Fleecing Sheep and Boiling Frogs

in debt •  8 years ago 

From my limited knowledge about parliamentary procedure and law, you can't introduce much less vote on new legislation if it conflicts with an already existing law. The proper procedure is to first alter or abolish an existing law before proposing a new law that in any way conflicts with the old one. This presents a problem for me about many current practices in the supposed United States of America. The question is "How can there be two conflicting laws or a law and a conflicting custom which violates the law?"

Welcoming all to comment and enlighten me on the correctness of law and my opinion, I quote The
Constitution for the united States of America in Article I, section 10. "No State shall... make any Thing but gold and silver coin a Tender in Payment of Debts...". I am unaware that Article 1, sec. 10 had been changed by the specified method described in my Constitution ( it is a contract ). I don't recall being required to pay or receive payment to or from the State in gold and silver. How can it be that all States accept "Federal Reserve" issued notes for debts and payments when Federal Reserve Notes ( aka cash, bills, paper and electronic currency) are issued by a private corporation which are in fact debt obligations for payment. To me, a private corporation ( what, you thought the Federal Reserve is a branch of government?? ) issuing paper debts to be used as money is no different than the old coal mining companies that used to issue their own "scrip" to use in the company store to trade provisions for labor. The company owed you for your labor but instead of paying you in gold and silver gave you "notes of credit" to be used in its closed loop system.

This brings me to the question of are we being fleeced and under a false assumption that our governments are acting lawfully or even if we actually have legitimate, authorized by The People government. Are we under a State of Emergency ( I think we have been since the 1930s) which gives extraordinary powers to government it normally is prohibited from taking?

"Oh, what a tangled web we weave... when first we practice to deceive." I maintain that gradually, over 200 years, the British Crown and the International Bankers have crept back onto the land and taken possession of nearly everything. When we use a tangible asset such as gold and silver there is always a limited supply. If paper debt obligations can be created out of thin air without being tied one to one with tangible assets the amount of debt that can be issued is infinite. If those debt obligations are accepted universally for payment in full, only the exhaustion of natural resource supply is possible with unpayable debts. If you follow economic cycles, this has been a recurring method with great damage to the earth and to society. What an ingenious system of fleecing and boiling. It seems to work every time. It is not possible to discharge a debt by using debt for payment except in fantasy land.
