sources of
|
||
jurisdictional fuel: The BORROWING POWER to contract for debts, the WAR POWERS
|
||
to defend the United States, the TAXATION POWERS resident in Article 1, Section
|
||
8, and the regulation of COMMERCE POWER also in Article 1, Section 8, etc. You
|
||
Protestors can't do that as there are no countermanding arguments for some of
|
||
those sources of jurisdictional fuel, and so now the end result is exactly what
|
||
Federal Judges correctly rule to be so down to the present day: That the
|
||
Federal Reserve System, Gremlins and all, is in fact Constitutional.] QUESTION:
|
||
So, if Citizenship is the contract operated on by Federal Judges, then why will
|
||
Federal Judges simply not refer over to the Citizenship contract as overruling
|
||
justification to tax Governmental Employees? The Answer lies in the fact that
|
||
CITIZENSHIP is an implied contract created and structured largely by statutory
|
||
devices; as an implied contract [meaning not expressly negotiated and
|
||
individually written down], Citizenship can only fill the vacant contours that
|
||
are left open by other premier boundary line restrainments of a higher
|
||
priority. Here we have a fundamental intergovernmental immunity doctrine
|
||
related to that granddaddy itself: SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY. Under this
|
||
INTERGOVERNMENTAL IMMUNITY DOCTRINE, Federal and State instrumentalities are
|
||
pre-emptively disabled from even asking for any taxation reciprocity back in
|
||
return from each other -- even though Federal juristic benefits were accepted
|
||
by a state employee in COLLECTOR VS. DAY, and an implied taxation contract was
|
||
in effect. Remember that the Congress is operating on a limited profiled slice
|
||
of multiple jurisdictional assignments; the Congress is pre-emptively disabled
|
||
from pulling off many things in the BILL OF RIGHTS that requires either a
|
||
Commercial Contract or individually negotiated contract consent to overrule.
|
||
The Corpus of the Constitution also pre-emptively disables the Congress from
|
||
asking for taxation reciprocity back in return for important Commercial
|
||
benefits accepted in Article 1, Section 9 ["No Tax or Duty shall be laid on
|
||
Articles exported from any State"], even though those articles destined for
|
||
foreign nations were very much the product of otherwise taxable INTERSTATE
|
||
COMMERCE. The right of taxation, where it does exist, is necessarily unlimited
|
||
in its nature:
|
||
"... the right of taxation, where it exists, is necessarily unlimited
|
||
in its nature."
|
||
- MCCRAY VS. UNITED STATES, 195 U.S. 27, at 57 (1903). But as unlimited
|
||
as it is in some areas, the right of taxation does not exist everywhere; [EVANS
|
||
VS. GORE mentions the existence of a class of "... excepted subjects," 253 U.S.
|
||
245, at 261 (1920)] -- so not everyone to whom benefits are thrown at are
|
||
automatically liable for the reciprocating financial payments of taxation; in
|
||
some cases Government is pre-emptively barred from asking for benefit
|
||
reciprocity, and implied contracts take a back seat to overruling restrainments
|
||
such as INTERGOVERNMENTAL IMMUNITY. This Taxation Immunity Doctrine is
|
||
Judicially created, and Judges, as the individuals that they are, frequent do
|
||
possess views diverging from the expected conformal median. Question: Are there
|
||
some Judges who would like to merely cite national CITIZENSHIP as THE
|
||
justifying taxation contract, and ignore Immunity Doctrines? Yes, there are:
|
||
"... respondents, though Employees of the New York Port Authority, are
|
||
Citizens of the United States; the tax levied upon their incomes from the
|
||
Authority is the same as that paid by other Citizens receiving equal net
|
||
incomes; and payment of this non-discriminatory income tax by respondents
|
||
cannot impair or defeat in whole or in part the governmental operations of the
|
||
State of New York. A Citizen who receives his income from a State, owes the
|
||
same obligation to the United States as other Citizens who draw their salaries
|
||
from private sources or the United States and pay Federal income taxes."
|
||
- HELVERING VS. GERHARDT, 304 U.S. 405, at 424 [Justice Black
|
||
concurring] (1937). The same difficulty in assigning values to competing
|
||
differentials in contract priority, that some Patriots will have to come to
|
||
grips with the strong relevance of national CITIZENSHIP for taxation purposes
|
||
when not otherwise disabled, but not quite strong enough to pierce this State
|
||
Employee immunity veil, is exemplary of the same judgment we all confront daily
|
||
while we too, just like the Supreme Court, apply the relevance of our Celestial
|
||
Covenants to a wide ranging array of factual settings that make their
|
||
appearance in our lives. And those factual settings also present to us a
|
||
competing confluence of incentives, to which we respond with differential
|
||
levels of perceived Covenant importance.

Your successful severance of liability away from the administrative mandates of
|
||
Title 26 requires a thorough decontamination of yourself away from the contract
|
||
of Citizenship and all Commercial contracts. Yes, you can be an alien from some
|
||
foreign jurisdiction, you can be a Russian Native who never left Russia or set
|
||
foot in the United States, and still have a liability to produce administrative
|

conformance with Title 26. [545]
|

[545]<div> Aliens from
|
||
foreign political jurisdictions, who do not reside in the United States and
|

accept no political or protectorate benefits from the United States, are still
|
||
very much liable to be bound by Title 26, if they experience any Commercial
|
||
enrichment over here. See EMILY DE GANAY VS. LEDERER, 250 U.S. 376 (1919). [A
|

French Citizen and French resident very much owes equity participation income

taxes to the United States, because she experience Commercial enrichment over

here when she deals in debt instruments such as mortgages, corporate paper, and

securities.] See also similar reasoning in COOK VS. TAIT, 265 U.S. 47 (1923)
|
||
[non-resident aliens who participate in American Commerce are subject to the
|
||
American Income Tax and Citizens residing abroad are liable to pay the Income
|
||
Tax]. The requirement for American Citizens who live abroad and, seemingly, do
|
||
not enjoy any benefits of an American origin, to pay Income Taxes has irritated
|
||
a lot of folks -- see THE FOREIGN EARNED INCOME ACT OF 1978: NON-BENEFITS FOR
|
||
NONRESIDENTS, Editor's Note, 13 Cornell International Law Journal 105, at 107
|
||
(1980) -- but latent overseas benefits are actually being offered and accepted
|
||
by American Citizens who travel over there [the benefit to call upon the local
|
||
diplomatic consular offices for protectorate assistance, and in Title 22,
|
||
Section 1732, there lies a statute which lays upon the President of the United
|
||
States a specific duty to intervene on your behalf whenever American Citizens
|
||
have been incarcerated by foreign jurisdictions. Although those benefits might
|
||
not seem worth such an extravagant percentage demanded of your income, year in
|
||
and year out without any letup or impending relief, the value of those benefits
|
||
to you is a business judgment you need to make, and is not a question that
|
||
should be entertained by a Federal Judge after you have decided to accept those
|
||
benefits -- benefits that are considered to have been accepted by your silence
|
||
[as I will discuss in the next section Federal Reserve Notes].

continuance of the Income Tax down to the present time: To perfect Bolshevik

|

[550]<div> Gremlins
|

typically operate by mildly asking for just one more turn of the screws;
|
||
information propagated around Congress in 1909 (when the proposed 16th
|
||
Amendment was passed by the Congress and sent to the States), and thence
|
||
propagated around the States, was that the American Income Tax during the Civil
|
||
War and in 1894 was only a tiny 3% to 7%, and it only affected the very rich,
|
||
so the passage of this technical little Amendment isn't anything you
|
||
legislators need to concern yourselves with. Our fathers back then fell for
|
||
that line, just as most folks would again fall for it all over again today,
|
||
never bothering to see the latent error in yielding to Gremlins even one tiny
|
||
bit:
|
||
[Speaking in the context of a Celestial Principle]:
|
||
"The old fable which Aesop tells of the woodsman who went into the
|
||
forest to get a handle for his axe describes accurately the position in which
|
||
we find ourselves. The woodsman went and consulted with the trees of the
|
||
forest, asking them to give him a handle for his axe. The other trees, the
|
||
stronger ones, arrogating [means to "claim as one's own"] to themselves
|
||
authority and ignoring the rights of others, thought that they could dispose of
|
||
the smaller trees as they pleased. The larger trees conferred together and
|
||
decided to the grant the woodsman's request, and so they gave to the woodsman
|
||
the Ash tree. The Ash soon fell; but the woodsman had no sooner fitted the
|
||
handle to his axe than he began upon the other trees. He did not stop with the
|
||
Ash, but he also hewed down the Oaks and the Cedars and the great and mighty
|
||
Monarchs of the forest who had surrendered in their pride, the rights of the
|
||
humble Ash. An old Oak was heard to complain to a neighboring Cedar; "If we had
|
||
not given away the rights of the Ash we might have stood forever; but we have
|
||
surrendered to the destroyer the rights of one, and now we are suffering from
|
||
the same evil ourselves."

