It also states that ETOs are necessary for a rights-based international legal order, as globalization has increased the impact of states' actions abroad and the gap in human rights protection.

This document discusses the concept of domicile and how it relates to jurisdiction and taxation. It argues that domicile is a voluntary choice of political affiliation protected by the First Amendment. Only one domicile can be claimed, and that place provides the main source of civil protection. Domicile determines whether one is subject to the jurisdiction of a government for tax or other civil purposes. The document analyzes domicile through both secular and religious lenses, asserting that choosing a domicile within a man-made government can constitute idolatry for Christians whose domicile should be in God's kingdom. It maintains that domicile must be consented to voluntarily and avoids civil statutory law and status.
This document is a disclaimer and license agreement for the Sovereign Citizens Movement Disclaimer website. It begins by citing a Bible passage about spiritual warfare and putting on armor to withstand attacks from wickedness. It then summarizes the website's contents and outlines its intended audience. The main section asserts that most of the website's content constitutes religious speech and beliefs rather than facts, in order to prevent legal issues. It cites several Supreme Court cases establishing the right to publish anonymously and the tradition of anonymity in political advocacy. The purpose is to avoid potential government retaliation for exposing illegal activities, as has occurred historically.
Excellent succinct reference to talk about citizenship and domicile in legal proceedings and discovery to prevent misunderstandings about your sovereign status.
This document discusses the differences between citizenship status and tax status. It notes there are both statutory and constitutional contexts for these terms, and they can have different meanings depending on the context. There are four types of citizenship statuses and four tax withholding statuses that are compared. The relationship between domicile and citizenship status is examined, as are the meanings of geographical terms. The document provides information to help understand how human beings can become statutory "individuals" or "persons" for tax purposes, and the different types of "persons" that exist. It also examines how citizenship and domicile options relate to each other and provides rebuttals to common arguments about these topics.
This document contains answers to potential press questions about sovereignty advocacy. It begins with definitions of a "sovereign" and discusses the goal of sovereignty advocacy as protecting individual rights and freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution. It addresses questions about whether the group advocates violence, distributes false legal information, or believes people should not pay taxes or use government identification numbers. The document provides detailed responses while denying accusations that sovereignty advocates are anti-government or terrorists. It cites numerous court cases and laws to support its perspective on individual sovereignty and limited government.

Definition
Collectivism: a political or economic
theory advocating collective control [e.g.
OWNERSHIP] esp. over production and
distribution or a system marked by such
control.
[Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary,
1983, ISBN 0-87779-510-X, p. 259]

