This action made private individuals who had been previously exempt from federal income taxes now liable for them since the general public began consuming and making large amounts of private credit. Notice all the case law prior to 1933 which affirms that income is a profit or a gain which arises from a government granted privilege. After 1933, however, the case law no longer emphatically declares that income is exclusively corporate profit or that it arises from a privilege.

A major purpose behind the 16th Amendment was to give Congress authority to enforce private law collections of revenue. Congress had the plenary power to collect income taxes arising from government granted privileges long before the 16th Amendment was ratified and the amendment was unnecessary, except to give Congress the added power to enforce collections under private law: i.e. income from whatever source.

Congress has the power to abolish the Federal Reserve System and thus destroy the private credit system. However, the people have it within their power to strip the fed of its powers, rescind private credit and get the bankers to pay off the National Debt would Congress fail to act.

The key to all this is 12 USC 411, which declares that Federal Reserve notes shall be redeemed in lawful money at any Federal Reserve Bank.

If the Fed is under no obligation to redeem its notes, then no one has an obligation to make a return of income.

It is that simple!

According to Bonvier, public money is the money which Congress can tax for public purposes mandated by the Constitution. Private credit when collected as revenue can fund programs and be spent for purposes not cognizable by the Constitution.

Never forget that private credit is funding the destruction of our country.

David Merrill,

The text and movie are very simple to understand as presented as far as I am concerned. It is easy to see.

I can summarize and comment on that information (information is currency).

Private

Private commerce is separate from Public commerce by involuntary law. I have to add the involuntary word because I have this thing about being accurate when passing on currency from one person to another person. When I am involved the focus will be toward greater accuracy. You can focus on whatever you choose.

Private commerce is separate from Public commerce because people will starve to death without private commerce and because Public commerce requires an unrecoverable cost associated with enforcement of involuntary commerce.

In other words: If all commerce were Public commerce the people would work to death in order to enforce their own slavery.

The flip side of that relationship (involuntary association) is a situation where all commerce becomes Private. If all commerce were Private the people may, and this is not proven, the people may not invest in their own security against criminals (single criminals and organized criminals).

This summary may appear to be inaccurate to the reader who may have watched the link and read the text offered by David Merrill. If the reader is at all confused by the link and the text offered by David Merrill it may be a good idea to discuss that confusion. My intention is to summarize the principles before moving onto the interesting stuff.

The interesting stuff is the stuff that secures the people from crime and allows people to work toward prosperity for their own current lives and for posterity.

The principle difference between Public activity (commerce) and Private activity (by involuntary law) is the principle of free will. A Private activity is free from involuntary association, by law, and a Public activity is shackled with involuntary enforcement.

It is very easy to know when activity moves from Private to Public activity. Someone will offer two choices when activity moves from Private to Public activity. The two choices are these:

Choice A:
Obey

Choice B:
Suffer Punishment

If anyone, including David Merrill, harbors a false perspective concerning this accurate fact please consider exposing that falsehood now.

Again:

PRIVATE equals voluntary association.

PUBLIC equals involuntary association.

The biggest problem I have with the link and the text offered by David Merrill is the lack of focus on the principle difference between Public and Private human activity.

The link and the text expose criminal activity concerning money and currency. Criminal activity is neither PUBLIC nor PRIVATE unless someone, anyone really, considers all involuntary associations to be criminal.

The apparent assumption in the movie link and the text is such that PUBLIC (involuntary ) associations are LAWFUL and RIGHT and MORAL and NON-CRIMINAL.

In other words; the text and the movie apparently project legitimacy for specific involuntary associations such as, for example, The Constitution of the United States.

This does not have to, by default, cause conflict between individual people. This can be seen as simple fact. The Constitution of the United States is a written document prescribing an involuntary union of states. It is all there in black and white. Ignoring the facts won’t make the facts go away.

Anyway…lets assume that it is OK to enforce an involuntary association for the specific purpose of securing the union or preserving liberty by collecting the power required to defend against criminal individuals and criminals gangs. This isn’t too hard to swallow even for someone like me who does not agree that involuntary associations are necessary. I can suppose, for the moment, that people must pay, or else suffer punishment, when criminals are roaming the neighborhood injuring innocent people as robbery, rape, torture, and murder. In other words; when robbers, rapists, torturers, and mass murderers are injuring innocent people currently, happening right now, it is a good idea to exert some pressure upon your fellow man (and woman) to invest in reducing those specific crimes and to ensure that the investments earn an effective remedy.

OK, so, suppose a power is put in place to collect these taxes for our mutual defense as we all agree to secure our liberty. Suppose, in fact, that we enact a power that enforces the collection of a tax upon all who reside within our reach. This is not often the way a person describes ‘our government’. It is an accurate way to describe it. This should alert the reader since falsehood is difficult to find once falsehood has infected the mind.

Suppose, then, that ‘we the people’ agree to enforce our-selves to pay a PUBLIC tax. We, in short, require (obey or be punished) tax payments to ‘the government’ – or else.

