.......and the True Nature of the U.S. - The Informer
From the very first paragraph below it is evident, and self-explanatory, that you cannot even bring
up an Insular cases because they do not apply and is why the courts will not even consider your briefs,
thereby leaving a fractured brief that is not understandable. My comments to the whole quote below,
if any, are in brackets [ ].
IV. Insular Cases
The clause of the Constitution which declares that duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform
throughout the United States does not apply to nor govern these cases, because the term "United
States", as there used, means only the territory comprised within the several States of the Union, and
was intented only for their benefit and protection, and not for the benefit or protection of outside
territory belonging to the nation; in the latter sense, duties on imports from these islands are uniform
throughout the United States, because they are uniformly imposed at every port of the United States,
so that there is no preference given the imports of one State over those of another, nor is any
inequality between the several States created.
Provisions of the Constitution
Article I, Section 8, of the Constitution is as follows: "Congress shall have power to lay and collect
taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general
welfare of the United States; but all duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the
United States."
Other provisions of the Constitution to be considered in association with the foregoing are these:
"No capitation or other direct tax shall be laid unless in proportion to the census or enumeration
hereinbefore directed to be taken." "No tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any State."
"No preference shall be given by any regulation of commerce or revenue to the ports of one State
over those of another, nor shall vessels bound to or from, one State, be obliged to enter, clear, or pay
duties in another." "No State shall, without the consent of the Congress, lay any imposts or duties on
imports or exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing it's inspection laws; and
the net produce of all duties and imposts, laid by any State on imports or exports, shall be for the use
of the treasury of the United States; and all such laws shall be subject to the revision and control of
the Congress." "No State shall, without the consent of Congress, lay any duty of tonnage."
Meaning of the term "United States"
This designation is first used in the Declaration of Independence, is continued in the Articles of
Confederation, and in the present Constitution.
It has different significations, according to the connection and the sense in which it is used. It,
may signify:
1. the corporate name of the nation or governmental entity, the same as was provided in the
Articles of Confederation, which declared, "the style of this confederacy shall be the Unites States
of American." [People, I have been telling you that US of A is corporate since 1990. So has
Montgomery, because the colonies were all corporate charters of the Crown and the Confederacy
was also because it was a satellite of the Crown under a different name.]
2. The States united referring to the several States composing the Union. In this sense, of course,
it excludes Territories. [This is why you can't use any Insular case to support your arguement on
IRS taxes.]
3. The international sense, designating the extent of our domain as a sovereign nation.
In this sense it includes all territory under our dominion wherein no other nation has sovereignty
even such as may be under out control by temporary conquest, as Tampico, Mexico, during the
Mexican war (Fleming v. Page); while in a domestic sense it includes geographically [There is the
word geographically that appears in the IRC in definitions of 7701.] the States of the Union and such
territory as the President and Senate have by treaties expressely annexed to and made part of the
United States, as the Hawaiian Islands
Under the first head are classed such expressions as : The Treasury of the United States, service
of the United States, Coin of the United States, Seat of government of the United States, President
of the United States, Government of the United States, Office of honor, profit or trust under the
United States, Office under the authority of the United States, Credit of the United States.
Under the second head are such expressions as: We, the people of the United States, Congress
of the United States, Senate of the United States, To establish a uniform rule of naturalization and
uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcy throughout the United States, Time of choosing electors,
etc., to be the same throughout the United States, Duties, imposts, and excises shall be uniform
throughout the United States.
[Please note the italicized words (Web editor's note: There were no italicized words in the article this was taken from, you will have to look it up yourselves, sorry) In both the Bluebook a Uniform
System of Citations, 15th Edition, and Webster's Dictionary an italicized word is defined as such;
(b) "Foreign words or phrases. Itlaicize foreign words or phrases that have not been incorporated
into common English usage. (c) Hypothetical parties and places. Italicize individual letters when used
to present the names of hypothetical parties or places." Webster's also states, "They are used to
distinguish words for emphasis, importance, antithesis, and etc." Does this phrase apply to the first
sentence found in the very first paragraph in the English language or are they hypothetical? Are they
talking about the nation or the insular possessions, because Article I, Section 8 certainly does not
apply to the people in the States united, now do they, because the last italicized phrase applies to the
first paragraph and the "Provisions of the Constitution" wherein they are talking about the corporate
United States and it's Insular possessions when it comes to taxation.]
The Source of Political Power
All the authority of the United States is derived from the people of the States. The people of the
Territories do not and can not share or contribute to the authority. The people of the States alone
elect Congressmen; and States choose Senators and electors. Congress alone, composed of Senate
and Representatives from the States, can make laws for the government of the whole nation. No
Territorial legislature can possibly be empowered to legislate for any portion of the United States.
Government by the people under our system means by the people of the several States. A
republican form of government is guaranteed to the several States, but not to Territories. Outside the
area of the United States considered as a union of States, there is no political power, no guarantee
of republican government, no pledge against local discriminations by way of port charges, or
regulations of commerce, or revenue, or tax on exports; nor any rule of uniformity as to duties,
imposts, and excises.
The judicial power of the United States as defined by the Constitution does not extend to territory.
Territorial courts are established under the clause which authorizes Congress to make all needful
rules and regulations respecting the territory belonging to the United States. Insurance Co. v. Canter,
1 Peters, 511; Clinton v. Englebrecht, 13 Wall., 447.
These are but two pages 200 and 201, of the Insular cases that was sent to me by Boilen Ed from
www.atgpress.com, stating he found where the United States is a corporation and is our proof that it
is by this court case. Now the courts cannot say you are wrong when 28 USC 3002(15) is in
agreement with these cases and the evidence is the US of A uses commercial paper in it's
transactions subjecting it to the law merchant rules as it has lowered itself to a simple law merchant
corporation. I agree, do you?