||
- Orson F. Whitney, in a discourse delivered in the Tabernacle on April
|
||
9, 1885; 26 JOURNAL OF DISCOURSES 194, at 202 [London (1886)]. The fablest
|
||
referred to, AESOP, wrote many Fables with an instructional purpose running
|
||
through them. AESOP is said to have lived about 620 to 560 B.C., and once had a
|
||
relationship with Croesus. A Latin translation of 100 FABULAE AEOPICAE by
|
||
Renutius was published in Rome in 1476, and has since been handed down the
|
||
line. And what Principle applies in a Celestial setting will always apply in a
|
||
worldly setting, as our Creator did not dispense or toss aside his Principles
|
||
when he governed the Creation of this planet architecturally; and the lesson is
|
||
clear: Those who compromise with Gremlins today will be sticking their

descendants with damages, just as we are now stuck with unreasonable levels of

taxation because our fathers once fell for lies and yielded the first step.

Let us examine the Judicial Perspective on federal taxation under the
|
||
Citizenship Contract by way of a Case study. One such ruling touching on the
|
||
Citizenship Contract involves COOK VS. TAIT, [552]
|
||
[552]<div> 265 U.S. 47
|
||
(1924). <div>[552]
|
||
where the Supreme Court ruled that income received by a Citizen of the United
|
||
States while living in Mexico is taxable due to the benefits received while
|
||
outside the United States (the old acceptance of benefits story: When benefits
|
||
that were offered with an expectation of reciprocity back in return have been
|
||
accepted, there lies a contract and it now becomes immoral not to require a
|
||
mandatory exchange of reciprocity). The Court then listed those benefits that
|
||
American Citizens carried with them no matter what their geographical situs
|
||
was. [553]
|
||
[553]<div> Many
|
||
Patriots will be quite familiar with the following widely published words from
|
||
a Supreme Court ruling called HALE VS. HENKEL, 201 U.S. 43 (1915), which
|
||
discusses the difference in rights and duties between Corporations and
|
||
Individuals:
|
||
"The individual... owes no duty to the State, since he receives nothing
|
||
therefrom..."
|
||
- HALE VS. HENKEL, id., at 74. Not once to this day have I ever seen a
|
||
correct discussion of what HALE VS. HENKEL really means: Because it does not
|
||
purport at all to say that Individuals [human beings] are somehow exempt from
|
||
Government taxes that Corporations are required to pay because Individuals are
|
||
made of flesh and bones, and therefore, somehow exempt from duties. Notice how
|
||
the Supreme Court did not try to distinguish between PERSON clothed with
|
||
multiple layers of juristic accoutrements lending to their very appearance a
|
||
special and suggestive flavoring to it -- and INDIVIDUALS without such juristic
|
||
accoutrements [or "liberated"]; the Supreme Court was contrasting Corporate
|
||
entities and Individuals due to the JURISTIC PERSONALITY that benefit
|
||
acceptants clothe themselves with. Knowing what you know now about the
|
||
invisible contracts that are in effect whenever there has been an acceptance of
|
||
benefits, go back and read that line over again. Both Artificial and Natural
|
||
Persons either owe the money, or don't owe the money, based upon their
|
||
acceptance or nonacceptance of juristic benefits, and not based upon their
|
||
biological Status as human INDIVIDUALS (or NATURAL PERSONS, as lawyers would
|
||
call them). If you do accept those juristic benefits, then you very much owe
|
||
the money, regardless of whether or not you are a human Individual (NATURAL
|
||
PERSONS) or a Corporation (an ARTIFICIAL PERSON). I once saw a 7203 WILLFUL
|
||
FAILURE TO FILE prosecution conviction appeal in California where the criminal
|
||
defendant argued that he was exempt from Income Tax Liability because he was an
|
||
"absolute individual," and not a Corporation. When I saw this argument in this
|
||
appeal brief, I felt sorry for him, as I knew he would eventually be
|
||
incarcerated; as that biological Status argument of being a human "individual"
|
||
means nothing -- in fact, actually means less than nothing, as it operates
|
||
negatively against your credibility if there is a disputed element of law or
|
||
fact in a grey area that could have otherwise favored you. Many other folks
|
||
pushing law materials also propagate this fraudulent line (that Title 26 does
|
||
not apply to human individuals, somehow), and they should know better: Because
|
||
your natural biological Status as an "Individual" means absolutely nothing when
|
||
juristic benefits were accepted by you: That is the seminal point of the
|
||
formation of contracts in Nature, and contracts overrule NATURAL LAW RIGHTS
|
||
arguments; if you are having trouble understanding now the reason why contracts
|
||
ascend to the elevated level of priority in Nature like they do -- passing by
|
||
all of the lower arguments sounding in the Tort of fairness and unfairness --
|
||
then you will understand this Principle in no uncertain term at the Last Day.
|
||
[I would like to see Protestors try to snicker at Father at the Last Day, like
|
||
they snicker at Judges now]. In arguing HALE VS. HENKEL, Tax Protestors are
|
||
correct by noting that Corporations are very unique creatures in the Law; they
|
||
are created by Juristic Institutions, and whatever the Juristic Institution
|
||
created, it can modify, rearrange, and dissolve any time, in any manner, and
|
||
under any circumstances that it feels like. For example, such a differential in
|
||
rights surfaced in Rhode Island once, when some judges were discussing the
|
||
relationship in effect between the right of corporations [if RIGHT is the word]
|
||
to pick and choose their own state Residency situs:
|
||
"We do not think a foreign corporation can under any circumstances be
|
||
regarded as a RESIDENT of the state, in the absence of any legislation
|
||
recognizing it or giving it a STATUS as such. The proper seat or "residence" of
|
||
such a corporation is the State which created it and which continues it in
|
||
existence, otherwise the corporation might have its residence in a multitude of
|
||
jurisdictions. The residence of a corporation is created for it by an act of
|
||
law, and can not be changed by act of the corporation. A more permanent
|
||
residence than that of a domestic corporation in the State which created it can
|
||
hardly be conceived."
|
||
- ATTORNEY GENERAL VS. POLICE COMMISSIONERS, 30 Rhode Island 212, at
|
||
220 (1909). As distinguished from Corporations, Individuals can very much pack
|
||
up and move to a new State -- whenever they feel like it; so yes, some
|
||
differences do exist in rights and duties from Corporations to Individuals, but
|
||
Individuals take upon themselves the taxable status of Corporations whenever
|
||
juristic benefits, offered conditionally, have been accepted; under such a
|
||
juristic environment, such an INDIVIDUAL is now a PERSON, and PERSONS, carrying
|
||
the special and suggestive juristic accoutrements around with them like they
|
||
do, are in no position to start arguing for rights or judicially created
|
||
exemptions. <div>[553]

