Article 1 Fiscal Year 2020

§71 Balance

A. Title 24 US Code Chapter 3 National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers, in preserved only in Subchapter V Battle Mountain Sanitarium Reserve under 24USC§151-154. Starting with Fiscal Year 2001, the Annual Report and Annual Report Appendix have been combined and renamed the Combined Statement of Receipts, Outlays, and Balances of the United States Government (Combined Statement). The Combined Statement is recognized as the official publication of receipts and outlays. All other federal government reports containing similar data must be in agreement with the Combined Statement. However, although budget receipt and total receipts are clearly distinguished, there is no attempt to comprehensively tabulate outlays and this compromises exact calculation of deficit / surplus. As the result of neglecting to methodically tabulate the outlay overview by category, the Combined Statement completely fails to distinguish between budget authority and excluded interagency and lending outlays and this perpetuates the myths sustaining a +/-12 percent margin of error in the annual estimate of outlays by agency in Table 4.1 of the Office of Management andBudget (OMB) Historical Tables that greatly exceeds the tendency to overestimate revenues by about 2 percent resulting in a larger deficit, t-bond sale and audit, further complicated by threatened budget cuts and arrears therefore, than is wanted.

1. In the US and EU, the global COVID-19 pandemic caused a -33 percent economic decline in the second quarter, after a -5 percent decline in the first quarter. 2020 GDP is certain to be economically depressed from the previous year's dispute between real UN approved and nominal GDP. How long and severe the economic depression is going to be, in industrialized nations where “affluenza” is an aggravating factor, depends on two mitigating factors. First, how long does it take for public officials to stop restricting economic activity and prescribe Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) to cure coronavirus and mold allergies. Second, whether the Treasurer decides to devaluate the dollar before October 1, 2020 to spare the stock market withdrawal from the ultra-expensive relief acts and deficit in excess of 3 percent of GDP. COVID-19 pandemic relief acts in the US cost four times as much as similar, more law-abiding, relief packages in the EU. The contagion of the $666 payroll protection program (PPP) loan fraud and other un-dismissed relief bills, including the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), believed to have been passed under the influence of speed (ephedrine), must be prevented from spreading from small businesses to C corporations, by devaluating the USdollar by October 1, 2020 pursuant to the Marshal Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421, 22USC§5301 et seq. and the Revised estimates: effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General December 2019.

2. Economic depression is certain to have a negative impact on many sources of federal revenues and increase the real deficit preliminarily estimated at $1 trillion FY 20 by OMB, without taking into consideration revenues lost to the pandemic or deficit reduction from the annual HA audit. However the extended July 15, 2020 tax day yielded 5 percent growth in individual income tax from April 15, 2019. Maybe tax day should be permanently made July 15 and the deadline for the annual social security reports summer solstice June 20-21. Despite record levels of official unemployment running 10 percent to 12 percent, individual income and payroll taxes seem to be limitingpotential contraction to less than -10 percent. The extraordinarily expensive relief acts are believed to have helped to offset a considerable amount of immediate economic and fiscal depression, but economic depression is certain to impact both calendar and fiscal years, when the loan forgiveness expires at the end of the fiscal year and the deficit becomes debt to be sold as special issue and marketable t-bonds. To responsibly conclude the FY 20 overspending crisis, it is essential that the dollar is sufficiently devaluated by October 1, 2020, the first day of FY 21.

B. The ordinary expense of modern governments in time of peace is equal or nearly equalto their ordinary revenue according to Adam Smith's Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, (1776) Public Debts Book V Chapter III . Since 1980 several balanced budget amendments have been proposed however none were agreed to. Normally governments run on a deficit. According to the EU deficits should not exceed 3% of GDP. A federal budget surplus is an extremely elusive goal that has been achievedonly a few times in American history. Most famously the time President Andrew Jackson paid back the entire national debt in 1832 although Immanuel Kant had written earlier that this was theoretically impossible to do in Perpetual Peace (1795). Although the United States earned a $70 million surplus 1789-1849, the Civil War incurred a -$991million deficit 1850-1900. Between 1900 and 1920 the budget fluctuated tens of millionsdollars surplus or deficit, regardless of the war in Europe. From 1920 until after the stockmarket crash in 1931 there was a surplus. Since the end of World War II 1947 – 1948, the federal government has declared a surplus only in 1960 and 1999-2000. The surplus of 1999-2000 was doomed because it did not increase revenues. Emboldened the ease with which they were able to steal child welfare benefits 1996-2000, Clinton managed to generate a temporary budget surplus by cutting military and health spending, however this temporary surplus, was lost to the 9-11 suicide attacks and cost of international war.

1. The Great Recession (2009-11) was in fact an economic depression lasting three years.Instead of devaluating the dollar to bailout financial institutions damaged by adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) loans, Congress and EU negligently got into debt, withdrawing the bailout funds from the stock market, causing economic depression and then engaging in avicious cycle of expensive Recovery Acts that served to prolong the economic depressionuntil a year after the relief acts stopped excessively withdrawing investment funds from the stock market. If revenue growth had not gone down due to xenophobia FY 16 - FY 17and temporary tax relief for the rich 2018-2025 not been passed, revenue growth in excess of outlay growth was predicted to generate a real budget surplus, after excluding fake outlay rows as soon as FY 17. However, xenophobia led to germaphobia and the ultra-expensive relief Act(s) have once again incurred the largest deficit in history. It remains to be seen if the United States devaluates the dollar to conclude the economic depression before withdrawal spreads from small to large business. Trump Administration tax and budget cut attempts have dramatically increased the projected

7

deficit, for the obvious reason that the federal government needs more tax revenues and lesson learned that allowing agency spending reasonable rates of inflation costs less than real compensation paid to budget cut victims and arrears under Art. 19 of the UN Charter.The lesson of the Clinton surplus and Trump budget cut threats is that budget cuts have profound real world consequences that must be avoided. The budget must therefore be balanced by revenue growth that exceeds reasonable inflation in outlays. Revenue projections conservatively estimate that federal expenses will incur an on-budget deficit in excess of 3 percent of GDP regardless of economic interventions until the tax relief forthe rich expires in 2025.

2. The good news is that the extended July 15, 2020 tax-day yielded 5 percent growth in individual income tax from April 15, 2019. Maybe tax-day should be permanently made July 15 and the deadline for the annual social security reports summer solstice June 20-21. Despite record levels of official unemployment running 10 percent to 12 percent, individual income and payroll taxes seem to be limiting potential contraction to +/-5 percent. Payroll taxes are doing better than could be expected, but are expected to exhibit more retarded growth than individual income taxes because low income workers in small businesses have been laid off, while C corporations wear a mask and abide by CDC guidelines and declare losses while CEO compensation skyrockets. The extraordinarily expensive relief acts are believed to have helped to offset a considerable amount of immediate economic and fiscal depression, but economic depression is certain to impact both calendar and fiscal years, and this threatens to continue into 2021 as special issue and marketable t-bonds in excess of 3 percent of GDP incur dollar for dollar withdrawal from the stock exchange.

3. There are four interventions that can greatly improve outcomes to explain variable estimates for a given year and budget priorities. One prescribe Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) to cure the COVID-19 pandemic and Oseltamivir (Tamiflu), Zanamivir (Relenza) or Amantadine (Symmetrel) to cure influenza pandemics. Two devaluate the dollar FY 21 to prevent catastrophic withdrawalfrom the stock market and worsening economy. Three, close the loopholes to the payroll tax for the rich, state employees and energy export excise tax to strengthen the dollar. The rich and state employees must be taxed to afford to pay for COVID-19 disabled workers and create an SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030. Energy exports taxed to afford to pay UN Arrears and Certain Iranian Assets. Sustainable consumer economic growth, revenues, federal satisfaction and economic well-being should accelerate and the dollar might appreciate by an estimated $250 billion, 1.3 percent. Four, conclusively end the trade war by reducing tariffs 0.97 annually from 2016 pursuant to the Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reductions (2007).

4. The Treasury must not fail to pass all of these measures due to the dire economic consequences we already suffer for rejecting any of these proposals. When the tax relief for the rich from Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) expires in 2025 a federal budget surplus should be achievable. If elected, the Democratic Presidential candidate might repeal the individual income tax relief for the rich earlier. It is necessary for Congress to close the tax loopholes in the payroll tax for the rich and state employees and energy export tax, without any reservations or further denial of 2.5 percent annual payroll increase, to pay for COVID-19 disabled workers and small business owners bankrupted by the quarantine, and create a SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030. The usual deficit, not including relief acts, preliminarily estimated at $1 trillion FY20 by OMB has gone up to $1,084 billion FY 20 due to the pandemic, after the normally significant deficit reduction by the annual HA audit, due to conservative revenue estimates. Including the nearly $1.5 trillion price of the Relief Acts, the $1 trillion federal deficit increases to $2.5 trillion FY 21 or can be reduced to $2.3 trillion if the rich are taxed. Although no intervention is expected to limit the deficit to less than 3 percent of GDP until the TCJA expires in 2025, the advantage of taxing is that the deficit would certainly be less than 3 percent of GDP when the TCJA expires. Untaxed the federal budget projection fails the short and intermediate term analysis of financial adequacy, and deficits will continue to burden the economy, after the recovery.

