Can an American citizen really "Withdraw Consent" from this government?
And if so, Then how do you live, in the USA, once the withdraw consent is accepted by the US government? Do you still pay taxes? Can you still reside in the USA? Can you still work in the USA without ID, as you would have to turn in any government issued ID.

You got me curious, so I looked this up:

Probably not a wise course of action, but an interesting topic for discussion.

Of course you can withdraw concent. You are an individual, you can do what the hell you like. If you withdraw consent from the government though expect them to come after you. Depends if you have the balls or not i guess.

Hmmm... you have to travel out of the US to renounce citizenship at a diplomatic post.

Then there is a $450.00 fee.

And a 3 to 6 month waiting period.

Nutjob: I wanna renounce my fuckin' citizenship to the fascist evil United States.

Clerk: That will be four hundred and fifty dollars, and your appointment to renounce your citizenship will be scheduled six months from now. Have a nice day.

Re: Can an American citizen really "Withdraw Consent" from this government?
Yes and No. You can do anything you want. The question is, will the pigs leave you alone? The answer is no.

I havn't filed a tax return since 2004 and I owe $10,000 in fines for driving without insurance and a licence. I'm still walking the streets. It's been so long now since I had a real address I doubt they could find me if they wanted to.

You can say fuck it and do what you want and live a cash life off the books but the life is hard and no kind of life for a person with children and responsibilities.

As long as you are prepared for their response when it suits them... lets not forget the meaning and intent behind "Peine forte et dure"..

The only case in America where "Peine forte et dure" was invoked was the case of Giles Corey in 1692 during the Salem Witch trials, Giles refused to participate in the system, fable has it he asked for more rocks to crush him to death.

The last case in England (while some records depute this) was in my neck of the woods in 1735, one John Weeks at Horsham gaol refused to participate in their system ended up enduring "Peine forte et dure", in the end of piling 350 weight on him, a 16 stone Gaolers laid across the top to put him out of his misery.

They have had hundreds of years to attempt to close any loop holes where we can remove ourselves from their systems of governance.

While we can, the fact they came up with "Peine forte et dure" shows how determined they are to ensure we play along by their rules and jump as and when they change them.

Yes.

It's an internet myth. The US Federal government claims authority over all Americans, and frankly, over everyone else on the planet as well.

This isn't a matter of law or justice. They are simply the strongest, most power-mad psychopaths with the most guns.

Even under the CommonWealth when the nations that make up Britain and Ireland where a de facto (and arguably a de jure) "Republic" they still used this form of coercion to get the public to obey their rules.

And that is the notion the lays behind this, where we are all always free men and women, it is the force that is used to coerce us into obeying their rules that seem paramount, even the softer kind used today is still coercion.. While we do not need to follow their rules, we do have to accept that we when we go it alone will at some point always end up dealing with whatever level of coercion they'll use to ensure we follow the path they lay in front of us.

ON a side note I have often wondered where that placed the colonies such as America when Britain and Ireland was a De Jure Republic.