Main Elements of All Governmental Systems
• Chief characteristics of all
governmental systems can be
summarized with four main elements:
1.Origin of human rights: State or
Creator?
2.Legal relationship of humans to the
state: Equal or inferior?
3.Ownership of property: PUBLIC
ownership v. PRIVATE ownership
4.Proper role of law in the state:
Preventing Harm v. Promoting
Good?
19MAY2014 Collectivism and How to Resist It, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org
12. 12
Origin of Rights
• Governmental systems can have three possible sources for
“rights” within their legal systems:
1. Private human source. For example, contracts or franchises. Protected
by the common law and the constitution.
2. A religious source. God’s laws define societal morality. Theocracies in
the middle east implement this approach.
3. The state as an atheistic collective. Implemented using the civil law.
Sometimes religious sources are the starting point for such systems.
• A mixture of the above is possible in each governmental
system.
• Humanism and “man worship” and idolatry results when
option 3 above is the only one permitted.
• Within the legal field, the “creator” of a right or privilege in
the text of a law is:
– The owner if the right or privilege and all who exercise it.
– The only one who can take away that right or privilege.
• Who your “lawgiver” is determines who your “god” is.
• Since every society is implemented with law, then every
society has a “god”, including atheistic societies.
19MAY2014 Collectivism and How to Resist It, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org
13. 13
God’s approach to the origin of “rights”
1. Law is in every culture religious in origin. Because law governs man and society, because it
establishes and declares the meaning of justice and righteousness, law is inescapably religious,
in that it establishes in practical fashion the ultimate concerns of a culture. Accordingly, a
fundamental and necessary premise in any and every study of law must be, first, a recognition
of this religious nature of law.
2. Second, it must be recognized that in any culture the source of law is the god of that society. If
law has its source in man's reason, then reason is the god of that society. If the source is an
oligarchy, or in a court, senate, or ruler, then that source is the god of that system. [. . .]
Modern humanism, the religion of the state, locates law in the state and thus makes the state, or
the people as they find expression in the state, the god of the system. As Mao Tse-Tung has
said, "Our God is none other than the masses of the Chinese people."[2] In Western culture, law
has steadily moved away from God to the people (or the state) as its source, although the
historic power and vitality of the West has been in Biblical faith and law.
3. Third, in any society, any change of law is an explicit or implicit change of religion. Nothing
more clearly reveals, in fact, the religious change in a society than a legal revolution. When the
legal foundations shift from Biblical law to humanism, it means that the society now draws its
vitality and power from humanism, not from Christian theism.
4. Fourth, no disestablishment of religion as such is possible in any society. A church can be
disestablished, and a particular religion can be supplanted by another, but the change is simply
to another religion. Since the foundations of law are inescapably religious, no society exists
without a religious foundation or without a law-system which codifies the morality of its
religion.
5. Fifth, there can be no tolerance in a law-system for another religion. Toleration is a device used
to introduce a new law-system as a prelude to a new intolerance. Legal positivism, a humanistic
faith, has been savage in its hostility to the Biblical law-system and has claimed to be an "open"
system. But Cohen, by no means a Christian, has aptly described the logical positivists as
"nihilists" and their faith as "nihilistic absolutism."[3] Every law-system must maintain its
existence by hostility to every other law-system and to alien religious foundations or else it
commits suicide.

Legal relationship of Humans to the State
• Only two types of relationships are possible between
people and the state:
1. Equal.
2. Inferior and a “subject”.
• The Declaration of Independence says ALL men are
created equal.
• We ALL start out equal.
• The government therefore can never become
SUPERIOR to us without our express consent.
• Equality of rights under the law is what MAKES you
equal to the government.

15. 15
Legal relationship of Humans to the State
• If the government is source of your rights then they
can take them away and make you inferior to them
under the law. That is why the Declaration of
Independence says that your rights come from God
rather than the State.
• Even in a government where rights come from God,
governments can make you inferior to them by:
– Enticing you with a bribe called “benefits”. Form #05.040.
– Getting you to consent to accept the bribe and thereby consent
to all the legal strings attached to the bribe. Form #05.003.
– Thereby replacing PRIVATE rights under the Constitution with
PUBLIC rights under a franchise contract or agreement. Form
#05.030
• This conversion of PRIVATE RIGHTS to PUBLIC
RIGHTS cannot occur without your express consent!
• You should NEVER consent to surrender your equality
in relation to government.

Proper role of law in the state
• There are only two different approaches to the use of
law in defining the proper role of the state:
1. Providing legal remedies for injuries AFTER they
occur. Based on equality of all under the law.
2. Preventing harm and promoting “good”. Based on
inferiority between the governed and the
governors.
• These two approaches compete with and undermine
each other because of their differing approaches
toward equality between the governed and the
governors.

18. 18
Proper role of law in the state
• Providing legal remedies for injuries AFTER
they occur is:
– Based on equality of all parties under the law.
– Usually implemented using EQUITY and the COMMON
LAW.
• Preventing harm and promoting “good” is
implemented using the CIVIL STATUTORY
CODE.
– This code is also what is called “the social compact” in
legal parlance.
– This civil statutory “code” is what we call a “civil
protection franchise”.
– Only members who expressly consent to join a specific
society and thereby acquire the statutory status of
“citizen” or “resident” are or can be the subject of this
“code” or “civil protection franchise”.

