"All systems
of government suppose they are to be administered by men of
common sense and common honesty. In our country,
as all ultimately depends on the voice of
the people, they have
it in their power, and it is to be presumed they generally will
choose men of this description: but if they will not, the case,
to be sure, is without remedy. If they choose fools, they will
have foolish laws. If they choose knaves, they will have knavish
ones. But this can never be the case until they are
generally fools or knaves themselves, which, thank God, is not
likely ever to become the character of the American people."

We very thoroughly covered the foundations
of our republican form of government earlier in chapter 4.
We showed you in section 4.1 the
hierarchy
of sovereignty and where you fit personally in that hierarchy.
We showed you in section 4.5 that
Article 4, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution guarantees to
all Americans a “republican
form of government”. Then in section 5.1.1 we showed you
the order that our state and federal governments were created and
the distinct sovereignties that comprise all the elements of our
republican political system. Now we are going to tie the whole
picture together and show you graphically the tools and techniques
that specific covetous government servants have used over the years
to corrupt and debase that system for their own personal financial
and political benefit.
"The king establishes the land by
justice;
but he who receives bribes overthrows it."
[Prov.
29:4, Bible, NKJV]
After you have learned these techniques by
which corruption is introduced, we will spend the rest of the chapter
showing exactly how these techniques have been specifically
applied over the years to corrupt and debase and destroy our political
system and undermine our personal liberties, rights, and freedoms.
This will train your perception to be on the lookout for any future
attempts by our covetous politicians to further corrupt our system
so that you can act swiftly at a political level to oppose and prevent
it.
First of all, the foundation of our republican
form of government is the concept of separation of powers.
This concept is called the “Separation
of Powers Doctrine”:
"Separation
of powers. The governments of the states and the
United States are divided into three departments or branches:
the legislative, which is empowered to make laws, the executive
which is required to carry out the laws, and the judicial which
is charged with interpreting the laws and adjudicating disputes
under the laws. Under this constitutional doctrine of
"separation of powers," one branch is not permitted to encroach
on the domain or exercise the powers of another branch.
See U.S. Constitution, Articles I-III. See also Power
(Constitutional Powers)."
[Black’s Law Dictionary, Sixth Edition, p. 1365]
Here is how no less than the U.S. Supreme Court
described the purpose of this separation of powers:
"We start with first principles. The Constitution creates
a Federal Government of enumerated powers. See U.S. Const.,
Art. I, 8. As James Madison wrote, "[t]he powers delegated by
the proposed Constitution to
the federal government are few and defined. Those which
are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite."
The Federalist No. 45, pp. 292-293 (C. Rossiter ed. 1961).
This constitutionally mandated division of authority "was adopted
by the Framers to ensure protection of our fundamental liberties."
Gregory v. Ashcroft,
501 U.S. 452, 458 (1991) (internal quotation marks omitted).
"Just as the separation and independence of the coordinate branches
of the Federal Government serves to prevent the accumulation
of excessive power in any one branch, a healthy balance of power
between the States and the Federal Government will reduce the
risk of tyranny and abuse from either front." Ibid.
[U.S. v. Lopez,
514 U.S. 549 (1995)]
The founding fathers believed that
men were inherently corrupt. They believed that absolute power
corrupts absolutely so they avoided concentrating too much power
into any single individual.
"When all government, domestic and foreign, in little as
in great things, shall be drawn to Washington as the center
of all power, it will render powerless the checks provided of
one government on another and will become as venal and oppressive
as the government from which we separated."
[Thomas Jefferson to Charles Hammond, 1821. ME 15:332]
"Our government is now taking so steady a course as to show
by what road it will pass to destruction; to wit: by consolidation
first and then corruption, its necessary consequence. The engine
of consolidation will be the Federal judiciary; the two other
branches the corrupting and corrupted instruments."
[Thomas Jefferson to Nathaniel Macon, 1821. ME 15:341]
"The [federal] judiciary branch is the instrument which,
working like gravity, without intermission, is to press us at
last into one consolidated mass."
[Thomas Jefferson to Archibald Thweat, 1821. ME 15:307]
"There is no danger I apprehend so much as the consolidation
of our government by the noiseless and therefore unalarming
instrumentality of the Supreme Court."
[Thomas Jefferson to William Johnson, 1823. ME 15:421]
"I wish... to see maintained that wholesome distribution
of powers established by the Constitution for the limitation
of both [the State and General governments], and never to see
all offices transferred to Washington where, further withdrawn
from the eyes of the people, they may more secretly be bought
and sold as at market."
[Thomas Jefferson to William Johnson, 1823. ME 15:450]
"What an augmentation of the field for jobbing, speculating,
plundering, office-building and office-hunting would be produced
by an assumption of all the State powers into the hands of the
General Government!"
[Thomas Jefferson to Gideon Granger, 1800. ME 10:168]
"I see,... and with the deepest affliction, the rapid strides
with which the federal branch of our government is advancing
towards the usurpation of all the rights reserved to the States,
and the consolidation in itself of all powers, foreign and domestic;
and that, too, by constructions which, if legitimate, leave
no limits to their power... It is but too evident that the three
ruling branches of [the Federal government] are in combination
to strip their colleagues, the State authorities, of the powers
reserved by them, and to exercise themselves all functions foreign
and domestic."
[Thomas Jefferson to William Branch Giles, 1825. ME 16:146]
"We already see the [judiciary] power, installed for life,
responsible to no authority (for impeachment is not even a scare-crow),
advancing with a noiseless and steady pace to the great object
of consolidation. The foundations are already deeply laid by
their decisions for the annihilation of constitutional State
rights and the removal of every check, every counterpoise to
the engulfing power of which themselves are to make a sovereign
part."
[Thomas Jefferson to William T. Barry, 1822. ME 15:388]