C. The currency is devaluated by the proportion of the size of the bailout less value of foreign currency reserves, divided by the size of the GDP. Economic depression is certain to have a negative impact on many sources of federal revenues. The usual deficit in excess of 5 percent of GDP is believed to have already incurred several withdrawals from the stock market, to let investors know what to expect if deficits in excess of 3 percent of GDP continue. The $1.5 trillion federal cost of the special issue bonds for relief acts, including up to $10 billions postal service and $250 billion state unemployment compensation loans have been deferred until fiscal year 21. To conclude the FY 20 overspending crisis painlessly, in harmony with the Euro, without again irresponsibly prolonging the economic depression with the crippling price of public debt to the stock market, the Treasury has no option but devaluate the dollar October 1, 2020, the first day of fiscal year 2021. Devaluation is estimated by the deferred price of the relief acts and/or total deficit, less +/- $133 billion foreign exchange currency held by the Federal Reserve as a percent of $19.4 trillion GDP, but GDP statistics and deficit cannot be better than wild guesstimates until the September Monthly Treasury Statement total is released and distributed by the 2020 Combined Statement and third quarter GDP estimates are released by BEA. Nonetheless, it is proposed that the US devaluate the dollar by the $1.5 trillion amount of the Relief Acts plus whatever it takes to reduce the usual deficit to less than 3 percent of GDP FY 21, no more than -$596 billion FY 21. $1.7 trillion, 8.2 percent devaluation if the tax measures are passed or $1.9 trillion, 9.0%percent devaluation without taxes. Devaluation may want to be continued to offset deficits in excess of 3 percent of GDP until the tax relief for the rich from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act expires in 2025 or is defeated in the election, and the ability of usual revenue growth to sustain outlay growth is restored.

1. Dissatisfaction with the competitive devaluations and "beggar-thy-neighbour" policies of the Depression years led to the Bretton Woods system of fixed, but adjustable, exchange rates after the Second World War. Dissatisfaction with pegged exchange rates in an environment of global inflationary pressures and rising capital mobility led to the floating of all major currencies backed by the US Dollar in 1973. The Marshal Lerner Condition is whereby developing nation currencies should be appreciated to improve consumer purchasing power in relation with industrialized nation currencies, that must bedevaluated to increase exports, pursuant to enhancement of engagement on currency exchange rate and economic policies with certain major trading partners of the United

10

States under 19USC§4421 and 22USC§5301 et seq. It is the policy of the United States to encourage international economic negotiations to achieve macroeconomic policies and exchange rates consistent with appropriate and sustainable balances in trade and capital flows and to foster price stability in conjunction with economic growth. From time to time the United States shall, in close coordination with other major industrialized countries, adjust the international currency exchange rates of the United States and specified foreign nations to achieve macro-economic policy goals under 22USC§5303. Because the United Nations operates on a monetary system backed by, and quantified in the US dollar, instead of causing a reduction in prices, such 2019 UN assessments of devaluating nations, devaluation of the US dollar should uniquely increase the size of the global economy. The Gross World Product (GWP) total currencies worldwide become worth more in US dollar terms, depending on how much the US dollar is devaluated.

D. Since taking office, President Trump has unilaterally imposed numerous new tariffs onsteel, aluminum, and a variety of goods from China, creating upward pressure on prices in the United States. All these tariffs are unlawful under the Swiss Formula for UnilateralTariff Reduction (2007) and these safeguards must be limited to not more than four years unless they are substantially justified, which they are not, pursuant to Chapter XII and XIII of the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs (1994). He has squandered his industrial support on tariffs. Based on 2019 import levels, U.S. and retaliatory tariffs currently impact over $470 billion of imports and exports, and President Trump’s tariffs are increasing annual consumer costs by roughly $57 billion annually. In 2019, the U.S. trade deficit was $616.8 billion according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis and the U.S. Census. The U.S. Imported $3.1 trillion of goods and services while exporting $2.5 trillion. The deficit is lower than in 2018 when it was $627.7 billion. The deficit is less than the record of $758 billion in 2006. The decrease since then means U.S. exports grew faster than imports, that would be good for U.S. businesses and job growth, if there were not a decline in total trade volume due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The dollar declined by 40% against the euro from 2001 through 2007. This meant that U.S. goods and services were 40% cheaper for Europeans. That made U.S. companies more competitive, increasing exports. The 2008 recession offset this advantage, causing globaltrade to decline. U.S. goods exports dropped from $1.3 trillion in 2008 to $1.1 trillion in 2009. Imports fell from $2.1 trillion in 2008 to $1.6 trillion in 2009. Both exports and imports have risen since then. This was despite the continued strength of the dollar since 2009, due to the eurozone crisis weakening of the euro. The dollar briefly weakened in 2017 but strengthened in 2018 through 2020. That's hurt exports.

1. Although not as useful a statistic for determining solvency as the budget deficit or surplus, international trade deficit or surplus is widely respected as an indicator of credit-worthiness and is added to the budget deficit or surplus to produce the current account balance. CBO The Budget and Economic Outlook 2020-2030 released in January 2020, just before the COVID-19 pandemic reduced the total volume of international trade, admits increases in tariffs reduce U.S. economic activity in three ways. First, they make consumer goods and capital goods more expensive, thereby reducing the purchasing power of U.S. consumers and Some of those tariffs apply to imports from nearly all U.S. trading partners, including tariffs on washing machines, solar panels, U.S. imports in 2017. Second, they increase businesses’ uncertainty about future barriers to trade. Such uncertainty leads some U.S. businesses to delay or forgo new investments or make costly adjustments to their supply chains. Third, they prompt retaliatory tariffs by U.S. trading partners, which reduce U.S. exports by making them more expensive for foreign purchasers. All of those effects lower U.S. output. U.S. consumers and businesses replacecertain imported goods with goods produced in the United States, which offsets some of that decline. In addition, tariff revenues, by reducing the deficit, increase the resources available for private investment in later years. However, skyrocketing total Customs revenues are widely suspected to be fraudulent and are to be impounded aiming to eliminate language contrary to tariff reductions or total customs revenues.

E. The "power of the purse" provides "No money shall be drawn from the treasury, but inconsequence of appropriations made by law" under Article 1 Section 9, Clause 7 of the US Constitution. The text of a Balanced Budget Amendment whereby “Congress shall adopt a statement of receipts and outlays for that year in which total outlays are no greater than total receipts” was approved by the Senate (by a vote of 69 to 31) on 4 August 1982 but supported by an inadequate majority of the House of Representatives (with a vote of 236 to 187) on 1 October 1982. The Anti-deficiency Act (ADA) reauthorized September 12, 1982 (Pub.L. 97–258, 96 Stat. 923) is pre-eminent budget legislation enacted by the United States Congress to prevent the incurring of obligations or the making of expenditures (outlays) in excess of amounts available in appropriations or funds. The earliest version of the ADA legislation was enacted in 1870 (16 Stat. 251), after the Civil War, to end the executive branch's long history of creating coercive deficiencies. The act provided... that it shall not be lawful for any department of the government to expend in any one fiscal year any sum in excess of appropriations made by Congress for that fiscal year, or to involve the government in any contract for the future payment of money in excess of such appropriations. The Act was amended and expanded several times, most significantly in 1905 and 1906. It was further modified by an executive order in 1933 and significantly revamped in 1950 (64 Stat. 765).

12

1. The current version of the Anti-Deficiency Act was enacted on September 12, 1982 (96 Stat. 923). The balance of an appropriation or fund limited for obligation to a definiteperiod is available only for payment of expenses properly incurred during the period of availability or to complete contracts properly made within that period of availability and obligated under 31USC§1502(a). Obligations are apportioned on a basis that indicates the need for a deficiency or supplemental appropriation to the extent necessary to permit payment of such pay increases as may be granted pursuant to law under 31USC§1515(a).A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis.

2. The timetable with respect to the congressional budget process for any fiscal year is setforth under 2USC§631. The first Monday in February the President submits his budget under 31USC§1105. February 15 Congressional Budget Office submits report to Budget Committees. Not later than 6 weeks after President submits budget Committees submit views and estimates to Budget Committees. April 1 Senate Budget Committee reports concurrent resolution on the budget. On or before April 15 of each year, the Congress shall complete action on a concurrent resolution on the budget for the fiscal year beginning on October 1 of such year under 2USC§632(a). Concurrent resolution on the budget must be adopted before budget-related legislation is considered under 2USC§634. The Senate shall not vote on a concurrent resolution on the budget that is not mathematically correct under 2USC§636(d). May 15 Annual appropriation bills may be considered in the House. June 10 House Appropriations Committee reports last annual appropriation bill. June 15 Congress completes action on reconciliation legislation. June 30 House completes action on annual appropriation bills. Supplemental or additional budgeting changes and re-appraisements are submitted to Congress before July 16th of every year for the following fiscal year that begins October 1 under 31USC§1106.