Maxims of Law
“Protectio trahit subjectionem, subjectio projectionem.
Protection draws to it subjection, subjection, protection. Co.
Litt. 65.”

Bastiat on the Proper Purpose of “law”
“What, then, is law? It is the collective [VOLUNTARY] organization of
the individual right to lawful defense. Each of us has a natural right—
from God—to defend his person, his liberty, and his property. These
are the three basic requirements of life, and the preservation of any one
of them is completely dependent upon the preservation of the other
two. For what are our faculties [RIGHTS] but the extension of our
individuality? And what is property but an extension of our faculties?
If every person has the right to defend—even by force—his person, his
liberty, and his property, then it follows that a group of men have the
right to organize and support a common force to protect these rights
constantly. Thus the principle of collective right—its reason for
existing, its lawfulness—is based on individual right. And the common
force that protects this collective right cannot logically have any other
purpose or any other mission than that for which it acts as a substitute.
Thus, since an individual cannot lawfully use force against the person,
liberty, or property of another individual, then the common force—for
the same reason—cannot lawfully be used to destroy the person,
liberty, or property of individuals or groups.”
[The Law, page 2, by Frederic Bastiat (1801-1850)

Ownership of property
• Only two approaches to property ownership are possible
under any governmental system:
– PRIVATE ownership. Humans own and control the use of the property and
have a right to deny even the government the “benefits” of said
ownership.
– PUBLIC ownership. State owns or controls the use of the property.
• A mixture of the above is possible and sometimes desirable.
• The essence of “ownership” is the “right to exclude” any and
all others from using or benefitting from the use of a thing.
• If you don’t have the right to exclude the GOVERNMENT from
using, benefitting from, or taxing a thing, then:
– You aren’t allowed to own the thing as PRIVATE property.
– Your ownership is QUALIFIED rather than ABSOLUTE.
– There has at some point been a transition of the property from ABSOLUTE
to QUALIFIED by your EXPRESS CONSENT.
– You should INSIST that the government satisfy the burden of proof to
demonstrate with evidence that it is the LAWFUL owner of the property
and how that ownership was lawfully acquired. A PRESUMPTION of
ownership alone is a violation of due process.
• A state with no PRIVATE ownership is a collectivist state.

