SIGNING WITHOUT LIABILITY
WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Next time you sign a agreement to have your lawyer re-present you BY ALL MEANS do this "WITHOUT PREJUDICE" before your signature!!!
I hope that everyone realizes that UNCONDITIONAL signature
creates an NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENT. Now it wouldn't if we still were under common
law, but under the current Law Merchant, UCC, an unconditional signature makes
you subject to IMPLIIED liability. As UCC-3-104 says:
§ 3-104. NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENT.
"(a) Except as provided in subsections (c) and (d),
"negotiable instrument" means an unconditional promise or order to
pay a fixed amount of money, with or without interest or other charges
described in the promise or order,..."
“Without Prejudice” UCC 1-207 (308) means “that which is so
clearly stated or distinctly set forth that there is no doubt as to its
meaning.” Negotiable Instrument Law UCC 3-104.2 states that a summons, license,
or draft ‘must’ be signed “unconditionally.”
A reservation of Without Prejudice places a condition on the
agreement which means ‘I do not partake’, the unit is now non-assumpsit. These
units are “unconscionable” at UCC 2-302.
WITHOUT PREJUDICE
"Law phrase. Without abandonment of claim, right,
privilege and without implied admission of liability."
http://thelawdictionary.org/without-prejudice/
So by adding "Without prejudice" before your
signature, you're asserting your right NOT to be liable for anything that WAS
NOT disclosed to you at the time of signing. I.e. that makes your signature
CONDITIONAL, meaning that when they say you're liable to do this, or are
subject to this statute, you can say "I reserved my rights NOT to agree to
anything that was not disclosed, and at the time of signing you DID NOT say
that signing makes me subject to your statute(s)".
Of course they can refuse your application if you sign that
way. And guess what, THAT is a PROOF that rights reservation protects your
rights! And in regard to any past forms that you signed unconditionally, you
can AMEND those, by sending them a note that you're amending your application
form(s) by adding the words "without prejudice" before your
signature.
They might ignore that, but that should reserve your rights.
They also might revoke the benefit that you applied for, since you no longer
are liable to obey the rules that come with that benefit. So ULTIMATELY we have
to start using lawful money such as US coins and pay with other things of value,
because if they revoke our gov't benefits, we need to assert our rights under
EQUITY, and you can't do that if you "pay" for everything with green
paper.
BTW, these rules apply to negotiable instruments:
When there are disputes as to the terms of an instrument,
the following rules govern
1. Handwriting prevails over typewriting and print
2. Typewriting prevails over print
3. Words prevail over numbers
4. Can be postdated, antedated, or undated
Here's an excellent book about using "without prejudice":
http://www.amazon.com/Without-Prejudice-UCC-1-207-Sovereign/dp/1414017359/ref=sr_1_2
And the attached doc below is also a great explanation of
asserting your rights. I just don't agree with the author about the meaning of
the phrase USA, as that was the very name of our Constitutional Republic, first
used in the Declaration of Independence. He's also delusional with his rant
against oaths, claiming that's some religious ceremony. It's not, oaths are
BONDS and they are properly used. For example under common law, complaints are
bonded by swearing under penalty of perjury. So if the guy lies, then he'll be
facing criminal charges. If the swearing was not required then anyone could
MAKE UP lies about you, and so make you waste time and money defending against
his lies.
Here's a part of that doc:
"Let's go back to the Article I Legislative and Article
II Executive Branches to discover the mischief of legalized piracy and
conspiracy upon the innocent People of the land.
This is how it works: We initiate the 'engraft' Interlocking
Directorates by agency fiat of 'unconscionable' contract, license, and
enrollments. The signing at UCC 3-104.1, which if "unconditional", at
UCC 3-104.2 gives agency police power to access your property by executing negotiable
"dishonored" instruments of "promise" per UCC 3-104.3. This
applies to all “persons”, such as, all commercial entities, corporations,
governments, and every other “thing” that legally falls into the description of
“person”, but not the Freeborn People.
