The State Claiming Safety Deposit Boxes to Pay Budget
A woman says the state took her property and sold it for a fraction of its cost.
The 50 U.S. states are holding more than $32 billion worth of unclaimed property that they're supposed to safeguard for their citizens. But a "Good Morning America" investigation found some states aggressively seize property that isn't really unclaimed and then use the money -- your money -- to balance their budgets.
Unclaimed property consists of things like forgotten apartment security deposits, uncashed dividend checks and safe-deposit boxes abandoned when an elderly relative dies.
Banks and other businesses are required to turn that property over to the state for safekeeping. The problem is that the states return less than a quarter of unclaimed property to the rightful owners.
Not-So-Safe-Deposit Boxes
San Francisco resident Carla Ruff's safe-deposit box was drilled, seized, and turned over to the state of California, marked "owner unknown."
"I was appalled," Ruff said. "I felt violated."
Unknown? Carla's name was right on documents in the box at the Noe Valley Bank of America location. So was her address -- a house about six blocks from the bank. Carla had a checking account at the bank, too -- still does -- and receives regular statements. Plus, she has receipts showing she's the kind of person who paid her box rental fee. And yet, she says nobody ever notified her.
"They are zealously uncovering accounts that are not unclaimed," Ruff said.

Well the bank account is registered to the ALL CAPS name which is intellectual property of the STATE / CROWN. Try and open a bank account with your lawful Christian name. You can't. JOHN DOE = gov't controlled entity, John-Joeseph: Doe is the proper way to lawful hold your property but the gov't can't touch it or legalize it. Now you know all your property already belongs to the state. You are using the name & number of the BEAST (federal gov't) coming soon microchips (the mark).
ReplyDeleteActually, it is not the 'all caps' spelling that differentiates the legal name(State owned) from the name you commonly respond to. It is the fact that the family name (normally a referential name) has been converted into a primary name (surname) for the fiction role.
ReplyDeleteAn adult man (male or female) is a mind existing within a physical body. A mind is not a thing, and thus cannot be named. All a name can be to an adult man is an appellation - a term that draws your attention.
We use the State owned name to communicate with corporate entities, called 'persons'. That use is by 'necessity'; however, the State sees us as being an attachment to State property, and thus making us also State property by legal maxim - called 'persons'. Then, the 13th Amendment is invoked calling us convicted criminals for unauthorized use of State owned property, and allows the State to impose 'involuntary servitude' upon us.
Now, isn't that in-genius?
Our bodies and our production has always been a state asset and we are indeed property. Jordan Maxwell's video Matrix of Control explains it in very good detail.
ReplyDeleteYour birth certificate is essentially an ownership title. The USA is just a large corporation. That is why we act like one. Very little morals and all concern is toward PR and Profit.
Going further, we are not even citizens of the United States of America, but rather assets of the "Virginia Corporation" which is owned by the British Nobility. If you look for an American Flag, look to see if it has gold fringe. You would find them in Courts, etc. The gold fringe indicates that you are under "British Maritime Law". The only part of the United States not owned by the British Virginia Corporation is Washington D.C. The Constitution of the United States was never actually accepted by the British. It was just that the shots stopped being fired in the Rev ulationary War. The British never really gave up, they just quit trying to overcome us. D.C. was taken and laid out by the Founding Fathers in a very special manner, and place.
ReplyDeleteNone of this you will find in the History books, or taught in the schools. Hence, this is the basis of what the above posters are saying. Each State owns what is in that State, as part of the overall Virginia Corporation, at least technically. Not sure if any of it matters, but later on it might.
Cheers!!!!
This is the reason why I cleaned out my safe deposit box a year ago. If the state breaks into it -- they will find nothing there.
ReplyDeleteThe 'gold fringed' American flag is the flag of corporate UNITED STATES, and that is whether it has a fringe or not. The maritime law is the jurisdiction of all corporate bodies, as corporations are 'make-believe' ships at sea - with a captain (president, CEO, etc,) and 'officers' and 'subservient/slave crewmembers called 'persons'.
ReplyDeleteGreat Britain, and all its former colonies are incorporated bodies belonging to the fascist/corporate Holy Roman Empire of the Pontiff of Rome. The City of London and the City of Columbia (DC) are sub-capitols of the Holy Roman Empire. DC was the former property of the ecclesiastical corporation sole called RC Bishop Sullivan, with that CS being owned by the HRE.
Someone has been studying Jordan Maxwell's research. Very good. Yep everytime I used to see the gold fringe around the US flag in a courtroom I used to wonder what that meant.