How to Introduce Collectivism Into a Society
1. Write the constitution so that the state is the origin of
and creator of all rights and rights are actually
revocable privileges.
2. Make every government service into a franchise. See
Form #05.030.
3. Make the government into the owner or at least
PRESUMED controller of all property. Thus, there is
no PRIVATE property. This is done through
“registration” and “licensing”. Social Security
Numbers represent the institutionalized mechanism to
donate PRIVATE property to a PUBLIC USE.
4. Make all courts into FRANCHISE courts in the
EXECUTIVE Branch, rather than CONSTITUTIONAL
courts in the JUDICIAL branch. See Form #06.012.
5. Use financial institutions to compel everyone to be a
PUBLIC officer by compelling use of government
identifying numbers such as SSNs and TINs.
19MAY2014 Collectivism and How to Resist It, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org
25. 25
How to Introduce Collectivism In Society
6. Confuse the nature of rights by calling both PUBLIC
rights and PRIVATE rights simply “rights”. This
allows PRIVATE rights to be converted to PUBLIC
rights without changing their name.
7. Abuse “words of art” to make PUBLIC and PRIVATE
property indistinguishable.
– Use multiple definitions for geographical terms and refuse to
identify which context is implied in each use.
– Illegally make statutory “citizens” into PUBLIC OFFICES and
franchises in the government and make PRIVATE humans
indistinguishable from said offices.
– Make PRIVATE workers LOOK like statutory “employees”.
– Make PRIVATE earnings LOOK like earnings from a PUBLIC
office.
– Make CONSTITUTIONAL states LOOK like federal PUBLIC
corporations or STATUTORY “States”.
8. Abuse government publications as propaganda that
encourages the civil statutory law to be MISAPPLIED
against PRIVATE humans. See Form #05.037.
19MAY2014 Collectivism and How to Resist It, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org
26. 26
How to Introduce Collectivism In Society
9. Illegally incentivize judges to abuse “choice of law”
rules to in effect KIDNAP NONRESIDENT PRIVATE
humans and make their effective domicile the
DISTRICT OF CRIMINALS, often without their
knowledge or express consent. See 28 U.S.C. §144,
455 and 18 U.S.C. §208. See Form #05.020.
10.Prevent the study of law in the public schools, so that
the average citizen is UNABLE to defend their
PRIVATE rights, PRIVATE status, and PRIVATE
property. Do not allow jurists to read the law while
serving.
11.Avoid and silence and punish any and all attempts to
expose the principles in this document. Abuse the tax
system as the means of political control of such
activities. Illegal substitute return tax assessments
are the method of penalty.
19MAY2014 Collectivism and How to Resist It, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org
27. 27
How to Introduce Collectivism In Society
12.Interfere with attempts to invoke the common law or equity
in court for cases against the government. This forces
people to become STATUTORY privileged “citizens” and
public officers to get ANY remedy at all for injuries inflicted
by government abuses and usurpations.
13.Refuse to allow litigants to invoke the Constitution as a
remedy for usurpations. Force them to use the civil law
instead to force them into a privileged status.
14.Grant to the U.S. Supreme Court the right to NOT hear cases.
Thus, cases involving violations of constitutional rights can
be “censored” from the court record. This was done with
the Certiorari Act of 1925. See Form #11.302, Section 6.4.1.
15.Use government propaganda to get private parties to file
false reports that create the appearance that PRIVATE
property is PUBLIC property. This allows government to
blame others for their THEFT. See Form #04.001.

Collectivism in the Bible
• Collectivist governmental systems
in the Bible:
– Babylon under Nimrod. See Gen. 10:8-9, 1
Chron. 1:10.
– Joseph serving under Pharaoh. See Gen.
47.
– Nehemiah. See the Bible Book of
Nehemiah.
– Caesar while ruling Rome. See Bible
Books of Matthew, Mark, Luke
– King David. See Bible Books of Kings and
Judges.

Collectivism is a state sponsored religion
• Collectivism can only exist by enforcing an UNEQUAL
relationship between the GOVERNED and the GOVERNORS.
• When the people are inferior to the “state” under the law,
then:
– The law implements a civil religion.
– The religion is based on the state having “superior” or “supernatural”
powers in relation to those governed.
– “Taxes” become tithes to the state church.
– “Worship” becomes “obedience” to the dictates of the superior or
supernatural being.
– “Citizens” become “worshippers” of the collective or human rulers
representing the collective. They are “public officers” and agents of the
collective.
• The First Amendment to the USA Constitution FORBIDS state
establishment of religion. Therefore, it forbids the franchises
that implement the religion anyplace but federal territory not
protected by said constitution.

Implementing collectivism with law: Franchises
• All collectivist systems are implemented in law by
using or abusing franchises.
• Examples of franchises:
– Public offices. See Form #05.008.
– Corporations. See Form #05.024.
– Public utilities.
– Professional licensing.
– Driver licensing. See Form #06.010.
– Marriage licensing. See Form #06.009.
– Government “benefits”. See Form #05.040.
• Those who participate in franchises:
– Are serving the state as statutory “employees” and/or public
officers. They are INFERIOR to the state.
– Have to DONATE their PRIVATE property to PUBLIC property to
procure the “benefits” of the franchise. Hence, they may not
own PRIVATE property if they participate.

