THE SEARCH FOR TRUTH IS A DANGEROUS THING 
by Harold Thomas

Late in 1988 I began to learn the details of a friend's difficulty 
with the Internal Revenue Service. Some months later this friend and 
I were married. From that time until the present, her "difficulty 
with the IRS" has evolved into a dumbfounding series of revelations 
which have turned my notions of reality utterly upside down. It is 
said that the truth is stranger than fiction; this is a deception. 
Most people's truth is, in fact, nothing but fiction -- at least in 
varying degrees. 

The purpose of this document is to share with you my discovery, my 
shame, my outrage, and my commitment -- in a word, the LIE. With the 
help of an amazing variety of intense, sincere, and fiercely 
independent individuals, I have discovered that the major portion of 
my life's blood, my life's energy, has been systematically and 
diabolically transfused into the veins of a beast. I have been 
deliberately miseducated, defrauded, and manipulated from my infancy 
by human beings who held authority and should have been trustworthy. 

Those same individuals have made me a party to evil acts of a scope 
and magnitude which, at times cause my spirit to shrink almost to the 
point of being extinguished by shame. The shame is most painful with 
the realization that my susceptibility and servicability to the LIE 
came, and continues to come, as a result of the LIE within me and my 
inability or unwillingness to face it. I would like to believe that I 
did not face it in the past because I simply had no idea how much 
evil was being conducted with my misinformed, apathetic support. From 
this time forward, I pray that I may be unalterably committed to 
opposing the LIE in every aspect of my personal life and in the 
public forum as my human strength and ability may allow. 

It is now late in 1992. After thousands of pages of reading, hundreds 
of hours of audio and video tapes, astronomical phone bills, and 
countless hours of personal conversation, it occurs to me that this 
information carries with it an obligation to share with every person 
willing to consider it. Therefore, I am trying to create a document 
which I can give to people I have known over the years, people who 
know that, inspite of my faults, I simply would not make up something 
like this. 

In the hope that you will actually finish this reading, it is more 
like a telegram (a distress signal, if you will) than a documented 
textbook. Detail and references will be, of necessity, largely 
lacking. However, there will be a reading list on the last page which 
will provide a small sample of the sources with which you may readily 
search out and verify the statements herein. I sincerely hope that 
this reading will either shock, dismay, disgust, or anger you enough 
to cause you to make an honest attempt to prove it wrong. 

Probably less than two percent of the population of the United States 
of America have any meaningful awareness of this information, and 
without it they have literally no hope of understanding or dealing 
with the various things which are planned and may happen to them. A 
few years ago, I myself would have rolled my eyes at the previous 
sentence and probably not taken too seriously whatever followed. No 
more. I used to think that I was one of the more "well informed", 
having fairly diligently searched for truth (as I supposed) in areas 
of religion, philosophy, psychology, and enough politics to become 
cynical (and useless). I was one of the brave wisemen prone to 
ridiculing those who fawned over the emperor's obviously nonexistent 
new clothes. The "emperor's new clothes" turns out to be the largest 
red herring in the history of analogies. For while preoccupied with 
whether or not to acknowledge his clothes, we have not bothered to 
make sure that the emperor is really even the emperor. And guess 
what ... . He's not!!! 

Next will follow a series of outrageous statements, some of which you 
may have heard before. Previously you may have dismissed these ideas 
as extreme or not worth considering because "there's not much a 
person can do" or "the United States is still the best place in the 
world to live" (translation: I'm comfortable. Don't bother me.). Now, 
I beg you, if my acquaintanceship has ever brought anything positive 
into your life, please do me the favor of completing the reading of 
this document. I am so convinced as to the validity and importance of 
this information that I am quite willing to risk being considered 
stark raving mad by everyone whom I have ever known, including my 
family. If you do not know me, please complete the reading out of 
respect for whoever cared enough to share the document with you. 

You are probably not aware and may find it hard to believe that: 

1. There is no law which makes a citizen of the United States of 
America, working in the fifty states of the Union, liable for a tax 
on income or for the filing of a return. The entire code of laws 
purporting to impose income taxes on individuals and corporations 
should be and could easily be declared void for vagueness, but the 
vagueness is essential because the entire system is based on 
confusion and intimidation. Whether you believe this taxation should 
exist or not is not even relevant. Even if you think the government 
is great and taxation is necessary, you have a major problem if you 
are an honest individual. Your government is engaged in a major fraud 
and violation of many of the God-given rights of your fellow 
citizens, which rights are supposedly protected by the Constitution 
of the United States of America. 

I have communicated in great detail with "tax experts", attorneys, 
members of Congress, the Secretary of the United States Treasury, and 
the President of the United States, and the responses range from 
empty copouts to confused rationalization to the refusal to answer at 
all. Unless you are otherwise pleased to have made a gift of all that 
money to the IRS over the years, you have been financially raped! 

