If you can be forced to pay any amount of property taxes an assessor clams is due, you have no unalienable right to own property.   Fail to pay property taxes and government will initiate a process that will eventually result in the loss of your property for the alleged non-payment of property taxes.

How can you avoid the total loss of your property for non-payment of property taxes?  You must, of course, take your property out of the United States.  Placing yourself and your property within the United States is a voluntary act of  enfranchisement whereby you declare yourself to be a citizen of the United States.

The United States is the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, so, any property, real or personal, left on government land is subject to government regulation, taxation and even confiscation.

Even the most casual reader of  these Posts will be able to bring together from these Posts the events and the dates of  those events which allowed George Washington to establish, in America,  the first democratically elected  military dictatorship.   It doesn’t matter what local elective office is being contested the top office of  President of the United States will always go to a dictator.

By combining in a presumed Office of  the President the two Offices of  President of the United States of America and President of the United States, and causing the misconception that the Constitution of September 17, 1787 had been adopted and was binding on government, George Washington made that illusory Constitution the supreme law of  a mythical land ruled by subordinate State governors who were themselves democratically elected State dictators.  All State governors duplicate the power grab initiated by George Washington on April 30, 1789, when Washington took the oral oath to be President of the United States.    Since the ratification and establishment of the Constitution of September 17, 1787, governors have been democratically elected by the people who claim to be citizens of the United States.  These popularly elected governors operate just like the person in the federal Office of President of  the United States.  Governors are the heads of  those United States and the heads of  State government.

There is no source of civil government power for free people as their power of  self government is their freedom, which is unalienable.   Questioning the credentials of  all government officials who claim the sovereign powers of government will result in a proof such powers are limited to  the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.   The so-called Founding Fathers realized this truth soon after the defeat of  King George III, but kept that fact to themselves while they plotted to take power from the people.   My “Basic Course in Law and Government” is the only instruction in law and the structure of  government based in the Organic Laws of  the United States of America, which are yours for the asking along with information on my $50 trial instruction offer.  To get both, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The lesson of the Organic Laws is that all written laws in America are limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, which is the Confederacy, the United States of America under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

It is universally accepted that the “United States in Congress assembled,” the formal name for the member States of  the Confederacy, had no legislative authority until the United States in Congress assembled gained proprietary power over territory ceded to the United States of America by the States.

The Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 set up a temporary government for the Northwest Territorial States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota and made them part of the Confederacy, the United States of America, making them United States, but not yet United States of America.  From the day of the enactment of the Northwest Ordinance, to the ratification and establishment of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 federal legislation and taxation has been territorially limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

Article I Section 2 Clause 3 of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 provided for property taxation in the States of the new Union established when New Hampshire became the ninth State to ratify and thereby establish the Constitution of September 17, 1787 among those States which have ratified.   Direct taxation of property in the United States of America is, therefore, limited to taxable personal property located, according to federal law, within the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

It will take persistence and perseverance, but any property not located on federal territory eventually may be removed from the county’s tax rolls.

States incorporate cities as commercial enterprises with municipal purposes using the same power with which they charter purely commercial enterprises.  Where is this power to create commercial enterprises found?

We must look to the Organic Laws of the United States of America for the origin of all delegations of power from the American people, and when we look there we find the people of the States have delegated all they are capable of delegating in the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.

The free inhabitants of the United States of America are not only free to exercise their unalienable rights they must do so to remain free.  In short, the people of the United States of America have the unalienable right to govern themselves as individuals, but that right does not extend to others.  No majority of any size has the right to govern by force.

Majority rule has been imposed by the States in the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America acting as the Confederacy pursuant to the authority of the Articles of Confederation.   However, that majority rule is subject to the limitations imposed by the Constitution of the United States, the Constitution which resulted when nine States ratified the Constitution of September 17, 1787.

The Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States reserves to the States or to the people the power to incorporate cities, however, that power is limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, as expressed in the Constitution of the United States.

