They believe that the government opens a secret trust in your name when you are born worth 2 million dollars, that you can charge your debt to through magical paperwork.

Whoa. Talk about a rabbit hole.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Right? And they firmly believe it.

What happens when you exceed the original $2M?

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

I don't think any of them have thought that far ahead since no one has successfully charged a penny to these nonexistent trusts

[-] thedarkfly@feddit.nl 6 points 2 years ago

I'm confused. These people want nothing to do with government because they didn't consent to being born under its authority, right? And they want to tap into money that daddy government allegedly set aside for them?

On the other hand, I'm wondering if maybe all of this might be out of desperation in the broken debt system of the us? Or maybe they just want to cheat a system that they don't respect...

Honestly, don't look for consistent logic in the sov cit community. Your brain will break.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

The cheating the system is what they want. They are seriously nasty people.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

So for the rest of us suckers, who don’t know about the magic secret, what happens to our 2 million dollars?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago

the government keeps it, silly! And does nothing with it. They just love to put seven billion dollars in three million accounts every year for no reason, and the clerks filing the ~8000 forms a day love their jobs..

What are their sources for this malarkey?!

[-] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 years ago

Maybe some sort of terribly misubderstood interpretation of the UN value of a human life? Best guess I got.

[-] Xaphanos@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I had heard it as a gross misunderstanding of what GDP means.

"Gimme Dat Product"

Also some weird misinterpretation of ancient maritime laws?
