Let's just say this treatise written by George Mercier is a shocking eye opener. I have been unable to cease reading since beginning several days ago.

From the treatise, banks are instrumentalities of Congress. Opening an account is a commercial agreement ensnaring one into a series of additional invisible contracts with the King (government). The Constitution plays no part in the contract, it being private law. The opening of an account (benefit) is evidence of commerce for profit and gain plus acceptance of the terms and conditions set by the King (agreement). You agree to the Bank Secrecy Act, SARs, no privacy, and anything else the King decides is his prerogative. Commerce, in part, is King's Law (I have heard that equity is King's Law as well).

Farmer is right (in addition to my appreciation for his wit and humor). Convert the money into items of substantive value e.g. property, gold, silver, supplies for survival, etc. Also, cash on hand never hurts. Tis better than a bank holiday with your cash in an account you can't gain access to.
