Are We Really Free? Maybe It's Time For A Personal Declaration Of Independence https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-07-06/are-we-really-free-maybe-its-time-... https://www.theorganicprepper.com/personal-declaration-of-independence/

You never own your home outright, even when the mortgage is paid off...

The same thing with your car...

On a regular basis, you must pay a fee and ask the government for permission to do any number of things...

Permits and licenses are big revenue generators from start to finish – and if you proceed without asking permission, they will extort more money from you in the form of fines...

There are places in our nation where you can’t use your property the way you want...

... The bottom line is, some places in the United States are freer than others, but we’re all still serfs paying fealty to lords. ...

There's much more in this article, not particularly new to folks round here, but may be useful for those who have at least one ball or one ovary and may possibly be inclined to grow a second, to put some elbow grease into their own lives, or rather into their own freedom. It is actions, hopefully by millions (and not millions of non acting apathetic sheeple) which may change the world towards freedom and away from the psychotic despotism we are seeing so much of these last few years/ decades. Create your world, A taster of some additional headers from the above article: … They have most people convinced that they must follow the food pyramid, the vaccine schedule, and the rules that force us to have licenses for every darned thing we do. We must pay for and be granted permission to feed ourselves, transport ourselves, build shelters for ourselves, unite in matrimony, and even to own pets. … We’re ruled by fear and manipulation. … You can withdraw your consent. When’s the last time you read – actually read – the Declaration of Independence? Please allow me to share an excerpt. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. … You have a natural human right to be free. … Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. You have a Constitutionally protected right to be free. If you aren’t free, then revolution is your motherlovin’ duty. This isn’t about guns blazing, militias mobilizing, and guerrilla warfare. It’s about small personal acts of independence. The way you lead your life every single day can be a personal Declaration of Independence. By refusing to concede your natural rights, quietly and resolutely, you are performing a much-needed act of revolution. Anyone can be part of this revolution. … You can’t just sit there and complain unless you really are just another armchair Rambo. … Random Acts of Revolution … Random Acts of Revolution … Question absolutely everything you hear on the news … Get out of the banking system … Educate others … Grow your own food or buy local … Refuse to comply … Embrace your right to bear arms … Don’t be in debt … Be prepared for disaster … Be involved in your children’s education … Know that any freedom you give up, you will never get back … Maintain your privacy … Stop making excuses for collaborators Get out there and be the squeaky wheel. ...