§72 Revenues

A. All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills under Art. 2 Sec. 7 Clause 1 of the US Constitution. The Congress shall have Power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States under Art. 1 Sec. 8 Clause 1. The nation was originally financed mostly with tariffs. The first Federal excise taxes levied on distilled spirits in 1791 by Alexander Hamilton paid off the Revolutionary War debts, at the cost of a Whiskey Rebellion. In the 20th century excise taxes, mostly on fuel, exploded on land, air and sea transportation. Energy exports remain to be taxed in the 21st century to potentially generate a customs surplus, or at least justify OMB reporting gross customs revenues and gross federal outlays. The Sixteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution passed by Congress on July 2, 1909 and ratified February 3, 1913 justifies the income tax, corporate income tax, estate and gift tax, and payroll tax that finance the vast majority of modern government and social safety net. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-93), and the Further

13

Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (P.L. 116-94), both enacted in December 2019 adopted various tax provisions, including the extension of the biodiesel Blenders Tax Credit (BTC) that should be converted to fuel tax freedom for renewable fuels, and the repeal of three excise taxes related to health care to prevent consumer price inflation. Excessive growth in Customs Revenues must be impounded pursuant to 0.97 annual tariff reduction since 2016 pursuant to the Swiss Formula on Unilateral Tariff Reductions(2007) and Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) because it is excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2).

1. Starting with Fiscal Year 2001, the Annual Report and Annual Report Appendix have been combined and renamed the Combined Statement of Receipts, Outlays, and Balancesof the United States Government (Combined Statement). The Combined Statement is recognized as the official publication of receipts, hands down, and outlays, by default. Allother federal government reports containing similar revenue data must be in agreement with the Combined Statement. Office of Fiscal Service reported a total of $4.6 trillion in revenues, however $1.1 trillion is excluded from the budget revenue total of $3.5 trillion FY 19. OMB and CBO agree the federal budget received a total of $3.5 trillion in revenues FY 19. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Historical Tables 2.1 – 2.5 Revenues and The Budget and Economic Outlook: 2020 to 2030 published by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) January 2020 agree total revenues including off-budget social security revenues increased steadily to $3.5 trillion FY 19 or 16.3 percent of GDP. There are many reasons to exclude revenues from the revenue total used in the federal budget. Federal lending programs are privately financed except for the guaranty. New obligational authority (NOA) is used to finance the construction and maintenance offederal real estate. Negative subsidies, declaring program surplus and savings, must be excluded so as not to conceal continuing appropriations for the program. OMB and CBOagree with Combined Statement revenue statistics with about a 2 percent margin of error tending toward overestimation.

2. The Monthly Treasury Statement provides an accurate revenue total but distribution is fuzzy regarding the distribution of revenues and especially outlay total, the Combined Statement also understudies. Office of Fiscal Services Monthly Statement reports July receipts totaled a monthly record of $563 billion due to the deferral of certain individual and business taxes from April – June into July. Outlays are up $1.849 trillion (50%) fiscal-year-to-date after adjusting for the acceleration of benefit payments into July. July has been a deficit month 64 times out of the past 66 fiscal years (since FY 1955), becausethere are typically no major corporate or individual tax due dates in this month. Outlays for military active duty and retirement, veterans benefits, Supplemental Security Income, and Medicare payments to health maintenance organizations and prescription drug plans accelerated into July, because August 1, 2020, the normal payment date, fell on a non-business day. The affect of the COVID-19 pandemic on revenues will vary for different programs and can only be crudely estimated before the release of the September 2020 Monthly Treasury Statement Receipts and Outlays of the United States Government in October, by which time the US dollar must already be devaluated to avoid certain excessive withdrawal from the stock exchange. Because the COVID-19 pandemic has already caused two quarters of economic contraction 2020 economic and revenue charts are expected to slide into economic depression. Customs receipts must be impounded pursuant to 0.97 annual adjustment from 2016 pursuant to the Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reductions. Provided the high price of the relief act is offset by devaluation to protect the stock market from excessive withdrawal revenues are expected to recover in 2021 and grow steadily. The Treasury is advised to consider permanently changing annual tax day from April 15 to July 15.

Source: Monthly Treasury Statement: Receipts and Outlays of the United States Government. For Fiscal Year 2020 Through July 31, 2020, and Other Periods. Table 1. Summary of Receipts, Outlays, and the Deficit/Surplus of the U.S. Government, Fiscal Years 2019 and 2020, by Month pg. 5. FY 20 estimate adds August and September FY 19 to October – July FY 20.

3. Adding August and September FY 19 to October – July FY 20 presents an optimistic estimate of recovery. However, a -5 percent to -10 percent decline in individual income tax and payroll tax revenues respectively, is anticipated. Treasury monthly reports of receipts are however optimistic. The delayed July 15, 2020 filing date brought in $564 billion, a 5 percent increase from $535 billion on the previous tax day on April 15, 2019, according to Receipts and Outlays of the United States Government For Fiscal Year 2020Through July 31, 2020. If revenues continue as usual for the last two months of the year it should be possible to limit the COVID-19 depression in individual income tax revenuesto -3 percent to -6 percent or as high as -8 percent, -5 percent seems fair. The payroll tax is though to be slightly more depressed than the individual income or Medicare tax due tothe maximum taxable limit and the disparate impact the pandemic has on low income workers. Corporation income tax is usually severely affected by economic downturn and a moderate -18 percent decline is expected. Estate and gift tax revenues decline dramatically during economic downturns and is estimated to decline 10 percent. Fuel tax and airport revenues are thought to be hit the hardest with -40 percent decline in revenuesdue to a decrease in travel and fuel consumption coupled with extremely low fuel prices.

B. Federal revenues have historically grown at a significantly faster rate than the general economy or federal spending. Between 1990 and 2018 revenues grew an average annual

18

rate of 8.0%. If there had not been a decline in revenues a federal budget surplus was predicted as soon as FY 17 and by FY 18 and no later than FY 20 without improved methods of accounting. In the past 10 years between FY 08 and FY 18 revenues grew an average annual rate of 3.2 percent. Before revenue stagnation, from anti-immigrant policies, began to affect individual income tax receipts in FY 16 and spread to total revenues FY 17 and FY 18, in the five years between the years FY 11 - FY 15 revenues grew an average annual rate of 8.2 percent. OMB Historical Tables are the easiest source of revenues statistics to use. The rhetoric is that the recent nine year economic expansionsince the end of the Great Recession in 2011 to the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic was longest period of economic expansion in U.S. History is not corroborated by uninterrupted 28 years of growth in revenues from 1955 to 1983 reported in the Historical Tables.

1. OMB revenues statistics have only about a 2 percent margin of error regarding revenues, tending toward a slight overestimation of receipts. This habitual slight overestimation of receipts by OMB is much more accurate than the margin of error in anyguesstimate of the impact of the COVID-19. Whereas OMB revenues estimates are the easiest to use, they are utilized to estimate the impact of COVID-19 to produce annual revenues statistics that are closer to the outcome of the pandemic than preliminary overestimates that did not take the pandemic into consideration in pursuit of greater consistency with Combined Statement Revenue by Source. Historical Table revenues statistics are subdivided into Individual Income Tax, Corporate Income Tax, Social Insurance Payroll Tax, On-budget, Off-budget, Excise Taxes, Trust Funds, Other Taxes including Estate and Gift Taxes, Customs Duties and Fees, Miscellaneous Receipts, Federal Reserve Deposits, All Other, Total Miscellaneous.

2. In fiscal year 2020 it is estimated that there will be a -5 percent decline in individual income tax receipts, -18 percent decline in corporate income tax, -5 percent decline in (Medicare) on-budget social insurance, -7 percent decline in social security and unemployment contributions, a -50% decline in excise taxes due to the double whammy of -40 percent declines in fuel and airport receipts and reauthorization of the $1 per gallon Blenders Tax Credit (BTC) retroactive to 2018. A -6 percent decrease in other taxes is anticipated. In fiscal year 2021, and thereafter, provided the dollar is devaluated to prevent excessive withdrawal from the stock market, a six percent increase in all categories of revenues is expected from FY 2020 low. The cost of the BTC is expected to decline from $10 billion to $3 billion in 2021, providing an addition $7 billion to excise tax revenues in 2021. Closing the tax loophole for energy exports is estimated to provide an additional $6 billion in Customs receipts in 2021. It is hoped this credit will beexchanged for the more reasonable price of renewable fuel 24.4 cents per gallon excise tax exemption when it expires in 2022. Declining fuel taxes that are not indexed to increase with inflation, and repressed airport revenues, are expected to cause the Department of Transportation to decouple from the excise taxes, report total revenues andrequest the federal government to pay reasonable inflation of all costs, just like Customs to eliminate contempt of -3 percent annual Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reductions (2007).

C. The Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 requires the federal budget to list tax expenditures, and every year the staff of the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) and the Treasury’s Office of Tax Analysis each publish estimates of individual and corporate income tax expenditures. Sec. 3(3) of the Congressional Budgetand Impoundment Control Act of 1974 under 2 U.S.C. §622(3) (2006) defines tax expenditures as “those revenue losses attributable to provisions of the Federal tax laws which allow a special exclusion, exemption, or deduction from gross income or which provide a special credit, a preferential rate of tax, or a deferral of tax liability.”

