Tower, perhaps you can help me understand the end goal of the Freeman movement. I can see the appeal for an individual to avoid taxes or get out of a speeding ticket here or there. Assuming for a moment that what you are espousing is in fact true, what happens when everyone sees the light and becomes a Freeman on the Land?
From what I've read and the examples that have been provided thus far, it seems the real benefit to being a Freeman is taking advantage of the naive masses. As onetwo_threefour and Jammies have hit on, it seems like being a Freeman allows you to take advantage of the credit granted by banks or slurpees provided by 7-11 without upholding your end of the bargain. That, I think, is why a lot of people have a hard time debating the thinkfree movement (along with the sheer lunacy of a lot of the claims... but I digress).
Those are only benefits if a handful of people become enlightened while the rest continue to pay taxes and obey the law and fall in step with the evil edicts of the the Law Society.
What happens when everyone wakes up? Won't that throw everything into chaos? Will I still be able to access CalgaryPuck when I am my own soverign?
