I can't understand why you guys can't get your heads around this.David13 wrote: ↑July 8th, 2017, 11:59 am I can't understand how in the world anyone does not understand that the court, an official court of the land wherein the court lies, exists, is venued, is a part, an agency, an arm, a branch, a division of ... THE GOVERNMENT.
The English courts arose from ... THE KINGS COURT, of which the king was the original decider in that court, and then ultimately delegated that authority to 'lesser subordinates'. Judges.
Its comical the contortions some people with go to with regard to that.
Here, Amtrak is part of the government. It's owned lock, stock and barrel by the government.
But if you mention that anywhere near the trains, you will hear, "Oh!, but they are an independent agency!" As if that makes the slightest hoot of a difference.
Tell me, when, for their entire life they have shortages of now a billion or more dollars a year, does the government give them that money, make up their shortfall, IF THEY ARE NOT THE GOVERNMENT?
Does the government make up my business shortages?

The Crown is the ultimate authority in this country. The government is an agency of the Crown and is answerable to it. The judiciary is an agency of the Crown and is answerable to it.
But the judiciary is not answerable to the government, nor the government to the judiciary.
In terms of finance, the Crown is absolutely loaded. The government isn't, and has to raise money from taxation and/or borrowing. But the Crown is independently wealthy beyond measure. For example, every piece of real estate in this kingdom is ultimately owned by the Crown. Every house, every field, every road, factory, stadium, tree, farm, port, beach, mountain and valley is owned by the Crown.
Nice work if you can get it!