1. To create sustainable customs revenue growth and respond to demand from National Geographic and the United Nations, the United States must close the loophole on energy export tax by replacing 26USC§4612(b) – ‘In addition, there is imposed a flat 5% energy export tax (feet) by the UN Arrears and Certain Iranian Assets Bill of 2020.’ under 26USC§7201. To pay for a third of expiring pandemic compensation beneficiaries without depleting the neglected DI trust fund, it is fiscally necessary to close the OASDI tax loophole for the rich and state employees beginning as soon as October 1, 2020 and no later than January 1, 2021 to pay for COVID-19 disabled workers and create an SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030 by repealing the Adjustment to Contribution Base at Sec. 230 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§430.

§73 Outlays

A. The Combined Statement overview of outlays is inadequate and the laborious understudy must be consistent with annual Cabinet agency congressional budget justifications, as is this one, and be summarized. As the result of neglecting to methodically tabulate outlays, the Office of Fiscal Services totally fails to enable OMB todistinguish between budget authority and interagency transfers that must be excluded from the President's budget and perpetuates the myths sustaining a 12 percent margin of error in the annual over-estimate of outlays by agency in Table 4.1 of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Historical Tables that greatly exceeds the tendency to overestimate revenue by about 2 percent. The Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 Pub. L.101–508, title XIII, §13501, Nov. 5, 1990, 104 Stat. 1388–628 defined the terms ‘‘budgetoutlays’’ and ‘‘outlays’’ to mean, with respect to any fiscal year, expenditures and net lending of funds under budget authority during such year under 2USC§622(1). Government outlays are responsible only for administrative and loan guaranty costs. All other [interagency transfers] and lending costs are [privately financed] and should not have any incidental effects on the tabulation of governmental receipts or outlays under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). The new Combined Statement outlay and undistributed offsetting receipt overview table must outlaw fictitious, interagency transfer, lending, etc. unoriginal outlays from the budget request as they do for the revenue by source category, for the edification of OMB Historical Table 4.1 Outlays by Agency. The Combined Statement must agree to the definition of undistributed offsetting receipts often called advanced appropriations – unspent funds remaining at the end of year that are used to reduce the deficit and pay the first obligations of the new year – and rename the undistributed offsetting receipt revenue category “earnings on investments”. CBO must cross-examine the outlays by agency and undistributed offsetting receipts table.

21

1. Before it is possible for the Combined Statement to begin adding Outlays by Agency pursuant to the regulation of Table 4.1 of the Historical Tables: Other Defense – Civil Programs, Other Independent Agencies (On-budget and Off-budget), Allowances, Off-budget Undistributed Offsetting Receipts, and new Infrastructure Initiative row, need to be excluded from the budget request or deleted. Department of State and International Assistance rows need to be added together by the State Department, whereas that is how they are reported, and International Assistance Programs row deleted. These outlay row falsely represent transfers of funds from agency to a sub-agency or another agency, if they exist at all. These rows must be deleted by OMB and excluded from the budget request by the Combined Statement. Overall Table 4.1 is historically about 12 percent overestimated and it is hoped to report the reduction in the margin of error in regards to overestimating outlays to 3 percent in order to ensure enough revenues collected and t-bonds sold to guarantee agencies balance available to pay inflation adjusted costs pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502.

2. The HELP Act provides, The terms ‘‘budget outlays’’ and ‘‘outlays’’ mean, with respect to any fiscal year, expenditures and net lending of funds under budget authority during such year under 2USC§622(1), to this should be appended:

(A) The term ‘‘on-budget outlays’’ means, with respect to any fiscal year, the President's budget, all the expenditures of the United States Government, except those for the Federal Old Age Survivor Disability Insurance Trust Funds, “referred to as off-budget outlays”, and the repayment of debt principal or negative subsidy revenues, excluded.

(B) The new Office of Fiscal Services Combined Statement outlay and undistributed offsetting receipt overview table must outlaw fictitious, interagency transfer, lending, etc.unoriginal outlays from the budget request as they do for the revenue by source category, for the edification of OMB Historical Table 4.1 Outlays by Agency. The Combined Statement must agree to the definition of undistributed offsetting receipts often called advanced appropriations – unspent funds remaining at the end of year that are used to reduce the deficit and pay the first obligations of the new year – and rename the undistributed offsetting receipt revenue category “earnings on investments”. CBO will then cross-examine the outlays by agency and undistributed offsetting receipts table under these new rules.

(C) Fictitious rows: off-budget offsetting receipts, Other Defense-Civil Programs, Allowances, On and Off Budget Independent Agencies, Off-budget Undistributed Offsetting Receipts, International Assistance Programs [added to State], and novel Infrastructure Improvement rows shall be deleted from OMB Table 4.1 and Bureau of Fiscal Services. To ensure there is a balance available for federal outlays, t-bond sales shall allow for up to a three percent margin of error more than scheduled expenditures pursuant to the Anti-deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502.

(E) Undistributed offsetting receipts are agency revenues remaining from the previous year, often called advanced appropriations, that are used to pay for the following year budget, to reduce outlays by the General Fund. Only five agency budget justifications produce reliable undistributed offsetting receipts, the Departments of Defense, Education,Health and Human Services, Interior and Corp of Engineers – Civil Programs. The annual tabulation of undistributed offsetting receipts is mathematically necessary to calculate total federal outlays and surplus / deficit. The Department of Agriculture has been saving money stolen from food stamps cuts in the Commodity Credit Corporation and does not produce undistributed offsetting receipts, nor make any additional “trade war” compensation payments, for that matter of concealing the proceeds of domestic program robbery. Elementary and Secondary Education and Medicaid declare Advance Appropriations in their budget tables, with explanation that these savings are used to pay for the difference between the school year and the fiscal year and to pay for the beginningof the next year medical claims. The Corp of Engineers – Civil Programs budget vacillates between the sound financial strategy of openly declaring precisely $1 billion in undistributed offsetting receipts and total incompetence, but having once made the declaration, predictably produces $1 billion undistributed offsetting receipts annually as the cornerstone of their federal outlay total. The Departments of Defense and Interior budgets are impaired by the failure to openly declare undistributed offsetting receipts in their budget overview. The Defense Department shall declare undistributed offsetting receipts with the difference between the congressional budget request and the total outlays of the three military departments – Air Force, Army and Navy. The Department of Interior turns a tidy profit in undistributed offsetting receipts, that must be declared to ensure payment of 2.5 percent growth for public land agencies and 3 percent for Indian Affairs programs.

29

(F) Usual federal spending inflation is estimated to grow 2.5 percent for government, 3 percent for services, education, minimum wage, cost-of-living adjustment, 3.3 percent forfood stamps, 4 percent for disability and child welfare and 5.5 percent for retirement annually. Any shortfall is due compensation for deprivation of relief under 18USC§246 pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020 and Art. 14 of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT)(1987).

B. A fundamental principle of the FY 21 budget is that persecutions regarding the number of the beast, should not last more than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). Department of Defense spending has been rapidly increasing 4.6 percent annually from $606 billion FY 17 to $718 billion FY 20 before declining to $705 billion FY 21 after which time normal three percent growth is anticipated. The prophecy underlying the COVID-19 pandemic economic depression is mostly that Treasury spending grew slowlyfrom $602 billion FY 18 to $666 FY 20. Having concealed the number of the beast in theaddition of discretionary and mandatory funding, they do not perform although the total is what is reported by OMB, Treasury spending was not projected to grow fast enough without justifying a $1.5 trillion Relief Act FY 21 driving up Treasury spending to an estimated $2,183 billion FY 21 with a will to achieve $700 billion in outlays FY 22. There are dozens of number of the beast settlements accelerating growth to make the leapfrom 6 to 7 in less 42 months, 3 ½ years. The cost is negligible in comparison with the happiness it brings to do this curse justice. The UN is burdened by an obese Secretary-General who has accursed the Peacekeeping with budget cuts from $7.8 billion 2016-2017 to $6.5 billion 2019-2020 and not published a budget for 2020-2021 in time for the June 30 fiscal year. Paying arrears bring State Department spending from $55.9 FY 20 to$66.6 billion FY 21 and with this head start and normal 2.5 percent growth is expected to reach $70 billion FY 23. Appropriation of hyper-inflationary Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) responsibilities to justify growth in excess of 3 percent annually by the US Marshal and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is expressed as a $6 billion budget for ICE aiming to abolish unwarranted deportation agency within 42 months.

