Did you know that your birth certificate is really a bank note?

[humanearth]

Which means you, the citizen are what is known in the stock market as a commodity.

So if you have a birth certificate, you are really a slave to the government.

None of us are truly free

[Anonymous]

That is nonsense.
Your birth certificate is issued by and maintained by your State goverment as part of their records. Proving you were born there, it is not transferable, nor redeemable for anything.

Thus failing the qualifications of a bank-note.

In fact you will probably have to pay money if you want a new copy.

Citizens can be viewed as a commodity by economist only in that nothing happens without human labor and ingenuity and as such businesses like the economy they make up are entirely depended upon the people they can draw from to do said work.

I believe the point he is making is that our governments are turning their people into a measurable commodity used to enrich countries

[MementoMori777]

You just figured that one out? You thought all these documents were just for certification, clearly they are marking us like farm animals, fingerprints, DNA, it's all in their system.

[MementoMori777]

It's why I don't want my marriage to be marked on their shit as well, anything I can take from them, I will

It gets even worse when you realize that our money has been fake since 1913 and that the rest of the world is about to drop the USD entirely which will make it completely worthless.

You Americans never cease to amaze.
You have a federal government that built a first world country on an immense land, it's not without flaws but it beats the alternative which is a pour country ruled and ripped apart by warlords and cartels and separatist groups. So what the government tracks the subjects of it's empire? It's a small price to pay for having a roof, electricity, internet, a car with access to roads, education, medicine, peacekeeping. All of those things you take for granted are things some places desperately ask for.

The price of freedom is chaos
The price of peace is order.

Peace and freedom cannot coexist anymore than order and chaos

[NostalgiaSenpi]

This is tied to the falsehood that when the United States went off the gold standard in 1933, the federal government allegedly went bankrupt. Thanks to the Federal Reserve, the government converted its citizens into capital value by publicly trading the birth certificates of U. S. citizens, the claim goes. This is not true.

Ah government. The leading cause of anarchists, maybe... The leading cause of people hating government.

[exitseven]

damn, I never knew that, no wonder I feel like all my rights have been taken away.

[Likes2drive]

We are all just a name and a number to the government and at our job

[Guardian45]

My "bank note" is printed on "uncounterfeitable" plastic!

[Jersey2]

So move to an uninhabited island or a country that suits you. I’ll stay thanks.

You're only a slave with your own consent!!!
