1
Statement of Purpose. The general court finds that the authority of
the department of safety is limited to only the commercial users of the
public ways and that the corporate state employees have, by their
silence, failed to fully inform the sovereign people of this state that
an automobile has been confirmed by Chief Justice Grimes, in 108 N.H.
386, to be "private property" defined by current RSA 382-A:9-109, as
"household goods" and "consumer goods" not for commercial use or for
profit or gain. Further, the courts have found that corporate public
servants who ignore their accountability as mandated in Article 8, N.H.
Bill of Rights have by their silence and failure to fully inform the
sovereign people of the consequences arising from the corporate "offer
to contract," is deemed silent deception and inducement by fraud.

This sounds almost too good to be true...
The State of New Hampshire will not give up the $260 Million per year that it gets from licensing.
We don't have a government.We have been captured by a corporate agency.Through ignorance and so silence we have given up our rights and excepted codes,statutes and color of law rules.In a free country we don't need licence to do anything that doesn't harm anyone (or kill).Diploma in your chosen field should be all that's required.Greed shapes the minds of the ruling class and ignorance on our part gives them their licence.
Inexpedient to Legislate
The bill is dead and will not be reconsidered.
