"American Independence" is a Misnomer

People have been making their way to Independence Day celebrations all week long. While all well and good, most of us do not understand that we are still obligated to the Britannic Crown as we have been since the French-Indian War some twenty years prior to the outbreak of the American Revolution. For instance, the U.S. Constitution does not allow for titles of nobility granted by the United States:
"No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State." - Article 1, Section 9, Clause 8
An esquire ("Esq.") is a title of nobility appended to lawyers once they become barristers ("Bar-risters") and are admitted to the Bar. Since common law originated in the United Kingdom, barristers from the U.K. are privileged with using the Esq. title and, therefore; as are lawyers practicing law in the United States.

Further, constitution ("constitutio" in Latin) constitutes a debt instrument settled between a debtor and creditor.  Whenever a constitution is created, it establishes what party owes what to whom and when. The U.S. Constitution is no different. It took the Treaty of Paris in 1783 to halt the American Revolution and the U.S. Constitution some years later to constitute the outstanding debt owed to the Crown. The American Revolution was premised on the British North American Colonists refusing to repay war debt from the days of the French-Indian War.

Moreover, the Civil War was premised on the Confederate states attempting to secede from the Union, which was interpreted as the Confederate states absconding from their outstanding debt obligations established in the U.S. Constitution. Further attempts by federated states within the Union to secede in the current day will only cause more political tension with both the U.S. government and the Crown, which will result in armed conflict if states do not honor their current position as it relates to the Union and the Union's obligations to the Crown.

In the 18th century, many Scottish peoples refused to pay taxes to the Crown and were apprehended into debtor's prison. When the Crown was confronted with the situation of populating the British North American colonies with worker's for it's East India Company territories, a noble presented the idea to commute the sentences of Scottish criminals to the colonies or have them continue to serve the remainder of their prison terms behind bars, thus the term "Scot-free" was born. In essence, dating back to the colonial roots, the United States has always been a "prison camp."

So, as we continue in our celebrations this weekend, do keep in mind that you have no true freedom nor liberty according to the Law of nations. On Monday, you will return to work from weekend festivities wondering "how exactly am I truly free if I am forced to show up to barely make it paycheck-to-paycheck"? Harriet Tubman once said that she freed a thousand slaves and could have freed a thousand more only if they knew they were slaves.

  1. Where does it say debt contract below?

    constitution (n.)
    mid-14c., "law, regulation, edict," from Old French constitucion (12c.) "constitution, establishment," and directly from Latin constitutionem (nominative constitutio) "act of settling, settled condition, anything arranged or settled upon, regulation, order, ordinance," from constitut-, past participle stem of constituere (see constitute). 

    Meaning "action of establishing" is from 1580s; that of "way in which a thing is constituted" is from c. 1600; that of "physical health, strength and vigor of the body" is from 1550s; of the mind, "temperament, character" from 1580s. Sense of "mode of organization of a state" is from c. 1600; that of "system of principles by which a community is governed" dates from 1730s; especially of a document of written laws since the U.S. and French constitutions, late 18c.

  2. You must be looking up the definition of the word in a word dictionary rather than a legal dictionary. Words take on different meanings in legal dictionaries.

    For instance, while you have correctly defined the word from a word dictionary, Black's Law Dictionary defines it as: "A sum paid according to agreement"; "…establishment or settlement," etc.

    Constitutio is Latin for a debt obligation. A constitution is an instrument used to officiate that debt obligation and who has what role as it relates to the outstanding obligation.