They instead wanted an egalitarian and utopian
society. They loathed the idea of a king because they had
seen how corrupt the monarchies of Europe had become by reading
the history books. They loathed it so much that they specifically
prohibited titles of nobility in Article 1, Section 9, Clause 8:
U.S. Constitution; Article 1, Section 9, Clause 8
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States:
And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them,
shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present,
Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any
King, Prince or foreign State.
So the founders instead distributed and dispersed
political power into several independent branches of government
that have sovereign power over a finite sphere and prohibited the
branches from assuming each others duties. This, they believed,
would prevent collusion against their rights and liberties.
They therefore divided the government into the Executive, Legislative,
and Judicial branches and made them independent of each other, and
assigned very specific duties to each. In effect, these three
branches became “foreign”
to each other and in constant competition with each other for power
and control.
The founders further dispersed political
power by dividing power between the several states and the federal
government and gave most of the power to the states. They
gave each state their own seats in Congress, in the Senate.
They made the states just like “foreign countries” and independent
nations so that there would be the greatest separation of powers
possible between the federal government and the states:
"The States between
each other are sovereign and independent. They
are distinct and separate sovereignties, except so far as they
have parted with some of the attributes of sovereignty by the
Constitution.
They continue to be nations,
with all their rights, and under all their national obligations,
and with all the rights of nations in every particular;
except in the surrender by each to the common purposes and objects
of the Union, under the Constitution. The rights of each
State, when not so yielded up, remain absolute."
[Bank of Augusta v. Earle,
38 U.S. (13 Pet.) 519; 10 L.Ed. 274 (1839)]
Then the founders created multiple states so
that the states would be in competition with each other for citizens
and for commerce. When one state got too oppressive or taxed
people too much, the people could then move to an economically more
attractive state and climate. This kept the states from oppressing
their citizens and it gave the people a means to keep their state
and their government in check. Then they put the federal government
in charge of regulating commerce among and between the states, and
the intention of this was to maximize, not obstruct, commerce
between the states so that we would act as a unified economic union
and like a country. Even so, they didn’t want our country
to be a “nation” under the
law of nations,
because they didn’t want a
national government with unlimited powers. They wanted
a “federation”, so they called our central government the “federal
government” instead of a “national
government”. To give us a “national
government” would be a recipe for tyranny:
“By that law
the several States and Governments spread over our globe, are
considered as forming a society, not a NATION. It
has only been by a very few comprehensive minds, such as those
of Elizabeth and the Fourth Henry, that this last great idea
has been even contemplated. 3rdly. and chiefly, I shall examine
the important question before us, by the Constitution of the
United States, and the legitimate result of that valuable instrument.
“
[Chisholm v. Georgia,
2 Dall. (U.S.) 419, 1 L.Ed. 440 (1794)]
The ingenious founders also made the people
the sovereigns in charge of both the state and federal governments
by giving them a Bill of Rights and mandating frequent elections.
Frequent elections:
- Ensured that rulers would not be in office long enough to
learn enough to get sneaky with the people or abuse their power.
- Kept the rulers accountable to the people and provided a
prompt feedback mechanism to make sure politicians and rulers
were incentivized to listen to the people.
- Created a stable political system that would automatically
converge onto the will of the majority so that the country would
be at peace instead of at war within itself.
The founders even gave the people their own
house in Congress called the House of Representatives, so that the
power between the states, in the Senate, and the People, in the
House, would be well-balanced. They also made sure that these
sovereign electors and citizens were well armed with a good education,
so they could keep their government in check and capably defend
their freedom, property, and liberty by themselves. When things
got rough and governments became corrupt, these rugged and self-sufficient
citizens were also guaranteed the right to defend their property
using arms that the
U.S. Constitution said in the
Second Amendment that they had a right to keep and use.
This ensured that citizens wouldn’t need to depend on the government
for a handout or socialist benefits and wouldn’t have to worry about
having a government that would plunder their property or their liberty.
Finally, the founding fathers created the institution
of trial by jury, so that if government got totally corrupt and
passed unjust laws that violated God’s laws, the people could put
themselves back in control through jury nullification. This
also effectively dealt with the problem of corrupt judges, because
both the jury and the grand jury could override the judge as well
when they detected a conflict of interest by judging both the facts
and the law. Here is how
Thomas Jefferson
described the duty of the jury in such a circumstance:
"It is left...
to the juries, if they think the permanent judges are under
any bias whatever in any cause, to take on themselves to judge
the law as well as the fact. They never exercise this power
but when they suspect partiality in the judges; and by the exercise
of this power they have been the firmest bulwarks of English
liberty."
[Thomas Jefferson to Abbe Arnoux, 1789. ME 7:423, Papers 15:283]
The design that our founding fathers had for
our political system was elegant, unique, unprecedented, ingenious,
perfectly balanced, and inherently just. It was founded on
the concept of
Natural Order and
Natural
Law, which as we explained in section 4.1 are based on the sequence
that things were created. This concept made sense, even to
people who didn’t believe in God, so it had wide support among a
very diverse country of immigrants from all over the world and of
many different religious faiths.
Natural
Law and
Natural Order unified
our country because it was just and fair and righteous. That
is the basis for the phrase on our currency, which says:
“E Pluribus Unum”
…which means: “From many, one.”
Our system of
Natural
Law and
Natural Order also
happened to be based on God’s sovereign design for self-government,
as we explained throughout chapter 4. The founders also recognized
that liberty
without God and morality are impossible:
"We have no government armed with the power capable of contending
with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice
[greed], ambition, revenge, or gallantry [debauchery], would
break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes
through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral
and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government
of any other."
[John Adams, 2nd President]
So the founders included the requirement for
BOTH God and Liberty on all of our currency.
They put the phrase “In
God We Trust” and the phrase “Liberty” side by side,
and they were probably thinking of the following scripture when
they did that!:
“Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the
Lord is, there is liberty.”
[2
Cor. 3:17, Bible, NKJV]
By creating such distinct separation of powers
among all the forces of government, the founders ensured that the
only way anything would get done within government was exclusively
by informed consent and not by force or terror.
The Declaration of Independence identifies the source of ALL "just"
government power as "consent". Anything not consensual is
therefore unjust and tyrannical. An informed and sovereign
People will only do things voluntarily and consensually when it
is in their absolute best interests. This would ensure that
government would never engage in anything that wasn't in the best
interests of everyone as a whole, because people, at least theoretically,
would never consent to anything that would either hurt them or injure
their Constitutional rights. The Supreme Court described this
kind of government by consent as "government by compact":
“In Europe, the executive is synonymous with the sovereign
power of a state…where it is too commonly acquired by force
or fraud, or both…In America, however the case is widely different.
Our government is
founded upon compact [consent expressed in a written contract
called a Constitution or in positive law]. Sovereignty
was, and is, in the people.”
[Glass v. The Sloop Betsy, 3 (U.S.) Dall 6]
Here is the legal definition of “compact” to
prove our point that the Constitution and all federal law written
in furtherance of it are indeed a “compact”:
“Compact, n. An agreement or contract between persons,
nations, or states. Commonly applied to working agreements
between and among states concerning matters of mutual concern.
A contract between parties, which creates obligations and rights
capable of being enforced and contemplated as such between the
parties, in their distinct and independent characters.
A mutual consent of parties concerned respecting some property
or right that is the object of the stipulation, or something
that is to be done or forborne. See also Compact clause;
Confederacy; Interstate compact; Treaty.”
[Black’s Law Dictionary, Sixth Edition, p. 281]
Enacting a mutual agreement into positive law
then, becomes the vehicle for expressing the fact that the People
collectively agreed and consented to the law and to accept any adverse
impact that law might have on their liberty. Public servants
then, are just the apparatus that the sovereign People use for governing
themselves through the operation of positive law. As the definition
above shows, the apparatus and machinery of government is simply
the “rudder” that steers the ship, but the "Captain" of the ship
is the People both
individually and collectively. In a true Republican Form of
Government, the REAL government is the people individually and collectively,
and not their "public servants". That is the true meaning
of the phrase "a government of the people, by the people, and for
the people" used by Abraham LIncoln in the Gettysburg Address.
Our de jure
Constitutional Republic started out as a perfectly balanced and
just system indeed. But somewhere along the way, it was deliberately
corrupted by evil men for personal gain. Just like Cain (in
the Bible) destroyed the tranquility and peace of an idyllic world
and divided the family of Adam by first introducing murder into
the world, greedy politicians who wanted to line their pockets corrupted
our wonderful system and brought evil into the government.
How did it happen? They did it with a combination of force,
fraud, and the corrupting influence of money. This process
can be shown graphically and described in scientific terms over
a period of years to show precisely how it was done.
We will now attempt to do this so that the process is crystal clear
in your mind. What we are trying to show are the following
elements in our diagram:
1. The distinct sovereignties
between governments:
1.1. States
1.2. The federal government
2. The sovereignties
within governments:
2.1. Executive branch
2.2. Legislative branch
2.3. Judicial branch
3. The hierarchy of sovereignty between all the sovereignties
based on their sequence of creation.
4. The corrupting influence of force, fraud, and money, including
the branch that initiated it, the date it was initiated, and the
object it was initiated against.
To meet the above objectives, we
will start off with the diagram found in section 5.1.1 and expand
it with some of the added elements found in the
Natural Order diagram
found earlier in section 4.1. To the bottom of
the diagram, we add the Ten Commandments, which establishes the
“Separation of Church v. State”. The first four commandments
in
Exodus 20:2-11 establish the church and the last six commandments
found in
Exodus 20:12-17 define how we should relate to other people,
who Jesus later called our “neighbor” in
Matt. 22:39. The main and only purpose of government is to love
and protect and serve its inhabitants and citizens, who collectively
are "neighbors". What results is a schematic diagram of the
initial political system that the founders gave us absent all corruption.
This is called the “De
jure U.S. Government”. It is the
only lawful government
we have and its organization is defined by our Constitution.
It's organization is also defined by the Bible, which we also call
"Natural Law" throughout this document.