ReplyDeletePlus the three steps to get up to the judge.
Plus the black robe. Where the court's revenue goes.
The meaning of the word 'court.'
Fascinating stuff for sure.
Things you see everyday but ignore.
1:27 is very correct in their research and knowledge, as are the other posters. To the average American bear, this will sound all very strange, or maybe even "so-what", but it does have dire meanings for us at some point in time. We do seemingly go by our United States Constitution, and it is mildly taught in school, or at least it used to be. In the event of Government imposing martial law, it can be suspended, by the President and/or Congress. Look up all the Executive Orders that were imposed by Presidents going way back. All this is for a purpose that we will not enjoy at all. It will be the total suspension of American liberties that your ancestors, fathers, and sons and daughters have and are fighting for. However, maybe the fight was in the wrong spot(s). A crafty historian will read all the history available from the forming of the United States, all documents, and if staying open minded, will see that the Founding Fathers included many of their future fears into those documents. It amazes me when I ask my 9th grade grandchild questions, and get blank stares! It seems the kids are learning a different story than we olders did. It might be an enlightening thing to help your kids or grandkids with their homework! You might be making a trip to the school to see what the devil is going on!!!!!!
ReplyDelete2:31 no need to do that. Just google 'George Carlin Education'
ReplyDeleteThe government is giving the kind of education it wants people to have, period. Obedient workers that do not think for themselves. Patriotic. Sports fans. Flag waivers. We are good, they are bad.
It does not matter to them that American schools and test grades are at the bottom of the barrel. Not as long as they have apathy and conformity.
Remember all the teachers and professors that got fired and thrown to the wolves for questioning 9/11? That is not allowed. Nor is any independent though. Authority speaks, you agree, end of story.
Disagreements are only allowed when they are issues that our owners have placed before us to keep us arguing amongst ourselves. Religion. Politics. All fake, but extremely useful in controlling the populace.
If the government wanted real education they would get it. It does not.
If the government wanted people to know we are in an economic depression they would say so. It does not.

My father passed away in 2006 and left a substational amount of gold and silver in a safe deposit box. It;s been there since 1987. I try to get my two other brothers to take it out and put it in a personal safe. They think I'm crazy to think the economy is bad and the dollar could collapse. Since my names not on bank register, I cant even see it. What do tyou guys think about having it in deposit box?
ReplyDeleteGet it out of there. There is nothing "safe" about it. Think if your bank goes out of business and gets seized? How long before you can get it out, if you can then?
ReplyDeleteA little known fact about the "patriot act" after 9/11 is that it makes it legal for the government to seize your safe deposit box without a warrant or any due process and don't even have to notify you. They can take it at will.
It is like having you gold out on the yard for the government to take it as they wish.
There is nothing "safe" about a bank.
Just don't tell people you have gold at home. No one.
4:54, with the safe deposit box break-ins by the police in London and the confiscations by the state in California, you'd be better off storing it in your closet in a shoebox. It'd probably be safer than it is now.
ReplyDeleteThe collective IQ of any group immediately becomes that of the lowest member.
ReplyDeleteSomething to consider when it comes to government.
Here is the companion video for the article...
ReplyDeleteUn-Safety Deposit Boxes
.
Food for thought. I wonder how many people have died holding physical gold and have told no one. The gold remains hidden or buried for decades of maybe forever. Probably billions.
ReplyDeleteIf you have someone you can trust I would say be very particular but share with one person.
If you die there is no probate, courts and government nonsense. They just have your blessing to start digging.
Sad that humanity is so low that most of us can't probably think of even one person we can trust 100%.
You people are crazy.
ReplyDeleteWashington Mutual looted my safety deposit box in Berkeley CA before they went belly up and about three thousand dollars of cash was stolen. This is hardly a large and mysterious sum of money posing a threat to the US Government. The safety deposit box payment was current and besides was attached to my checking account as a safeguard. Fortunately, I had removed my passport and family jewelry the month before. If you think this can't happen to you think again. If you have read this, you were warned which is more than I was. If you don't visit your box for more than three months it can be declared "abandoned" by Homeland Security. -That's correct; not visited versus not currently paid up.
ReplyDelete"You people" are crazy? The vast majority of the posts in this forum are by one person. Look at the style of writing, as well as the things he keeps agreeing with himself on. It's one crazy person trying to seem less crazy by being several crazy people.
ReplyDeleteSo is it a bad idea to get a safety deposit box?
