    Oh, I figured that part out pretty quickly; and I can’t say that I’m unsympathetic to the cause. Threatening someone with action like a lien that requires the government to enforce that lien makes no sense. I do believe that there’s a lot of law that was passed in ways that mean we the people should be able to freely rescind consent, or which violates the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, or which is in direct defiance of the British, French, and Spanish common law treaties that remain the basis of the US legal system.

    That’s between me and the officials, though. Between me and everybody else (even cops, btw - they’re not elected officials, they’re just jackboots doing a job - if they didn’t enforce the laws, someone else would, and I’m under no misconception that the replacement would be any nicer), we’re all in the shit together and nobody gets out alive - so to quote one of the founding fathers, we must all hang together, or surely we will all hang separately.