The key to putting any city in its federal place lies in learning the Organic Laws of the United States of America.  I offer the only Internet law course on that subject.  To learn how you can try out my $500 Basic Course in Law and Government for $50 contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

There are three oaths in the Constitution of September 17, 1787: 1. Senators take an oath before they try a legislative impeachment and because impeachment is a legislative process the exact wording of  the oath is left to Congress.  2.  The person taking the Office of  President of the United States must, before taking that Office,  take by oath or affirmation the oath to that Office expressly required by the Constitution of September 17, 1787.  Because the Constitution of September 17, 1787, also,  imposes no qualifications for the Office of  President of the United States, George Washington was able to be both the Article II President of the United States of America and President of the United States simply by orally taking the following oath: “I, George Washington, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” “So help me God.”   3.  Article VI, Clause 3 of  the Constitution of September 17, 1787 imposed this oath on everybody else in government with the exception of  the President of the United States:

The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation,  to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

What was the Article VI, Clause 3 oath?  A simple signed  “I swear (or affirm) to support this Constitution” on a copy or last page of  “this Constitution” would have sufficed.  No such written oath or affirmation exists.  George Washington’s signature appears on the original Constitution of September 17, 1787, however, as he signed the document before this Constitution was ratified according to Article VII, his signature does not constitute an oath or affirmation “to support this Constitution.”

George Washington and the so-called Founding Fathers fooled the American people.  The signatures on the Constitution of September 17, 1787 including George Washington’s  didn’t mean anything other than it was their submission.   The oral oath Washington took was only good enough to require Bills passed by Congress to be presented to him for his approval or his objections.  The office of  President of the United States of America was vested with the executive power not the President of the United States.

One of  the Bills Washington signed proves the present federal court system has no real judicial powers.  Section 8 of  the Judiciary Act of 1789 requires federal Justices and judges to take an oath or affirmation which does not comply with the requirements of  Article VI Clause 3:

SEC. 8. And be it further enacted, That the justices of the Supreme Court, and the district judges, before they proceed to execute the duties of their respective offices, shall take the following oath or affirmation, to wit: “I, A. B., do solemnly swear or affirm, that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent on me as, according to the best of my abilities and understanding, agreeably to the constitution, and laws of the United States. So help me God.”

The Judiciary Act of 1789 was enacted on September 24, 1789.  The first act of  the First Congress was dated June 1, 1789 and its purpose was  to create a new legislative oath of office pattered after the oral oath George Washington took to become President of the United States.  The new legislative oath would replace the Article VI, Clause 3 oath or affirmation “to support this Constitution,” when   the Constitution of September 17, 1787 failed to be adopted because no President or member of  Congress would be bound by an Article VI, Clause 3 oath.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787 should be and is the textbook example of federal legal legerdemain in my law course, the “Basic Course in Law and Government.”  The Constitution of September 17, 1787 refers to itself as “this Constitution” about a dozen times and only once in the oath of  office of  the President of the United States is there a reference to “the Constitution of the United States.”  It is clear that the constitutional creation of an oral oath for a President of the United States was really to hide the inauguration of  the new Union of  dependent federal States, which was begun with the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787.

The legislative creation of  an oath of  office for “the justices of  the Supreme Court and the district judges,” which ended with “So help me God” was the clearest statement possible that the “United States” would be an entity consisting of the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

The United States Supreme Court and the lower federal courts no longer provide copies of  the oaths of  Office of  Justices and judges after it was discovered that these oaths showed these offices to be territorial.  The oaths of office of  State, county and local will show that they too are federal territorial “judges.”   You can and should demand  copies of  the oaths of  “judges” who might someday try to assert judicial authority over you.

There is no education greater than the one you will get by enrolling in my “Basic Course in Law and Government.”   Government and government schools will only teach what government wants you to know.  For a limited time, you can learn before you enroll.   For a non-refundable $50, you can get all the materials my first Students had to pay $500 to get.   Contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com for all the details and copies of  the Organic Laws of  the United States of America, the foundation for all written law in America.

My “Basic Course in Law and Government,” the legal education course I devised to teach the written law and government, explains how George Washington took over government and caused the English common law to be replaced by government created written law.