Each box in
the above diagram represents a sovereignty or sovereign entity that
helps distribute power throughout our system of government to prevent
corruption or tyranny. The arrows with dark ends indicate
an act of creation by the sovereign above. That act of creation
carries with it an implied delegation of authority to do specific
tasks and establishes a fiduciary relationship between the creator,
and his subordinate creation. The above system as shown functions
properly and fully and provides the best defense for our liberties
only when
there is complete
separation between each sovereignty, which is to say that
all actions
performed and all choices
made by any one sovereign:
- Are completely free of fraud, force, conflict of interest,
or duress.
- Are accomplished
completely voluntarily,
which is to say that they are done for the mutual benefit of
all parties
involved rather than any one single party exercising undue influence.
- Involve fully
informed consent made with a
full awareness
by all parties to the agreement of all rights which are being
surrendered to procure any benefits acquired.
- Are done mainly or exclusively for the benefit of the sovereign
above the agent who is the actor.
- Are done for
righteous reasons
and noble intent, meaning that they are accomplished for the
benefit of someone
else rather than one’s own personal or financial
benefit. This requirement is the foundation of what a
fiduciary relationship means and also the
only way
that conflicts of interest and the corruption they can cause
can be eliminated.
With the above in mind, we will now add all
of the corrupting influences accomplished to our system of government
over the years. These are shown with dashed lines representing
the application of unlawful or immoral force or fraud. The
hollow end of each line indicates the sovereign against which the
force or fraud is applied. The number above or next to the
dotted line indicates the item in the table that follows the diagram
which explains each incidence of force or fraud.