Perhaps you are, as I was for many years, grateful for the blessings 
of living in this great nation and fairly comfortable with paying to 
support the government which was protecting and helping to provide 
our way of life. Unfortunately, it is not that simple. Our "way of 
life" is, in a very real sense, merely the by-product and resource 
base of a hidden, powerful, international agenda belonging to people 
whose names and faces are largely anonymous and whose wealth, power, 
and position have been carefully guarded down through the centuries. 
This is just for openers. Read on. 

2. There is virtually no money in circulation in the United States of 
America. There is only debt paper, Federal Reserve notes, backed by 
nothing and created out of thin air to be loaned AT INTEREST to the 
complicitly criminal United States government and the pathetically 
beguiled citizens of the fifty states. The Federal Reserve is not 
Federal at all. It is a private corporation (look it up in any 
encyclopedia) which is owned totally by member banks, the majority of 
which are FOREIGN owned! The Constitution provides and authorizes a 
reasonable and effective method for Congress to coin money and put it 
into circulation by paying for public works for the general welfare 
of the citizens. While the need to adapt the original Constitutional 
money system to a modern electronic era is certainly open to 
discussion, the results of the conspiracy of the Federal Reserve are 
apparent and about to come crashing down upon our heads. The idea of 
allowing a group of predominantly foreign bankers to create our money 
for us out of nothing and then charge us interest for the use of it 
should get your attention. If it doesn't, you have my permission to 
stop reading and go back to watching television or filling out the 
application for your next credit card. 

Volumes have been written on this subject and you should look into 
them, but let me summarize them as follows: 

a) The international bankers who own the Federal Reserve have become 
wealthy and powerful to a degree beyond anything the Emperor of Rome 
ever dreamed of and to a degree which, if you care about the future 
of your children and grandchildren, should scare you to death. 

b) The average American home is mortgaged to the hilt and declining 
in real market value. 

c) The average American family has multiple credit cards charged to 
the maximum, and as long as the minimum payment is made each month, 
new cards are gleefully provided by the banks. Americans are now 
charging groceries. 

d) The United States government is blatantly lying about its true 
levels of debt, the significance of that debt, most importantly, and 
who owns the debt. The federal government is, for all intents and 
purposes, insolvent, in that the true amount of federal debt, 
including so-called off-budget items and entitlements, is arguably 
close to $50,000.00 for each man, woman, and child in the U.S.A. I 
think we can safely agree that the average net worth of an American 
man, woman or child is well below $50,000.00. Hence, we are 
technically a bankrupt nation whose creditors are of the opinion that 
they own every piece of real property in the nation as well as the 
labor of its citizens far into the future. 

At the current rate of growth of the national debt, it will not be 
too many years before the combined gross income of all American 
taxpayers will not be enough to pay the interest on the national debt 
were every penny of it sent to the IRS. Probably long before this 
happens, our creditors (the international bankers) will have to put 
into action plans to take possession of that which they now believe 
they rightfully own (everything, including us). Now as you can 
imagine, they are not stupid enough to believe that process is going 
to go smoothly. Some of us have already been awakened, and many more 
will be as things begin to collapse. 

3. Power in the world resides not in governments (much less 
citizens), but in the previously alluded to group of families and 
secret organizations who have seized and ruthlessly guarded their 
power down through many centuries. These people view the rest of 
humanity as so much cattle -- or "useless eaters". These families 
have wielded power over centuries by orchestrating wars, famines, 
civil unrest and the propping up and throwing down of governments to 
suit their interests. Sadly, these "elite" are quite right in some of 
their operative assumptions. The masses have, for various reasons 
including the deliberate manipulations of the "elite", come to be 
largely dependent, ignorant, soft and lazy. It can be argued that 
they deserve what is happening to them. Volumes are written on all 
sides of this subject, but the bottom line of it all for me is that 
the "elite" are uncaring, dishonest, utterly selfish and wicked. They 
represent all that is dark and evil in the creation, and they must be 
opposed and defeated. If even a portion of the material I have 
studied is correct, there is no other conclusion to be reached for 
those who would preserve an atmosphere of caring and liberty for the 
human family. 

4. As was stated in the Grace Commission Report to then President 
Reagen, virtually NONE of the "dollars" collected by the personal 
income tax go to the support and functioning of the government. (The 
government has many sources of revenue, of course, some of which are 
actually legitimate.) Your personal income tax dollars go straight 
into the treasury of the Federal Reserve (check the back of your 
cancelled check which you sent the IRS) -- which is, again, a PRIVATE 
CORPORATION owned and controlled by a relative handful of the richest 
and most powerful families in the world. Your tax dollars go to pay 
the INTEREST ONLY on a federal debt which was unnecessary from the 
start and which should best be described as a flimflam and a fraud. 
It was set up as such, and has continued to be recognized as such all 
along by those "in the know". That "highly respected economists" 
continue to put forth elaborate (and incoherent) explanations for the 
necessity and workability of such concepts as "elastic money supply", 
central banking, and fractional reserve banking is simply a tribute 
to the work of institutions of social engineering and brainwashing 
such as Tavistock, Brookings Institute, and Stanford Research. 

