Yeah you're right I suppose, and I understand how we are all been played by the system. FWIW, I am self-employed as a web designer, but aside from that I do as I am told because apparently this is the norm and it appears this is how to live a comfortable standard of life. I do see what he's trying to do, but it's to little avail unfortunately because of people like me. I don't have a driving licence because I'm unaware, I have a driving licence because I just don't have the time to challenge the truth.
The fact that you clearly know the game kinda makes it all the worse and I sympathize because it is not an easy predicament. But you can still make an impact without being all too confrontational. Just by refraining from posting defeatist comments and supporting those that are doing what you no doubt would love to do. Talking to people about the corruption and system at every opportunity, etc.
I have come up against the system for some shocking reasons. The worst was when my son was born at home unassisted (no midwife/doctor etc. it is totally lawful and legal btw). We had police at our door forcing us to take the midwives care (which is unlawful and is in fact battery. We had social services investigate us as a result of us declaring and using our rights! We were in the end vindicated and left alone! My son is now 10 months old and still is not "registered".
Another point to consider is, is it really easier to just comply? It may appear that way but ask all the people that lost their homes due to the financial collapse that was most obviously fraudulently implemented. Even if it wasn't planned where are the arrests? Where is the responsibility ? You had government and big business in on the whole fiasco. So these people that no doubt work and pay their taxes, have licenses and such (seeing as they own a home) lost it all from no fault of their own but rather due to the criminals you say we should follow to make our lives "easier".
You could also ask the people of greece if going along to get along is getting them anywhere.
I'm not trying to lecture you, I know that living life against the grain is not easy, I was threatened with losing my children! But I see no alternative! There are thousands of laws and it is pretty much certain that at some time you may well fall foul of one of them at one time or another. Or as I mentioned above you could get caught up in the mess the criminals in "power" instigate. Besides what exactly will we leave for our children if this system is allowed to continue due to our apathy?
We MUST fight back surely?
Don't get me wrong, every day and night I think how we're all been played by the system, and I feel sorry for the people who really don't have a clue, because I look at them as if I'm watching a movie, not really a part of it....ya know. Only last month I ummed and arrred about taking my daughter to recieve her MMR injections, I'm aware of everything but the more I think about it, the more I just want to blend into society........my daughter had her injections that day. Some people, such as Dave are so profoundly frustrated at the whole situation they dedicated their lives to making a change. I just don't know where I can help yet....maybe one day I'll be on hand to assist in unveiling the curtain? It sure as hell won't be recinding my driving licence though!
With all due respect, I am an Englishman that chooses to live on the other side of the world because I find it much more free than the country I was born in. Dave and you may think you are correct but I can assure you that you are not, its just your opinion that is all!
The way Dave reacted to being stopped by an officer doing his duty was pathetic, he is just argumentative and has no manners, he was aggressive and provocative without due reason. That is my opinion and I am entitled to it, am I not?
Dave may think he knows the law better than others, but how much has it helped him? I am looking forward to his posts to find out!
You and Dave may think your responsible by driving without insurance and as Dave states in response to me that has only ever had one accident and had to cover a thousand pounds in damages however, he has been lucky thus far. What if in the future Dave smashes up someone's expensive car and puts the driver and/or passengers in a wheelchair for life or godforbid kills someone, what happens then? Does Dave have the capability to make restitution for hundreds of thousands or even millions??? I rather doubt it, whereas an insurance company does and that is why you buy it, for yours and others protection! Is it a business racket, sure you have to fight them to get any payouts for yourself!
Just because you and Dave think its ok to have an unregistered, uninsured, vehicle on public roads, it does not make it right! You may be anti-society, you may want to change society to what you think is right, good luck with that however, again it does not make you correct!
Finally, the funniest part of the video was when Dave was denying driving a motor car! That was hilarious, what are you driving if not a 'motor car' a spaceship? Get real here!

This is pretty much what Gypsy's do and how they can get away with a lot of thing most people cant. Yes some laws are exempt when you do this but it is also a very stupid thing to do because you loose a LOT of benefits. No JSA, No NHS and lot of governmental services will help you, also no NI number. I don't think many countries support this way of life though, it is technically created for people who want to live a free life like hermits and extreme hippy's who want to go out into the wilderness and live off the land. But like a lot of law's it is abused.
I liked your post up until this point. lol
You really think only hippy hermits want to live like this? LOL
I don't know many hippies that are also hermits actually. They are normally outdoors kinda people.
Any way the way of life is very appealing to me. Keep the NHS and all the other so called "benefits" and I'll live my life without hurting anyone or stealing from anyone. That is fair enough isn't it? I'll put nothing in and take nothing out. How about that?

Private health cover? Imagine if you paid zero taxes (even vat?) how much extra cash you would have?
What does the day and age have to do with it? This is a very exciting time to be alive because we are setting the foundations of true freedom and responsibility. You can either take a back seat or get involved. It is a really eye opening and exciting journey to take but more importantly it is an inevitable journey. It really confuses me how people will see the corruption of power again and again but still think it will work this time! Isn't that the definition of insanity?
Any way have a little listen to stefan molyneux on youtube. He covers many subjects from a philosophical point of view. It is very good brain food.
OK yeah, but the only work you can do is cash in hand a lot of companies don't work that way, I would have to be self employed, whos gonna hire someone with no NI number. I still feel uncomfortable not having a great service like NHS about.