<div>[554]
|
||
Felix Rexach was a native born Puerto Rican, who acquired statutory American
|
||
Citizenship by virtue of the Jones Act of 1917. [555]
|
||
[555]<div> Title 48,
|
||
Section 731, et seq.
|
||
<div>[555]
|
||
In 1944, Felix left Puerto Rico and became a resident of the Dominican
|
||
Republic, where he remained resident until 1961. However, in 1958 Felix
|
||
executed a written renunciation of his American Citizenship before a United
|
||
States consulate official in the Dominican Republic, pursuant to the
|
||
Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952. [556]
|
||
[556]<div> Title 8,
|
||
Section 1481(c).
|
||
<div>[556]
|
||
His renouncement of American Citizenship was accepted without any frictional
|
||
hassles by the United States, and a written Certificate of Loss of Nationality
|
||
was approved by the Department of State. On July 26th of 1958, his desired
|
||
severance away from American Citizenship was perfected as Felix was decreed to
|
||
be a Citizen of the Dominican Republic. [557]
|
||
[557]<div> "Thereafter,
|
||
[Felix] naturally suffered certain losses of status and benefits as a
|
||
consequence of being declared a non-resident alien of the United States."
|
||
- REXACH, id., at 631. See how Federal Judges are just fixated to view
|
||
questions from a BENEFITS perspective; yes BENEFITS are the Center of Gravity
|
||
in the minds of Federal Judges -- that central axis upon which adhesive
|
||
attachments of King's Equity Jurisdiction have their organic point of formation
|
||
into contracts.
|
||
<div>[557]
|
||
Felix was no ordinary fellow, as he busied himself on a large scale by
|
||
contracting activities in the Dominican Republic, contracts obtained by
|
||
associating with its ruling dictator, Trujillo. [558]
|
||
[558]<div> REXACH, id.,
|
||
at 631. <div>[558]
|
||
But fortunes soon turned adverse for Felix when the Dictator he was milking was
|
||
assassinated in 1961. Felix suddenly decided that American Citizenship was now
|
||
desirable, and so in 1962 he applied for reinstatement of his American
|
||
Citizenship by applying for a Passport; claiming that his 1958 renunciation was
|
||
involuntary and had been compelled against his will by reason of physical
|
||
threats and economic pressures. The United States Consul denied his
|
||
application, and on administrative appeal, Felix's testimony was accepted,
|
||
reversing the local Consul, so his Loss of National Certificate was cancelled.
|
||
However, now things turn into an interesting direction, because the Department
|
||
of State, aware of Felix's financial resources, notified the Internal Revenue
|
||
Service that Felix was now an American Citizen again; and so now termites in
|
||
the IRS came out of the woodwork. [559]
|
||
[559]<div> My
|
||
characterization of the Internal Revenue Service as being termites is an
|
||
assessment of the practical effect of those agents doing no more than trying to
|
||
get people to honor their juristic contracts with Royalty. With the Direct IN
|
||
PERSONAM Taxation grab of an Income Tax structurally designed by Gremlins to
|
||
accomplish their objectives of maximum enscrewment damages, IRS Agents are
|
||
caught in the middle of the cross fire, or as the vernacular of the day goes,
|
||
'stuck between a rock and a hard place'; on the one hand doing no more than the
|
||
prevention of defilement under invisible contracts, yet on the other hand they
|
||
are the visible persons responsible for so smoothly eating out the
|
||
Countryside's substance.
|
||
"There is nothing about federal and state employees as a class which
|
||
justifies depriving them or society of the benefits of their participation in
|
||
public affairs. They, like other Citizens, pay taxes and serve their country in
|
||
peace and in war. The taxes they pay and the wars in which they fight are
|
||
determined by the elected spokesman of all people. They come from the same
|
||
homes, communities, schools, churches, and colleges as do other Citizens. I
|
||
think the Constitution guarantees to them the same rights that other groups of
|
||
good Citizens have..."