Given that a) there is no law requiring you to pay income tax and b) 
the income taxes that are being paid are being fraudulenty 
expropriated into the pockets of international gangsters 
(read "bankers"), it follows that c) YOUR WHOLE NOTION OF SOCIAL, 
ECONOMIC, AND POLITICAL REALITY IS A LIE! And a search for truth will 
prove to be a dangerous thing, because an honest attempt to disprove 
what you have been reading will lead you to the realization that you 
only pay income taxes for one reason -- and one reason only: FEAR. 

Herein lie the discovery, the shame, the outrage, and the need for 
commitment. You have been had because you were too fat, dumb, and 
happy to pay attention to the abundant clues. You made sure you and 
your family got as big a piece of the pie as you could, and then 
closed your eyes to what the baker might be doing to the rest of the 
human family. Well, I have news for you. What the baker has been 
doing to the rest of the human family may very well be done to YOU in 
the relatively near future, and, I guarantee you, will be done to 
your children and their children in the next decade or two. 

5. In his book Behold a Pale Horse, William Cooper powerfully 
explains that whether information is true or false or whether you 
believe it or not makes absolutely no difference. If the people with 
the power believe it, then you WILL BE AFFECTED by what they decide 
to do. To deny this reality is a foolhardy abdication of 
responsibility -- which YOU may appear to get away with, but from 
which your children will not be spared. 

Again, as related by William Cooper, sometime after World War II 
the "elite" became convinced (and they may be correct) that, the 
overpopulation/pollution problems had upgraded from a mere nuisance 
to a imminent calamity. As a result, there has been over the last 
three or four decades a direct conspiracy to depopulate the so-called 
Third World and to de-industrialize the Western World. There are, of 
course, many conflicting interests to be dealt with, and the advent 
of high technology has both helped and hindered the conspirators. 
Nonetheless, the clues and evidence of both the existence and 
successes of this effort are abundantly plain in their ugliness and 
horror. 

The tools in the arsenal of the "elite" have evolved right along with 
technology, but their methods have not basically changed over the 
centuries. Everything they do is based upon ruthless self-interest, 
unabashed deception, and utter disdain for the lives and well-being 
of the rest of the human family. To accurately comprehend the thought 
processes of the "elite", it is necessary to grasp their view of "the 
rest of humanity" as literally so much cattle. The masses are seen as 
incapable of utilizing the truth even if they were given it, and fit 
only to be manipulated to suit the fancy and pleasure of the "elite". 

The sophisticated seem to like the term "social engineering". The 
social engineering of the "elite" includes such devices as wars, 
famines, the intentional spread of disease, virtually total control 
and manipulation of ALL governments of the earth, the control of 
information (education, publishing, entertainment, and newsi.e., a 
monopoly on brainwashing), and the complete infiltration and 
compromising of the most socially and economically powerful 
institutions, such as law, commerce and banking, medicine, and 
religion. A careful study of public records reveals the not too 
surprising fact that ownerships and board of directorships of the 
vast majority of Corporate America are shared by a frightening and 
very incestuous network of families, cronies, "brothers" of secret 
societies, and people who are known to virtually own and control 
other members of "the group". Remember, if you can control something, 
what does it matter if someone else's name is on the ownership 
papers? 

The systematic destruction of the industry and economy of the United 
States of America is currently a high priority for the "elite". 
Thanks to the greed, apathy, and stupidity of American citizens, the 
deed is nearly done. Without caring to debate the moral dilemma as to 
whether the American mindset is a product of the social engineering 
of the "elite", I would simply observe that our self-proclaimed 
enlightened, educated and "successful" upper middle class should 
share greatly in the responsibility for the pending suffering and 
deaths of countless poor souls who might have been spared and helped 
toward a more decent life. Though made into a tired cliche, it 
remains a fact that only a sobering up from our blinding 
materialistic orgy can make available the human resources needed to 
save and reclaim the liberty and dignity of a way of life which has 
always held the seeds of greatness and goodness. 

If you doubt what you are reading because you never heard about it in 
school or on television, or because there isn't a book about it on 
the "best-seller list", you need to carefully re-read the previous 
two paragraphs. Then you need to search and study, as I have, to try 
to prove this wrong -- only to find that it is, in fact, a reality. I 
am fully aware how paranoid this sounds. Nonetheless, I firmly 
believe that almost all public "reality" (that which comes from 
beyond your immediate world of family, friends, and neightbors) is 
permeated with dishonesty and driven by an agenda belonging to 
the "elite" and the "would-be elite". 

It cannot be overemphasized that virtually all sources of public 
information (from school textbooks to the evening news) are owned or 
controlled by the "elite". If you think you know what is going on 
because you read "Newsweek", watch "60 Minutes", or "Larry King", 
think again. So you have an advanced degree in economics, law, or 
political science? Sorry. You're all the worse off. Who do you think 
largely controlled the writing and, more importantly, the selection 
of your textbooks? Your brainwashing has simply been more lengthy and 
more sopisticated. In addition, you now have a massive ego problem 
which combines the arrogance of the "educated" with the 
insufferability of appearing to be just as duped as the "common man". 