Below is a table explaining each incidence of force or fraud
that corrupted the originally perfect system:

After the civil war, the 14th Amendment was
passed in 1868. That amendment along with "words
of art" were used as a means to deceive constitutional
citizens to falsely believe that they were also privileged
statutory "U.S. citizens" pursuant to 8 U.S.C. §1401,
and thus to unconstitutionally extent federal jurisdiction
and enforce federal franchises within states of the
Union. The citizenship status described
in that amendment was only supposed to apply to emancipated
slaves but the federal government in concert with the
states confused the law and the interpretation of the
law enough that everyone thought they were statutory
federal citizens rather than the “non-citizen nationals”
immune from federal jurisdiction, which is foreign with
respect to states of the Union. This put Americans
in the states in a privileged federal status and put
them under the jurisdiction of the federal government.
At the point that Americans voluntarily and unknowingly
accept privileged federal citizenship, they lose their
sovereignty and go to the bottom of the sovereignty
hierarchy. State courts and state legislatures
cooperated in this conspiracy against rights by requiring
electors and jurists to be presumed statutory “U.S.
citizens” in order to serve. At the same time,
they didn’t define the term “U.S. citizen” in their
election laws or voter registration, creating a “presumption”
in favor of people believing that they are statutory
“citizens of the United States”, even though technically
they are not. |

Around
the turn of the century, the guilded age created a lot
of very wealthy people and big corporations. The
corrupting influence of the money they had lead them
to dominate the U.S. senate and the Republican party.,
which was the majority party at the time The people
became restless because they were paying most of the
taxes indirectly via tariffs on imported goods while
the big corporations were paying very little.
This lead to a vote by Congress to send the new Sixteenth
Amendment to the states for ratification. Corporations
heavily influenced this legislation so that it would
favor taxing individuals instead of corporations, which
lead the Republicans in the Senate to word the Amendment
ambiguously so that it could or would be misconstrued
to apply to natural persons instead of the corporations
it was really intended to apply to by the American people.
This created much subsequent litigation and confusion
on the part of the Average American about exactly what
the taxing powers of Congress are, and gave Congressman
a lot of wiggle room to misrepresent the purpose of
the Sixteenth Amendment to their constituents.
Today, Congressmen use the ambiguity of the Amendment
to regularly lie to their Constituents by saying that
the “Sixteenth Amendment” authorizes Congress to tax
the income of every American. This is an absolute
lie and is completely inconsistent with the rulings
of the U.S. Supreme Court. Courts below the Supreme
Court have also used the same ambiguity mechanism to
expand the operation of the income tax beyond its clearly
limited application to the federal zone. During
the same year as the Sixteenth Amendment was ratified,
in 1913, the Congress also passed the Federal Reserve
Act immediately after the Sixteenth Amendment.
By doing this, they surrendered their control over the
money system to a consortium of private banks.
The Sixteenth Amendment was passed first in February
of 1913 because it was the lender-security for the Non-Federal
Reserve that would be needed to create a “credit line”
and collateral. The Federal Reserve Act was passed
in December of that same year. At that point,
the Congress had an unlimited private credit line from
commercial banks and a means to print as much money
as they wanted in order to fund socialist expansion
of the government. But remember that the bible
says:
“The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower
[is] servant to the lender.”

22:7]

In 1911, the U.S. Congress
passed the Judicial Code of 1911 and thereby made all
District and Circuit courts into entirely administrative
courts which had jurisdiction over only the federal
zone. All the federal courts except the U.S. Supreme
Court changed character from being Article III courts
to Article IV territorial courts only. All the
district courts were renamed from “District Court of
the United States” to “United States District Court”.
The Supreme Court said in Balzac v. Puerto Rico,
258 U.S. 198 (1921) that the “United States District
Court” is an Article IV territorial court, not an Article
III constitutional court. Consequently, all the
federal courts excepting the Supreme Court became administrative
courts that were part of the Executive rather than the
Judicial Branch of the government and all the judges
became Executive Branch employees. See our article
“Authorities
on Jurisdiction of Federal Courts” for further details.
The Revenue Act of
1932 than tried to apply income taxes against federal
judges. The purpose was to put them under complete
control of the Executive Branch through terrorism and
extortion by the IRS. This was litigated by the
Supreme Court in 1932 in the case of O’Malley v.
Woodrough, 309 U.S. 277 (1939) just before the war
started. The court ruled that the Executive Branch
couldn’t unilaterally modify the terms of their employment
contracts, so they rewrote the tax law to go around
it subsequent to that by only taxing NEW federal judges
and leaving the existing ones alone so as not to violate
the Constitutional prohibition against reducing judges
salaries. Since that time, federal judges have
been beholden to the greed and malice of the Legislative
branch because they are under IRS control. This
occurred at a time when we had a very popular socialist
President who threatened the Supreme Court if they didn’t
go along with his plan to replace capitalism with socialism,
starting with Social Security. President Roosevelt
tried to retire all the U.S. Supreme Court justices
and then double the size of the court and pack the court
with all of his own socialist cronies in a famous coup
called “The Roosevelt Supreme Court Packing Plan”.

