American Citizens compared with Slaves and Serfs
The Fugitive Slave Act was passed in 1850 to deal with the problem of runaway slaves and the weakening of a 1793 law with the same objective. All people want to keep the fruits of their labor and when this desire is violated they seek some remedy, whether it be a change in the law or a change in location. If a slave could make it to Canada he was probably safe from the slave catchers. Some northern states had laws against black people – slave or free – moving into the state, so Canada was probably the best option. If a slave could escape to a free area he could keep all his earnings since there was no income tax at the time.

Today the state of affairs is a little different. If an American citizen wants to keep all his income there is no place to escape to. If such a person moves to Switzerland, Uganda, Haiti or Antarctica the IRS wants its “share” of his income. It doesn’t matter that the person no longer lives in the US or makes any money in the US, just by virtue of citizenship, Uncle Sam wants his share.

If the plantation owner of yesteryear could somehow reap the benefits of the runaway slave’s labor no matter where he was, he would have had no incentive to capture him and bring him back. What difference would it make where he was if the “owner” still had an irrevocable claim against his productivity? The slave had an advantage over the modern counterpart if he could escape the country.

In feudal times there were serfs known as serfs “regardant” and serfs “in gross.”

When a free person trades time and effort for money, it's an even trade.

But a slave's labor is taken by force. Therefore, any wages earned by a slave are pure profit. And taxed accordingly.

Re: American Citizens compared with Slaves and Serfs
AC,,

There ARE ways to avoid paying "tribute". But it is a very long, deep and convoluted rabbit hole. With MANY pitfalls and traps.

The ways are out there,, and available,, if you know where to look. Those who practice this will NOT hold seminars nor will they do anything that draws attention to themselves. So do NOT expect that type of "reception" when you search this information.

If there ARE seminars and meetings,, trust this AC,, they ALL are for personal profit of those holding those events.

Good luck in your search ,, Try the search here for RKEN,,when he was posting here he was very well versed. I truly hope he achieved the freedom he was close to attaining.

Much love

peace