The "informing" and "educating" of the masses has purposely created 
within us an attention span which exceeds the thirty 
second "soundbite" only with the greatest of difficulty. While it may 
be merely a reality of the Age of Specialization, think about the 
significance of the following: SOMEONE ELSE prepares, packages, and 
delivers to us the house we live in, the car we drive, the clothes we 
wear, the food we eat, the music we listen to, the entertainment we 
watch, and the information to which we react or not. With the 
exception of our "job", virtually our entire reality is prepared, 
packaged and delivered to us FOR OUR CONSUMPTION. We do not truly 
create or even participate in the bulk of what we consider our 
reality. Further, we have virtually no way to even verify reality 
except through the avenues provided us by the very people who 
created, packaged and delivered it to us in the first place. 

As for our jobs, the remaining facet of our reality over which we may 
have some control, it has been widely observed that jobs in the 
industrialized world continue to become more and more specialized, 
isolated, unfulfilling, and, in wide sectors of the economy, more 
unskilled and lower paying. Even in the professions, there is an 
increasing feeling of impotence, the result of faceless, bureaucratic 
controls, pressures, and social "issues" so loudly trumpeted by the 
media. Our abilities and opportunities to think clearly and 
profoundly and to act decisively and courageously continue to be 
emasculated. 

"News" is all an elaborately orchestrated play, ESPECIALLY the 
controversy -- the juicy stuff which really makes you feel that 
they're on to something. If you regularly partake of the media, you 
are automatically entered in the "Red Herring Derby". When they get 
you all worked up over one of their "controversial issues", you are 
hooked up (preoccupied) with one of their pet red herrings. Those 
issues are created or managed so that they, generally, do not 
interfere with the primary agenda of the "elite", no matter which way 
the issue goes. Could the world ACTUALLY BE so overrun by evil? Would 
not the requisite cornerstone for such a condition be the people's 
disposition to deny the possibility? Is it not POSSIBLE that the 
current situation exists, in fact, largely because we "good" people 
have overestimated our goodness, our principles, our courage? 

6. I can understand that this document might be inadequate to grab 
the attention of individuals who simply do not possess corroborating 
experience or information. I have some empathy for those who cannot 
deal with the fear, pain, and insecurity brought on by certain 
probabilities. However, the principal reason that the contents of 
this document may fall on deaf ears is the gut-churning, heart-
wrenching, head-splitting FACT that pleasure and material comfort 
have addicted and blinded the reader. 

May I remind you that many of your ancestors left their women and 
children to fend for themselves while they went to fight and die for 
the cause of liberty. Most of us have been so miseducated and 
brainwashed over the last century, that the previous sentence really 
just doesn't mean much. The Patriots who launched the American Dream 
over two hundred years ago would today be viewed as crackpots and 
radicals. 

I believe the Republic of the United States of America could only be 
established in the first place because of the presence of sufficient 
individuals of character who were prepared to stand and die at any 
moment for principles and moral ideals which resonated in their 
souls. These individuals were far more concerned with losing their 
souls than losing their lives. Furthermore, many of them understood 
full well that "losing one's soul" involves no more than failing to 
heed that which resonates in the soul, and having "lost one's soul" 
is when it finally just stops resonating. 

How much resonating could possibly be going on in the souls of 
American citizens who ignore, condone, or even enthusiastically 
support the monstrous evil conducted and abetted throughout the world 
by the U.S. government. How much resonating could exist in the souls 
of people who will rationalize in high gear to come up with reasons 
why certainly THEY could not be expected to take a stand against the 
likes of the I.R.S., the F.B.I., or the United States Federal Courts, 
especially over such issues as are raised in this document. 

Imagine, if you will, that some superior power disagreed with the 
United States invasion of Grenada, and, in order to convince the U.S. 
to pull out, decided to bomb YOUR city. Let us say that MEMBERS OF 
YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY WERE KILLED in the bombing (I beg you to take a 
moment right now and let that chilling possibility really soak in.). 
Suppose you were to discover that the bombs that killed your loved 
ones were built in the U.S.A. (perhaps in your own city -- perhaps 
where you work), and that the bombs were purchased by the superior 
power using "foreign aid" moneys from the U.S.A. You then further 
learn that the foreign aid "moneys" were borrowed from the Federal 
Reserve who created said "moneys" out of thin air, and that you, the 
U.S. taxpayer, owe not only the principal but interest on the "loan". 
As if this isn't enough, you subsequently learn to your horror that 
the governments of both the superior power and the U.S.A. have merely 
been carrying out the foreign policy dictates of the men who own and 
control the Federal Reserve -- the very men, in fact, who hand picked 
the officials of both governments in the first place. 

