YouTube - Ring of Power: Empire of the City-Full Length Documentary
Here is the full movie about the same subject.
The main thing I had no idea about until now are the 3 city states: The vatican I knew about but I didn't know about the city of London and the city of Columbia in Washington DC being tax havens and having independant laws to their host nations.
.............. Yeah C is for cookie.You could learn more watching Sesame Street.
"C" really is for cookie...
Hmmm.... the (oddly named) Organic Act, which proclaimed Washington's boarders to be one in the same with the District's.
I apologise, I wrote city when I should have wrote district of Columbia ....
I apologise, I wrote city when I should have wrote district of Columbia, if you read the Wikipedia description they explain that residents do pay taxes, however non resident workers are exempt from paying income tax.
The producer of the video has done an enormous amount of research however some of her findings are beyond belief until you hear the facts and evidence provided.
I suggest you watch it with a skeptical open mind, there are too many subjects to mention here.
Hmmm.
Funny thing.
If Washington's borders are one and the same with the District's, then I suppose Washington's boarders are one and the same with the District's.
So you have escaped my anal fault-finding wrath yet again, jbt.
Federal and Local taxes are based on where you live, whereas state income taxes are based on where you work. Since DC is NOT a state, it is not allowed to charge income taxes on people who do not live there. This does not mean that people who work there, but live elsewhere do not pay income tax - that is a blatant lie.
Well, here's a sample:
You can look at the text of the Treaty of Paris of 1783 here. The word "prince" occurs twice in the document, both times in the preamble: "Prince George the Third, by the grace of God, king of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, defender of the faith, duke of Brunswick and Lunebourg, arch- treasurer and prince elector of the Holy Roman Empire etc." There is, of course, no such phrase as "prince of the United States" anywhere in the document. Article 1 of the treaty reads:5. The U.S.A. - A Crown Colony.
A sobering study of the signed treaties and charters between Britain and the United States exposes a shocking truth. The United States has always been and still is a British Crown colony. . . .
After America declared its independence from Great Britain, the treaty of 1783 was signed. That treaty specifically identifies the king of England as the prince of the United States and contradicts the belief that America won the war of independence.
So, I would say that this page is just a load of demented made-up crap passed off as fact in the expectation, no doubt justified, that there are plenty of gullible, uncritical-minded fools who will accept its claims as true.His Brittanic Majesty acknowledges the said United States, viz., New Hampshire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, to be free sovereign and independent states, that he treats with them as such, and for himself, his heirs, and successors, relinquishes all claims to the government, propriety, and territorial rights of the same and every part thereof.
Three cities ... count 'em.[SIZE=+1]6. Obelisks[/SIZE]
At the center of each city state is a towering phallic shaped stone monument called an obelisk that points skyward. In DC city state, the obelisk known as the Washington monument was dedicated to the Freemason George Washington by the Freemason grand lodge of the District of Columbia. 250 Masonic lodges financed the Washington obelisk monument, including the Knights Templar Masonic order.
At the heart of London city state, is a 187 ton 69 foot tall Egyptian obelisk called Cleopatra's Needle. It was transported from Egypt and erected on the banks of the river Thames.
In Vatican city, another Egyptian obelisk towers high above St Peter's square.
Obelisks are phallic shaped monuments honoring the pagan sun god of ancient Egypt called Amen Ra. The spirit of this pagan god is said to reside within the obelisk.
