This letter is intended for every serving member of the current Congress, the Executive, the Administrators,
The Judiciary, and the Federal Government at large.
“To ignore history is to commit oneself to repeating it.”
Do Any of you Remember this?
“ When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessar y for one people to dissolve
the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the
powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of
nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they
should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be selfevident, that all men are created equal, that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable r ights, that among these are life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these r ights, gover nments are
instituted among men, der iving their just powers from the consent of the gover ned.”
The preceding declaration carries as much relevance today, as it did when originally penned in 1776. I shall,
in the following letter, provide current examples of violations so similar that only the substitution of “the
United States Government” in place of the “King of England” is required to bring these charges fully current
and parallel to those which impelled the separation of the colonies from the Kingdom of England.
Do not tread lightly upon the souls of men.
Some within government, I have no doubt, believe that the actions of Government are just and in the best
interest of the American people. I contend, that, inside of our general government there are those, who only
act in the preservation of their own power, ideology, connections, and individual affluence.
The Soul of our Republic is being torn asunder with little regard for the genuine consequences of government
actions.
The general government has repeatedly reached far beyond its' Constitutional author ity. This meddling
in the selfdeterminate lives of the populace have proven destructive and contrary to the principles of freedom
which this great land was founded upon. To provide to any man that which he has full capacity to earn on
his own is deviously cor rupt, essentially serving to erode the freedom of that individual's mind. To loose
the iron shackles of physical bondage only to entrap the citizen in a gilded cage of entitlement and selfpity.
What has become the shameful standard of gover nance in this land, is repugnant, vile, and
destructive of individual as well as national character. You act to preserve your posterity. You act to subvert
the intent and purpose of good government. You br ibe your constituencies with their own stolen
prosper ity, while depr iving them the gifts of liber ty granted not by gover nment, but by
our universal creator.
In the following pages, the case against you, your unwise actions or intentional usurpations shall be laid
forth.
The case against you:
The history of the nation to date from the start of the Progressive movement, closely mirrors the following
declaration;
If a violent revolution is your aim, your every action contrary to the Constitution will eventually cause this
same violent revolt. You must cease and desist. Violent revolutions always preclude periods of absolute
anarchy and unimaginable barbarity. You are directly responsible to the American people for the consequences
of your practices and legislation. Should violent revolt grab this nation in its unforgiving claws, it shall be
your souls which are answerable for its' release. I have come upon a statement which I think should be
considered heavily prior to your consideration of ANY policy, law, regulation, or action.
“I give you ever ything required for you to A CHIEVE your full measure of happiness.
These simple laws which I lay upon you are not to depr ive your happiness, but to
preserve it.” God, by any one of a thousand names given throughout the whole of human
history.
The history of the present leviathan federal government, is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all
having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be
submitted to a candid word.
“They have refused their assent to laws, the most wholesome and necessar y for the
public good.”
The establishment of protected classes, entities, and individuals in the specific laws which affect the citizens
at large. Injure many to effect remedies ultimately destructive to a protected few. Governments who, in their
ignorance or arrogance, imbalance society through the passage and enforcement of inequitable laws and
enforcements, pit one citizen against another, with the misguided or intentional aim of increasing their own
power or to perpetuate their own careers and fortunes. This practice is evil, this practice is
immoral, this practice is destr uctive and must cease.
“They have forbidden the Governors and State Legislatures to pass laws of immediate
and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till their assent should be
obtained; and when so suspended, they have utterly neglected to attend to them. “
To this claim, no words of my own are required other than to remind the intended audience of this letter of
the intent of the 9th and 10th Amendments to our Constitution. A few most relevant sentiments from our
distant, often misrepresented or misinterpreted, or even ignored past follow:
“ The article nearest my hear t is the division of counties into wards. These will be pure
and elementar y Republics, the sum of all which, taken together, composes the state, and
will make of the whole a tr ue democracy as to the business of the wards, which is that
of nearest and daily concer n (emphasis added). The affairs of the larger sections, of
counties, of states, of the Union, not admitting personal transactions by the people, will
be delegated to agents elected by themselves; and representation will thus be substituted
where personal action becomes impractical. Yet even over these representative organs,
should they become cor r upt and perverted, the division into wards, constituting the
people....a regularly organized power, enables them by that organization to cr ush,
regularly and peaceably, the usur pations of their unfaithful agents, and rescue them
from the dreadful necessity of doing it insur rectionaly. In this way we will be as
republican as a large society can be, and secure the continuance of pur ity in our
government by the salutar y, peaceable, and regular control of the people."