1. It is necessary to abolish the unwarranted criminal agencies defending themselves by wastefully attempting to sanction the innocent pursuant to Art. 54 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949). To outlaw outlays right, it is necessary to redress the highest concentration of detainees in the world and unjust war by a reduction in force that seeks to terminate terrorism financing for unwarranted secret police forces, not indiscriminately impair 3 percent annual national defense spending growth. Police defunding is popular in many localities, force reduction must require police officers have at least a Bachelor degree to prevent recidivism 100 percent of court orders. 400 prominent economists and intellectuals petitioned the White House to legalize marijuana by repealing marijuana from Schedule I(c)(17) of the CSA under 21USC§812(c) and abolish drug enforcement. To abolish slavery while improvingsecurity despite the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from the Civil War, the US Marshall shall justify their increases in excess of 3 percent annually based upon the usurpation by the federal court of any legitimate responsibilities of the FBI (protecting only Uniform Crime Reports, National Forensic Laboratory and Police Academy), DEA (destroying the DEA stockpile and all drugs seized by the police, and terminating DEA Diversion Control if the Department of Health and Human Services does not want to

30

charge the biannual fee), ICE (shared with CBP), Interagency Drug and Crime Enforcement. To prevent terrorism it is necessary that federal criminal action, such as deportation, is warranted on an individual basis by a federal judge under Rule 4 Fed. Crim. P. The Authorization for employment of FBI and DEA Senior Executive Service under 5USC§3151-§3152 must be repealed. To stop corruption of the Attorney General, whereas the White House refuses to receive anymore Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) financing from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS),all such ONDCP financing by CMS shall be terminated. The FBI, with lethal norovirus coffee prior from 2016, and Department of Justice Health Care Fraud Enforcement is suspected of being the only agency who tortures with live coronavirus, during the course of their routine unwarranted breaking and entering (B&E) of Attorney General petitioners. The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy and judiciary Sentencing Commission also need to be abolished. The CIA (protecting the World Factbook), international military finance, international military education, international narcotic control and law enforcement and non-UN peacekeeping are to be completely abolished by the State Department. These monies from abolition can be used to reduce the deficit, however, they have not been abolished and the total savings do not need to be quantified until they have been terminated.

§74 Debt

A. When the federal government spends more than it takes in, the United States has to borrow money to cover that annual deficit. Each year’s deficit adds to the growing national debt. The federal government usually runs on a deficit, with some famous exceptions, such as when Andrew Jackson paid off the federal debt in 1835 and more recently when Bill Clinton turned a federal budget surplus in 1998-2000. The power of Congress to borrow money on the credit of the United States is conferred by the Constitution at Art. 1 Sec. 8 Cl. 2 and Sec. 4 of the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution. The Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union had granted to the Continental Congress the power to borrow money, or emit bills on the credit of the United States, transmitting every half-year to the respective States an account of the sumsof money so borrowed or emitted. Article I, Section 8, Clause 2 of the Constitution grantsto the United States Congress the power to borrow money on the credit of the United States. At the time that the Constitution came into effect, the United States had a significant debt, primarily associated with the Revolutionary War. The issue of the federal debt was next addressed by the Constitution within Section 4 of the Fourteenth Amendment (proposed on 13 June 1866 and ratified on 9 July 1868): whereby the validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. To eliminate Jim Crow it has been proposed to repeal all but Equal Protection Section One of the Fourteenth Amendment, without impairing Native American tax-exemptions or lawful public debt.

1. At the end of 2019, the Federal Reserve Banks held $2,113.3 billion of Federal securities and the rest of the public held $14,687.4 billion. Although the Fiscal Year 2021Budget does not declare any revenues whatsoever, the Office of Management and Budget(OMB) did an excellent job defending debt held by the public against overestimation, reducing the $23.9 trillion debt subject to statutory limitation outstanding at end of year 107.6% of GDP, to $16.0 trillion Debt Held by the Public Net of Financial Assets 71.9%

31

of the GDP in 2020. Congress has defended the $14,294 billion statutory debt limit, retracting the retirement of debt hypothesis, now subject to unspecified changes periodically made in that amount as provided by law through the congressional budget process under 31USC§3101. Legislation enacted August 2, 2019 (Public Law 116–37), temporarily suspends the debt limit through July 31, 2021. It would seem that Congress is retired from their leadership role in reducing the debt, having been replaced by OMB evidence to the same effect. Congress is obviously divided on whether they must now account for the high limit of debt subject to statutory limitation, although it produces an unacceptably high debt as % of GDP, or should continue to negotiate for debt held by public negotiation, or most advised repeal the 'may not be more than $14,294 billion' and insert 'is' after outstanding at one time. T-bonds are sold to federal trust funds before theyare sold to the public. The total Federal debt subject to limit includes trust fund reserves. Thus, as trust fund reserves are accumulated or redeemed, they are offset in the total Federal debt by securities issued to the public, with no net effect on the total Federal debt held by the public. Moreover, even in considering the Federal debt held by the public, there is no net direct effect on that debt from accumulating and then redeeming trust fund asset reserves.

B. Treasury securities held by the public and zero-coupon bonds held by Government accounts are almost all measured at sales price plus amortized discount or less amortized premium. Agency debt securities are almost all measured at face value. Treasury securities in the Government account series are otherwise measured at face value less unrealized discount (if any). A decrease in the Treasury operating cash balance (which isan asset) is a means of financing a deficit and therefore has a negative sign. An increase in checks outstanding (which is (Dollar amounts in billions) a liability) is also a means of financing a deficit and therefore also has a negative sign. Includes checks outstanding, accrued interest payable on Treasury debt, uninvested deposit fund balances, allocations of special drawing rights, and other liability accounts; and, as an offset, cash and monetary assets (other than the Treasury operating cash balance), other asset accounts, and profit on sale of gold. Statutory limited debt other than that held by the public Consists mainly of about $40 billion of debt issued annually by the Federal Financing Bank (which is not subject to limit), the unamortized discount (less premium) on public issues of Treasury notes and bonds (other than zero-coupon bonds), and the unrealized discount on Government account series securities.

1. Over the past two centuries, debt in excess of 90% of GDP has typically been associated with average growth of 1.7%, versus 3.7% when debt is low (under 30% of GDP). An international study, covering the experience of forty-four countries over two hundred years, found that economic growth slows substantially when national debt climbs over 90% of GDP. In 2009 the national debt of Greece reached 115% of GDP. Within a year the international markets refused to lend the Greek government any more money by buying its government bonds resulting in a trillion-dollar bailout financed by EU taxpayers. High debt loads make it more expensive to borrow and weakens global financial position. Economists at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) suggest that thepublic debt of the ten leading developed nations will rise from 78% of GDP in 2007 to 114% by 2014. These governments, including those in the United States and in many European nations, will by then owe around $50,000 for every one of their citizens. That translates into more than $10 trillion of extra debt accumulated in less than ten years.

34

The governments of rich nations never borrowed so much in peacetime. If current trends continue unchecked demographic pressures combined with political paralysis will send the combined public debt of the largest developed economies toward 200% of their GDP by 2030. The United States has averted this fate by re-estimating their $23.9 trillion debt subject to statutory limitation outstanding at end of year 107.6% of GDP to $16.0 trillion Debt Held by the Public Net of Financial Assets 71.9% of the GDP. By opting to devaluate to pay for the special issue and regular t-bonds financing the COVID-19 pandemic affected federal budget, the US and Europe may have discovered a free way to respond to irregular bailouts. Devaluation promises to sustain industrialized nation incomes and standards of living without any debt slavery to the International Monetary Fund in times of economic depression. Devaluation relieves the public of concern regarding the excessive accumulation of national debt during economic downturn(s) pursuant to the Marshal Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421 and 22USC§5301.

C. States, counties and municipalities also sell bonds to finance deficits. There was just over $3 trillion in state and local debt outstanding in the third quarter of 2017. State and local governments were estimated to have $3.043 trillion in debt issuances outstanding at the end of the third quarter in 2017. Total debt issuances have slowly increased in the past few years, but have been relatively flat since 2008, when debt outstanding equaled $2.968 trillion. Municipal debt outstanding increased from 2008 to 2010, which may have represented issuances used to cover unexpected shortfalls due to reduced revenues and increased expenditure demands following the Great Recession. Individuals and businesses lend their accumulated savings to borrowers. In exchange, borrowers give lenders a debt instrument. These debt instruments, typically called bonds, represent a promise by borrowers to pay interest income to lenders on the principal (the amount of money borrowed) until the principal is repaid to the lenders. State and local debt is issuedas bonds, to be repaid over a period of time greater than one year and perhaps exceeding 20 years, and as notes, to be repaid within one year. General obligation bonds are securedby the promise to repay with general tax revenue, and revenue bonds are secured with thepromise to use a specific stream of tax revenue. Most debt is issued to finance new capital facilities, but may also be used for cash management purposes when revenue collections do not match spending needs during the fiscal year. The federal government subsidizes the cost of most state and local debt by excluding the interest income from federal income taxation. The lower cost of capital arises because in most cases investors would be indifferent between taxable bonds (e.g., corporate bonds) that yield a 10% rate of return before taxes and tax-exempt bonds of equivalent risk that yield a 6.5% return. The taxable bond interest earnings carry a tax liability (35% of the interest income in most cases), making the after-tax return on the two bonds identical at 6.5%. Thus, state and local governments could raise capital from investors at an interest cost 3.5 percentagepoints (350 basis points) lower than a borrower issuing taxable debt.