All "IMPLIED
POWERS" are "vested" by the Negotiable Instrument Law and
enforced by the Uniform Commercial Code at 3-104 (1) Signing, and (2) Unconditional,
and (3) Promise.
Negotiable
Instruments of the categories of W-2 forms, Marriage Licenses, Driver License, Dog
License, Social Security License (#123-45-6789), etc., etc., presumed to be
voluntary, knowingly, willingly and intentionally signed by the Citizen,
initiate the "implied powers" of the Article I Legislative Branch to
be "engrafted" upon Article II Executive to collect the tax with
"implied" police power, but offers no delict to destroy diversity of
Citizenship. The dolus bogus "contract" initiating Article II
Executive police power, together with Article I Legislative "statutes"
as the other "implied" power creates third party instruments
"presumed" to obligate the parties signed upon any such
"contracts"."
EXHIBIT_020_-_NOTICE_Penumbra_Doctrine_Does_NOT_Apply.doc
BTW, as this is all about negotiable instruments under the
UCC, then even if we don't reserve our rights, we can assert our UCC rights,
i.e. demand that they 1) identify themselves (by name and DOB of the
person/agency), and 2) produce proof of their authority, and of their Holder in
Due Course status.
I.e. every time that an agent of some muni corporation
demands payment or performance, it might be considered a PRESENTMENT under UCC
3-501.

SOCIAL SECURITY SCAM...
Well, Well, Well, it looks like someone thoroughly checked this out! I was wondering who was going to do research into President Obama's Social Security number.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jean Paul Luwig or Barack Hussein Obama?
SSN#042-68-4425
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jean Paul Luwig or Barack Hussein Obama?
SSN#042-68-4425
WOW, read this, it's short - very interesting.
An intensive 6-year investigation has revealed the identity of the man whose Social Security Number (SSN) is being used by President Obama.
Jean Paul Ludwig, who was born in France in 1890, immigrated to the United States in 1924, and was assigned SSN 042-68-4425 (President Obama's current SSN) rec'd on or about March 1977.
Mr. Ludwig lived most of his adult life in Connecti cut . Because of that, his SSN begins with the digits 042, which are among only a select few reserved for Connecticut residents.
Barack H. Obama never lived or worked in that state! Therefore, there is no reason on earth for his SSN to start with the digits 042. None whatsoever!
Now comes the best pa rt! J. P. Ludwig spent the final months of his life in Hawaii, where he died.
Conveniently, Obama 's grandmother, Madelyn Payne Dunham,worked part-time in the Probate Office in the Honolulu Hawaii Courthouse, and therefore had access to the SSNs of deceased individuals.
Conveniently, Obama 's grandmother, Madelyn Payne Dunham,worked part-time in the Probate Office in the Honolulu Hawaii Courthouse, and therefore had access to the SSNs of deceased individuals.
The Social Security Administration was never informed of Ludwig's death, and because he never received Social Security benefits there were no benefits to stop and therefore, no questions were ever raised. The suspicion, of course, is that Dunham, knowing her grandson was not a U.S. Citizen, either because he was born in Kenya, or became a c itizen of Indonesia upon his adoption by Lolo Soetoro, simply scoured the probate records, until she found someone, who died who was not receiving Social Security benefits, and selected Mr. Ludwig’s Connecticut SSN for her grandson Barry Obama.
Just wait until the head Birther himself, Donald Trump, gets past the birth certificate and onto the issue of Barry O 's use< b> of a stolen SSN. You will see leftist heads exploding, because they will have no way of defending Obama.
------------------------------ ------------------------------ ------------------------------ -----
Although many Americans do not understand the meaning of the term "natural born", there are few who do not understand that if you are using someone else 's SSN it is a clear indication of fraud, and a federal offense. Let 's all get this information out to everybody on our mailing lists. If the voters of this great nation can succeed in bringing this lying, deceitful, cheating, corrupt, impostor to justice it will be the biggest and best news in decades for our country and the world

ECONOMIC COLLAPSE IN 6-MONTHS?