How did Washington pull this off?  Very simply, George Washington invented the “inauguration” as a presidential coronation.   This is what Washington did:  First, he got himself elected to the highest office created by the Constitution of September 17, 1787, the Office of President of the United States of America.  Article II, Section 1, Clause 1 vests the executive power of  the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 in that office:  “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows”

What followed was the forerunner of the current “Electoral College” system of electing the President of the United States of America, except no one knows the Electoral College is actually electing “a President of the United States of America.”

This is why no one knows the Electoral College elects “a President of the United States of America” instead of “the President of the United States,”  George Washington was elected President of the United States of America, when the electoral votes were counted in Congress on April 6, 1789.  According to the Constitution of September 17, 1787 Washington became President of the United States of America when the results of the votes were disclosed in Congress.  Washington could have refused the office of President of the United States of America, but he said nothing.  He said nothing about refusing the office.  He did say let’s an inauguration on the day before May Day, an important date in Freemasonry.

On April 30, 1789 George Washington took this oath:  “I, George Washington, do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” “So help me God.”

Did you catch what George Washington did?  Washington was elected to the office of President of the United States of America, which was filled when no objection was made by the person elected.  At the time George Washington took the oral oath of the office of President of the United States, Washington legally occupied the office of President of the United States of America, so he was free to take the employment of President of the United States, as the Constitution of September 17, 1787 imposed no qualifications on the person who would occupy the Office of President of the United States.  The job description of a dictator is that of a person who is both the head of State and the head of the government including the military.  George Washington became the first American dictator and every president since has followed his example.

Our State and nation is the United States of America, the Confederacy of 50 States retaining their sovereignty, freedom and independence under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  The government of the United States of America is limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

The initials POTUS stand for the President of the United States, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, which is a much smaller place than the United States of America the home of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, Article IV free inhabitants.  The Confederacy of States retaining their sovereignty, freedom and independence has been minimized by Google to no greater significance than an alternative rock band that have appropriated for themselves the name” Presidents of the United States of America.”

According to Google, the President of the United States is the leader of the free world and the President of the United States of America is just one of the musicians in a rock group.  You don’t believe me?  Google “potusa.”

In one hundred years no one has been able to satisfactorily explain the meaning of the 16th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.  The explanation that the 16th Amendment permits the Congress of the United States to tax all incomes everywhere is not a satisfactory one, because it is not true.

This is the Sixteenth Amendment:  “The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.”    Notice that the Sixteenth Amendment does not say:    “The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.”  Every authority on federal income taxation understands the 16th Amendment as if the first comma in the sentence that is the 16th Amendment isn’t there.  Here is the 16th Amendment as it was proclaimed to be a part of the Constitution of the United States:

“The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.”

The power of the Congress of the United States to lay and collect taxes on incomes was made public on July 13, 1787 in Article 4 of the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787.  The prepositional phrase, “from whatever source derived” in the 16thAmendment refers to the power to tax within the district, the Northwest Territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.   The source of the “power to lay and collect taxes on incomes” is found in the proprietary power of the Congress over the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787, which has been amended by twenty-seven amendments, is the last of four Organic Laws of the United States of America.   The third, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, determines where the Constitution of September 17, 1787 and its twenty-seven amendments is the Article VI, Clause 2, “supreme Law of the Land.”

While the true meaning of the English sentence that is the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States begins with that sentence as written, the evidence of its territorial limitation to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America is extensive.  The full and complete evidence of the true meaning of the Sixteenth Amendment will be revealed only to my Students enrolled in my “Advanced Course in the Law and Government.”

Only Students who have enrolled in and have completed the “Basic Course in Law and Government” are eligible to enroll in the “Advanced Course in the Law and Government.”  The $500 “Basic Course in Law and Government” may be taken on a trial basis for a non-fundable $50.  For more information on the Courses or to get the four Organic Laws of the United States of America in a computer searchable format, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The Office of the Los Angeles County Tax Assessor makes this bold claim on its website: “State law mandates that all property is subject to taxation unless otherwise exempted. Your property taxes support necessary services provided to the residents of Los Angeles County. These include law enforcement, fire protection, education, parks and recreation, and other vital services.”

To what state law does the LA Tax Assessor refer?

CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION, ARTICLE 13 TAXATION

SEC. 1.  Unless otherwise provided by this Constitution or the laws of the United States:

(a) All property is taxable and shall be assessed at the same percentage of fair market value. When a value standard other than fair market value is prescribed by this Constitution or by statute authorized by this Constitution, the same percentage shall be applied to determine the assessed value. The value to which the percentage is applied, whether it be the fair market value or not, shall be known for property tax purposes as the full value.

(b) All property so assessed shall be taxed in proportion to its full value.

What doesn’t the Assessor tell you?

The Assessor doesn’t explain why only personal property located within the federal territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America might be subject to forced taxation.  The government of the State of California within California is the only one which has been authorized by Congress to tax property within the State of California, however, because the State of California is the designation for the federal territory, within California, owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America, only non-federal personal property can be taxed.  Before admission into the second Union, a State must promise not to tax federal property, which leaves only the personal property not owned by the United States of America subject to property taxation.

CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION, ARTICLE 3 STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SEC. 1.  The State of California is an inseparable part of the United States of America, and the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land.

The above sentence means the State of California is the same kind of federal territory made a permanent part of the Confederacy by Article 4 of the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, so only non-governmental personal property located on the federal territory within California is taxable.

Joining the Confederacy under the authority of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 did not require any transfer of territory within that State.  Territory claimed by a State of the first Union, the United States of America, which had been ceded to the Confederacy became a permanent part of the Confederacy pursuant to Article 4 of the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787.  The Northwest Territory was comprised of what would be the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota, so it can readily be seen how the term “United States” would come to mean the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America. The territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America is also “the United States Constitution” George Washington swore to “preserve, protect and defend.”

Once the American people freed themselves from the British tyrant, King George III, only force could openly subject them to the same kind of blatant tyranny.   The Confederation Congress, George Washington and the politicians of the time managed to re-install the same kind of government which had been expelled by a violent revolution, without firing a shot.

Using trickery and deceit, it only took a few Americans, who could keep a secret, led by George Washington to replace American freedom with one onerous central government.   My “Basic Course in Law and Government” explains how George Washington created the American Presidential dictatorship and my “Advanced Course in Law and Government” helps Students achieve near total freedom.   A $50 trial version of the $500 Basic Course in Law and Government along with the Organic Laws is still available by contacting me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The perennials, death and taxes, have existed since kings have ruled, so why should it be so surprising to learn any legal basis for all taxation ended in America with the fall of King George III.  Monarchs reigned and their subjects consented or suffered the consequences.  The end of the monarchy in America should have been the end to predatory government and taxation, but written law was just getting started.

The principle of the equality of men announced in the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776 precludes 50%+1 of them from voting a tax on the other 50%-1, but it did not prevent the constitutional chicanery concocted by George Washington and his crew.  The result of that chicanery was a Congress and President unrestrained by an adopted constitution and limited only by the depth of the ignorance of the America people.

The brilliant Founding Fathers are long gone and no one of their ilk remains to continue the great constitutional hoax.  The petty bureaucrats who have inherited the constitutional confidence racket haven’t a clue as   to how it works, so once we begin to pick at the loose ends the whole structure will fall.

It would be a mistake to challenge taxation at the top where it is strongest.  First, demand that your property be removed from the property tax rolls.  You will soon learn no government official claims authority to remove property from the tax rolls, so why shouldn’t you have the right to remove it.  Once you complete my “Basic Course in Law and Government,” you can qualify as an Advanced Student in the field of your choice.  To get all the details, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

My course of  instruction in the law and government, the Basic Course in Law and Government, shows the Student how to use the Organic Laws of  the United States of America, the Declaration of Independence of July 4, 1776, the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 and the Constitution of September 17, 1787 to prove all governments in America are legally limited to  the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.  Public education is an unrelenting extolling of the magnificence of the American Democracy minus the revelation that the democratic State is limited to the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

The first Organic Law the Declaration of Independence served written notice to the world that an oppressed people could declare themselves free of an ancient government.   The second Organic Law established the Confederacy of the United States of America, which would prosecute the American Revolution to a negotiated peace with Great Britain.

