Americans have been negligent in the most important of all things concerning the gov't - Americans don't read the actual law, but simply rely on the gov't's lapdog, the controlled media.
Every law must come from the jurisdiction granted to the federal gov't by the Constitution - an ever increasing number of Americans now believe that the gov't is ignoring the Constitution, but it's not possible for the gov't to simply write a law without it being tied back to a federal jurisdiction. How would the courts have jurisdiction over a controversy if there was no Constitutional jurisdiction upon which the law was made? For instance, all federal issues must be based upon a jurisdiction from title 28, "Judiciary and Judicial Procedure", chapter 85, "Federal courts; jurisdiction".
We Americans walk around saying that we're "taxpayers" and therefore we have a vote on what happens in
Washington,
D.C. What is the definition of "taxpayer"? Have you ever seen it? The Constitution only grants the federal gov't jurisdiction over foreign commerce, interstate commerce, and trade with the Indians. It cannot grant the federal gov't any jurisdiction over intrastate commerce (human action) because the organic law of the land, the Declaration of Independence, states that "all men are created equal". No American has the right to initiate force over another American. Yet today the federal gov't has taken the stance that it can lawfully coerce any American to do what that American is told to do by the gov't. And Americans continue to believe that they must do what the federal gov't regulates them to do.
It's time to read the actual laws, statutes, and regulations. Is that an easy task? Of course not. But just how much effort do you think it takes to defend your individual freedom?
The gov't still has only the jurisdictions as granted to it by the Constitution. It cannot ever have any jurisdiction over intrastate commerce (human action) because "all men are created equal". Any word that the gov't uses in a law must be within the gov't's limited jurisdiction - these words are legally known as "terms".
Here's the definition of the term "taxpayer" as found in the Code of Federal Regulations at 26 CFR 2.1-1(a)(5) - "Taxpayer means a citizen who has established or seeks to establish a construction reserve fund under the provisions of section 511 of the Act and the regulations in this part, and may include a partnership." The "Act" referenced within the above regulation is defined just above the definition of "taxpayer" at 26 CFR 2.1-1(a)(1) as the Merchant Marine Act of 1936.
If you think that the above must be some other definition of "taxpayer" that only applies to the Merchant Marine, then here's another regulation right below the above cites at 26 CFR 2.1-1(b) - "Insofar as the computation and collection of taxes are concerned, other terms used in the regulations in this part, except as otherwise provided, have the same meaning as in the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.". So now you've seen what a "taxpayer" is - a member of the Merchant Marine. A "taxpayer" is, therefore, a federal employee. Only federal employees are liable for federal employment taxes once you stop and think about it. But Americans don't read the law, they listen to the controlled media.
Our considerable ignorance has been groomed by the media. But it has been this way since the American Revolution. Ever since the ink dried on the Declaration of Independence, Great Britain has been determined to undermine American sovereignty. Do you believe that the monarchy in
England ever had any intent to grant its colonies freedom? Of course not. Although
Great Britain lost the Revolution on the battlefield, it immediately sent in its bankers (the world's banking headquarters is in
London) to destroy American sovereignty through use of legal "terms" under the jurisdiction of the foreign commerce clause. In the War of 1812,
Great Britain was impressing
America's Merchant Marine into service in its Navy. Today
Great Britain is still impressing
America's Merchant Marine into service for its bankers.
The bankers eventually bankrupted
America's federal gov't in 1933. The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) was written in 1935 in order to evidence the underlying federal jurisdiction of the laws within the United States Code (USC). Title 11 USC, "Bankruptcy", is implemented by title 11 CFR, "Federal elections". This evidences that our federal elections are simply to elect a federal bankruptcy "administration".
But simply bankrupting the federal gov't was not enough to enslave all Americans to make them pay the interest on the bankers' counterfeit money loans to the federal gov't. Remember, the federal gov't has no jurisdiction over intrastate commerce. So they created Social Security. The "Form SS-5" that one uses to apply for a S.S.# is actually a federal employment form. Guess what the applicant of a S.S.# has become - a "taxpayer". We Americans have been duped into signing away our sovereignty by becoming federal employees involved in foreign commerce and now subject to the plethora of poverty causing federal regulatory agencies.
Americans now believe that a bunch of thugs stealing their hard earned money can "fix" things. Just what has any federal regulation ever "fixed"? The federal regulatory agencies continue to grow - look at all of Obama's czars. There can be no federal czar that has any jurisdiction over a sovereign American since said czar is simply another person and "all men are created equal".
As you will discover by reading the links below, the federal gov't knows full well what its limited jurisdictions are, but all we listen to is the controlled media feeding us the same old stories about how this or that new regulation or agency is being implemented to "fix" some issue of the day. The "War on Poverty" worked perfectly, didn't it? Why, there's no poverty around here. The "War on Drugs" has been an overwhelming success, hasn't it? No drug problems in
America today are there? How about "No Child Left Behind"? Our education system is a total joke.
Here are links to the actual laws, statutes, regulations, and Supreme Court decisions that all Americans need to read and understand:

Mississippi
River" (
Great Britain shares that ownership with us).
http://wp.me/pCW6e-7h "The Bankers' Blueprint to Destroy American
Sovereignty".
http://wp.me/pCW6e-3Z "Internal Revenue Jurisdiction" (it's foreign commerce).
http://wp.me/pCW6e-3a "The Supreme Court Decisions" (concerning the income
tax and the 16th Amendment - these decisions state that
no new jurisdiction was granted to the federal gov't - this
is because it is within foreign commerce).
http://wp.me/pCW6e-4M "The Medicine and Drug Laws" (these are all within
internal revenue - foreign commerce).
http://wp.me/pCW6e-5i "What is FICA?" (it's a
U.S. possession tax - remember
that the gov't has no jurisdiction over intrastate commerce
so it can only implement a possession tax - the
U.S.
possessions are considered foreign countries under the
law).
http://wp.me/PCW6e-E "The Social Security Scam" - this is the entire overview
that ties back to all of the above links except the
"Bankers' Blueprint", but the "Bankers' Blueprint" does
link to "The Social Security Scam".
After reading the laws at the above links you will see that at no time has the federal gov't ever had any jurisdiction over the sovereign American. We Americans have been lied to since the beginning by the controlled media, which in turn, is owned by the same people that own the banks.