At this point, would you worry about taking a stand because you might 
lose your Social Security benefits? Your job? Your house? Your 
respectability? Would you adopt the religious stance that "these are 
the last days and this is all just the inevitable fulfilling of 
prophecy"? I suspect not. And I rather suspect that nothing would 
stand in the way of your rage and your resolute purpose to avenge the 
death of your beloved family members on the evil men who had 
perpetrated the heinous deed. 

How different the reaction when the dead family members belong to 
people of different color skins in far off places - and the whole 
heinous act is sanitized for your viewing pleasure on CNN! But then, 
of course, those people should have made THEIR government behave 
itself. What a nerve they had to make us worry about gasoline prices, 
and how audacious of them to try to repossess land stolen from them 
by our brothers the British who wanted to set up a puppet monarchy to 
front for their oil interests (Yes. The same gang that owns the 
Federal Reserve.). 

The American economic engine of the past two hundred years, combined 
with the Rip Van Winkle act of the American soul and the brilliantly 
evil conspiracy of the "elite", has turned us into a nation of 
mercenary whores whose labors have supported unspeakable evil and 
whose price has been and continues to be pleasure and material 
prosperity. God help us! We are ripe for destruction! 

7. Finally, the following tidbits are offered for you to embrace or 
disprove: 

a) The success of the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia in 1917 was 
ensured by financing direct from New York capitalists. The 
communist/capitalist, East/West confrontation was always and 
continues to be an elaborate charade carried on for multiple reasons 
not the least of which has been the unimaginable enrichment of 
weapons industries of the "elite". This is not to say there was never 
any risk of a nuclear holocaust, simply that the "elite" managed the 
risks to within what they considered acceptable levels, given the 
available rewards. 

b) Churchill ordered Roosevelt to enter World War II, and together 
they orchestrated the causes of and facilitated the carrying out of 
the attack on Pearl Harbor. Roosevelt was warned of the attack three 
days before it occurred. This is well documented, and gives one a 
small insight into the incredibly cynical and heinous mindset of 
the "elite". 

c) Hitler was, in fact, originally bankrolled into power by British 
financial interests. It has been well documented that the munitions 
factories on BOTH sides of World War II were either owned outright or 
financed by the same families. Weapons factories in Germany were 
routinely avoided in bombing raids. Whoever was "calling the shots" 
seemed to prefer to bomb the worker housing and other civilian 
targets. (In case it hasn't occurred to you, these families who owned 
the munitions factories also happen to own the private corporation 
called the Federal Reserve which is winding up with all your tax 
money. Is it starting to chafe a little?) 

d) So much has been made of Viet Nam, that people are bored with the 
subject, yet one of the primary reasons for the war had to do with 
drugs. It is a fact that the United States government (the "War on 
Drugs" notwithstanding) has been heavily involved in every aspect of 
drug trade for many years, and the Golden Triangle in Southeast Asia 
was not going to be disrupted without a sizable fuss on the part of 
good ole' Uncle Sam. The prolonged "conflict" (read "war, loss of 
life, destruction of a Third World country") provided a ripe 
opportunity for massive profits in the arms and transportation 
industries, as well as a perfect laboratory environment for all sorts 
of human engineering projects. The icing on the cake of Viet Nam was 
that it became the perfect tool for the demoralization and 
fractionalizing of the citizenry of the United States of America in 
preparation for the sabotaging of the American engine. 

Drug money is still a major factor in "U.S. foreign policy". Where do 
you think much of the money for covert C.I.A. and OTHER secret 
government operations comes from? Iran/Contra is a classic example of 
this along with other operations which either Congress refuses to 
fund or which must be kept secret from the rest of the government. 

A large portion of the fortunes of the British "elite" was obtained 
in the opium markets of the Orient. All sorts of wars, and 
unspeakable suffering has been brought upon the human race directly 
out of the desire of the "elite" to maintain, control, and protect 
this fabulously lucrative trade in drugs. It bears repeating that 
these are the same people who created the Federal Reserve, who create 
our money for us out of thin air and charge us interest on it (which 
interest can only be paid through the creation of yet more 
nonexistent, interest-bearing money), and into whose account all of 
your personal income tax dollars are directly deposited. 

e) The Kennedy assassination has been made into an American 
obsession, a money-making media circus. That the simplistic, 
transparent, and utterly moronic Warren Commission Report is still 
defended as the truth, is merely an ongoing litmus test on the 
American frame of mind -- which can only be viewed as pathetic. Who 
killed JFK is as relevant as who killed Cock Robin. Even the most 
politically naive are beginning to understand that elected political 
officials above the level of dog catcher are "put up" to run for 
office. And, generally, both sides of the race are covered so that 
who wins only dictates small changes in the nature of the political 
charade. The people who put Nixon and Kennedy up for election and 
tolerated Kennedy's victory decided that Kennedy had to be taken out. 
WHY? That is the question! Answer that question and you will be well 
on your way to an intimate knowledge of the LIE, who is behind it, 
and what you must do to at least give your children a fighting chance 
against this force. 

f) The web of fraud, deception, and unlawful control, in which the 
American people have allowed themselves to be ensnared, is as 
magnificent and awe-inspiring as the work of any large spider you may 
have viewed on a dew-covered, Fall morning. How could such an ugly 
little creature build such a beautiful, delicate structure and, with 
it, entrap the FREE and beautiful butterfly? 