LATEST PROMISE PREDICTION WE ARE IN FOR 100-TRILLION ECONOMIC COLLAPSE IN 6-MONTHS. 3 cents on the dollar production.
MISERY INDEX
MISERY INDEX
WHAT IS THE MISERY INDEX?
THE MISERY INDEX IS AN ECONOMIC INDICATOR DESIGNED TO HELP DETERMINE HOW THE AVERAGE CITIZEN IS DOING ECONOMICALLY AND IT IS CALCULATED BY SIMPLY ADDING THE INFLATION RATE TO THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE.
SINCE BOTH HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT AND HIGH INFLATION ARE MAJOR FACTORS TO THE AVERAGE WAGE EARNER, IT’S A QUICK AND DIRTY METRIC TO GAUGE THE HEALTH OF THE ECONOMY BECAUSE AS INFLATION RISES THE COST OF LIVING INCREASES AND AS UNEMPLOYMENT RISES MORE PEOPLE CROSS THE ECONOMIC LINE INTO POVERTY.
UNFORTUNATELY, ALTHOUGH DATA FOR THE ANNUAL INFLATION RATE IS AVAILABLE BACK TO 1914 (THE CPI INDEX BEGAN IN 1913) DATA FOR THE MISERY INDEX IS ONLY AVAILABLE BACK TO 1948 DUE TO THE LACK OF UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS PRIOR TO 1948.
THE ORIGINAL MISERY INDEX WAS CREATED BY ECONOMIST ARTHUR OKUN DURING THE JOHNSON ADMINISTRATION IN THE 1960’S, NOT BY ROBERT BARRO AS SOME PEOPLE MISTAKENLY BELIEVE. BARRO CREATED THE “BARRO MISERY INDEX” (BMI) IN 1999, WHICH ALSO INCLUDES INTEREST RATES AND GDP TREND INTO THE MIX.
GROWTH IN GDP REDUCES THE MISERY.
INTERESTINGLY, WHEN THE ORIGINAL MISERY INDEX WAS CONCEIVED BY OKUN IT WAS ACTUALLY QUITE LOW BY RECENT STANDARDS.
MISERY INDEX IN 2013:
IN 2013 THE MISERY INDEX WAS STILL IN THE MODERATELY MISERABLE RANGE . IT WAS SLIGHTLY BELOW THE POSITION AT THE END OF THE BUSH 1 TERM AND SIMILAR TO THE MIDDLE OF BOTH OF BUSH 2 TERMS. THE MISERY INDEX BEGAN THE YEAR AT 9.49% AND FINISHED THE YEAR AT 8.20%. ALTHOUGH GOVERNMENT NUMBERS INDICATE THAT BOTH UNEMPLOYMENT AND INFLATION ARE FALLING NON-GOVERNMENT NUMBERS INDICATE BOTH INFLATION AND UNEMPLOYMENT ARE HIGHER THAN REPORTED BY THE GOVERNMENT.
THE MISERY INDEX AND POLITICS
HISTORICALLY, A HIGH (OR CLIMBING) MISERY INDEX HAS BEEN A POLITICAL FOOTBALL RESULTING IN A CHANGE OF PRESIDENTS WHILE A LOW (OR FALLING) MISERY INDEX RESULTED IN REELECTION.
CARTER’S MISERY INDEX PEAKED AT 21.98% IN JUNE OF 1980. HIS MISERY INDEX WAS STILL ABOVE 20% COME NOVEMBER 1980, SO REAGAN (R) WAS ABLE TO USE CARTER’S OWN WORDS AND THE MISERY INDEX AGAINST HIM IN THE FOLLOWING ELECTION AND MAKE CARTER A RARE ONE-TERM PRESIDENT.