1. The amount of forgone tax revenue from the exclusion of interest income on public-purpose tax-exempt bonds is substantial; $20.5 billion in 2016. Over the 2017 to 2026 budget window, the estimated loss of revenue is expected to be $422.8 billion, or the 15th largest tax expenditure. P.L. 115-97, the 2017 tax revision, repealed the authority to issue tax credit bonds (TCBs) in lieu of interest payments beginning in 2018. Many tax-exempt revenue bonds are issued for activities Congress has classified as private because most of the benefits from the activities appear to be enjoyed by private individuals and businesses. The annual volume of a subset of these tax-exempt private-activity bonds

35

(PABs) is capped. The 2017 tax revision (P.L. 115-97) repealed the exclusion of interest income on advance refunding bonds issued after December 31, 2017. The proceeds of the refunding bonds are used to pay off the remaining principal of the original bond issue,which is retired. Advance refunding bonds, however, do add to the outstanding stock of bonds without adding to the stock of capital. Advance refunding bonds are issued prior tothe date on which the original bonds are refunded, so that for a period of time there are two bond issues outstanding to finance the same capital facilities. Arbitrage bonds devote a substantial share of the proceeds to the purchase of assets with higher interest rates than that being paid on the tax-exempt bonds. Such arbitrage bonds are not tax exempt because Congress does not want state and local governments to issue tax-exempt bonds and use the proceeds to earn arbitrage profits. An important characteristic of tax-exempt bonds is the purpose or activity for which the bonds are issued. Most of the tax legislation pertaining to tax-exempt bonds over the last 30 years reflects an effort to restrict tax preferences to bonds issued for activities that satisfy some broadly defined “public” purpose, that is, for which federal taxpayers are likely to receive substantial benefits. Bonds are considered to be for a public purpose if they satisfy either of two criteria: less than 10% of the proceeds are used directly or indirectly by a non-governmental entity; or less than 10% of the bond proceeds are secured directly or indirectly by property used in a trade or business. Bonds that satisfy either of these tests are termed “governmental” bonds and can be issued without federal limit. Bonds that fail both of these tests are termed “private-activity” bonds (PABs) because they provide significant benefits to private individuals or businesses.

2. As part of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (P.L. 107-16), a new type of tax-exempt private-activity bond was created beginning on January 1, 2002. The act expanded the definition of “an exempt facility bond” to include bonds issued for qualified public educational facilities. Bonds issued for qualified educational facilities are not counted against a state’s private-activity volume cap. However, the qualified public educational facility bonds have their own volume capacity limit equal to the greater of $10 multiplied by the state population or $5 million. The Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002 (JCWA; P.L. 107-147) created the New York Liberty Zone (NYLZ) in the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The legislation included several tax benefits for the NYLZ intended to foster economic revitalization within the NYLZ. Specifically, the so-called “Liberty Bond” program allows New York State (in conjunction and coordination with New York City) to issue up to $8 billion of tax-exempt private activity bonds for qualified facilities in the NYLZ. Qualified facilities follow the exempt facility rules within Section 142 of the IRC. The original deadline to issue the bonds was January 1, 2005, but was extended to January 1, 2014, by the American Taxpayer Relief Act (P.L. 112-240).

3. In 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act (P.L. 108-357) created bonds for “qualified green building and sustainable design projects.” The bonds are exempt from the state volume cap and are instead limited to an aggregate of $2 billion for bonds issued betweenJanuary 1, 2005, and October 1, 2009. The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity Act of 2005 created a new type of tax-exempt private activity bondfor the construction of rail to highway (or highway to rail) transfer facilities. The nationallimit is $15 billion and the bonds are not subject to state volume caps for private activity bonds. the “Gulf Opportunity Zone Act of 2005” (GOZA 2005, P.L. 109-135) contained two provisions that expanded the amount of private-activity bonds outstanding and

36

language to relax the eligibility rules for mortgage revenue bonds. The most significant isthe provision that increased the volume cap for private-activity bonds issued for Hurricane Katrina recovery in Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi (identified as the Gulf Opportunity Zone, or “GO Zone”). GOZA 2005 added $2,500 per person in the federally declared Katrina disaster areas in which the residents qualified for individual and public assistance. The increased volume capacity added approximately $2.2 billion for Alabama, $7.8 billion for Louisiana, and $4.8 billion for Mississippi in aggregate overfive years.

4. In response to the housing crisis of 2008, Congress included two provisions in the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA; P.L. 110-289) that were intended to assist the housing sector. First, HERA provided that interest on qualified private activity bonds issued for (1) qualified residential rental projects, (2) qualified mortgage bonds, and (3) qualified veterans’ mortgage bonds would not be subject to the AMT. In addition, HERA also created an additional $11 billion of volume cap space for bonds issued for qualified mortgage bonds and qualified bonds for residential rental projects. Inresponse to the financial crisis and economic recession, Congress included several bond related provisions in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA; P.L.111-5). Three provisions were intended to make bond finance less expensive for the designated projects. One expanded the definition of qualified manufacturing facilities (under §144(a)(12)(C)) to include the creation and production of intangible property including patents, copyrights, formulae, etc. Before ARRA, only tangible property was eligible. The second created a new category of private activity bond called “recovery zone facility bonds.” The bonds were to be used for investment in infrastructure, job training, education, and economic development in economically distressed areas. The bonds, which were subject to a separate national cap of $15 billion, were allocated to the states based on the decline in employment in 2008. The bonds were eligible to be issued in 2009 and 2010. A third provision provided $2 billion for tribal governments to issue tax-exempt bonds for economic development purposes. The tax code currently allows tribal governments to issue debt for “essential government services” only.

§75 Gross Domestic Product

A. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a measure of national production. Gross domestic product (GDP) at market prices = Final consumption expenditure / actual final consumption + changes in inventories + gross fixed capital formation + acquisitions less disposals of valuables + exports of goods and services - imports of goods and services in table 2.4 at Section 2.222 of the System of National Accounts (SNA) developed in 1993. Levels of GDP or, alternatively, gross national income (GNI) per head in different countries are also used by international organizations to determine eligibility for loans, aid or other funds or to determine the terms or conditions on which such loans, aid or funds are made available. When the objective is to compare the volumes of goods or services produced or consumed per head, data in national currencies must be converted into a common currency by means of purchasing power parities and not exchange rates. The level of production is important because it largely determines how much a country can afford to consume and it also affects the level of employment.

1. The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) describes Gross domestic product (GDP) as the value of the goods and services produced by the nation’s economy less the value of

37

the goods and services used up in production. GDP is also equal to the sum of personal consumption expenditures, gross private domestic investment, net exports of goods and services, and government consumption expenditures and gross investment. Gross domestic income (GDI) is the sum of incomes earned and costs incurred in the productionof GDP. In national economic accounting, GDP and GDI are conceptually equal. In practice, GDP and GDI differ because they are constructed using largely independent source data. Real GDI is calculated by deflating gross domestic income using the GDP price index as the deflator and is therefore conceptually equivalent to real GDP. Current-dollar estimates are valued in the prices of the period when the transactions occurred—that is, at "market value." Some of the estimates in the integrated national accounts tablesprepared to comply with the SNA differ from the official estimates that are published in the NIPAs and FAUS due to conceptual differences.

2. SNA is the system used for reporting to international or supranational organizations national accounts data that conform to standard, internationally accepted concepts, definitions and classifications. The resulting data are widely used for international comparisons of the volumes of major aggregates, such as GDP or GDP per head, and alsofor comparisons of structural statistics, such as ratios of investment, taxes or government expenditures to GDP. Such comparisons are used by economists, journalists and other analysts to evaluate the performance of one economy against that of other similar economies. They can influence popular and political judgments about the relative success of economic programs in the same way as developments over time within a single country. Databases consisting of sets of national accounts for groups of countries can also be used for econometric analyses in which time-series and cross-section data are pooled to provide a broader range of observations for the estimation of functional relationships. Useful as they are as a source of information for anybody in charge with macroeconomic governance tasks, National Accounts can also be misused in the context of governance.

3. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is a measure of production that co-exists in reciprocitywith the lesser known Gross Domestic Income (GDI) consumption statistic. The consumption of goods and services, both individually and collectively, is one of the most important factors influencing the welfare of a community, but it is only one of several factors. There are also others, such as epidemics, natural disasters, wildfire or wars that can have major negative impacts on welfare, while others, such as scientific discoveries, inventions or simply good weather, may have significant positive impacts. Due to insurance, the most scientific negative factors are a negative balance of international trade or federal deficit, otherwise it takes market failure to reduce economic growth to less than 3%. In the past decade GDP and GNI have become equal. GNI is equal to GDP less taxes (less subsidies) on production and imports, compensation of employees and property income payable to the rest of the world plus the corresponding items receivable from the rest of the world. Thus GNI at market prices is the sum of gross primary incomes receivable by residents. It is worth noting that GNI at market prices was called gross national product in the 1953 SNA, and it is commonly denominated GNP. In contrast to GDP, GNI is not a concept of value added, but a concept of income (primary income). Gross national disposable income is equal to GNI at market prices. Gross national disposable income measures the income available to the nation for final consumption and gross saving. National disposable income is the sum of disposable income of all residents. GDP plus income receipts from rest of world, less income

38

payments to rest of world equals Gross National Product (GNP). GNP less consumption of fixed capital and statistical discrepancy equals Gross National Income (GNI)..

