The boiling frog story is a widespread anecdote describing a frog slowly being boiled alive. The premise is that if a frog is placed in boiling water, it will jump out, but if it is placed in cold water that is slowly heated, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death. The story is often used as a metaphor for the inability of people to react to significant changes that occur gradually.


This wikipedia quote is not correct. The analogy should end with the frog NOTICING that hey, something is wrong, it's really hot in here - and TRYING to jump out. But by that time, the warm water has made it's muscles too soft and useless, so it can't jump high enough to get out, and only after this shocking realization it will die from the boiling.

The point of that story is and always was - that the frog only notices it when it's too late! That's why it works - it's going to soon be too late to do anything about it, so even if you realize that you are not really your strawman, and that the acts and statutes only apply to those who willingly consent (!) to being governed by them (by performing a joinder between you the living human and the paper-"person" (with the social insurance number or SIN or social security number or SSN)), it's going to be too late to act upon this knowledge..

Is this confusing? Well, this explains it all: www.yourstrawman.com...

You can also put "meet your strawman" to youtube search and you should find this cute and humorous little grayscale (what people call black+white, although it's really grayscale) video that explains the basics of what 'Freeman on the Land' really means, and how we all have been duped to willingly and voluntarily GIVING our rights away (did you know that 'liberty' really means 'freedom from government tyranny'?), governments didn't have to TAKE them (not that they could be taken anyway)..
