Congress enacted the Act of 1871, which President Ulysses S. Grant signed into law. Using the War Powers defect in the U. S. Constitution, a new service corporation was created with which to govern Washington DC and provide certain services to the people and the states. This new corporate entity, functioning under martial law, then enticed the states to accept more complete control by the federal government. Next, they took steps to deceive the sovereign people of the states into allowing themselves to be treated as citizens under the Fourteenth Amendment. Since then, elected officials have been serving their international employers rather than the people who elected them, and the people were slowly led away from relying on Divine Providence and instead depending upon government to take care of them.

The fact of the matter is that we did not knowingly expatriate ourselves from our original status. Rather, the government has been using deceptive tactics to draw the people under its control.

The tactics are centered on the use of Marriage Licenses, Birth Certificates, Drivers Licenses, Business Licenses, Bank Accounts, and Social Security, partly as a result of the 14th Amendment. All contain adhesion contracts. Having acquired any or all of these adhesions we unknowingly give the government authority over us. For example, marriage licenses make the government a third party to marriages and give it a claim to ownership of the children. These “invisible contracts” also make us liable for the Income Tax that otherwise would not pertain to most of the men and women living in the states. All of these things have served to systematically deprive the people of our natural rights and subject us to power-mongering de facto governmental authorities.

To our surprise and dismay, we find that the type of government that we thought we had was hijacked from us. Now that we are aware of the truth, it is our right and our duty to reassemble and bring forth for ourselves and for our land the lawful status we thought we had. To do this we do not have to resort to revolution, riot, or military coup. Instead, we can accomplish this objective by relying on the truth and the pen to educate the people of America.