B. Before the COVID-19 economic growth United States GDP estimate was dominated by projections of the UN World Economic Situation and Prospects 2019 the economy would decelerate from 2.8 percent in the third quarter of 2018, to 2.5 percent in 2019 and 2 percent in 2020. BEA reported real GDP increased 2.3 percent in 2019 from the 2018, compared with an increase of 2.9 percent in 2018. BEA reported current-dollar GDP increased 4.1 percent, or $848.8 billion, in 2019 to a level of $21.43 trillion, compared with an increase of 5.4 percent, or $1,060.8 billion, in 2018. The Summary Tables of the Budget of the US Government for Fiscal Year 2021 perpetuates the 2018-2019 GDP dispute by dividing estimates between low real GPD estimates and extraordinarily high rates of 'nominal' GDP growth. BEA GDP estimates recognize for the period of expansion from the second quarter of 2009 through the fourth quarter of 2019, real GDP increased at an annual rate of 2.3 percent. The BEA has only partially compensated for their high 3 percent 2018 economic growth rate, reduced to 2.8 percent by the UN, with alow 2.2 percent 2019 growth rate. Whereas the UN has estimated a -5 percent economic growth rate that is accepted as the base estimate for the economic decline causes by the COVID-19 pandemic, this means that according to high BEA GDP estimate the economycontracted -08.4 percent in 2020. Not to perpetuate the stressful 'fake news' and unaccountable 'trade war' of the US Administration 2017-2020, known to overestimate Customs revenues, and not report country by country US trade statistics, the settlement seems to be to accept UN estimates of US GDP for the years of 2018-2019 and -5 percentdecline in 2020 with usual 2.5 percent growth in 2021 and afterwards.

1. Steady growth of 2.0 percent was projected for the European Union, although risks are tilted to the downside, including potential fallout from Brexit. Growth in China was expected to moderate from 6.6 percent in 2018 to 6.3 percent in 2019, with policy supportpartly offsetting the negative impact of trade tensions. Global economic growth was expected to remain steady at 3 percent in 2019 and 2020, after an expansion of 3.1 percent in 2018. Economic growth accelerated in more than half the world’s economies in both 2017 and 2018. Developed economies expanded at a steady pace of 2.2 percent inboth years, and growth rates in many countries have risen close to their potential, while unemployment rates in several developed economies have dropped to historical lows. Among the developing economies, the regions of East and South Asia remain on a relatively strong growth trajectory, expanding by 5.8 percent and 5.6 percent respectivelyin 2018. Several large commodity-exporting countries, such as Brazil, Nigeria and the Russian Federation, had hoped to see a moderate pickup in growth in 2019–2020, albeit from a low base. Brazil was amongst the nations who were reported to have devaluated their currency to avoid economic downturn in 2019 by 2020 Revised estimates: effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General A/74/585 of 11 December 2019. Economic growth was reported to be uneven and often failing to reach where it is most needed. Per capita incomes were expected to stagnate or grow onlymarginally in 2019 in several parts of Africa, Western Asia, and Latin America and the Caribbean. Even where per capita growth is strong, economic activity is often driven by core industrial and urban regions, leaving peripheral and rural areas behind. Eradicating poverty by 2030 will require both double-digit growth in Africa and steep reductions in income inequality.

2. By the start of 2018, the stock portion of investment portfolios swelled to 63%, the highest level in decades. Vanguard, the $5 trillion asset management firm, warned that the chances of a recession by the end of 2020 were mounting. The prospects for the American stock market in the next decade have worsened appreciably. Vanguard said thechances of a recession by late 2020 were between 30% and 40%. A six-month forecast reported a greater than 40% probability before the recession that started in December 2007. The recession projection is based largely on interest rate expectations using two criteria. One is what economists refer to as a flattening yield curve, with the Federal Reserve expected to raise shorter-term rates faster than longer-term ones, and Congress working overtime to compensate for most budget cuts but allowing budgets threats to continue into the future. The other is rising credit risk for below-investment-grade bonds. The 10-year outlook, for example, includes lower projected annualized returns, but still positive ones, for these two stock categories: United States stocks expected a 10-year return of 3.9%, annualized, down from a projection of an 8% annualized return, made in March 2013. This is eerily similar to the reduction of 8% individual income tax revenue growth to under 3% by the TCJA. Stocks from markets outside the United States, 6.5%, annualized, down from 8.7% in 2013. The Payroll Protection Program (PPP) loan fraud is an example of a $666 billion below-investment grade bond, that could have guaranteedprivate payroll loans, but in response to demand, promised that the federal government would pay 100 percent. The PPP junk bond is large enough to withdraw all >$250 billionfree investment capital, not including the $300 billion tax rebate that crippled the excessive $250 billion pandemic compensation program and $250 billion loan to state unemployment compensation programs to cover the cost of extended benefits.

3. Current - dollar GDP decreased 34.3 percent, or $2.15 trillion, in the second quarter of 2020 to a level of $19.41 trillion. In the first quarter, GDP decreased 3.4 percent, or $186.3 billion. After six months of decline, the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic are considered an economic depression. Real gross domestic product (GDP) decreased at an annual rate of 32.9 percent in the second quarter of 2020, according to the “advance” estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis. In thefirst quarter of 2020, real GDP decreased 5.0 percent. The decline in second quarter GDPreflected the response to COVID-19, as "stay-at-home" orders issued in March and April were partially lifted in some areas of the country in May and June, and government pandemic assistance payments were distributed to households and businesses. The decrease in real GDP reflected decreases in personal consumption expenditures (PCE), exports, private inventory investment, nonresidential fixed investment, residential fixed investment, and state and local government spending that were partly offset by an increase in federal government spending. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, decreased. Consumer spending collapsed at a 34.6 percent annualized pace in the second quarter. That led GDP to plunge at a 32.9 percent rate last quarter, the deepest decline in output since the government started keeping records in 1947. Though motor vehicle sales fell in July, manufacturers continued to ramp up production, boosting output at the nation’s factories, a third report from the Federal Reserve showed. Manufacturing production rose 3.4 percent in July after surging 7.4 percent in June. Still, the third straight monthly gain left factory output about 8 percent below its level in February. The price index for gross domestic purchases decreased 1.5 percent in the second quarter, in contrast to an increase of 1.4 percent in the first quarter. The PCE price index decreased 1.9 percent, in contrast to an increase of 1.3 percent. Excluding food and energy prices, the PCE price index decreased 1.1 percent, in contrast

40

to an increase of 1.6 percent. Bureau of Labor Statistics consumer price index (CPI) inflation has been estimated at 0.6 percent.

4. Retail sales rose 7.5% in June after jumping 18.2% in May, which was the biggest gainsince the government started tracking the series in 1992. Retail sales in June were driven by a 8.2 percent increase in receipts at auto dealerships. Sales at service stations jumped 15.3 percent, boosted by higher gasoline prices. Receipts at electronics and appliance stores increased 37.4 percent. Sales at clothing stores vaulted 105.1 percent. Sales at furniture stores advanced 32.5 percent. Receipts at restaurants and bars shot up 20.0 percent and spending at hobby, musical instrument and book stores increased 26.5 percent. But online and mail-order retail sales fell 2.4 percent. Sales at building material stores dipped 0.3 percent and receipts at grocery stores fell 1.6 percent. Stocks on Wall Street opened lower amid worries about the sky-rocketing coronavirus cases. The dollar was steady against a basket of currencies. U.S. Treasury prices rose. Excluding

41

automobiles, gasoline, building materials and food services, retail sales rose 5.6 percent in June after increasing 10.1 percent in May. Economists expect consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of U.S. economic activity, could decline at as much as a 37 percent annualized rate in the second quarter. That could result in GDP falling at around a 36 percent pace in that period. The economy shrank at a 5 percent pacein the January-March quarter, the sharpest contraction since the 2007-2009 Great Recession. The COVID-19 pandemic is most severe economic contraction since the Great Depression. Millions are set to lose their unemployment checks on July 31 when the government stops paying an additional $600 per week to jobless self-employed people, gig workers and contractors who do not qualify for regular state unemployment benefits. Economists have warned the end of these checks would undercut retail sales andoverall consumer spending.

5. Sales increased 2.7 percent from a year ago, while job growth slowed in July. About 28.3 million people are on unemployment benefits. Relief acts and low consumer price inflation should help consumer sales to rebound in the third quarter, but the termination of $600 weekly pandemic compensation benefits July 31 is expected to cut phenomenal growth in income and consumer spending by third quarter, when the economy is expectedto stabilize, provided the US dollar is devaluated before October 1 and news media prescribes Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP). Extended

unemployment benefits and disability insurance should sustain retail sale growth in September, while employment slowly recovers from the consequences of stay at home orders. The third straight monthly gain lifted retail sales to their highest level since the government started tracking the series in 1992. It supported the view that consumer spending would rebound, after a record collapse in the second quarter. Economists attributed the increase in retail sales over the past three months to a $600 weekly unemployment benefits supplement from the government, which amounted to almost $75billion in July. The supplement ended on July 31, leaving economists to expect a decline in retail sales in August before stabilizing in September. Retail sales rose 1.2 percent in July after advancing 8.4 percent in June. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast saleswould rise 1.9 percent in July. The slowdown in retail sales in July was led by a 1.2 percent decline in receipts at auto dealerships. That followed a 6.1 percent acceleration in June. Consumers also cut back spending at hobby, musical instrument and book stores as well as at building materials outlets. Purchases at electronics and appliance stores soared 22.9 percent in July, likely reflecting strong demand as many Americans work from home. Receipts at restaurants and bars increased 5.0 percent, though the pace slowed from the 26.7 percent increase noted in June. Online and mail-order retail sales rebounded 0.7 percent. Furniture store sales were flat. Receipts at clothing stores increased 5.7 percent. Excluding automobiles, gasoline, building materials and food services, retail sales increased 1.4 percent in July after soaring 6.0 percent in June.