*Thomas Jefferson
" The powers of the general gover nment relate to exter nal objects, and are but few.
(emphasis added) But the powers in the states relate to those great objects which
immediately concer n the prosper ity of the people *James Madison*
" The plan of the convention declares that the power of Congress, or, in other words, of
the national legislature, shall extend to cer tain enumerated cases. This specif ication of
particulars evidently excludes all pretension to a general legislative author ity, because
an aff irmative grant of special powers would be absurd as well as useless if a general
author ity were intended.”
*Alexander Hamilton*, speaking about the provisions of Article 1, Section 8, U.S.
Constitution.
You must cease and desist.
“ They have endeavored to prevent the population of these states; for that purpose
obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners; refusing to pass others to
encourage their migration hither, and raising the conditions of new appropr iations of
lands. “
The first and most vital principles of good citizenship require a healthy and uniform respect for and
adherence to the just laws of a nation. To offer amnesty to those who have willingly and flagrantly ignored
the laws of naturalization of this nation, or by the general government to willfully and with political intent
disregard or misrepresent the actual laws of naturalization. You cannot build a nation of free men absent the
immigration of law abiding, productive citizens. The repeated cries of racism are dishonest, disingenuous, and
patently abusive of the principles of our Constitution. One law, one standard, one nation.
“ They have erected a multitude of new of f ices, and sent hither swar ms of of f icers to
harass our people, and eat out their substance.”
The establishment of the Internal Revenue Service, its' constant expansion. The creation of the Department
of Homeland Security, The Social Security Administration, The Department of Education, The
Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Energy, The Occupational Health Administration, The
myriad of new bureaucracies to be created under the Health Choices Act of 2010.....these are nothing short of
a perpetual stream of agencies with the sole intent of destroying states sovereignty, and subjecting the whole
body of the American people to the absolute control of the State. We did not consent to this.
“They have combined with others to subject us to a jur isdiction foreign to our
constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving their assent to their acts of
pretended legislation: “
To this charge, I raise the often considered conspiratorial, though never disproved premises that this nation
has gradually been subjected to the detrimental actions of the Council on Foreign Relations, The United
Nations and its many intrusive programs and agendas, The Bilderberg Group, The Fabian Society, the Federal
Reserve Bank (a private corporation), the International Monetary Fund, The World Bank , the Trilateral
Commission, the multitudinous organizations influencing politics with direct ties to Communist or Fabian
regimes. You were never granted authority to cede the sovereignty of “We the People”. You will be exposed.
A bad cause seldom fails to reveal itself. Violent revolution is at your feet. You cannot crush the human spirit
absent its' fight to exist. You cannot determine through central planning, the individual's right to self
determination.
Free trade agreements which grant special treatment to the products of one nation over another and in many
cases over those of your own country can be seen as nothing short of intentionally destructive of our
prosperity. Government involvement which seeks to level competition by restricting it is destructive.
“For imposing taxes on us without our consent:”
The total taxation of the average citizen now approaches 50% of his total earnings. Whether by federal,
state, county, city, embedded taxation in the products necessary for survival or happiness, or the destructive
taxation of currency inflation, you must cease and desist.
To specific issue is the federal tax on income from whatever source derived as provided for in the 16th
Amendment. The tax was proposed to the people as a system of taxation which fairly distributes the needs of
the general government among those members of society most capable of meeting it. This pretense is AT BEST
a manipulative means of political advancement, At WORST, Marxist in nature with respect to wealth
redistribution. If this current system is Fair, why does it require over 67,000 pages of legislation and
regulation to def ine it?
This system was best described by Congressman S.E. Payne of New York ,
“As to the general policy of an income tax, I am utterly opposed to it. I believed with
Gladstone that it tends to make a nation of liars. I believe it is the most easily concealed
of any tax that can be laid, the most diff icult of enforcement, and the hardest to collect;
that it is, in a word, a tax upon the income of the honest men and an exemption to a
greater or less extent, of the income of rascals;”
To this comment, I add the following. Corporations and those who control them do not pay taxes, they
collect them by embedding them in the price of the products or services they sell. Our current system of income
taxation, the Internal Revenue Code, and the IRS are not centrally instr uments of revenue, but
are weapons against the honest wielded by the cor rupt. Direct taxes on incomes are destructive
to productive behavior and they encourage malaise and poverty. Corruption runs rampant where taxes can be
manipulated with deference. If taxes on incomes are to be the law of the land, then they must be uniform and
equal amongst the citizenry. Some will pay more, some will pay less, but all will bear equal burden to their
own freedom. In this equal burden lies on key to controlling corruption and profligate fiscal irresponsibility.
