standard, and prohibition against paying debts, removed the substance for our
Common Law to operate on, and created a void, as far as the law is concerned.
This substance was replaced with a "Public National Credit" system where debt
is money (The Federal Reserve calls it "monetized debt") over which the only
jurisdiction at is Admiralty and Maritime.
HJR-192 was implemented immediately. The day after President Roosevelt
signed the resolution the treasury offered the public new government securities,
minus the traditional "payable in gold" clause. Article I, Section 10, Clause 1,
proscribes the States making any thing but gold and silver coin a tender in
payment of debt -- but, this Article does not contain an absolute prohibition
against the States making something else a tender in transfer of debt.
HJR-192 prohibits payment of debt and substitutes, in its place, a discharge of
an obligation -- thereby not only subverting, but totally bypassing the "absolute
prohibition" so carefully engineered into the Constitution. There is, now, nothing
for this Article to operate on, just as there is nothing for Common Law to
operate on. Perpetual debt, bills, notes, cheques and credits fall within a totally
different jurisdiction than contemplated by Article I, Section 10, Clause 1 -- and
that jurisdiction belongs exclusively to the Law of Admiralty and Maritime. Now,
it is easy to see how "bills" as plenty as oak leaves, "polluted the laws after the
War For Independence, as described by Peletiah Webster". This is how we lost
access to substantive Common Law -- the very law the Minute Men fought to
regain.
HJR-192 places every person who deals in the public national credit in the legal
position of a merchant, and the only jurisdiction over any controversy involving
this subject matter is Admiralty and Maritime. Obviously, if we cannot pay our
debts at law, we are also benefiting from limited liability under the Limited
Liability Act when we use this credit-- and, that is marine insurance!
The definitions of "liability" and "insure" will help convince us of this fact -- in
analyzing these definitions, keep in mind the distinction between "payment" and
"discharge". Liability: The word is a broad term. It has been defined to mean: all
character of debts and obligations. . . any kind of debt or liability, either absolute
or contingent, express or implied . . . condition which creates a duty to perform
an act immediately or in the future . . . duty to pay money or to perform some
other service . . . the state of being bound or obligated in law or justice to do,
pay, or make good something. "Insure: "To engage to indemnify a person