||

|
||
<div>[559]
|
||
And so deficiency assessments were thrown at Felix for income earned in the
|
||
four intermittent years between his renunciation and his reinstatement. Felix
|
||
ignored the deficiency assessments, and so Internal Revenue termites then threw
|
||
liens on property Felix owned, followed by foreclosure actions. Felix countered
|
||
against the foreclosures by throwing Petitions for Summary Judgements of
|
||
Foreclosure Dismissal at the IRS.
|
||
In his legal arguments seeking to deflect the foreclosure, Felix reasoned that,
|
||
in effect, the reciprocal benefits of Citizenship obligation language in COOK
|
||
VS. TAIT [560]
|
||
[560]<div> 265 U.S. 47
|
||
(1924). <div>[560]
|
||
overruled the unpleasant covenant terms his special statutory Citizenship
|
||
Contract how called for: The preclusion of Felix from claiming, as a matter of
|
||
statutory law, that he ever ceased to be a United States Citizen. Felix argued
|
||
that since the United States had owned him no protection benefits during his
|
||
four year hiatus of alien, that therefore no reciprocal tax was owing in return
|
||
to the United States. The First Circuit disagreed, and countered by ruling
|
||
that:
|
||
"We cannot agree that the reciprocal obligations are mutual, at least
|
||
in the sense that [the] taxpayer contends." [561]
|
||
[561]<div> REXACH, id.,
|
||
at 632. <div>[561]
|
||
So yes, that QUID PRO QUO of reciprocity that I have been talking about all
|
||
along does have to be there, but the failure of Felix to present a proper
|
||
factual setting to the Judicial was fatal on his part Felix reentered the
|
||
stream of Citizenship under contract, and the terms of his contract called for
|
||
the irrelevancy of his alien status, since his loss of Citizenship was
|
||
originally tax avoidance motivated. Felix admitted that he never really ceased
|
||
to be an American Citizen -- and there lies the key to see why the First
|
||
Circuit correctly ruled the way they did. The price one pays for maneuvering
|
||
one's Citizenship [and lying to get it back] to secure self enrichment and
|
||
economic advantage, according to the First Circuit, is continued liability for
|
||
United States taxes. The obligation to pay taxes is thus clearly applicable
|
||
although the Taxpayer who has temporarily abandoned the United States, for
|
||
purposes of pursuing Commercial enrichment, receives no reciprocal benefits
|
||
from the Government. In conclusion, most noteworthy is the last line in Rexach,
|
||
as the First Circuit said that although there is a factual setting that could
|
||
be presented to them where the lack of reciprocal benefits would preclude the
|
||
assessment of Internal Revenue taxes, the factual elements necessary to so rule
|
||
were not present here:
|
||
"The hypothetical [factual setting where a person rejects benefits
|
||
timely and then does not return into a King's Equity relational status with the
|
||
United States at a future time] suggested by taxpayer during oral argument
|
||
involved aspects of estoppel on the part of the Government. Whatever may be the
|
||
merit of such cases, that element is not present here." [562]
|
||
[562]<div> REXACH, id.,
|
||
at 632. <div>[562]
|
||
Well, George, that DICTA was interesting, but could we see a Case where an
|
||
Individual rejects all benefits timely, and then a Federal Court vitiated his
|
||
taxing liability? No, sorry you cannot; [563]
|
||
[563]<div> There is a
|
||
line of Cases in the United States Supreme Court touching on a Citizenship
|
||
Naturalization question while occasionally mentioning taxation, but even in
|
||
those Cases, I am not aware of any explicit statement that exists which
|
||
specifically attaches reciprocal taxation liability for PERSONS holding
|
||
Citizenship, nor is there any explicit indication that Citizenship is a
|
||
contract. To have folks think in terms of contract when addressing Citizenship,
|
||
would result in some folks eventually figuring out that the underlying indicia
|
||
that create commercial contracts might also create political contracts where
|
||
Juristic Institutions are a party thereto; and so it would not be too long
|
||
before folks start figuring out that the seminal point in all commercial
|
||
contracts stand on that practical operation of Nature taking place called
|
||
CONSIDERATION, where benefits are exchanged. And so folks, very properly, would
|
||
then start to examine the passing scene for evidence that Citizens just might
|
||
have also exchanged some unseen benefits here or there -- and such an open
|
||
examination will very much uncover such an evidentiary array of juristic
|
||
benefits accepted in a state of silence. Exemplary of a Supreme Court ruling
|
||
managing not to let the cat out of the bag while talking about Citizenship,
|
||
would the Naturalization Case of ANGELICA SCHNEIDER VS. DEAN RUSK [377 U.S 163
|
||
(1964)]. <div>[563]
|
||
such a published ruling so favorable to us folks out here in the countryside
|
||
does not exist, and will never exist -- as I have been saying all along, Cases
|
||
presented to Federal Judges that come even close to pure Equity severance are
|
||
being sandbagged at low levels, and you will not even be getting a hearing
|
||
before the Supreme Court. [564]
|
||
[564]<div> A Federal
|
||
Judge in Texas told an acquaintance of mine that the reason why he was not
|
||
going to issue out any written ruling on a Citizenship/tax liability question
|
||
that was presented to him in a Case was because the Judge was afraid that such
|
||
an opinion "would threaten the entire tax system" [a literal quotation]. So
|
||
those are the kind of degenerate information sequestration terms Federal Judges
|
||
think in, as they go about their work trying to keep the lid clamped down tight
|
||
on knowledge propagation -- a pretty pathetic objective; and so now the
|
||
published ruling some folks are waiting for -- of a judicial ruling showing by
|
||
example, how step by step a person could terminate altogether his tax
|
||
liability; a ruling that would very much benefits others -- that ruling will
|
||
never make an appearance. Incidentally, notice how Federal Judges conveniently
|
||
refuse to get involved with addressing tough questions like whether or not the
|
||
claimed underlying authenticity of Constitutional Amendments are actually
|
||
fraudulent sources of jurisdiction when used by the King as justification to
|
||
damage people -- by deferring such questions over to "the political departments
|
||
of Government"; yet twist the factual setting around slightly to create
|
||
different philosophical incentives, and Federal Judges very quickly bend over
|
||
backwards to use such purely political concerns like aggregate revenue
|
||
questions as justification to once again avoid doing the right thing.
|
||
<div>[564]
|
||
Those Citizenship Cases are of interest to us as good TOUCHSTONES indicia of
|
||
Citizenship liability and of benefit acceptance in general, but they do not
|
||
meet the Refiner's Fire threshold requirement of just what happens when
|
||
Citizens simple waive and reject all political benefits, that Model Case that
|
||
so many folks are looking for. [565]
|
||
[565]<div> In ancient
|
||
times, the test for purity of Gold was performed with a smooth black stone,
|
||
called a Touchstone. When rubbed across the Gold, the Gold produced a streak or
|
||
mark on the surface of the Touchstone. The goldsmith would then match this mark
|
||
with a chart he had showing different graded colors. The mark left on the
|
||
Touchstone was redder in color as the amount of copper or other alloys
|
||
increased, and was yellower as the percentage of Gold increased. This process
|
||
showed the purity of the Gold within reasonable limits. The Touchstone method
|
||
for testing the quality of Gold was quick and fairly accurate for most common
|
||
purposes; but the goldsmith who, for some special reason, needed more precise
|
||
information on the Gold used a process that involved fire. And by running the
|
||
Gold through the much more intense Refiner's Fire, extremely accurate (as
|
||
accurate went in those days) measurements of the Gold content could then be
|
||
determined. However, the Refiner's Fire process took a lot of additional time,
|
||
and didn't really tell the goldsmith anything that he didn't already know. In
|
||
similar ways, I would suggest that Patriot inactivity (because you are
|
||
"waiting" for the Model Case to come down from on High) is improvident, and
|
||
such a Model Case will not tell you anything you don't already know.
|
||
<div>[565]
|
||
What happens to Citizens who reject the King's benefits? They become Denizens.
|
||
[566]
|
||
[566]<div> In old
|
||
English Common Law, DENIZENS had no political rights, i.e., they could not vote
|
||
or hold office. So by mutuality they also owed no Citizen-like capitation tax
|
||
to the Crown. Although Denizens had occupancy jurisdiction to stay within a
|
||
Kingdom, the only taxes the Crown was able to get out of them was limited to
|
||
the extent that the Denizen participated in Commerce. See generally, James
|
||
Kettner, THE DEVELOPMENT OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP 1608-1870 [University of North
|
||
Carolina Press, Chapel Hill, North Carolina (1976)]. That I am aware of, the
|
||
word DENIZEN appears 21 times in the United States Supreme Court between 1952
|
||
[in ON LEE VS. UNITED STATES, 343 U.S. 747] and 1812 [in FAIRFAX'S DEVISEE VS.
|
||
HUNTER'S LEASEE, 11 U.S. 603]. For example, it is mentioned in LUDECKE VS.
|
||
WATKINS [333 U.S. 160, at 161 (1947)], in the context of a quotation from Title
|
||
50, Section 21 ["Enemy Alien Act"]. BLACK'S FIFTH, in their style of poorly
|
||
written definitions, states that a Denizen is:
|
||
"... in kind of a middle state between an alien and a natural born
|
||
subject, and partakes of the STATUS of both of these."
|
||
- BLACK'S LAW DICTIONARY ["Denizen"], Fifth Edition, [West Publishing,
|
||
St. Paul] and adds that an American judicial definition of Denizen has changed
|
||
somewhat from its historical English counterpart. What DENIZEN means today is
|
||
the same that it has always meant:
|
||
"Our laws give certain privileges [benefits] and withhold certain
|
||
privileges from our adopted subjects, and we may naturally conclude, that there
|
||
may be some qualification of the privilege in the laws of other countries. But
|
||
our resident Denizens are entitled, as I take it, to all sorts of commercial
|
||
privileges, which our natural-born subject can claim."
|
||
- MARRYAT VS. WILSON, a British case (1799). Yes, Denizens do not enjoy
|
||
political franchise rights [nor can they hold elective Government office], but
|
||
they do hold occupancy jurisdiction, and they do enjoy Commercial benefits
|
||
created by the State, and so Denizens were only taxed to the extent they
|
||
participated in Commerce. Back before the Civil War days, Blacks were not
|
||
Citizens of the United States, as only White folks could be Citizens before the
|
||
RECONSTRUCTION AMENDMENTS made their appearance. An Attorney General once spoke
|
||
on how colored persons are not ALIENS and not CITIZENS, yet they are something
|
||
-- but what are they? They are DENIZENS, as Denizens hold occupancy
|
||
jurisdiction, but do not enjoy any juristic benefit originating from the United
|
||
States of a political nature:
|
||
"It is not necessary, in my view of the matter, to discuss the question
|
||
how far a free man of color [meaning a black who was not a slave] may be a
|
||
Citizen, in the highest sense of the word -- that is, one who enjoys in the
|
||
fullest manner all the JURA CIVITATIS under the Constitution of the United
|
||
States... Now free people of color are not ALIENS, they enjoy universally
|
||
(while there has been no express statutable provision to the contrary) the
|
||
rights of Denizens... How far a political STATUS may be acquired is a different
|
||
question, but his civil STATUS is that of a complete Denizenship."
|
||
- Hugh S. Legare, Attorney General of the United States, in
|
||
["Pre-Emption Rights of Colored Persons"], 4 OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
|
||
147, at 147 (March, 1843). Here in the United States of 1985, PERSONS
|
||
participating in that closed private domain of King's Commerce without enjoying
|
||
any political benefits pay the same identical taxes as those who do enjoy
|
||
political benefits; there is no economy now associated with being a Denizen
|
||
pursuing commercial enrichment today. The economy long sought after by Tax
|
||
Protestors will be realized only effectuating a total and pure severance of
|
||
themselves away from the adhesive attachments of King's Equity Jurisdiction,
|
||
which consists of having accepted either Commercial benefits, or of the
|
||
political benefits derived from an operation of Citizenship.
|
||
<div>[566]
|
||
Why are Citizens of the United States now burdened down with such an incredible
|
||
Bolshevik Income Tax Machine, so smoothly eating away at our substance the way
|
||
it does? The answer lies by the acceptance of protectorate benefits the King is
|
||
offering. [567]
|
||
[567]<div> Even if you
|
||
want the protectorate benefits the King is offering, at a minimum it is
|
||
improvident to remain silent on his manipulative use of his administration of
|
||
this contract by Gremlins. Today in 1985, our King is busy with talk of
|
||
negotiating construction suspension agreements with a foreign adversary --
|
||
Russia; called the STRATEGIC ARMS LIMITATION TALKS (SALT). The King wants to
|
||
suspend our production of certain defense hardware in the interest of
|
||
cordialities, a spirit of unilateral disarmament that was publicly initiated in
|
||
1972 with an operation of Royal diplomatic deception called DETENTE. The reason
|
||
why this is of significance is because a war with Russia is on the horizon -- a
|
||
war to be presented to us as a surprise from the world's Gremlins; and folks
|
||
making practical assessments of potential impending events by giving any weight
|
||
to the carefree and factually limited judgment exercised by others is
|
||
improvident. In a previous era, administrative Gremlins working for the King of
|
||
England once pulled off the identical same pre-war measure; but we should not
|
||
really be surprised, as Lucifer finds it unnecessary to change, alter, or
|
||
modify his MODUS OPERANDI, as he goes about his work running one civilization
|
||
into the ground after another. In a news article that could have appeared in
|
||
today's news with only a change in names and technology:
|
||
"There has as yet been no reply from German official quarters to the
|
||
British proposal of a year's suspension of battleship construction. The
|
||
President of the German Naval League has declared Winston Churchill's offer to
|
||
be undeserving of serious consideration; but this is a natural position for a
|
||
president of a naval league to take. In the meanwhile, it is to be noted that
|
||
the German authorities, while fond of speaking of REALPOLITIK -- a policy based
|
||
on frank recognition of actualities instead of sentiment or general principles
|
||
-- have in this matter of the limitation of naval armaments not been quite so
|
||
REAL as they might be... The Kaiser's Ministers usually speak of their naval
|
||
plans as dictated by Germany's Imperial interests and by the necessity of
|
||
safeguarding the Empire's coasts."
|
||
- Editors, 29 THE NATION MAGAZINE, at 375 (October 23, 1913). [THE
|
||
NATION was once a very popular magazine in the United States.] The following
|
||
year, in 1914, the visible public movements of World War I began to surface
|
||
with numerous German offenses made throughout Europe. While Gremlins had been
|
||
hard at work running the defense structure of Great Britain into the ground (of
|
||
which hardware construction suspensions are one such visible manifestation of
|
||
termite management) >and which is taking place in the United States today<, her
|
||
impending adversary, Germany, was building an attack naval fleet -- and not for
|
||
the claimed purpose of "safeguarding of the Empire's coasts," but for military
|
||
attack purposes. Throwing deceptions at planned adversaries to lull them asleep
|
||
is extensively used by Gremlins as a pre-War tool, just like Lucifer's
|
||
deceptive withholding of factual information from his imp assistants on the
|
||
existence of Covenants in effect with Father overruling his Tort damages
|
||
justifications, is a war measure. Mark my words this day in 1985: The more that
|
||
glowing statements are made about missile treaties and arms reduction
|
||
agreements between Russia and the United States, the closer the two are to
|
||
outright war. When the news media tries to emphasize the importance of some new
|
||
"breakthrough" missile agreement, the more imminent are the open hostilities.
|
||
Remember, Gremlins never change a successful MODUS OPERANDI, -- and they deem
|
||
lulling you to sleep to be very important. ...This Second Estate is very much
|
||
adversarial in nature, and all of the rules applicable to deception used by
|
||
Gremlins in war will be found incorporated by Lucifer in his SUB ROSA attacks
|
||
on your impending embryo Celestial Status. And whatever is necessary to get
|
||
folks to bypass their own good judgment and sense of positive responsibility,
|
||
however momentarily uncomfortable, and rely instead upon the more comforting
|
||
passive inactivity and nonchalant judgment of others that ALL IS WELL IN
|
||
IGNORANCE, will be done -- it is being done politically by Americans generally
|
||
ignoring numerous visible signs of an impending domestic military invasion and
|
||
correlative secondary internal damages that will occur in its wake; and it is
|
||
being done Spiritually by getting folks to ignore and toss aside any concern
|
||
for a known impending Judgment and replacing that concern with the more
|
||
comforting sugar-coated assurance that, yes, since they have accepted Jesus
|
||
Christ, they will be Saved, and they don't need concern themselves with
|
||
anything else -- some hokey religion out there -- baah.