“For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighbor ing province, establishing
therein an arbitrar y gover nment, and enlarging its boundar ies so as to render it at once
an example and f it instr ument for introducing the same absolute r ule in these colonies:”
The non stop capture of state lands by the federal government in the name of ecological protection, wild
horse protection and any number of other general nonrelated reasoning. These practices only serve to deprive
the individual states and the citizens of same of their just and sovereign rights to the resources and uses of
same property. There is no Constitutional authority granted to the general government to capture or seize any
property in the name of environmental, economic, or security interests. No compensation can be honestly
deemed reasonable when the transaction deprives the states or the people of prosperity and selfdetermination.
“For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and alter ing
fundamentally the forms of our gover nments:”
Under the construction of the Constitution, The House of Representatives was to represent the rights and
interests of the people in the federal government. The Senate was to represent and protect States' rights in the
federal government. “The Founders and Framers of our Constitution had assigned the Senate the
responsibility of representing the states as sovereign entities, which is why they were appointed by the
Legislatures of their respective states rather than being elected directly by the people of the state. This was so
that Senators would not be compelled to involve themselves in the popular issues of the day, but could
concentrate primarily on protection of states rights and on maintaining the established order. Theirs was the
primary assignment of balancing the budget, keeping taxes as low as possible, and tempering the radicalism of
the House.” The Making of America, Skousen By passing the 17th Amendment, Allowing for popular election of
Representatives, Senators, and the Executive (via an all or nothing Electoral College. Another distortion of
original intent), Congress has fundamentally altered the system of checks and balances and transformed this
nation from a Constitutional Republic to a true democracy. Where both houses of Congress now represent the
popular will with no preservative checks against the erosion of States Rights. This is not what was intended.
It allows the emotions of current affairs to supersede the principles of balanced, limited, and representative
government.
“For suspending our own legislatures, and declar ing themselves invested with power to
legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.”
One only needs to examine any number of the thousands of laws and regulations which ignore or nullify the
9th and 10th Amendments either overtly or circuitously.
“They have excited domestic insur rections amongst us, and have endeavored to br ing on
the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless” socialist / marxist “savages, whose
known rule of war fare, is undistinguished destr uction of all ages, sexes and conditions.”
To this I point to the true history of events in the rise of communism, European style socialism, the rise of
Nazi Germany, the cases never disproved which were brought to light by the McCarthy Hearings, the secret
combinations of power arrayed against our Republic revealed by Dr. Carrol Quigly in “Tragedy and Hope”, the
nonstop dereliction of our currency by the Federal Reserve, the rampant corruption of our social and political
scenes by controllers from beyond our own shores. To these points, countless volumes have been written, yet
no action taken to reverse them. This is unacceptable.
Your action or inaction will be directly responsible for the fall of the last free nation on earth. Regardless of
your specific ideology, you took an Oath to preserve, protect, and defend our Constitution of
These United States. If you are not willing or able to satisfy this oath, you should consider yourself
unworthy of the public trust or criminally liable for any and all violations of the Oath and damages to the
freedom of a sovereign people.
“I n every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble
terms: our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injur y. A pr ince,
whose character is thus marked by ever y act which may def ine a tyrant, is unf it to be
the ruler of a free people.”
I find no means of improving or updating this quotation...the only object being the federal government
rather the King of England and his puppet parliament.
It is possible to continue this line of reasoning for an indefinite period of time and innumerable pages. The
result will not change. The basic case against you resides in the simple assertion that you are transforming
this government into a more perverse and oppressive beast than the one which Impelled our separation by
Declaration of Independence and bloody War. Please, you must stop. This nation is at a boiling point.
Unclench the great fist of Government and hear a mighty sigh, as our nation once again reclaims its' rightful
claim,
“Land of the Free, and Home of the Brave.”