How, indeed, could we lose our knowledge of the meaning of Liberty 
and surrender our God-given, unalienable rights in exchange 
for "social" security? We have become a nation of wimps, preoccupied 
with our "emotional problems", coveting our pleasures, and terrified 
of losing even the least of our precious material possessions -- 
our "stuff". 

So eager are we to be protected from each other (and from ourselves) 
that we allow the government to create laws and "statutes" the very 
nature of which would have been utterly repugnant to our forefathers. 
We complain about the bureaucracy, yet, when pressed on the specific 
issues, confess that we feel safer if the government requires 
licenses of all our fellow citizens to supposedly ensure that they 
will run their businesses "properly", build things "right", 
drive "safely", etc., etc. 

Yet the Constitutional protections, miraculously, are still in tact 
and available to us, if we would but claim them. Were you aware that, 
in many states, there is no lawful basis for the requirement to 
obtain a driver's license or to license your automobile? In fact, if 
you investigate the definitions in relevant federal statutes, you 
will find that the definition of "driver" refers only to "persons" 
operating a motor vehicle for business purposes. A passenger is 
a "person" whose transportation has been paid for, and a vehicle is a 
conveyance being used for a commercial purpose. You can have even 
more fun looking up "person". The legal verbiage in most state code 
books is, in my opinion, wholy inadequate to require any citizen, 
travelling in his or her privately owned automobile, to possess a 
license to do so. Yet honest, courageous people who point out these 
facts in court and claim their freedom to travel are routinely fined 
and/or jailed. Whether or not you like the idea of the "driver's 
license" is not the point. The point is that we have long since 
descended into unabashedly dishonest government -- what might be best 
described as legislative and bureaucratic totalitarianism. This has 
not come about through human error or mistakes. The spider does not 
weave a web by mistake, and the butterfly flies into it primarily 
because it is not paying enough attention to where it is flying. 

g) If the point about the "driver's license" in the previous section 
seemed trivial or even "socially dangerous" to you, that is because 
you (like myself) are a product of an American education 
establishment which has systematically miseducated the nation's 
youth, purposely twisting, destroying, and deleting the truth about 
the nature of Liberty, the American Republic, and the protection of 
the Constitution. 

If you will look up the Communist Manifesto in any good encyclopedia, 
and study it thoroughly (it is quite short), you should be impressed 
with how many of its ten planks are either law or de facto public 
policy in the U.S.A. Even more sad for the tattered cause of Liberty, 
is the possibility that you may actually feel the Communist Manifesto 
sounds pretty good, and feel that the "right wing" elements only 
deplore Communism because it hampers their greedy, capitalistic 
opportunities. This leads to the need for you to gain an 
understanding of the principles of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis. 
I must not expand this document to the extent that would be needed to 
deal with those principles, but, suffice to say, the "elite" deal at 
the level of synthesis. Both the thesis and the antithesis are in the 
realm of the Emperor's Clothes and the "Red Herring Derby". 

h) Has it ever occurred to you to question why the three major news 
networks all report virtually the same stories AND point of view 
night after night after night? Is your intellect flattered by 
the "expanded" reports of those VERY SAME STORIES on public 
television? Did you wonder why ONLY CNN was allowed to "report" on 
the Persian Gulf war? Have you never wondered why you are treated to 
such a steady diet of news about murder, rape, plane crashes, and 
other negativity which YOU can do nothing about? The news, friends, 
is worse than a lie. It is a calculated mixture of facts, lies, and 
distortions, creating a hypnotic fantasy which controls the masses as 
surely as if they had electrodes planted in their brains. The media 
lulls us to sleep or jolts us into carefully aimed paths of action, 
ACCORDING TO THE AGENDA OF THE "ELITE". I'm sorry. You may scoff at 
the idea. You may dismiss the idea. Nonetheless, unless you are soul-
dead, I would bet that, deep in your heart, you are terrified that it 
may be true. You will never know for sure, however, unless you 
sincerely investigate the path illuminated for you by this document. 

i) You may be wondering why, if there is really such a diabolical 
reality facing the human family, your church leaders are not 
concerned or speaking out. Issues of the type addressed in this 
document are often placed in an elaborate context of religious tenets 
or spiritual values. As a result, urgent realities are often 
rationalized into oblivion. I am only interested in what is true, 
supportive of Liberty, and conducive to human caring. 