|

["Sovereignty"], at page 198, et seq. [The Belknap Press of the Harvard

|
||
and uncovered some 400 pamphlets on all sorts of writings that he reviewed --
|
||
treatises on political theory, essays on history, political arguments, sermons,

"In these sentiments, sir, I agree to this Constitution, with all of

QUESTION: How does someone get rid of his Citizenship Contract without packing
|
||
their bags and leaving the United States physically, as the King would like his
|
||
little subjects to do? [572]

|

commentary on loss of Citizenship for any one of several reasons, see:

|
||
DISCLAIM CITIZENSHIP in 15 Vanderbuilt Journal of Transnational Law 123
|
||
(Winter, 1982). When money is at stake, Federal Judges have noted that all of a
|
||
sudden the traditional allure of possessing American Citizenship now suddenly
|
||
takes upon itself an unattractive dimension:
|
||
"... since United States Citizenship is considered by most to be a
|
||
prized status, it is usually the Government which claims that the Citizen has
|
||
lost it, over the vigorous opposition of the person facing the loss. In this
|
||
rare case the roles are reversed. Here the estate of a wealthy deceased United
|
||
States Citizen seeks to establish over the Government's opposition that she
|
||
expatriated herself. As might be suspected, the reason is several million
|
||
dollars in tax liability, which the estate might escape if it could sustain the
|
||
burden of showing that the deceased lost her United States Citizenship."
|
||
- UNITED STATES VS. MATHESON, 532 F.2nd 809, at 811 (1976). The only
|
||
reason why folks want out of the reciprocal taxation demands of Citizenship is
|
||
because the cost of Citizenship is obviously, if given but a few moments
|
||
thought, for the null paltry value of the juristic benefits justifying it, not
|
||
worth the price tag that looters and Gremlins are demanding through their
|
||
juristic enrichment instrumentality, the King. Rather than snickering at
|
||
ex-Protestors who wised up a little, Federal Judges would be smart to start to
|
||
create remedies negating the unlawful use of the Legislature by looters and
|
||
Gremlins [of which dormant and forgotten Clauses now exist in the
|
||
Constitution], which is the true seminal point of origin as to why the
|
||
Countryside is now reacting negatively to avoid and terminate unreasonable
|
||
taxation demands not related to benefit equivalence. [Remember that your
|
||
consent, individually, is very important adhesive material in the formation of
|
||
contracts; see ASSENT AND ACCOUNTABILITY IN CONTRACT: AN ANALYSIS OF OBJECTIVE
|
||
STANDARDS IN CONTEMPORARY CONTRACT ADJUDICATION by Brian Blum, 59 St. John's
|
||

||
Law that needs to be correctly understood and handled, so that the contract can
|
||
be annulled properly.]