IN EFFECT THE CRASHING STOCK MARKET LED EVERYONE TO FEEL POORER (AND MOST WERE POORER AS THE VALUE OF THEIR HOUSE AND ANY INVESTMENTS HAD DECLINED PRECIPITOUSLY) THUS THE MARKET TRUMPED THE MISERY INDEX ITSELF. SO THE SOCIAL MOOD WAS READY FOR A CHANGE IN POLITICAL PARTIES. WORLDWIDE THIS SAME PHENOMENON APPEARS TO HOLD AS WELL, THIS SEEMS TO BE CONFIRMED BY THE ELECTIONS IN BOTH FRANCE AND GREECE WHERE THEIR ECONOMIES WERE FALTERING AND THE SEATED PRESIDENTS WERE BOTH VOTED OUT.
IN THE MOST RECENT 2012 ELECTION APPARENTLY OBAMA WAS SEEN AS PRESIDING OVER A FALLING MISERY INDEX AND SO HE WAS REELECTED. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON HOW SOCIAL MOOD AFFECTS POLITICS AND THE ECONOMY SEE: SOCIAL MOOD RESOURCES AT YOUR FINGERTIPS.
SINCE INDIVIDUAL STATES’ POLITICAL PARTIES HAVE A MORE DIRECT INFLUENCE ON THEIR ECONOMICS… SEE UNEMPLOYMENT RATES BY STATE TO SEE WHICH POLITICAL PARTY HAS HAD THE BEST EFFECT ON EACH STATE’S UNEMPLOYMENT RATE.
IF YOU COUNT IN THE INCREASE IN POPULATION OVER THAT TIME PERIOD, THE SITUATION IS ACTUALLY GETTING WORSE.
IN APRIL 2013 THE OFFICIAL EMPLOYMENT NUMBER WAS 135.494 MILLION. THERE IS ALSO SOME EVIDENCE THAT THE NET GAIN IN EMPLOYMENT CAME FROM EMPLOYERS REDUCING HOURS FOR PART-TIME WORKERS AND HIRING OTHERS TO MAKE UP THE HOURS. SEE: UNEMPLOYMENT, PART-TIME WORKERS AND OBAMACAREACCORDING TO THE U.S. BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS EMPLOYMENT NUMBERS, IN NOVEMBER 2011 THERE WERE 133.172 MILLION EMPLOYED. IN JUNE 2012 THERE WERE 134.057 MILLION EMPLOYED AND IN SEPTEMBER 2012 THERE WERE 133.797 MILLION EMPLOYED. BUT THE “ADJUSTED” UNEMPLOYMENT RATE WENT FROM 8.7% IN NOVEMBER 2011 TO 7.8% IN SEPTEMBER 2012.
IN NOVEMBER 2012 THE TOTAL EMPLOYED WAS 135.069 MILLION AND THE ADJUSTED UNEMPLOYMENT RATE WAS 7.7%. ACCORDING TO THE BLS THE CIVILIAN NONINSTITUTIONAL POPULATION INCREASED BY 3.7 MILLION OVER THE LAST YEAR. SO POPULATION IS UP 3.7 MILLION, AND EMPLOYMENT IS UP ONLY 1.9 MILLION BUT SOMEHOW UNEMPLOYMENT IS DOWN? HOW CAN THE POPULATION INCREASE, THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE EMPLOYED INCREASED BY A SMALLER AMOUNT, BUT UNEMPLOYMENT STILL FALLS BY 1%? IT SHOULDN’T WORK THAT WAY! RECENTLY THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS ADJUSTED THE “UNADJUSTED” EMPLOYMENT NUMBERS FROM JULY 1991 FORWARD.
SEE IS THE GOVERNMENT FUDGING UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS? FOR MORE INFORMATION. SEE: CURRENT U.S. EMPLOYMENT DATA.
THE MISERY INDEX IS DEFINED AS, A MEASURE OF THE ECONOMIC WELL-BEING OF THE COUNTRY, WHICH IS CALCULATED BY TAKING ADDING THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE AND THE INFLATION RATE.
