Bills of Attainer and Child Support Rules

The constitution of the United States expressly forbids congress from passing what is known as a "bill of attainer." A bill of attainer" is a law that legislatively determines guilt and inflicts punishment upon named individuals... or readily identifiable groups.... without the protection of a judicial trial" United States v. Archambault, 174 F. Supp. 2d 1009, 1022 (D.S.D. 2001)

Clearly child support enforcement rules and laws passed by Congress that finance the destruction of American families and allow rules that determine child support collection and enforcement,"(determines guilt) and to be held indefinitely in prison, (contempt of court, inflicts punishment) without rights of speedy trial, legal council etc. (without the protection of judicial trial) is, in fact, an unconstitutional bill of attainer.

So how can the courts make rules that self-servingly declare war on American families, even though the constitution forbids the practice. There are two possibilities. One, the courts just ignored the constitution completely in their rulings. This is not only possible but probable. The courts ignore the constitution on a daily basis. No real surprise here. Most law schools do not teach constitutional law and most judges are ignorant of constitutional law.

American jurisprudence requires judges rule according to past precedent law. Clearly courts cherry pick those portions of precedent law to facilitate a desired result. The history of American law, complete with old English Common law, yields any interpretation imaginable for an activist judge to make sinister and unconstitutional rulings. Failing to find American precedent law, judges are increasing turning to international law to interpret the US Constitution.

The second possibility is a little more sinister. Congress, whose members are predominately lawyers (members of the judicial branch,) and the States (also controlled by lawyers) must fund the giant welfare state by jailing American citizens for debt. Judges claim to preserve justice and the best interest of children by jailing a child's father indefinitely -- an old practice dating back to Medieval England. Here judges redefine debt as an obligation therein justifying jailing for debt.

Either way there is no longer a functioning constitution for the United States. Power no longer resides in the people, flowing upward to their leaders. The power now flows from the top (Congress and the Courts) down, similar to Hitler's "leadership principle."

It is time to discard any illusions you may have that you live in a free country governed by a constitution and the rule of law. You live in a fascist/communist police state and the only law, is that which is handed down to you from the the corrupt courts.

[¶35] A bill of attainer is a law that legislatively determines guilt and inflicts punishment upon named individuals, see e.g., United States v. Lovett, 328 US 303 (1946), or readily identifiable groups, see e.g., Ex parte Garland, 4 Wall (71 US) 333 (1867), "without provision of the protections of a judicial trial." Selective Service System v. Minn. Public Interest Research Group, 468 US 841, 846-47 (1984); Nixon v. Administrator of General Services, 433 US 425, 468 (1977); see also Planned Parenthood of Mid-Missouri v. Dempsey, 167 F3d 458, 465 (8th Cir. 1999).In passing a bill of attainer, Congress departs from its constitutional role of providing general rules for the government of society and usurps the judicial role by determining guilt legislatively. Fletcher v. Peck, 6 Cranch (10 US) 87 (1810). The danger of such a law is, of course, that it deprives the accused of the protections afforded by judicial process.