Right after
the Supreme Court case of O’Malley v. Woodrough in 1939,
the U.S. Congress wasted no time in passing a new Revenue
Act that skirted the findings of the Supreme Court’s
that declared income taxes levied against them to be
unconstitutional. In effect, they made the payment
of income taxes by federal judges an implied part of
their employment agreement as “appointed officers” of
the United States government in receipt of federal privileges.
Once the judges were under control of the IRS, they
could be terrorized and plundered if they did not cooperate
with the enforcement of federal income taxes.
This also endowed all federal judges with an implied
conflict of interest in violation of 28 U.S.C. §455

The Revenue
Act of 1939 passed by the U.S. Congress instituted a
very oppressive income tax to fund the upcoming World
War II effort. It was called the “Victory Tax”
and it was a voluntary withholding effort, but after
the war and after people on a large scale got used to
sending their money to Washington, D.C. every month
through payroll withholding, the politicians cleverly
decided not to tell them the truth that it was voluntary.
The politicians then began rewriting the tax laws to
further confuse and deceive people and hide the truth
about the voluntary nature of the income tax.
This included the Internal Revenue Codes of 1954 and
1986, which were major updates of the IRC that further
hid the truth from the legal profession and added so
much complexity to the tax laws that no one even understands
them anymore.

Federal
government uses income tax revenues after World War
II to begin socialist subsidies, starting with Lyndon
Johnson’s “Great Society” plan. Instead of paying
off the war debt and ending the income tax like we did
after the Civil war in 1872, the government adopted
socialism and borrowed itself into a deep hole, following
the illustrious example of Franklin Roosevelt’s “New
Deal” program. This socialist expansion was facilitated
by the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913,
which gave the government unlimited borrowing power.
The income tax, however, had to continue because it
was the “lender security” for the PRIVATE Federal Reserve
banking trust that was creating all this debt and fake
money. The income tax had the effect of making
all Americans into surety for government debts they
never authorized. The Civil Rights movement of
the 1960’s accelerated the growth of the socialist cancer
to cause voters to abuse their power to elect politicians
who would subsidize and expand the welfare-state concept.
“Democracy has never been and never can be so desirable
as aristocracy or monarchy, but while it lasts, is more
bloody than either. Remember, democracy never lasts
long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself.
There never was a democracy that never did commit suicide."
[John Adams, 1815]

Trial jury
|
18 U.S.C. §2111 (robbery)
|
Trial juries
filled with people receiving government socialist handouts
(money STOLEN from hard-working Americans) vote against
tax protesters to illegally enforce the income tax laws,
and especially in the case of the wealthy. Trial
by jury becomes MOB RULE and a means to mug and rob
the producers of society. The jurists are
also under duress by the judge, who does not allow evidence
to be admitted that would be prejudicial to government
(or his retirement check) and who makes cases unpublished
where the government lost on income tax issues.
Because these same jurists were also educated in public
schools, they are easily lead like sheep to do the government’s
dirty work of plundering their fellow citizens by upholding
a tax that is actually voluntary. The result is
slavery of wage earners and the rich to the IRS.
The war of the “have-nots” and the “haves” using the
taxing authority of the government continues on and
expands.

Federal government
|
18 U.S.C. §873 (blackmail)
|
The federal
government begins using income tax revenues and socialist
welfare programs to manipulate the states. For
instance:
1. They made it mandatory for states to require
people getting drivers licenses to provide a Socialist
Security Number or their welfare subsidies would be
cut off.
2. They encourage states to require voters and
jurists to be “U.S. citizens” in order to serve these
functions so that they would also be put under federal
jurisdiction.
3. They mandate that all persons receiving welfare
benefits or unemployment benefits that include federal
subsidies to have Socialist Security Numbers.

18 U.S.C. §876 (mailing threatening communications)
|
IRS abuses
its power to manipulate and silence churches that speak
out about government abuses or are politically active.
This has the effect of making the churches politically
irrelevant forces in our society so that the government
would have no competition for the affections and the
allegiance of the people.

1960-Present |
Federal judicial branch
|
God’s laws (bible)
|
Federal judiciary
eliminates God and prayer in the schools. This
leaves kids in a spiritual vacuum. Drugs, sex,
teenage pregnancy run rampant. Families begin
breaking apart. God is blasphemed. Single
parents raise an increasing number of kids and these
children don’t have the balance they need in the family
to have proper sex roles. Gender identity crisis
and psychology problems result, causing homosexuality
to run rampant. This further accelerates
the breakdown of the family because these dysfunctional
kids have dysfunctional families of their own.
Because God is not in the schools, eventually the people
begin to reject God as well. This expands the
power of government because when the people aren’t governed
by God, they are ruled by tyrants and become peasants
and serfs eventually. That is how the Israelites
ended up in bondage to the Egyptians: because they would
not serve God or trust him for their security.
They wanted a big powerful Egyptian government to take
care of them and be comfortable and safe, which was
idolatry toward government.