Please know, for a fact, that this is what has been done and this is what causes the division between PUBLIC and PRIVATE. The reason why the division exists is something that can be called “Special Interest”. In other words; certain people are allowed to become PUBLIC people while everyone not allowed to become PUBLIC people are left as PRIVATE people. A PUBLIC person has ‘special’ powers. A PUBLIC person can use the POWER given to the PUBLIC person in many specific ways and these specific POWERS are enumerated specifically and presumably these SPECIAL POWERS are accurately prescribed (much like a doctor prescribes a specific cure for a specific disease rather than, say, prescribing blood letting for a headache) and these POWERS are not, at all, ambiguous. To allow these POWERS to become ambiguous or unspecific is to court disaster and open the door for ‘The Government’ to become CRIME.

Quote time:

Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries BY A GOVERNMENT, which we might expect in a country WITHOUT GOVERNMENT, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer. Government, like dress, is the badge of lost innocence; the palaces of kings are built upon the ruins of the bowers of paradise. For were the impulses of conscience clear, uniform and irresistibly obeyed, man would need no other lawgiver; but that not being the case, he finds it necessary to surrender up a part of his property to furnish means for the protection of the rest; and this he is induced to do by the same prudence which in every other case advises him, out of two evils to choose the least. Wherefore, security being the true design and end of government, it unanswerably follows that whatever form thereof appears most likely to ensure it to us, with the least expense and greatest benefit, is preferable to all others.
++++++++++

So…the POWER to tax is very specific because the POWER to tax can easily turn into organized crime. It would not take much confusion or ambiguity to hide criminal robbery behind this POWER to tax. It would not take much confusing language and it would not take a whole lot of confusing TEXT to disguise a criminal gang taking over the POWER to tax and make that POWER a criminal power instead of a PUBLIC TRUST.

People are busy working. People do not have the time and energy required to make sense of too much confusing jargon. The POWER to tax must be specific and it must be simple and it must be easy to understand and it must be universal, fair, and equitable or this POWER will be criminal, unequal, unfair, inequitable, and destructive to a point whereby the people (Private) are working themselves to death for their own enslavement.

Now, suppose that the private people (the people) agree to support this involuntary tax collection business and this thing is then called PUBLIC activity. Now, and this is very easy to understand, the PUBLIC activity has the power to accumulate more POWER.

I can help make this very easy to understand by making this personal. Suppose you were given the license to print money (purchasing power) and you were given the license to collect taxes (in the form of purchasing power).

Yesterday you had to work for a living. Today you have the license to print legal money (Public money/currency) and you have the license to collect taxes. Which is easier for you to gain more power quickly?

Yesterday you had to work for a living and you had to please everyone you meet and you had to provide all your associates with their desires. This is PRIVATE stuff. You go out and ask people if they need something and if these PRIVATE people say:
“Yes, I need lunch.”
“I need a new house.”
“I want a new car.”
“My car is broke.”
“My house needs a new roof.” if they say that and you supply what they demand, the way they demand it, then you are gainfully employed in an honest job. Good for you. You earn a living. That, my fellow Amercians, is the Amercian dream. It is called: WORK.

Yesterday you were PRIVATE and you had to provide a demand. You worked.

Today, a new day, you get your license to print POWER and you get your license to TAX. You get to create PUBLIC LEGAL TENDER today.

You get to collect TAXES or send people to court and jail for failing to pay TAXES.

Which is better?

Three choices:

A. Work for a living (PRIVATE)
B. Manufacture legal tender (MONEY)
C. Collect Taxes

Which is easier?

Which cost more?

Which choice requires more work from you?

I can help walk the confused, if someone reading this is still confused, through these three choices.

A. Working for a living requires a lot of work because people demanding things would rather do these things themselves unless you can do these things cheaper. Working for a living requires a lot of very effective work, the best at this job, and if you are not up to snuff you will starve at that employment. Find a job where you can compete and earn your share of the market.

B. All you have to do is add zeros to your bank account. That is it. Now you are very, very, powerful. Add a lot more zeros and you are that much more powerful. The work required to defend your power is done by grunts. These grunts get sent to places like Iraq to die in defense of your personal (PUBLIC) power. You have the license. You got it. You own it. You control it. Add as many zeros as you see fit. You have this power. You may have to work at deceiving the PUBLIC. That is the catch.

C. People really don’t like being told what to do and this TAX collection job isn’t going to be easy. The catch here is the same catch as catch B. You have to be able to deceive people into a belief in the legitimacy of robbery. It can’t be easy.

I’ve commented at length concerning the linked video and the text. My prescription is specific.

Two products:

One is an interest free loan for home mortgages for qualified borrowers.

The other is a one percent interest loan for new energy production and consumption.

I can’t, for the life of me, figure out why people are averse to my prescription. My guess is that the people have been publicized. I can explain as demanded.
