(15) “United States” means— (A) a Federal corporation; (B) an agency, department, commission, board, or other entity of the United States; or (C) an instrumentality of the United States.
United States Congressional Record, March 17, 1993 Vol. 33, page H-1303
Speaker-Rep. James Traficant, Jr. (Ohio) addressing the House:
"Mr. Speaker, we are here now in chapter 11.. Members of Congress are official trustees presiding over the greatest reorganization of any Bankrupt entity in world history, the U.S. Government. We are setting forth hopefully, a blueprint for our future. There are some who say it is a coroner's report that will lead to our demise.
Prior to 1913, most Americans owned clear, allodial title to property, free and clear of any liens or mortgages until the Federal Reserve Act (1913) "Hypothecated" all property within the federal United States to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, -in which the Trustees (stockholders) held legal title. The U.S. citizen (tenant, franchisee) was registered as a "beneficiary" of the trust via his/her birth certificate. In 1933, the federal United States hypothecated all of the present and future properties, assets and labor of their "subjects," the 14th Amendment U.S. citizen, to the Federal Reserve System. In return, the Federal Reserve System agreed to extend the federal United States corporation all the credit "money substitute" it needed. Like any other debtor, the federal United States government had to assign collateral and security to their creditors as a condition of the loan. Since the federal United States didn't have any assets, they assigned the private property of their "economic slaves", the U.S. citizens as collateral against the unpayable federal debt. They also pledged the unincorporated federal territories, national parks forests, birth certificates, and nonprofit organizations, as collateral against the federal debt. All has already been transferred as payment to the international bankers. Unwittingly, America has returned to its pre-American Revolution, feudal roots whereby all land is held by a sovereign and the common people had no rights to hold allodial title to property. Once again, We the People are the tenants and sharecroppers renting our own property from a Sovereign in the guise of the Federal Reserve Bank. We the people have exchanged one master for another. This has been going on for over eighty years without the "informed knowledge" of the American people, without a voice protesting loud enough. Now it's easy to grasp why America is fundamentally bankrupt. Why don't more people own their properties outright? Why are 90% of Americans mortgaged to the hilt and have little or no assets after all debts and liabilities have been paid? Why does it feel like you are working harder and harder and getting less and less? We are reaping what has been sown, and the results of our harvest is a painful bankruptcy, and a foreclosure on American property, precious liberties, and a way of life. Few of our elected representatives in Washington, D.C. have dared to tell the truth. The federal United States is bankrupt. Our children will inherit this unpayable debt, and the tyranny to enforce paying it.
With the passage of the Act of 1871, a series of subtle and overt deceptions were set in motion — all in conjunction and collusion with the Congress, who knowingly and deliberately sold the People down the river. Did they tell you this in government school? I doubt it. They were too busy drumming the fictional version of history into your brain — and mine. By failing to disclose what THEY did to the American People, the people became ignorant of what was happening. Over time, the Republic took it on the chin to the point of a knockdown. With the surrender of their gold in 1933, the People essentially surrendered their law. I don't suppose you were taught THAT in school either. That's because our REAL history is hidden from us. This is the way Roman Civil Law works — and our form of governance today is based upon Roman Civil Law and Admiralty/Maritime Law — better known as the "Divine Right of Kings" and "Law of the Seas", respectively. This explains a lot. Roman Civil Law was fully established in the original colonies even before our nation began and is also known as private international law.
BAR Codes drive me crazy! Most of the chain strores want to sign you up to a discount club, where they give you a card with a Bar Code to track all your purchases. They give you a few pennies off for doing that on each purchase and the stores that use them really push them. I always respond when they ask me for a discount card or to join the program "I am not a bar code!".

Here is a little tip most of them do not require you to give them your name. The clerk may not know but if you are a little persistent someone in the store will know and give you a discount card without you having to give them any information. I have several of them.

LOL, you census conspiracy people are too funny.
I didn't send it in. A woman came to my door, was very polite. Asked me the short questions. Name, Age, Race, Rent/Own. That was it...took like 2 minutes.
It is confidential...
Did you know that the Bush administration tried to get census information in order to deport illegals and the supreme court upheld that the information was confidential and couldn't be accessed by the government in any way except as a counting measure of population?
My guess is probably not.

Probably not!
Did you know that the President of the United States is not the most powerful person in the United States?
Probably not!
Do you know that there is a Shadow Government that runs the United States?
Probably not!
Interestingly enough one of the few Politicians to speak about the fact that we are in Bankruptcy and have been for a very long time was James Traficante, who a short time later was oddly enough sent to prison on charges he is still appealing to this day.

If the government really is a tyrannical super corporation that wants to or already rules the world, aren't they first going to come after the people that are so super paranoid about it that won't even fill out a simple 10 question form of things that you probably think the FBI or CIA knows (or could quickly find out) about you?
Whether a citizen or not, if you are a United States resident, you are required by law to take part in the U.S. Census. Written into the Constitution, a census has been taken every 10 years since 1790 to provide a count of those living in the United States. To ensure accuracy, the federal government may impose penalties, in accordance with 13 USC Sec. 221, on those who do not take part in the survey.
Do you know about?
1) The book I.B.M. and the Holocaust?
2) The C.E.O. of I.B.M., Thomas Watsom, assisting Adolph Hitler, through the Census, in Germany, while simultaneously I.B.M. conducted the Census in America?
3) The ties of all of the history, to the R.F.I.D. chip, and N.T.S.B., OnStar, XM-Radio, Sirius Radio, Wal-Mart, and S.D.I. and Cell Phone Towers?
You have had five census takers not because you have some correct legal grounds for what you are talking about, but rather because they are not educated enough in the law to know that you are full of it…..and my friend you are full of it…
Right off the bat your premise is incorrect.

That link took me to the ADL militia watchdog site. Didn't the ADL want to censor the internet along with Cass Sunstein? I think there was a thread started when some of our own members ended up on their list. Oh yeah, here it is.

The ADL huh? Yeah right.

It is totally absurd, and your references again are irrelevant. TPTB (see I am versed in conspiracy acronyms, so that should prove to you that I am not as ignorant as you assume me to be) already know all the information that will be collected in a census.
Now if you live in the backwoods, with no bank/credit/cable/electricity/car/children/gun/medial need/or at the very least contact with the real world, then I can see how you might be paranoid about the information collected. But aside from that, there is no information that will be gathered that will give any organization power over you that they do not already have.

Two more important things are at play here the first being RESIDENT AT
Main Entry: 1res•i•dent
Pronunciation: \ˈre-zə-dənt, ˈrez-dənt, ˈre-zə-ˌdent\
Function: adjective
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Latin resident-, residens, present participle of residēre

1 a : living in a place for some length of time : residing b : serving in a regular or full-time capacity ; also : being in residence
2 : present, inherent
3 : not migratory
Resident
Here we have another word based in Latin, so there are some legal ramifications to this word, particularly, (b) serving in a regular or full-time capacity.
Who am I serving in a regular or full-time capacity? The United States®, according to the 14th Amendment to the Constitution.
residence n. 1) the place where one makes his/her home. However, a person may have his/her state of "domicile" elsewhere for tax or other purposes, especially if the residence is for convenience or not of long standing. 2) in corporation law, the state of incorporation.
