-Caveat Lector-
Please give me a simple "yes" or "no" to this question: Do you support the
enactment of "The Debt Free and Tax Free Amendment" (see below) intact, as
it is? If your answer is "no" I would like you to expalin to me exactly
which parts of the amendment you disagree with and why you disagree with
them.
====================================
THE DEBT FREE & TAX FREE AMENDMENT

Part 2- The Secretary of the Treasury of the United States shall issue per
capita all new money as debt free and tax free currency to banks for bank
reserves for bank lending as prescribed by the Tax Free Money Chart whereby
loan payments are paid back to the borrower, except that the people shall,
by a yearly referendum, approve or reject, by a simple majority of those
voting, the federal government budget as presented to the people by the
President and the Congress, and the residents of the various states,
counties, cities, territories, and other communities, shall, by a yearly
referendum, approve or reject, by a simple majority of those voting, their
respective budgets, which, when such budgets are so approved, Secretary of
the Treasury shall authorize that portion of the money supply so approved to

usury, the charging of interest on money lending, or slavery of any kind,
including debt/tax slavery.
Part 7- A Maximum wealth holding formula shall be established whereby the
accumulation of income, wealth, and other property in excess of the
established maximum is hereby prohibited unless it can be proven by the
owner and/or owners of that wealth that such wealth was acquired without
using any kind of usury, exploitation, or slavery of any kind, or in any
form including foreign investment, and the ownership of land, business, and
capital, which is hereby prohibited and shall be confiscated.
Part 8- 100% of the gross profit of all businesses and corporations shall be
paid out to the owners of those businesses and corporations before any new
