I came across this paper, which is the best single source I have ever seen that clearly explains how the USA government was set up, and how it is SUPPOSED TO function.
Most people today seem to think that the federal government is at the top, the States are below, and the People are at the bottom.
The truth is the opposite: The People are at the top, the States are below, and the federal government is at the bottom -- and it has only specific, LIMITED powers.
BUT ...
They have been trying to turn it all upside down via propaganda and deception.
They have done this by utilizing two specific clauses in the Constitution, which grants to the federal government EXCLUSIVE AUTHORITY to pass ANY law they want -- but this power ONLY applies within the District of Columbia and the federal territories (Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and Northern Mariana Islands).
Regarding the 50 States of the Union, the federal government only has ENUMERATED POWERS ... written in the Constitution ... and NOTHING MORE.
But the 14th Amendment did, in fact, create a "new" class of citizenship, and everyone has been TRICKED into claiming they are that type of citizen.
That type of citizen (United States citizen) ... HAS NO RIGHTS.
That type of citizen has ONLY "privileges and immunities," but NO FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS FROM GOD.
If YOU claim to BE that type of citizen, then the government PRESUMES you are, and you have no fundamental rights. Thus, they treat you that way.
If you have ever heard or read about "State citizens," or "14th Amendment citizens" or similar, you have heard correctly, but I have never seen anyone put it all together in a clear, logical format, complete with US Supreme Court case law and other legal authorities to back it up -- until now.
This paper does it.
An important quote from the paper in the conclusion:
In any given Act of Congress, it is important to determine whether the Act is founded on some part of the U.S. Constitution whereby the States of the Union have delegated authority to the United States government and thereby bound themselves and the people who live therein to the Acts of Congress on that issue. Without the proper delegation of authority, the Acts of Congress apply only to the territory belonging to the United States and such Acts have no legal operational effect within the States of the Union. Moreover, without this delegation of authority, the agents of the United States government are without authority to enforce the Acts of Congress, Presidential Executive Orders, or regulations created by any secretary of the president’s cabinet.
It is 40 pages. If you can't take the time, over the next couple of days, to read through 40 pages, then guess what? YOU do not DESERVE to live in a free society.
So ... READ IT.
EVERYONE needs to read it. THIS is how we take back America.
We simply unravel the lies and deceipt, and assert our rightful ownership that has been taken by fraud.