|
||
ANSWER: The same way one gets rid of any other contract. [573]
|
||
[573]<div> Yes, such a
|
||
simple solution as that to remedy taxation ailments, and many folks will not
|
||
associate any significance to it. Sometimes the most profound circumstances in
|
||
life are not understood for what they really mean, as folks frequently fail to
|
||
correlate previous events that have already occurred as harbinger models that
|
||
foreshadow future events yet to make their appearance. ... For example,
|
||
previous circumstances, seemingly innocent, that once transpired in Downtown
|
||
San Francisco in 1969 regarding the construction of the Transamerica
|
||
Corporation pyramid office tower will one day be replicated synchronously all
|
||
across the United States. John Beckett, President of Transamerica Corporation,
|
||
wanted to build a 55-story high-rise on Montgomery Street to house the offices
|
||
of Transamerica. The announcement of the plans for the tower immediately
|
||
generated a heavy controversy locally; this was the Vietnam era where Bay area
|
||
protesting was in vogue. After making preliminary inquiries to San Francisco
|
||
planning and zoning officials, the building was downsized to 48 stories.
|
||
Numerous environmental groups (such as THE ENVIRONMENT WORKSHOP), neighborhood
|
||
associations (such as the TELEGRAPH HILL DWELLERS ASSOCIATION), and other
|
||
assorted individuals (such as activist Alvin Daskin) just looking for something
|
||
tame to challenge -- let it be known that they disapproved of these plans.
|
||
Numerous other professional architectural groups from surrounding areas (such
|
||
as the CALIFORNIA CHAPTER OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF PLANNERS), otherwise
|
||
normally passive, also entered into this arena to throw their opposition
|
||
invectives at the proposed Transamerica Tower. Public interest attorneys (like
|
||
Peter A. Gunnufsen) filed lawsuits, attempting to seek judicial restraining
|
||
orders halting the construction on technical grounds relating to procedures
|
||
used by the City of San Francisco to transfer a public street to Transamerica.
|
||
During hearings held by city officials across the summer of 1969, protest
|
||
groups would hold vigils and march outside City Hall to express their dissent
|
||
from this heinous outrage. But Mayor Joseph Alioto and a majority of City
|
||
Supervisors wanted the high-rise to be built, as they made numerous references
|
||
to the $1000000 annual contribution this tower would be making to the San
|
||
Francisco tax rolls. A unique confluence of incentives came into focus at the
|
||
end of 1969 that pressured Transamerica President John Beckett to act in the
|
||
unusual, sneaky and clever way that he did, in order to get the tower built --
|
||
the same UNUSUAL, SNEAKY, and CLEVER ways that all Americans, and even the
|
||
entire world, will one day be very well acquainted with, but for very different
|
||
objectives: Because next time around, building a high-rise will not be the
|
||
objective.
|
||
For many years the California State Legislature in Sacramento had
|
||
encouraged insurance companies to locate home offices in California by allowing
|
||
them to deduct from their state income taxes whatever amount those companies
|
||
had paid in local property taxes on a headquarters building. This generous
|
||
state taxation statute contributed to San Francisco's status as the financial
|
||
center of the American West, and to the placement of several high-rises in San
|
||
Francisco's skyline. But this state statute was due to expire at the end of
|
||
1969 for buildings constructed after this date; and if John Beckett could not
|
||
get the SITE PERMIT issued and at least some construction started by December
|
||
31st, then his proposed high-rise would not qualify for the special $1000000
|
||
annual property tax deductions. The first day in December had arrived with the
|
||
City Supervisor's formal approval, but Transamerica still needed a SITE PERMIT,
|
||
which would permit ground to be broken and construction thereby to commence.
|
||
Time was running out, but John Beckett had a few ideas of his own. These were
|
||
very adversary proceedings he was swirling in, and with the opposition
|
||
ventilating their hot air, being determined to kill this project but dead --
|
||
that would be the opposition's way of making their STATEMENT. Going into the
|
||
first week of December, the paper work in City Hall to issue out a SITE PERMIT
|
||
was gaining momentum. The opposition, lead by lawyers, knew that their only
|
||
hope was to file a SITE PERMIT appeal, which would automatically delay
|
||
construction until another hearing on the Appeal could be heard in the
|
||
following year. However, such an appeal by the opposition could not be made
|
||
until the SITE PERMIT itself had first been issued. In early December, both
|
||
sides watched the paperwork going back and forth in City Hall, with the
|
||
opposition actually having arranged for observers to man the PERMIT desk and
|
||
the Montgomery Street construction site to watch for movements by Transamerica.
|
||
By mid-December, the permit paperwork had been completed, and the opposition
|
||
intensified its watch of City Hall like an English Hunting Dog at Full Point;
|
||
the opposition had their own plans to appeal the SITE PERMIT immediately after
|
||
its issuance to block construction until the following year -- but John Beckett
|
||
was playing his cards with an ace tucked up his sleeves, because when he had
|
||
hired Dinwiddie Construction Corporation to be the contractor on the building,
|
||
he had given them very special instructions. That long awaited December day
|
||
arrived when Transamerica decided it was ready to pick up the SITE PERMIT and
|
||
start construction on the Transamerica high-rise. One morning an unknown
|
||
representative of Dinwiddie Construction went to City Hall and made sure that
|
||
the SITE PERMIT was available for the asking, which it was. During the noon
|
||
lunch hour, a Transamerica corporate vice-president, dressed in farmer's
|
||
overall's, arrived at City Hall in an old pickup truck; he did not want his
|
||
true identity to be recognized by the opposition and their watchers. The VP
|
||
looked plain, he looked normal, he looked like an everyday type of ordinary Joe
|
||
-- why, he "... just couldn't possibly have nutin' to do with no big important
|
||
high-rise." Having picked up the SITE PERMIT undetected, he phoned ahead to
|
||
the construction supervisor, who was hiding in a restaurant across the street
|
||
from where the Transamerica Tower was to be built. The go-signal having been
|
||
received, all of a sudden a construction crew appeared at the Montgomery Street
|
||
site out of nowhere. Literally within minutes, heavy construction equipment
|
||
that had been quietly sneaked into Downtown San Francisco and hidden away under
|
||
covers in a nearby basement excavation, surfaced into the open and went to
|
||
work. To the cheers of the tiny crowd conducting the abbreviated groundbreaking
|
||
ceremonies, the bulldozer bit through the surface of the parking lot while
|
||
other construction equipment went to work excavating at the Transamerica site.
|
||
Just an hour later the same day, word came that a SITE PERMIT APPEAL had been
|
||
quickly filed -- but as exceptionally quick as the opposition was, they were
|
||
too late, as commencement of construction bars appeal.
|
||
[See: John Krizek [manager of Public Relations for Transamerica] in
|
||
PUBLIC RELATIONS JOURNAL ["How to Build a Pyramid"], at page 17 (December,
|
||
1970). The opposition lingered on even after construction started -- see
|
||
BUSINESS WEEK ["Beautiful Building of Inhuman Eyesore?"], page 41 (October 31,
|
||
1970). Clippings taken from the two local newspapers, the SAN FRANCISCO
|
||
CHRONICLE and the SAN FRANCISCO EXPRESS supplied the details herein, through
|
||
the HISTORY ROOM ["Transamerica File"] of the San Francisco Public Library].
|
||
... One day off in the future, this clever little harbinger act that John
|
||
Beckett once pulled off is going to happen al over again under circumstances
|
||
that the entire world will take rather strong notice of. Nothing will change
|
||
the next time around, other than that the desired end objective will be
|
||
different. Next time, instead of an American Corporate President like John
|
||
Beckett pulling off something quick and clever to get the upper hand over
|
||
adversaries, next time, a Russian General will be supervising the logistics.
|
||
Instead of heavy construction equipment being sneaked into urban areas and then
|
||
pulled out into the open quickly, next time heavy Russian tanks, personnel
|
||
carriers, and attack support equipment will come forth one day out of their
|
||
hiding places to roll down American streets to grab the police barracks and
|
||
nearby Army Base. Next time, instead of a handful of environmental activists
|
||
left scratching their heads, puzzled as to how John Beckett pulled off that
|
||
instant appearance of construction equipment -- next time all Americans will be
|
||
asking themselves the same question: How did they sneak in all of those tanks,
|
||
helicopters, and the like? Where did those SPACE PLATFORMS come from? Where
|
||
were all those tank stashed away? Yes, it is going to happen, just like John
|
||
Beckett has already made it happen once before on a small introductory scale in
|
||
San Francisco. Just like major media news correspondents -- those pathetic
|
||
little idiots -- expressing amazement on how well organized the North
|
||
Vietnamese were in their take-over of Saigon in April of 1975, folks who
|
||
actually rely on the caliber of such baneful judgement (like news
|
||
correspondents who were amazed that professional Gremlins actually knew what
|
||
they were doing), will also find themselves being amazed when we are next. The
|
||
only folks who are ever surprised by passing events are those who live most
|
||
distant from reality -- and a very good way to become removed from reality is
|
||
to rely on those incompetent clowns in the news media who were amazed that
|
||
professional Gremlins practicing COUPS D'ETAT for some 200 years might just
|
||
know what they are doing.
|
||
[I come down hard on Journalists for the same reason that I come down
|
||
hard on Lawyers: Both professions involve the presentation of intellectual
|
||
material to others; so when they mess up, then out comes my invectives.
|
||
However, when an everyday type of Joe SixPack messes up, I respond with
|
||
patience and instructional counseling. In contrast these Joe SixPacks do not
|
||
represent themselves as being professionals, so Joe SixPacks are not held to
|
||
the more stringent standards that Journalists and Lawyers seeking financial
|
||
compensation for their errors are held to.] The instant appearance of
|
||
construction crews that John Beckett pulled off was not even considered as a
|
||
factual possibility by this opponents; just like Russian opposition in the
|
||
United States [alleged tough cookie right-wing CONSERVATIVES self-perceiving
|
||
themselves as being pretty sharp politically] are not even considering the
|
||
factual possibility that Mikhail Gorbachev's superiors have already had planned
|
||
out long ago similar American domestic instant appearance circumstances in
|
||
extended and considerable detail. They fully intend to clean out the Gremlins
|
||
in Washington, as they have been setup [meaning provoked] to do under
|
||
attractive Bolshevik inducement. Nothing ever changes from one setting to the
|
||
next. Learning in a small way that getting out of an automobile lease contract
|
||
is accomplished by getting rid of the benefit acceptance by returning the car
|
||
physically to the owner, and not by filing worthless NOTICES OF RECESSION OF
|
||
CONTRACT, IN REM -- that is prepatory to learn that it is the same simple
|
||
solution to get out of the adhesive juristic reciprocity demanded under
|
||
Citizenship Contracts: Get rid of those benefits and stop snickering at Federal
|
||
Judges cracking defiled giblets. By not even considering the factual
|
||
possibility, however remote, that the tax prosecution defendant may himself be
|
||
in error, having listened to the distractions of Protestors talking about why
|