As impacting these issues, the following occurs to me. Some leaders 
of small, independent churches have spoken out boldly and 
extensively. Leaders of large, powerful churches have little or 
nothing to say on these subjects, and, if you NEED to believe that 
they are unaware, then you have been snared in the spider's web. 
Churches which desire to be "legitimate and law-abiding" obtain a 
special tax status with the IRS. Shazam!!! Any statement which could 
remotely be construed as not "politically correct" is an open 
invitation to reprisals from virtually anyone in government as well 
as anyone having any influence with the IRS (i.e. the "elite"). 
Persons in high positions with the large and powerful churches know a 
great deal about the "elite". Some of them ARE the "elite". You will 
have to work out your own hang-ups on that subject. It can be very 
painful. 

Even though obvious, it is very difficult to accept the reality that 
evil CAN shroud itself in mountains of good. Correlating my own 
experiences with evidence I have seen, it seems to me that virtually 
all large, powerful organizations (including churches and secret 
organizations such as brotherhoods) are covering up something -- 
ranging from misrepresentations to alliances with evil, to the LIE 
itself. Human consciousness being what it currently is, large, 
powerful organizations tend to be about control, power, and money. 
And if organizing people around otherwise true principles, to keep 
them (pre)occupied doing all sorts of good deeds, serves to keep them 
out of the way of the primary goals of the "elite", so much the 
better. That is hard to accept, isn't it? But it is true, 
nonetheless, and it stems from our human unwillingness to trust that 
which resonates in the soul and take responsibility for choosing what 
to stand for. As long as we continue to look for some outside 
authority to spoon-feed us life's basic issues, the ego-driven among 
us will gladly answer the call and manufacture the most magnificent, 
inspiring organizational structures (wombs) to heal our every 
insecurity. Thus we will continue to be so much cattle in the herd 
driven and guided by the "elite". Remember, the "elite" now believe 
there are too many cattle in the herd. Have you not noticed the 
direction in which the herd is being driven -- over the cliff? 

j) One final point begs introduction which may strike closer to home 
for some of you. From a variety of reasons and impetuses, I have been 
interested in health, diet, and medical issues for many years. 
Although not an authority by any means whatever, I have been exposed 
to vast amounts of information on different sides of many of these 
issues. You should be aware that the "elite", the government, the 
American Medical Association, the Food and Drug Administration, 
virtually all pharmaceutical houses, the American Cancer Society, 
most major corporations in the food production sector, as well as 
many other entities ("institutes", societies, and associations) are 
involved in a Draconian conspiracy to suppress, distort and discredit 
information regarding diet, health, and so-called alternative 
medicine. There is simply no doubt of the conspiracy, although it is 
so complex that it can be more easily viewed as a collection of 
thousands of individual conspiracies of various sizes which just 
happen to support each other with an amazing degree of coincidence. 
What is this all about? The usual, of course -- money, power, and 
ego. What it is about at the higher levels of the "elite" is an 
entirely different matter -- having to do with the driving of the 
herd off the cliff. 

In 1984 my mother died of cancer. Could her cancer have been 
prevented? Yes. Could her cancer have been cured? Most likely. But 
the information which would have given her the choice to prevent or 
cure her disease was and is ruthlessly suppressed and discredited. 
There is only one reason for this, again the money, power, and egos 
jeopardized by an informed public empowered to deal with their health 
issues largely ON THEIR OWN. 

The love of money is, indeed, at the root of evil, and if honesty is 
going to cost someone a LOT of money (much less power and position), 
what do you think the odds are of the truth being willingly let out? 
I am personally acquainted with a nutritional consultant (Ph.D in 
biochemistry and nutritional pharmacology) who had, at last count, 33 
A.I.D.S. patients, 30 of whom no longer show any symptoms of the 
disease. The American Medical Association will not communicate with 
him. No one in the government seems to want to talk to him. The 
Veterans Administration has refused to provide him with medical 
records so that he can authenticate these situations. In fact, there 
is reason to believe they have deliberately "lost" or destroyed 
records in some instances. There are probably hundreds of incidents 
of this nature and many books in print on related issues. Is there 
some bogus misinformation floating around that would discredit those 
promoting alternative viewpoints on diet and medicine? Of course. 
Enough to absolve the Establishment of the conspiracy charges? Not by 
a long shot! 

Health issues are immensely 
complex. "Physical" "mental", "emotional", and "spiritual" may indeed 
be little more than our own crude definitions of aspects of human 
reality, which overlap in ways we have yet to discover. We will, 
however, never have the blessing of truth available to us as long as 
we cannot muster the courage to do battle with those of the LIE who 
would keep it from us. To accept the tyranny of an "elite" which dole 
out medical knowledge only when it is profitable for them to do so is 
to tolerate a state of humiliating vassalage which should be 
repugnant to the heirs of the American Republic. That is the only 
real issue here -truth, Liberty, and caring. 

Well, I guess enough is enough. You may have already dismissed this 
document as the ravings of a deluded, paranoid alarmist. That is what 
I would have likely done five years ago. Hopefully, something 
contained herein is consistent with your own observations or 
suspicions, and you will go on from here. The reading list on the 
last page is only a very tiny portion of the information now 
available. Much of it is hard to find and difficult to study, much 
less absorb. 

