Michael Badnarik's Constitution Class 4 of 43

In the early eighties Michael Badnarik started his career as a computer programmer at an Illinois nuclear power plant. For the past twenty years he has continued this professional course, but during this time he became interested and frustrated with politics. As a result, in 1983 Badnarik began studying the IRS and then the constitution. He had since condensed his 18 years of research into a short eight hour course that he would teach in a lecture format. It included some of the fundamentals on our rights and the foundations of our republic. A video recording of one of the classes has been made and you can watch it here..

No.

The "military" and the "militia" are two totally different things.

Militia = Armed CITIZENS.

Military = Satnding Armies. (unconstitutional)

Our 2nd Amendment is so we can KILL government people who usurp power and become tyrants.

This man is a genius. Thank you for posting the recording.

@marionmedic true point, i would also like to add that un-organized militia is of the people. Organized militia became as what we call the National Guard. But yes we have a unconstitutional standing Army. good knowledge on militias though.

@paris466 That is in essence correct. You get to use it, pass it to others for compension, but the gov can take it if you do not pay the rent (tax). You can sell it if there is no easement or federal paperwork saying otherwise like when they tell you the next owner must be the gov, conservation laws, or easements for this and that. The gov can force you to sell to them for a price they decide. They can also tell you what you can and cannot do with it, zoning and court orders against you, etc

What is a "low deal time deal"?

[paris466]

If you have any doubts as to who owns the land, try not paying your yearly "rent" (in the form of property taxes) for a couple of years and you'll see who owns "your" land.

Here's a hint: it ain't you.

we are all completely brainwashed to think that 'the government' should do everything for us.  it is a total load of BS. If the government just stopped stealing from us, we would have an INCREDIBLY healthy economy and society.

The second (and less desirable) way is historical — the Air Force originated as the Army Air Corps, an arm of the Army, similar to the Navy/Marine relationship. Basically, unless your interpretation of the Constitution freezes it in 1789, the Air Force is a perfectly constitutional branch of the U.S. military.

[THEVETERAN7]

How, then, do we except the Air Force? The first way is via common sense — the Framers certainly did not intend to preclude the use of new technology in the U.S. military, and because of the varied roles of the Air Force, it makes sense for it to be a separate branch.

[THEVETERAN7]

@marionmedic It should be noted at the outset that the Constitution does not provide, specifically, for the other uniformed services, the Marines and Coast Guard. The Marines, however, as an arm of the Navy, could be excepted; and the Constitution does provide for "naval forces," and the Coast Guard could thus be excepted.

@marionmedic

The Constitution was ratified in 1787, long, long before the advent of the airplane. It provides, specifically, for a navy and an army in Article 1, Section 8. Though they were aware of lighter-than-air flying craft, the Framers could not have reasonably provided for an Air Force.