31. 31
Implementing collectivism with law: Franchises
• Franchises are implemented using “offices” within the
government. Those who volunteer for such offices are
violating the First Commandment (Exodus 20:4) and serving
other Gods if the government is unequal in relation to the
people.
• God forbids Christians to engage in franchises with any
government. Exodus 23:32-33, Judges 2:1-4, Rev. 18:3-8.
• It is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to understand every aspect of
how franchises are implemented so that you can avoid them
and thus avoid violating God’s laws.
• Further details on franchises:

How collectivists promote and protect their SCAM
• Every collectivist system relies on the
following elements to protect itself:
– Propaganda. Used to misrepresent what the law
says or allows.
– Censorship. Usually implemented by threatening to
destroy livelihood if people speak out.
– Bribes and conflict of interest.
– Abuses of sovereign immunity to protect PRIVATE
business activity by de facto government.
– Identity theft that connects you to a PUBLIC status
and public office.
• These elements:
– Prevent the need for GOVERNMENT violence to
ensure “voluntary compliance”.
– Make the FRAUD “economically efficient”.
19MAY2014 Collectivism and How to Resist It, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org
33. 33
How collectivists promote and
protect their SCAM: Propaganda
• Propaganda includes
– Public/government schools that deny students a legal
education, thus making ALL their rights and property
subject to the corrupted whims of a licensed legal
profession.
– Government phone help that is untrustworthy and not
accountable for accuracy or truthfulness.
– Government publications that are untrustworthy and
which reflect “policy” rather than what the law actually
says.

How collectivists promote and
protect their SCAM: Censorship
• Censorship includes:
– Control over the press through licensing and “selective
enforcement” of the tax system against dissidents.
Reporters are targeted by DOJ who speak out about
government corruption.
– Control over the churches through licensing or 501(c )(3)
status and “selective enforcement” of the tax system
against dissidents. Churches and nonprofits are targeted
if they speak out against injustice or advance reforms.

How collectivists promote and protect
their SCAM: Bribes and Conflict of Interest
• IRS pays judges BONUSES for convicting tax
defendants.
• IRS pays U.S. attorneys BONUSES for convicting tax
defendants.
• U.S. attorneys have a financial interest in the outcome
and therefore cannot try a case or conduct discovery
without a conflict of interest.
• Jurors and judges are illegally bribed with government
“benefits” to convict those who don’t want to subsidize
the cost of those “benefits”.
• U.S. attorneys routinely and CRIMINALLY CREATE and
perpetuate further conflict of interest by telling judges
and jurors that their benefits will go down or the cost of
their “benefits” will go up if they do not convict those
who refuse to participate in government franchises.

How collectivists promote and protect their
SCAM: Abuses of sovereign immunity
• Abuses of sovereign immunity allow entire cases and
specific charges to be dismissed from litigation for cases
involving violations of tax laws.
• Judges illegally invoke sovereign immunity to protect
government wrongdoers. They do this BECAUSE of the
financial bribes they receive.
• Nonresident PRIVATE parties not subject to the civil
statutory “codes” and who are protected ONLY by the
constitution may not have their CONSTITUTIONAL issues
dismissed because of sovereign immunity.

How collectivists promote and protect their
SCAM: Identity Theft
• Governments cannot regulate or tax you until they can
deceive you into procuring a public franchise status
• Examples of franchise statuses include:
– “citizen” or “resident” (under any civil enactment)
– “taxpayer” (under the tax code)
– “individual” or “person” (under any civil enactment)
– “spouse” (under the family code)
• Legal deception is usually used to get you to unknowingly
volunteer. The deception always deals with:
– Geographical terms.
– Citizenship statuses.
– Franchise statuses.
• The deception is documented in:
Legal Deception, Propaganda, and Fraud, Form #05.014
http://sedm.org/Forms/FormIndex.htm
• For exhaustive details on all the techniques of government
identity theft, see:

