Corruption Of Blood

Why has the world been so silent on the issue of American Presidents ordering military actions in sovereign countries... especially when the targets and victims are American citizens‽ Below are 2 postings of a little 28 second video about the issue... come on folks... It's just 28 seconds.

Thursday Thoughts...Redacted

 Now that I’m having to use my creative outlet of writing under advice to avoid topics concerning my local and state governments, sometimes finding something else to write about can be quite the challenge.  I am naturally drawn to topics that more directly affect me, my family and my friends, thus why I’ve concentrated on local, regional and state topics.  Whether you agree with my positions on issues, I still have the right to publish my views on them as long as I am civil and factual.  For example… the taxation issue that I’ve brought up many times before.

 

Yes, the government needs funding and I strongly believe that if they want to take that funding from people that have already paid income taxes, local governments should diligently strive to constrain spending so that it does not exceed their legal income. If the local government is mandated to spend more money than it has, it should first seek full-relief from the entity that is mandating any spending.  The next course of action is to draw up a responsible and detailed fiscal plan and present it in-full to the constituents.  Then if more funding is needed and the government decides to use taxation to acquire it…  they must follow the prescribed method by which to enact a taxation schedule.

 

The State of Alaska Statutes clearly states that modifications and additional taxes must be approved by a majority of the Voters in a public Referendum and the City of Dillingham Municipal Code references this exact statute.  But this is not how things operate here in Dillingham Alaska. Despite the fact that this has been brought to the attention of the Mayor, City Council and Manager’s office many times before, not one thing has been done to remedy this fault. 

 

Why is that?

My Body... My Choice!

Happy Monday Folks... 

I had originally planned to post something today that I have been doing some reading and research on for sometime, but the actions of the Dillingham City Council have side tracked me.  I strongly suggest that you read this post and share it along with others.  


 

As people begin to look through the ‘Emergency’ measures being enacted and/or proposed by the City of Dillingham, several things have stood out.  One of those is the Council granting unilateral power to hired employees to restrict travel, gatherings and even commerce. Putting aside the declared ‘emergency’ issues that some people believe are either overstated or understated; granting the power to infringe upon Constitutional rights to anyone, much less a government employee is crossing a line that should never, ever be crossed.  Another no go area is allowing a hired employee of the people to determine when ‘unrelated’ or ‘prohibitory’ laws can be ignored and broken. Allowing administrative impunity to any law is one of those things that caused the formation of this nation to which all elected officials swear an oath to protect.  I recommend for further reading; people should check out the links below. But to make it easier for those elected officials are too busy to do their own homework on what they swore that oath to… let me remind you of a few key points.

 

Last week the City Council introduced their newest Emergency Order which is an expansion of the last version which some changes. I suggest that people read pages 3-5 which outlines the scope of power that the Council wants to give to a hired employee of We The People. What’s interesting is that since the beginning of this long dragging ‘emergency’ the council has continued to expand these powers despite a very vocal resistance.  This is what the Alaska Constitution says… 

“We the people of Alaska, grateful to God and to those who founded our nation and pioneered this great land, in order to secure and transmit to succeeding generations our heritage of political, civil, and religious liberty within the Union of States, do ordain and establish this constitution for the State of Alaska.”

 

 

“§ 2. Source of Government

All political power is inherent in the people. All government originates with the people, is founded upon their will only, and is instituted solely for the good of the people as a whole.”


But let’s get back to this ever expanding ‘emergency’ ordinance being considered for revision by the Dillingham City Council…

 

“Introduce Ordinance 2020-22; An Ordinance of the Dillingham City Council Authorizing the City Manager to Utilize the Emergency Operations Center to Promulgate and Enforce Regulations to Stop the Spread of COVID-19 in Accordance with the Recommendations in the City of Dillingham COVID-19 Mitigation Plan”

But perhaps the most interesting power that they want to grant is the authority to order a medical procedure… a physical violation of a person based upon an ambiguous definition of what ‘symptomatic’ may or may not be. 

 

“Order testing for individuals who are symptomatic or in other situations where testing may be appropriate to limit transmission of COVID-19;” 

 

 

That is absolutely across every single line that exists between We The People and Our Government. Anyone that votes to approve these and any further changes to the ‘Emergency’ ordinance should seriously rethink their involvement in the public process of representing the people. Ordering the violation of any person’s body so as to classify them because of a medical reason goes way beyond violating the meaning “My Body, My Choice!”

Taxation Without Representation


One of the founding ideals of the republic of several states that We know as the United States of America is that We The People shall not be taxed without representation and consent.  The issues surrounding the taxation of colonists led to such famous events as the ‘Boston Tea Party’ on December 16, 1773.  There have also been tax protests in modern times but most have failed because there is a segment of the US population that firmly believes that they are owed a portion of the earnings and perceived value of property of others.  Time and time again the courts have ruled in favor of these taxes… most of the time those rulings are validation of existing code that prescribes taxes.

 

However, in the City of Dillingham there is NO valid code that authorizes any taxation.  This is pure fact as attested to by former government employees in the attached documents. The State of Alaska law states clearly that any taxation must be approved by a public referendum.  There has never been a public vote on the current tax structure used by the City of Dillingham and all taxes enacted since July 1, 1977 are illegal. Below is a copy of a fact sheet submitted by a former City of Dillingham resident concerning the issue.  The key facts are #2 #4 which is also sworn to by affidavit of a City employee.   





 



In fact, the City of Dillingham’s own Attorney in 1994 warned the municipality that the Voters had never ratified any tax regime and that any changes to the in-place taxation scheme would likely create a problem.  This problem did in-fact arise sometime later as the City of Dillingham chose to pursue through the courts several property owners that had not submitted the illegal tax payments.  However, the Judge in those cases was the former City Attorney and in a CYA move, ruled to toss out the evidence that clearly showed that the taxation scheme being used by the City of Dillingham was illegal. 







 


The point of this post is to fully inform other residents and property owners of these facts so that they may act to rectify the situation.  If in fact people believe that they are owed some portion of another person’s income and/or property value, then it must be done so in accordance with the laws of the State of Alaska.  The City of Dillingham Council must immediately suspend all collection of taxes and then submit to the voters a fair and non-progressive taxation schedule. This is the only correct way to fix an issue that should have never come about in the first place.

I will be submitting a slightly modified version of this in the form of a letter to the Mayor, City Council, City Manager and heads of the BBs.  I have raised this issue with the Mayor and Council in writing before with absolutely no response from anyone.  So in saying that, I may also seek assistance in getting this published in the ‘regional’ newspaper so as to expand the audience and raise the issue to a higher level of concern for those that are not aware of these facts.