2000-Present |
State executive branch
|
18 U.S.C. §208 (acts affecting a personal financial
interest)
|
The state executive branches abuse their power to set
very high licensing requirements for home schools and
private schools, backed by teacher’s unions and contributions
of these unions to their political campaigns.
Licensing requirements become so high that only public
schools have the capital to comply, virtually eliminating
private and home schooling. Teachers and inferior
environment in public schools further contributes to
bad education and liberal socialist values, further
eroding sovereignty of the people and making them easy
prey for sly politicians who want to enslave them with
more unjust laws and expand their fiefdom. Government
continues to grow in power and rights and liberties
simultaneously erode further. |
After our corrupt politicians are
finished socially re-engineering our system of government using
the tax code and a corrupted federal judiciary, below is what happens
to our original republican government system. This is what
we refer to as the “De
facto U.S. Government”. It has replaced our
“De
jure U.S. Government” not through operation of law,
but through fraud, force, and corruption. One of or our readers
calls this new architecture for social organization “The New Civil
Religion of Socialism”, where the collective will of the majority
or whatever the judge says is sovereign, not God, and is the object
of worship and servitude in courtrooms all over the country, who
are run be devil-worshipping modern-day monarchs called “judges”.
These tyrants wear black-robes and chant in Latin and perform exorcism
on hand-cuffed subjects to remove imaginary “demons” from the people
that are defined by majority vote among a population of criminals
(by God’s law), homosexuals, drug abusers, adulterers, and atheists.
The vilification of these demons are also legislated into existence
with ”judge-made law”, which is engineered to maximize litigation
and profits to the legal industry. The legal industry, in
turn, has been made into a part of the government because it is
licensed and regulated by government. This profession “worships”
the judge as an idol and is comprised of golf and law school buddies
and fellow members of the American Bar Association, who hobnob with
the judge and do whatever he says or risk having their attorney
license pulled. In this totalitarian socialist democracy/oligarchy
shown below, the people have
no inalienable or God-given
individual rights,, but only statutory “privileges” and
franchises granted by the will of the majority that are excise taxable.
After all, when God and Truth are demoted to being a selfish creation
of man and a politically correct vain fantasy, then the concept
of “divine right” vanishes entirely from our political system.

