Are You A Citizen or A National? by Ann von Reitz

Are You A Citizen or A National?
1. The sovereignty of America is vested in fifty nation-states. Both states and nations are poltiical entities. Nations control the land jurisdiciton. States control the sea jurisdition.
2. People recieve their nationalaity from where on the land they are born. We are Virginians, Ohioans, Wisconsinites and so on as a result. That is our "nationality".

9. The vast majority of people claiming to be "citizens" are not citizens, They are just very confused people claiming to be something that they are not, and which in most cases they don't want to be, because being a citizen involves many expenses and obligations. When you "submit yourself" to being a "citizen" of a state, you lose your sovereignty and instead of the government serving you, you serve the government.