The third Organic Law of the United States of America, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, is a direct refutation of the notion the Confederacy, the   United States of America, was without the legislative power to tax or enact laws.   The Northwest Ordinance is proof at the Organic Law level the Confederacy possessed taxation and legislation power over the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America and no other.

The Basic Course in Law and Government, finally, shows how George Washington used the fourth Organic Law, the unadopted Constitution of September 17, 1787, to consolidate the power of the two Offices of President into the present day American Democracy.

Neither the Democrat Party nor the Republican Party is capable of righting the many wrongs visited on Americans since George Washington first combined the two Offices: President of the United States of America and President of the United States, which evolved into the great American Dictatorship, the Twelfth Amendment President.  Only my, Basic Course in Law and Government reveals enough of the Constitution’s secrets to place the Student in command of American written law and government.

Today, anyone who can read and understand simple English can be privy to the secrets hidden in the Constitution of September 17, 1787 by the Framers of the Constitution.   The Organic Laws of the United States of America is the legal basis for all the written laws enacted since George Washington swore to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”  You can, just for the asking obtain computer searchable copies of all four Organic Laws.  In addition, I will extend a special $50 offer to everyone who inquires, special access to the Course Materials my first Students paid $500 to obtain.  To get the free Organic Laws and all the details on the $50 offer, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

The issue of whether or not a State could secede from the first Union, the Confederacy, the United States of America, or the second Union of dependent federal States, was purportedly decided by the War Between the States, however, as that war was prosecuted using the power and authority of the unadopted Constitution of September 17, 1787 and Constitution of the United States, the right of a State to secede from either Union remains unsettled.   Secession of a kind is readily available to any individual not confined to territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

The legal history and the official written record of  the written law and government of  the United States of America, after King George III is removed as the head of  state and government , is found in the four Organic Laws of  the United States of America.  The first Organic Law recognizes the inherent freedom of all mankind in general and the American people in particular.  The remaining three Organic Laws: the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 and the Constitution of September 17, 1787 are binding upon the two classes of States which constitute the two Unions.  The inhabitants of those States and the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America are subject to the written law of those States and the United States of America while physically present on the territory belonging to the United States of America.    

The right of the American people to be free from government regulation is expressly provided for in the provision for personal abstention from political life in Article IV of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777.  These Articles, which are binding on all the member Confederate States, were the first written Constitution for the United States of America.  The third Organic Law of the United States of America, the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, was an act of the United States in Congress assembled, which was binding on the settlers and inhabitants of the District, soon to be known as the United States.

The Constitution of September 17, 1787, had it been legally adopted by the members of  a government, would have been the Constitution for the United States of America, as the Preamble suggests, because the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 was then the  Constitution of  the United States of America.   The purpose of the Constitution of September 17, 1787, when lawfully adopted, was to make permanent the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787 as the Constitution of the United States.  George Washington took the oral oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” however, adoption of the Constitution of September 17, 1787 failed when no one was bound by subscribed oath “to support this Constitution,” the Constitution of September 17, 1787.

The planned failure to adopt the Constitution of September 17, 1787 allowed the federal government, the United States of America, to begin the “administration” of the United States of America as if it were, the United States, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.  Unconstrained by the unadopted Constitution, the federal government has conflated the United States of America into the United States, the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America.

An unadopted Constitution of September 17, 1787, while still binding on the State governments, does not bind the people.   The people either individually or en masse are free to “secede” from State Unions they were never a part of.            

Secession from the Union of States constituted of   the territory owned by or subject to the exclusive legislative power of the United States of America is accomplished by the individual severing all ties to the “quasi-government” headed by the President of the United States.  Attaining the freedom and independence of a free inhabitant under Article IV of the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777 requires a basic understanding of all four Organic Laws.  Upon your request, I will e-mail you all four Organic Laws in a computer searchable format, along with my offer of a $50 special trial of my $500 “Basic Course in Law and Government.”  You may also begin the Course without payment of any kind by reading the more than 700 Posts on this website.  No matter how you start contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com to get the Organic Laws.
