With the birth certificate we are born into a commerce clause and are literal income for the government. Liberty is not consenting to those legal jargon words that enslave.

PERSON is a legal entity – a trust, corporation, partnership, association. Don’t be fooled by the attorney’s statutory word trickery if you see “natural person”. An adverb cannot change the root meaning of a word. Plain and simple, it is impossible to be a “person”. You are either a man or woman – a living being. A “person” is a dead entity and attorneys may only represent persons – commercial legal entities.

RESIDENT is the word term used to establish jurisdiction in a State (a legal entity). To “reside” is a commercial term only used to establish domicile for tax revenue purposes.

CITIZEN is the word term used to establish jurisdiction in a Federal district. It is also a commercial term only used to establish domicile for tax revenue purposes. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) may only tax those people who have voluntarily deemed themselves internal to the district. Thus only legal entities have tax liability.

DRIVER is a For Hire / paid operator of a motor vehicle. The term “motor vehicle” is defined as every description of carriage or other contrivance propelled or drawn by mechanical power used for commercial purposes on the highways in the transportation of passengers, passengers and property, or property or cargo.

PASSENGER is someone who pays a fare for passage on a commercial carrier – airplane, bus, taxi, limousine, cruise ship, train or trolley, rather than a “guest” who travels without charge or fee.

The NAME = all Capital letter designation – JOHN DOE or JANE DOE is the corporate legal entity = person (also known as – strawman).

Awesomely put!

Dearest govt., Keep the $200,000 Soc. Sec. I have put in running on the gerbil wheel…keep the medicare I have paid for the last 31 years but when I log out you’d better let me alone with my liberty. And in turn I won’t ask you for anything. I will die working the soil like my Texas forefathers did.

I’m only four years from where you are Jack. I started 6 months ago…have the power and septic in and the pole barn half built.

I have a small disagreement with on regarding you use of Justice Holmes’s dictum “Your freedom to swing you fists ends at my nose.”
You applied it someone contaminating your corn crop with pollen from GM corn. First, I think you’re a bit nutty on GM but that’s fine. Where I have a problem is when you object to someone growing a GM crop anywhere near you.
You (or I) might believe popcorn is poison and that raising it near our yellow corn somehow contaminates it. A court would demand proof.
I met a guy once who thought radio waves were deadly and wanted to ban all antennae! Again, prove it and maybe he’ll have a case.
I just don’t like when a supposed victim defines the crime. In the case of genetically modified food (and all modern food is modified, whether through accident, breeding or gene swapping) just about every scientist and researcher in that field believe it safe.
The more we investigate, the more we realize that gene swapping, from one organism to another, happens all the time in nature. There are microorganisms that have picked up genes from humans!
Justice Holmes came up with a good rough guide to liberty but we can’t go around sticking our noses into fists.
Great podcast this time, I enjoy all of them and this time I got to argue with you and that’s the best thing of all.

One of your best yet Jack!!! I will be passing this one along to several people who need to hear it. “Freedom isn’t alway pretty” So very, very true.

Good show today Jack.

Also- forgot to thank you for adding the RWVA logo and link to the site. I’m up to Instructor in Training II now. So fun working with the kids and getting to tell stories about our heritage and the sacrifice our forefathers made so we could have the possibility of living free. Nothing was certain that April morning. They were traitors to the crown. The only two outcomes were hanging in the public square or victory and the creation of a new nation.

BTW- we are starting a campaign of doing lectures in public libraries so we can reach the crowd that just will never come out to a shoot.

No fast food in years? Some of life’s simple pleasures are $2.99 Double cheesebuger meal from MCD, A chic-filet sandwich, A grilld stuft burrito from Taco bell(YUM), any burger from Wendys(WEN)

@Walt – you put your faith in the genetically modified food all you want brother. As long as the GMOs don’t pollute my crops, and the trash, er, food, is labeled so that I don’t accidentally buy it, we’re good.

Excellent show Jack.

I too had a good chuckle at your expense with your bad day rant (mostly because it hits so close to home).

Great show Jack!

I agree with your definition of Liberty, but I think that you overlooked some significant implications of your concepts.

In order to protect individuals from infringing on each other Liberties a government must exist to make and enforce laws and regulations. Government must also play a role in providing for the defense of liberty against external entities. Therefore the government must exist and be funded in such a way to provide these services; yet some members of the society will more directly benefit from these services than others based on their circumstance and location. This is not fundamentally different than other forms of government services that are paid for through taxation yet distributed unequally based on need. If you consider all government services as some level of captivity along a spectrum with the Judicial System on one end and Welfare on the other, I think we could all agree that a line needs to be drawn somewhere in the middle; however, I think you will also agree that where that line is drawn is a subjective judgment with no single correct answer.

I think my line is drawn a little to the left of yours, because I feel that the society has a responsibility to provide a minimum level of protection for the “captive” children until they reach a point where they have the opportunity to obtain liberty. To be specific, I believe that the government should ensure that all children have access to quality education, water, food and healthcare until they reach the age of 17, at which time they repay that debt through their own public service (military, law enforcement, public works, etc) for 2-3 years. At the end of that time, they can return to society and exercise their Liberty.

Would love to hear your thoughts.

Jack,

I seem to have heard you mention sheep and sheepdogs and wolves in a few of your podcasts. Do you get some of your philosophy from Lt. Col. Dave Grossman? “On Sheep, Wolves, and Sheepdogs” if not I highly suggest reading it and passing it on. Great job on this one.
And, on a different subject, I met Ron Hood the other day at the Cabelas in Allen, Tx. He was there selling his Hoodlum Buck 060 knife. He invited me to sit and chat with him for a while. He seems to be a super nice guy and he didn’t even laugh too hard when the chair he offered me folded up underneath me and I busted my ass. It was a very enjoyable conversation. I caught the EDC episode with Ron and would like to hear more from him if you guys get the chance. Keep up the good work.

@Dan 16 I have played around with a portable breathalyser (a cheap $50 one from Brookstone or somewhere). It registers a small reading (or sometimes a very high reading) just by blowing over a drink into it.

.08 was forced down the state’s throats. I think it is much too low, but penalties if someone harms someone else while proven to be impaired (not just a number) should be steeper. It is also a revenue generator and like Jack said, the basis for constitutional “unconstitutional” checkpoints.

I used to be completely “Libertarian” so to speak on a lot of issues. Now, I still am philosophically, but politically I realize as Jack said, that we have much bigger problems to deal with first. I’d like to see the feds get out of mandating a number and tying it to highway funds and let the states determine it.

Excellent show!