Let me be very clear on one point. Any search for truth will involve 
sifting through mountains of misinformation (mistakes), 
disinformation (lies), and noninformation (distractions), in order to 
eventually come upon small pieces of information which then must be 
understood, analyzed, compared and eventually pieced together to 
arrive at a bit of truth. And then, hopefully, that bit of truth can 
be successfully used as a direction finder in the search for the next 
bit. 

There is no doubt in my mind that I am mistaken about some of 
my "facts". My perceptions cannot all be flawless. As a matter of 
fact, I would love to be proved wrong on every count. But, alas, I 
have given some pretty important and powerful people -- people in 
positions of public trust, who should care-- every opportunity to set 
me straight, and, almost without exception, there is silence. That is 
the same silence which has answered the many many thousands of 
similar inquiries which I know have been made. 

No. This scenario herein presented to you is, on the whole, very 
accurate, and I have now discharged my responsibility to make you 
aware of it to the best of my ability. The search for truth is a 
dangerous thing, indeed. The possession of truth, on the other hand, 
can ruin your whole day. If this has ruined your day, I want you to 
know that, although I myself fall just a tad short of Dale Carnegie 
in my positive outlook, some of the most optomistic, caring, 
courageous people I know are totally committed to this battle to 
expose the LIE. Living at a dark time in human history provides the 
maximum opportunity for even the smallest of flames to cast a lot of 
light. I am willing to discuss any of these issues with anyone as 
time will allow, and to refer anyone to sources of help and 
information. If, however, anyone has emotional baggage that cannot be 
shed, or axes to grind, or tender spots which may result in offense 
being taken, please remember that the search for truth is a dangerous 
thing. You embark on it of your own free will. If you really don't 
want answers, then don't ask questions, especially not of people 
whose answers you know could be extremely painful. 

To those of you who have known me in any degree I express thanks for 
the sharing of that which was good between us and sorrow for any hurt 
or negativity that I may have brought you. Thank you for thinking 
enough of me to read this far. 

Someone said once, "If you are bored with your life, find a good 
fight and get in it!" This is a good fight. I am in it. It is 
unlikely I will ever be bored again! 


Postscript
On the eve of April 15, 1996 (of all dates!), as I am converting 
this document to html format for inclusion on my Internet Homepage, I 
have reviewed it again and find a brief postscript in order. Most of 
the views expressed above remain largely unchanged, though augmented 
by another three and one half years of experience and study. I have 
seen first hand, as well as through the experiences of a good many 
friends, that government and law in America are two very cruel 
hoaxes. Law, or the "Justice System" is merely the doll clothes in 
which the rich and powerful dress up their hideous little ruler-doll 
called "democracy". In my opinion, what goes on in the courts has 
precious little to do with truth, justice or law; instead, it has 
everything to do with the implementation of so-called "public 
policy", the protection of "the system", and what amounts to nothing 
more or less than social engineering. While it may be true that the 
courts protect society from murderers, rapists and thieves, many 
would argue that even this is done very poorly. Talk to your fellow 
Americans who have had to defend themselves against abuse and even 
flat-out criminal behavior by the government, and you will find 
stories to make you hair stand on end and your blood boil. 

In areas such as taxation, property rights, the conduct of businesses 
and occupations of common right, and personal freedoms (especially 
dealing with the family), the Constitution for the United States of 
America has been tossed in the trash and utterly supplanted by a 
gestapo-like network of unbelievably powerful bureaucrats, 
political "king-makers", and power brokers. The idea that there is 
any remedy available in the courts is tragically laughable. The 
problems with the courts are widely known and written about, yet the 
American people seem apathetic and powerless to deal with the 
situation. As bad as it is for so many, I see no end to this 
abominable charade, because far too few American people seem willing 
to even know, much less face up to, any of this. As has always been 
the case, there are many who complain about government, about 
business, about labor, or about this or that perceived social evil. 
The bottom line, however, seems to be that the American people have 
really never had it so good materially, and as long as there are 
enough big-screen televisions, microwaves, and popcorn to go around, 
only an extremely tiny fraction of the American people will care at 
all about the tragedies inflicted by government upon their fellow 
Americans or, for matter, ever stand up and do anything that might 
put at risk its next meal, much less its "lifestyle". The idea of 
putting freedom or life itself at risk in opposition to government 
corruption is apparently dismissed by most Americans as "extremist" 
or "crackpot". (My apologies to those serving in the military. For 
the last couple of decades they have been, after all, paid 
volunteers. The overall abuse and misuse of the American military is 
a tragic story in and of itself!) 

I have said it before, and I'll say it again, our Founding Fathers 
would have been viewed as "insane" by most Americans I am familiar 
with today. Currently the bottom line is corrupted by the fact that 
there is simply no interest in principle, and I would like you to let 
your imagination run wild with that pun!