Collectivism in the Courtroom
• There are TWO types of civil courts:
1. COMMON LAW OR CONSTITUTIONAL COURT. Based on equality. Used
for disputes between PRIVATE, EQUAL parties.
2. FRANCHISE COURT. Based on inequality and franchises. Implemented
using civil statutory law ONLY. The constitution does NOT apply in
franchise court.
• Collectivism requires that all courts must be franchise
courts.
• In the USA Constitution, the authority for implementing
franchise courts is either Article I or Article IV.
• Examples of franchise courts:
– Traffic court.
– Family court.
– Tax court. See 26 U.S.C. §7441.
• All “rights” vindicated in franchise courts are PUBLIC rights.
PRIVATE rights and PRIVATE property are not allowed.
• Those who are not franchisees cannot lawfully enter into
franchise courts. If they do, they are criminally
impersonating a public officer in violation of 18 U.S.C. §912.

Resisting Collectivism
• Resisting collectivism requires:
1. Insisting that there IS not government if there IS not
PRIVATE property or PRIVATE rights. The Declaration
of Independence defines what “government” is, and it
says the ONLY purpose is to protect PRIVATE rights.
2. Not consenting to anything the government does or
offers, and thereby retaining your exclusively PRIVATE
and legislatively “foreign” status.
3. Avoiding all government franchises and quitting all
those we have previously joined. This ensures that all
our property is PRIVATE.
4. Approaching every interaction with the government as
an opportunity to contract away or surrender PRIVATE
rights or PRIVATE property.
5. Avoiding any and all civil statuses to which PUBLIC
RIGHTS, privileges, or franchises attach.
19MAY2014 Collectivism and How to Resist It, Copyright Sovereignty Education and Defense Ministry (SEDM) http://sedm.org
41. 41
Resisting Collectivism
6. Avoiding franchise courts and litigating only in
COMMON LAW or CONSTITUTIONAL courts.
7. Invoking the common law and avoiding the civil
statutory law in the courtroom. The civil statutory law is
a protection franchise called the “social compact”.
8. Forcing the government to satisfy the burden of proof
that you voluntarily donated any and all property they
seek to take or enforce against in court. See Form
#12.025.
9. Insisting that every attempt to enforce the civil statutory
law is an act of unconstitutional taking of otherwise
PRIVATE property.
10.Insisting on jury trial.
11.Ensuring that everyone on the jury and the judge do not
have a conflict of financial interest because of their
PUBLIC or FRANCHISE benefits.

Conclusions
• Collectivism is the enemy, not fascism, Nazism, communism,
or socialism.
• The methods by which collectivism is introduced into a
culture are simple and easily understood.
• Resisting collectivism within our personal lives requires us
to study and learn the law personally and to invoke it in our
own defense.
• If you would like to learn more about law, the legal
foundations of collectivism, and how to fight it in the
courtroom (Form #12.019), we admonish you to download

Conclusions
• There is much to know in order to effectively combat illegal activity
of all kinds by the government, including illegal enforcement of the
tax code (franchise) by the IRS
• SEDM exists to provide educational materials that will help you get
educated
• We won’t fight the battle for you, but we provide tools to help you in
your own fight to defend your rights as a “nontaxpayer” and a
sovereign American National
• We can only educate and equip people who:
– Consent to our Member Agreement
– Are “nontaxpayers”
– Are not STATUTORY “U.S. citizens”, “U.S. persons”, or “U.S. residents”
– Have no STATUTORY “income” connected with a “trade or business” in the United
States (government)
– Live outside of the federal “United States”/federal zone
– Have committed themselves to getting educated so the IRS can’t exploit their
ignorance to victimize them
– Do not have any contracts, agency, or employment with state or federal governments
• Getting educated and being vigilant in defending your PRIVATE
rights is the key to staying sovereign
• We want to help you get educated, be self governing, and separate
yourself from the government “matrix”. We as believers are the
“church” and everyone else is the “state” and we seek separation of
church and state. That separation is, in fact, the foundation of the
separation of powers doctrine.