In the above diagram, all people in receipt
of federal funds stolen
through illegally collected or involuntarily paid federal income
taxes effectively become federal “employees”. They identified
themselves as such when they filed their W-4 payroll withholding
form, which is a contract that says on the top “Employee
Withholding Allowance Certificate”. The Internal Revenue Code
identifies “employee”
to mean someone who works for the federal government in
26 U.S.C. §3401(c ). These federal “employees” are moral
and spiritual “whores” and “harlots”. They are just like Judas
or Essau…they exchanged the Truth for a lie and liberty for slavery
and they did it mainly for money and personal security. They
are:
1. So concerned about avoiding being terrorized by their government
or the IRS for “making waves”.
2. So immobilized by their own fear and ignorance that they
don’t dare do anything.
3. So addicted to sin and other unhealthy distractions that
they don’t have the time to do justice.
4. So poor that they can’t afford a expensive lawyer to be
able to right the many wrongs imposed on them by a corrupted government.
Justice is a luxury that only the rich can afford in our society.
5. So legally ignorant, thanks to our public “fool”,
I mean “school” system that they aren’t able to right their wrongs
on their own in court without a lawyer.
6. So afraid of corrupt judges and lawyers who are bought
and paid for with money that they stole from hardworking Americans
in illegally enforcing what is actually a voluntary Subtitle A income
against those who in fact and indeed can only be described per the
law as “nontaxpayers”
7. So unable to take care of their own needs because:
7.1 Most of their money has been plundered by a government
unable and unwilling to control its spending.
7.2 They have allowed themselves to depend too much on government
and allowed too much of their own hard-earned money to be stolen
from them.
7.3 They spent everything they had and went deep in debt to
buy things they didn't need.
8. So covetous of that government welfare or socialist security
or unemployment check or paycheck that comes in the mail every month.
…that they wouldn’t dare upset the apple cart
or try to right the many wrongs that maintain the status quo by
doing justice as a voter or jurist. As long as they get their
socialist handout and they live comfortably on the “loot”
their “Parens
Patriae”, or “Big Brother” sends them, they don’t care that
massive injustice is occurring in courtrooms and at the IRS every
day and that they are sanctioning, aiding, and abetting that
injustice as voters and jurists with a financial conflict of interest
in criminal violation of 18 U.S.C. §§201 and 208. In effect,
they are bribed to look the other way while their own government
loots and oppresses their neighbor and then uses that loot to buy
votes and influence.
“Thou shalt not steal.”
[Exodus
20:15, Bible, NKJV]
"For all the
law is fulfilled in one word, even in this: “You
shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
[Gal
5:14, Bible, NKJV]
Would you rob your neighbor? No you say?
Well then, would you look the other way while someone else robs
him in your name? Government is
YOUR AGENT.
If government robs your neighbor, God will hold
you, not the
agent who did it for you, personally responsible, because government
is your agent. God put you in charge of your government and
you are the steward. Frederic Bastiat described the nature
of this horrible corruption of the system in the following book
on our website:
The Law,
by Frederic Bastiat
http://famguardian.org/Publications/TheLaw/TheLaw.htm
If you want to know what the above type of
government is like spiritually, economically, and politically, read
the first-hand accounts in the book of Judges found in the Bible.
Corruption, sin, servitude, violence, and wars characterize this
notable and most ignominious period and “social experiment” as documented
in the Bible. Now do you understand why God’s law mandates
that we serve ONLY Him and
not be slaves
of man or government? When we don’t, the above totalitarian
socialist democracy/tyranny is the result, where politicians and
judges in government become the
only sovereign
and the people are there to bow down to and “worship” and serve
an evil and corrupt government as slaves.
Below is the way God himself describes
the corrupted dilemma we find ourselves in because we have abandoned
the path laid by our founding fathers, as described in
Isaiah 1:1-26:
Alas, sinful
nation,
A people laden with iniquity
A brood of evildoers
Children who are corrupters!
They have forsaken the Lord
They have provoked to anger
The Holy One of Israel,
They have turned away backward.
Why should you be stricken again?
You will revolt
more and more.
The whole head is sick [they are out
of their minds!: insane or STUPID or both],
And the whole heart faints....
Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean;
Put away the evil
of your doings from before My eyes.
Cease to do evil,
Learn to do good;
Seek justice,
Rebuke the oppressor [the IRS and the
Federal Reserve and a corrupted judicial system];
Defend the fatherless,
Plead for the widow [and the "
nontaxpayer"]....
How the faithful
city has become a harlot!
It [the Constitutional Republic] was full of justice;
Righteousness lodged in it,
But now murderers [and abortionists,
and socialists, and democrats, and liars and corrupted judges].
Your silver has become dross,
Your wine mixed with water.
Your princes [President,
Congressmen, Judges] are rebellious,
Everyone loves bribes,
And follows after rewards.
They do not defend the fatherless,
nor does the cause of the widow [or the “nontaxpayer”] come
before them.
Therefore the
Lord says,
The Lord of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel,
"Ah, I will rid Myself of My adversaries,
And take vengeance on My enemies.
I will turn My hand
against you,
And thoroughly purge away your dross,
And take away your alloy.
I will restore your judges [eliminate
the BAD judges] as at the first,
And your counselors [eliminate the
BAD lawyers] as at the beginning.
Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the
faithful city."
[Isaiah
1:1-26, Bible, NKJV]
So according to the Bible, the
real problem
is corrupted lawyers and judges and people who are after money and
rewards, and God says the way to fix the corruption and graft is
to eliminate the
bad judges and lawyers. Whose job is that?
It is the even more corrupted Congress! (see
28 U.S.C. §134(a) and
28 U.S.C. §44(b))
"O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err,
And destroy the way of your paths."
[Isaiah
3:12, Bible, NKJV]
"The king establishes the land by
justice;
but he who receives bribes [or govenrment "benefits", if
paid to voters, jurists, judges, or prosecutors] overthrows it."
[Prov.
29:4, Bible, NKJV]
Can thieves and corrupted judges and lawyers
and jurors, who are all bribed with unlawfully collected monies
they lust after in the pursuit of socialist benefits, reform themselves
if left to their own devices?
"When you [the jury] saw a thief [the corrupted judges and
lawyers paid with extorted and stolen tax money], you consented
with him, And have been a partaker with adulterers."
[Psalm
50:18, Bible, NKJV]
"The people will
be oppressed,
Every one by another and every one by his [socialist] neighbor
[sitting on a jury who
was indoctrinated
and brainwashed in a government school to trust government];
The child will be insolent toward the elder,
And the base toward the honorable."
[Isaiah
3:5, Bible, NKJV]
"It must be conceded that there are rights [and property]
in every free government beyond the control of the State [or
any judge or jury]. A government which recognized no such
rights, which held the lives, liberty and property of its citizens,
subject at all times to the disposition and unlimited control
of even the most democratic depository of power, is after all
a despotism. It is true that it is a despotism of the
many--of the majority, if you choose to call it so--but it is
not the less a despotism."
[Loan Ass'n v. Topeka,
87 U.S. (20 Wall.) 655, 665 (1874)]
The answer is an emphatic no. It is up
to We The People
as the sovereigns in charge of our lawless government to right this
massive injustice because a corrupted legislature and judiciary
and the passive socialist voters in charge of the government today
simply cannot remedy their own addiction to the money that was stolen
from their neighbor by the
criminals they
elected into office. These elected representatives were supposed
to be elected to serve
and protect the people, but they have become the worst
abusers of the people because they only got into politics and government
for selfish reasons. Notice we didn't say they got into "public
service", because we would be lying to call it that. It would
be more accurate to call what they do "self service" instead of
"public service". One of our readers has a name for these
kinds of people. He calls them SLAT: Scum, Liars, and
Thieves. If you add up all the drug money, all the stolen
property, all the white collar crime together, it would all pale
in comparison to the “extortion under the color of law” that our
own de facto government is instituting against its own people.
If we solve no crime problem other than that one problem, then the
government will have done the most important thing it can do to
solve our crime problem and probably significantly reduce the prison
population at the same time. There are lots of people in jail
who were put there wrongfully for income tax crimes that aren’t
technically even crimes. These people were maliciously prosecuted
by a corrupted satan worshipping DOJ with the complicity of
a corrupted judiciary and they MUST be freed because they have become
slaves and political prisoners of a corrupted state for the sake
of statutes that operate as the equialent of a "civil religion"
and which are not and cannot be law in their case. That's
right: the corrupted state has erected a counterfeit church and
religion that is a cheap imitation of God's design complete with
churches, prayers, priests, deacons, tithes, and even its own "Bible"
(franchise) and they have done so in violation of the First Amendment.
The nature of that civil religion is exhaustively described below:

We will now close this section with a tabular
summary that compares our original “de jure” government to the “de
facto” government that we presently suffer under. This corrupted
“de facto” government only continues to exist because of our our
passive and tolerant approach towards the illegal activities of
the government servants. We can fix this if we really want
to, folks. Let’s do it!
Table 6-2: Comparison of our "De jure" v.
"De facto" government