||
the Federal Government is not entitled to prevail due to multiple LEX
|
||
deficiencies of some type, the tax prosecution defendants finds himself exactly
|
||
where John Beckett's opponents once found themselves [and exactly where
|
||
CONSERVATIVES, so called, will also one day be finding themselves]: Out smarted
|
||
by adversaries who have a few ideas of their own, and for the same reason.
|
||
<div>[573]
|
||
But lawyers throwing technical arguments at Federal Judges in Tax and Draft
|
||
Protesting cases have never bothered to see Citizenship from the judicial
|
||
trajectory of benefits and retained reciprocity expectations, so lawyers have
|
||
never correctly handled Tax and Draft Protestors in counsel, and lawyers will
|
||
continue to throw technical arguments at Judges [just like Tax Protestors]
|
||
trying to explain why the King is wrong, until such time as the latent high
|
||
powered juristic velocity instrument of Citizenship is identified for what it
|
||
really is: A contract. [574]
|
||
[574]<div> Many
|
||
commentators have noted that the relational status of American Citizens to the
|
||
Federal Government today is quite similar to the relational status experienced
|
||
by SUBJECTS in the old monarchial days of the Kings of England. Even though
|
||
contemporary Americans are now called CITIZENS, many lost rights, benefits,
|
||
protections, together with unfairly skewed reciprocal duties and liabilities
|
||
that characterize the subparity relationship of old Britannic SUBJECTS, are in
|
||
effect today -- hence as well my characterization of the Executive Branch of
|
||
the United States as a KING.
|
||
One writer who elucidates very well on this status declension of Americans from
|
||
being CITIZENS holding the upper hand, down to SUBJECTS doing what they are
|
||
told and paying what they are told to pay, is Francis X. Hennessy in his book
|
||
about the 18th Amendment entitled CITIZENS OR SUBJECT? Even though Americans
|
||
are still called CITIZENS today in name [an initially impressive but
|
||
meaningless characterization substantively] the Kingly status that the American
|
||
Revolution of 1776 once created for us all [as the Supreme Court noted in
|
||
GEORGE VS. BRAILSFORD] has been reversed back to the Crown again, through the
|
||
devilish maneuverings of Gremlins. Back in the early American Colonial days the
|
||
political factions in America were split into WHIGS and TORIES -- and knowledge
|
||
of the philosophical distinction between the two is being withheld from
|
||
American high school history books here in the 1980's for a very good reason:
|
||
TORIES were sympathetic with the Aristocratic Class who simply had to have the
|
||
masses controllable and their pockets reachable for some looting; Tories do not
|
||
want a nation of CITIZENS, they want fleeceable SUBJECTS. Today, Tory
|
||
Aristocrats are filthy little creatures who want to use Juristic Institutions
|
||
to transfer money from your pockets to theirs. Where with the 18th Amendment,
|
||
Tories wanted to use the guns of Government to create PROHIBITION, so that they
|
||
could then practice commercial enrichment in the BLACK MARKET of elevated
|
||
prices and restricted competition that all exclusion monopolies creates. Some
|
||
of the most prominent American families had been sponsoring the WOMAN'S
|
||
CHRISTIAN TEMPERANCE LEAGUE and other nominees using deceptive names, to
|
||
plaster the countryside with the noble and lofty sounding objectives of ridding
|
||
drunks from our society -- while all along the sponsors of PROHIBITION could
|
||
care less about drunks and merely wanted to experience the commercial
|
||
enrichment a BLACK MARKET creates. Today, other plant derivatives have replaced
|
||
alcohol in the statutes now creating another BLACK MARKET, while second and
|
||
third generational descendants of those same identical American families
|
||
smuggle cocaine and marijuana instead of bourbon. Today, a Tory sympathizer is
|
||
a jealous person who wants to be sure that everyone else is paying their taxes;
|
||
a Tory sympathizer is someone who is content with the STATUS QUO as it has been
|
||
brought to its present position by Gremlins, and has no desire to return to our
|
||
Father's quiescent STATUS QUO ANTE. A Tory sympathizer is a little dupe who
|
||
feels good about going off to a foreign country to fight a war -- because the
|
||
President says its Patriotic to do so. Yes, a Tory sympathizer plays into the
|
||
hands of Gremlins by giving them what they want -- as Gremlins want the
|
||
contemporary STATUS QUO, the foreign wars, and BLACK MARKETS they have created.
|
||
"Whenever Government exists, even Government limited to those powers
|
||
thought by its Citizens necessary to secure human liberty, the weakness of
|
||
human nature makes it certain that the exercise of granted powers will not
|
||
always be for the common benefit of the Citizens who grant them. When the
|
||
Government is the State and human beings its SUBJECTS, that weakness is usually
|
||
more apparent. As a result, in every country the rich and powerful largely
|
||
secure the actual control of the Government. That they may entrench themselves
|
||
in its control and exercise of even its lawful powers, they lavish favors on a
|
||
class actually large in number but comparatively constituting a small minority
|
||
of the people of the country. For this [Aristocratic] class, it is of material
|
||
advantage [to them] that Government should be the State and the people its
|
||
SUBJECTS. When a man is born or educated as a member of this [Aristocratic]
|
||
minority, it is beyond the experience of the human race that his mental
|
||
attitude should not regard the relation of SUBJECT to ruler as the proper
|
||
relation of human being to Government."
|
||
- Francis X. Hennessy in CITIZEN OR SUBJECT? ["The Exiled Tory About To
|
||
Return"], at 235 [E.P. Dutton, New York (1923)]. Gremlins want such a KING TO
|
||
SUBJECT relational status in effect specifically for purposes of conquest and
|
||
furthering their own proprietary enrichment through taxation enstripment.
|
||
Francis Hennessy, an attorney and member of the New York State Bar, goes into
|
||
highly detailed factual recital of the circumstances surrounding the proposal
|
||
and later ratification of the 18th Amendment [the PROHIBITION AMENDMENT]. From
|
||
debates on the Floor of the Congress to the inner sanctums of Gremlin power,
|
||
Francis Hennessy chronicles out the impediments, headaches, and legal
|
||
difficulties the sponsors of the 18th Amendment had in 1917 trying to force
|
||
Prohibition on us all, by virtue of the fact that the United States
|
||
Constitution is a hybrid composite blend of NATIONAL and FEDERAL power, and
|
||
therefore requires different procedures to effectuate modifications, based on
|
||
the nature of the right being modified. This was one of the legal arguments
|
||
considered by the Supreme Court when the underlying legality of the 18th
|
||
Amendment itself came under attack [see THE NATIONAL PROHIBITION CASES, 253
|
||
U.S. 350 (1920)]. Because the nature of the right that the Congress was about
|
||
to deprive American Citizens of [the right to eat or drink anything they feel
|
||
like] was of a NATIONAL nature, the proposed 18th Amendment was worded in such
|
||
a way as to circumvent the Constitution's ARTICLE 5 CONVENTION requirement by
|
||
subtly commanding the States to first enact Prohibition legislation (see
|
||
Section 2 of the 18th Amendment). Yes, Gremlins are well-oiled experts at both
|
||
political circumvention, as well as running Citizens into the ground. A
|
||
devilishly brilliant MODUS OPERANDI that if not understood now, will be
|
||
understood in no uncertain terms when, during the impending CONSTITUTIONAL
|
||
CONVENTION that is close to being called, Gremlins using slick Parliamentary
|
||
devices divert the floor proceedings away from the BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT
|
||
over to discussing an entire new Constitution altogether -- THEIR Constitution.
|
||
All of a sudden, folks who thought they had the situation under control by
|
||
having State Legislatures self-restrict the content being discussed at that
|
||
Convention to consider only the proposed BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT, will see
|
||
then that they were outsmarted by imps, as they will also be outsmarted by
|
||
either Mikhail Gorbachev or his successors, who have a few ideas of their own
|
||
on how to control Gremlins in Washington.
|
||
<div>[574]
|
||
As a point of beginning, contracts are entered into by the acceptance of
|
||
benefits, and they are terminated by the explicit disavowal rejecting benefits
|
||
[as I will explain later in the next section on Federal Reserve Notes]. And
|
||
Citizenship is one of the most important contracts the Judiciary takes Notice
|
||
of for purposes of perfecting taxation enstripment. [575]
|
||
[575]<div> But this
|
||
great revenue contract of Citizenship is also the greatest weakness the King
|
||
has, due to the dual stratified nature of American Juristic Institutions being
|
||
layered into State and Federal slabs. Because of this STATE TO FEDERAL satrapic
|
||
relational setting, the Federal Citizenship and State Citizenship are sourced
|
||
from different jurisdictional origins, and are separate and distinct legal
|
||
relationships. The weakness of Citizenship surfaces by reason of the fact that
|
||
our King is without and wanting jurisdiction to tax State Citizens [the King
|
||
acquires the requisite jurisdiction by consent, obtainable through several
|
||
channels]. Yes, there are numerous technical grounds for beating the King, as
|
||
well as fundamental grounds, but the entire orientation of such a defense
|
||
posture necessarily gravitates around the error present in an adversary -- not
|
||
a very secure way to win a battle, without having to turn around and keep
|
||
looking over your shoulder [always looking for some new LEX deficiency or Court
|
||
Opinion somewhere]. The remedy to these legal impediments (of which there are
|
||
quite a few), are more and more corrective slices of LEX being thrown into an
|
||
organic Title 26. The very fact that some Congress off in the 1990's enacts a
|
||
statute declaring that State Citizens are PERSONS adhered to Title 26,
|
||
automatically admits in inference that all previous income taxation dollars
|
||
collected by the King were illicitly looted -- absent express contracts.
|
||
...Eventually, this letter will filter down and circulate throughout the
|
||
corridors of prosecution officialdom [as the King does have his ears close to
|
||
the ground]; and if there is any Government attorney out there who can show me
|
||
where the King has the jurisdiction -- either Case Law or Statutory
|
||
pronouncements -- to tax State Citizens residing in the States, then please
|
||
come forth and now do so. I would like to see the citation that shows where
|
||
Title 26 applies to State Citizens residing in the several States. The right to
|
||
tax is the right to throw juristic benefits at folks creating invisible implied
|
||
contracts, and then turn around and demand financial reciprocity in return
|
||
pursuant to an ADHESION covenant therein. The King's Federal Jurisdiction is
|
||
necessarily limited to the exclusive legislative jurisdiction of the United
|
||
States Congress -- meaning limited to Federal Employees, residents of the
|
||
District of Columbia and Federal Territories, and other Federal Enclaves.
|
||
QUESTION: Is that closed private domain of King's Commerce a Federal Enclave?
|
||
Is the acceptance of Federal protectorate benefits the creation of a situation
|
||
specific AD HOC Federal Enclave? I am not really interested in arguing those
|
||
questions, because I am not interested in probing for error in others. I would
|
||
rather vacate the acceptance of all Federal benefits from off of the record,
|
||
work the King into an immoral position of having made an Assessment in want of
|
||
a QUID PRO QUO equivalence having been exchanged, and then have an
|
||
administrative sandbagging effected on my Case: Because clean NO WIN Cases are
|
||
in fact dropped by the King's termites in the IRS -- who know when it's best to
|
||
throw in the towel, call it a day, and go chase after another piece of meat.
|

