BACK TO REPORT


licenses
Quoting from "Memorandum of American Cases and Recent English Cases on The Law of Trading With the Enemy":

"Every species of intercourse with the enemy is illegal. This prohibition is not limited to mere commercial intercourse."

The enemy may be delt with only by the permission granted by a license. We, prior to 1933, did not apply for a marriage license. We wrote the fact in the family Bible. Every endeavor we wish to pursue requires permission from the government, from getting a job, to owning a business, to having a child. Return to `license'
by any person, or with respect to any property, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States; The original 1917 Act read:

(b) That the President may investigate, regulate, or prohibit, under such rules and regulations as he may prescribe, by means of licenses or otherwise, any transactions in foreign exchange, export or earmarkings of gold or silver coin or bullion or currency, transfers of credit in any form (other than credits relating solely to transactions to be executed wholly within the United States);

The amendment to this qualification placed 'we the people' in the same standing as the 'enemy'. Return to `by any person'
the term ''person'' means an individual, partnership, association, or corporation.

By this statement, we are unknowlingly treated by law as a corporate person. It is this concept which draws us from our SUI JURIS status into being bound by the unlimited contracts imposed on us by the corporate merchantile law of the land. Some have attempted the laborious process of recending their signatures from every document. Some contracts are not signed such as your birth certificate and in the case of our public school children, their Social Security obligation. I have heard some itemize up to three hundred documents which obligate you by contract to the Federal Government (Federal Reserve Corporation by virtue of the bankruptcy).