# |
Type of Separation of Powers |
De jure government |
De facto government |
|
1 |
Separation of Church and State |
Government has no power to control or regulate the political
activities of churches |
IRS 501(c ) designation allows government to remove
tax exemption from churches if they get politically
involved |
|
2 |
Separation of Money and State |
Only lawful money is gold and the value of the dollar
is tied to gold. Government can’t manufacture
more gold so they can’t abuse their power to coin money
to enrich themselves. |
Fiat currency is Federal Reserve Notes (FRNs).
Government can print any amount of these it wants and
thereby enrich itself and steal from the those who hold
dollars by lowering the value of the dollars in circulation
(inflation) |
|
3 |
Separation of Marriage and State |
People getting married did not have marriage licenses
from the state. Instead, the ceremony was exclusively
ecclesiastical and it was recorded only in the family
Bible and church records. |
Pastor acts as an agent of both God and the state.
He performs the ceremony and is also licensed by the
state to sign the state marriage license. Churches
force members getting married to obtain state marriage
license by saying they won’t marry them without a state-issued
marriage license. |
|
4 |
Separation of School and State |
Schools were rural and remote and most were private
or religious. There were very few public schools
and a large percentage of the population was home-schooled.
|
Most student go to public schools. They are dumbed-down
by the state to be good serfs/sheep by being told they
are “taxpayers” and being shown in high school how to
fill out a tax return without even being shown how to
balance a check book. They are taught that government
is the sovereign and not the people, and that people
should obey the government. |
|
5 |
Separation of State and Federal government |
States control the Senate and all legislation and taxation
internal to a state. Federal government controls
only foreign commerce in the form of imposts, excises,
and duties under Article 1, Section 8, Clause 3 of the
Constitution. |
Federal government receives lions share of income taxes
over both internal and external trade. It redistributes
the proceeds from these taxes to the socialist states,
who are coerced to modify their laws in compliance with
federal dictates in order to get their fair share of
this stolen “loot”. |
|
6 |
Separation between branches of government: Executive,
Legislative, Judicial |
Three branches of government are entirely independent
and not controlled by other branches. |
Judges are “employees” of the executive branch and have
a conflict of interest because they are beholden to
IRS extortion. Executive controls the illegal
tax collection activities of the IRS and dictates to
other branches it’s tax policy through illegal IRS extortion.
Using the IRS, Executive becomes the “Gestapo” that
controls everything and everyone. Congress and
the courts refuse to reform this extortion because they
benefit most financially by it. |
|
7 |
Separation of Commerce and State |
Federal government regulates only foreign commerce of
corporations. States regulate all internal commerce.
Private individuals have complete privacy and are not
regulated because they don’t have Socialist Security
Numbers and are not monitored by the IRS Gestapo.
Banks are independent and do not have to participate
in a national banking system so they don’t coerce their
depositors to bet government-issued numbers nor do they
snoop/spy on their depositors as an agent of the IRS
Gestapo. Private employers are not regulated or
monitored by federal Gestapo and their contracts with
their employees are private and sacred. |
All credit issued by a central, private Federal Reserve
consortium. Federal Reserve rules coerce private
banks to illegally enforce federal laws in states of
the Union that only apply in the federal zone.
Namely, they force depositors to have Socialist Security
Numbers and they report all currency transactions over
$3,000 to the Dept of the Treasury (CTR’s). “Spying”
on financial affairs citizens by government makes citizens
afraid of IRS and government and coerces them to illegally
pay income taxes by government. Employers are
coerced to enslave their employees to IRS through wage
reporting and withholding, often against the will of
employees. |
|
8 |
Separation of Media and State |
Press was free to report as they saw fit under the First
Amendment. Most newspapers were small-town newspapers
and were private and independent. |
Television, radio, the internet, and corporations have
taken over the media and concentrated control of it
to the hands of a very few huge and “privileged” corporations
that are in bed with the federal and state governments.
Media is no longer independent, and broadcasters don’t
dare cross the government for fear of either losing
their FCC license, being subjected to an IRS audit,
or having their government sponsorship revoked. |
|
9 |
Separation of Family and State |
Families were completely separate from the state.
Private individuals were not subject to direct taxation
or regulation by either state or federal government.
No Socialist Security Numbers and no government surveillance
of private commerce by individuals. Women stayed
home and out of the workforce. Men dominated the
political and commercial landscape and also defended
their family from encroachments by government.
Children were home-schooled and worked on the farm.
They inherited the republican values of their parents.
Morality was taught by the churches and there was an
emphasis on personal responsibility, modesty, manners,
respect, and humility. |
Using income taxes, mom was removed from the home to
enter the workforce so she could replace the income
stolen from dad by the IRS through illegal enforcement
of the tax laws. Conflict over money breaks families
down and divorce rate reaches epidemic proportions.
Children are neglected by their parents because parents
both have to work full-time and duke it out with each
other in divorce court. Majority of children raised
in single parent homes. Television and a liberal
media dominates and distorts the thoughts and minds
of the children. Public schools filled with homosexuals
and liberals, many of whom have no children of their
own, teach our children to be selfish, rebellious, sexually
promiscuous, homosexual drug-abusers. Pornography
invades the home through the internet, cable-TV, and
video rentals, creating a negative fixation on sex.
Television interferes with family communication so that
children are alienated from their parents so that they
do not inherit good morals or respect for authority
from their parents.. Crime rate and prison population
reaches unprecedented levels. Citizens therefore
lose their ability to govern themselves and the legal
field and government come in and take over their lives.
|
|
10 |
Separation of Charity and State |
Churches and families were responsible for charity.
When a person was old or became unemployed, members
of the church or family would take them. Personal
responsibility and morality within churches and families
would encourage them to improve their lives. |
Monolithic, huge, and terribly inefficient government
bureaucracies replace families and churches as major
source of charity. These bureaucracies have no
idea what personal responsibility is and are not allowed
to talk about morality because they are not allowed
to talk about God. Generations of people grow
up under this welfare umbrella without every having
to take responsibility for themselves, and these people
abuse their voting power to perpetuate it. Supremacy
of families and churches is eliminated and government
becomes the new “god” for everyone to worship.
See Jeremiah 2:26-28. |