|
||
And so it is the explicit rejection of juristic benefits that will sever the
|
||
adhesive reciprocal liability of King's Equity Jurisdiction that attaches
|
||
itself invisibly to everyone else.
|
||
So getting rid of your National Citizenship, while very important, is only a
|
||
first step, and there are numerous other invisible contracts that you need to
|
||
concern yourselves with, if you are to leave the Bolshevik Income Tax grab
|
||
without leaving any lingering illicit Equity trail behind you. [576]
|
||
[576]<div> In a limited
|
||
sense today, the relationship of the world's political jurisdictions to the
|
||
United Nations is somewhat structurally similar to the pre-1787 relationship in
|
||
effect between the various American State political jurisdictions and the
|
||
CONFEDERACY in Washington. The old CONFEDERACY back then had no serious taxing
|
||
power of any significance, and had to make financial requisitions to its member
|
||
States. There was no National American Citizenship back then that could enable
|
||
the national Government to bypass the States and go directly to the common
|
||
folks for money, either. That relational model is somewhat similar to what the
|
||
world's numerous political jurisdictions are involved with today in the United
|
||
Nations -- today the United Nations has no power to tax, makes financial
|
||
contribution requests to member Nations, and there is no World Citizenship.
|
||
With that modeling scenario in mind, consider the following: Citizenship is
|
||
known up and down the corridors of Gremlin power world wide as being a very
|
||
interesting adhesive source of Object Jurisdiction to loot. For example, even
|
||
if the atrophied remnants of the Rockefeller Cartel are unsuccessful in
|
||
convincing Americans to hand over their national Sovereignty to some world
|
||
Juristic Institution like the United Nations, then one of the ways that the ONE
|
||
WORLDERS could largely accomplish their Grand Objectives of global conquest
|
||
through global Government, is to stop trying to get the various national
|
||
Sovereignties throughout the world to forfeit over their Sovereignty (which
|
||
isn't very likely anyway), and just create an invisible attachment of Equity
|
||
Jurisdiction by creating World Citizenship. In bypassing individual regional
|
||
political jurisdictions this way [American Citizens are free to enter into
|
||
contracts with the United Nations, or any other political jurisdiction in the
|
||
world], income taxes and the like can be collected from its Citizens in
|
||
reciprocating exchange for some benefits that will be created; and with World
|
||
Citizenship in place, handy regulatory jurisdictions, licensing, and other
|
||
favorite Bolshevik enscrewment tools can be erected. Gremlins in the
|
||
Rockefeller Nest have already given this idea some thought; see an interview
|
||
with imp Robert Hutchins in THE CENTER MAGAZINE, ["What the World Needs Now is
|
||
Citizens"], page 23 (January/February, 1971). The Gremlin drive for World
|
||
Citizenship has been in gestation for some time; see EDUCATION FOR WORLD
|
||
CITIZENSHIP by William George Can [Stanford University Press, Stanford,
|
||
California (1928)]. Under the classical contours of INTERNATIONAL LAW, only
|
||
political jurisdictions were subjects accountable to it, and individuals were
|
||
simply not included; while the Nuremberg Trials changed all this on an AD HOC
|
||
basis, the status of people as being STRANGERS to INTERNATIONAL LAW continues
|
||
on down to the present day -- but when the adhesive Equity tentacles of World
|
||
Citizenship are nestled in place someday, the world's Gremlins will be ecstatic
|
||
on that grand impending day when an operation of the World Court reaches
|
||
through to individuals world wide, transparent to any prospectively beneficent
|
||
intervention on your behalf from any other jurisdiction [just like today when
|
||
your State will not intervene in any manner whatsoever on your behalf when
|
||
Federal Marshals come knocking on your door]. For a commentary on the
|
||
relational setting in effect between individuals and INTERNATIONAL LAW that is
|
||
neither critical nor justifying the enlargement of INTERNATIONAL LAW that took
|
||
place at Nuremberg, see THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL UNDER
|
||
INTERNATIONAL LAW by Ernst Schneedberger in 35 Georgetown Law Journal, 481
|
||
(1947). <div>[576]