6. Current-dollar personal income increased $1.39 trillion in the second quarter, an extra trillion dollars, compared with a usual increase of $193.4 billion in the first quarter. Personal income is certain to decrease in the third quarter with the termination of the $600 weekly pandemic compensation benefit on July 31. The increase in personal income in the second quarter is accounted for by an increase in personal current transfer receipts (notably, government social benefits) that was partly offset by declines in compensation and proprietors' income. Disposable personal income increased $1.53 trillion, or 42.1 percent, in the second quarter, compared with an increase of $157.8 billion, or 3.9 percent, in the first quarter. Real disposable personal income increased 44.9percent, compared with an increase of 2.6 percent. Personal outlays decreased $1.57 trillion, after decreasing $232.5 billion. The decrease in outlays was led by a decrease in PCE for services. Personal saving was $4.69 trillion in the second quarter, compared with usual $1.59 trillion in the first quarter. The personal saving rate—personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income—was 25.7 percent in the second quarter, compared with 9.5 percent in the first quarter.

7. Artificially high income, retail spending and savings rates are certain to decline in the third quarter, after the July 31 expiration of the $600 weekly pandemic compensation expires. Even in many high-income countries, a significant proportion of the population do not have enough financial wealth to live beyond the national poverty line for three months, causing many to fear for their economic security. In hard-hit Italy and Spain, an estimated 27 per cent and 40 per cent of the population, respectively, do not have enough savings to allow themselves not to work for more than three months, even if they are onlyliving at the poverty line; and the number is an alarming 39 per cent for the OECD average. In the United States, nearly 40 per cent of households cannot pay for a $400 unexpected expense without borrowing or selling off some of their assets. Prolonged restrictions on economic activities—and the risk of losing jobs and income—would exacerbate pervasive economic insecurity and further erode the already-declining public trust in institutions, including multilateral organizations. Low public trust could undermine governments’ efforts to quickly contain the virus, heightening the sense of economic insecurity among a large segment of the population. Hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint (HELP) cure coronavirus and mold allergies. It is necessary that restrooms are reopened with medicinal soaps containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint so the public can wash their noses and the pandemic will be cured for free.

C. World Economic Situations and Prospects April 2020 Briefing No. 136 finds that before the outbreak of COVID-19, world output was expected to expand at a modest paceof 2.5 per cent. Taking into account rapidly changing economic conditions, UN DESA’s World Economic Forecasting Model estimated in April 1.7 percent best and -0.9 percent worst-case scenarios for global growth in 2020 if restriction on economic activity end by third quarter. It is now the third quarter and although some restrictions have been lifted, others remain in place, the pandemic rages on. With Europe and the United States declaring a -33 percent contraction in the second quarter, there is no denying economic depression has set in, after six months of recession. Most recent UN estimates pessimistically predict a -10 percent decline in economic activity for the entire 2020 year from 2019 levels. Although affluenza disparately affects industrialized economies, if they work quickly to end the pandemic by prescribing cheap, safe and effective Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) to cure coronavirus and mold allergies, they should be able to limit economic decline to -5 percent from 2019. In April COVID-19 was estimated to slash global economic output by $8.5 trillion over nexttwo years. The report estimated that GDP growth in developed economies was expected to plunge to -5.0 percent in 2020 if the pandemic ended in six months. Because the US bailout put $1.5 trillion into circulation, 70 percent of the $2.15 trillion loss, a -5 percent decline in GDP seems fair FY 20. The COVID-19 pandemic exhibits the highest level ofunemployment since the Great Depression, four times as many the financial crisis of the Great Recession incurred a -1.7 percent decline in GWP in 2009. For the period of expansion from the second quarter of 2009 through the fourth quarter of 2019, real GDP increased at an annual rate of 2.3 percent. Usually the GWP grows at a rate of 3.4 percent growth, less for the US 2.4 percent and EU 2.0 percent – insufficient to make up for the lost output – is expected in 2021.

1. The scenario is based on demand-side shocks of different magnitudes to China, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the United States and the EU, as well as an oil price decline to a low of 50 per cent against a baseline of US$ 61 per barrel. It assumes that wide-ranging restrictions on economic activities in the EU and the United States would extend until themiddle of the second quarter. Global growth could plunge even further if restrictions on movements and economic activities in these economies would extend beyond the second quarter. The world economy contracted by 1.7 per cent during the global financial crisis in 2009. The severity of the economic impact will largely depend on two factors: (1) the duration of restrictions on the movement of people and economic activities in major economies; and (2) the actual size and efficacy of fiscal responses to the crisis. A well-designed fiscal stimulus package, prioritizing health spending to contain the spread of thevirus and providing income support to households most affected by the pandemic would reduce the depth of the economic depression. To start seeing normal economic growth inthe fourth quarter, after two quarters of decline and a third quarter and new year, with declining relief, mitigated by disability insurance for a third of pandemic and extended unemployment compensation beneficiaries, it is essential that health care providers and government officials end the debt crisis by devaluating to offset the one-time cost of COVID-19 relief, and psychological medical crisis of the pandemic gag order regrading there not being treatment for coronavirus, by informing the public Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) cure coronavirus and mold allergies.

2. Growing restrictions on the movement of people and lockdowns in Europe and North America are hitting the service sector hard, particularly industries that involve physical interactions such as retail trade, leisure and hospitality, recreation and transportation services. Collectively, they account for more than a quarter of all jobs in these economies. As businesses lose revenue, unemployment is likely to increase sharply, transforming a supply-side shock to a wider demand-side shock for the economy. The severity of the economic impact largely depends on whether the duration of restrictions on the movement of people and economic activities in major economies lasts less than sixmonths to qualify as an economic depression and on the actual size and efficacy of fiscal responses to the crisis. According to the report, a well-designed fiscal stimulus package, prioritizing health spending to contain the spread of the virus and providing income support to households most affected by the pandemic would help to minimize the likelihood of a deep economic recession. Policy measures are needed, not only to containthe pandemic and save lives, but also to protect the most vulnerable in society from economic ruin of their standard of living and to sustain economic growth and financial stability. The adverse effects of prolonged restrictions on economic activities in developed economies will soon spill over to developing countries via trade and investment channels. A sharp decline in consumer spending in the European Union and the United States will reduce imports of consumer goods from developing countries. World output could contract further if imposed restrictions on economic activities extend beyond the third quarter of the year and if fiscal responses fail to support income and consumer spending.

3. Several automobile companies have announced large-scale production suspensions in Europe and the United States. Many firms worldwide—particularly in the automobile, consumer electronics, and telecommunications industries—are facing shortages of intermediate components as exports from China contracted at an annual pace of 17.2 per cent in the first two months of 2020. Developing countries with highly concentrated

46

trade exposures to the EU and the United States are particularly vulnerable to growth downturns in these two economies. For example, nearly 90 per cent of exports from CaboVerde and São Tomé and Príncipe are destined for Europe. For Morocco and Tunisia, it is over 60 per cent. If demand from the EU falls, these economies will suffer significant downturns. The same is true for the Dominican Republic, Haiti or Mexico, with more than half of their exports destined to one country—the United States.

4. Developing countries, particularly those dependent on tourism and commodity exports,face heightened economic risks. The sudden stop in tourist arrivals will hurt the tourism sector in small island developing States (SIDS) that employs millions of low-skilled workers. And the decline in commodity-related revenues and a reversal of capital flows are increasing the likelihood of debt distress for many commodity-dependent economies. Governments may be forced to curtail public expenditure at a time when they need to ramp up spending to contain the pandemic and support consumption and investment. Thepandemic is disproportionately hurting millions of lower-wage workers in service sectors,who often lack labour protections and work in close physical proximity to others. Absent adequate income support, many will fall into poverty, even in most developed economies,worsening already high levels of income inequality. The effect of school closures could make the educational divide more pronounced, with possible long-term consequences.

5. With nearly 100 countries closing national borders, the movement of people and tourism flows have come to a screeching halt. Millions of workers in these countries are facing the bleak prospect of losing their jobs. Governments have rolled out large stimulus packages to avert a sharp downturn of their economies which could potentially plunge the global economy into a deep economic depression. As a growing number of countries close their borders, travels—both domestic and international—have come to a standstill. In February, China’s air passenger traffic fell by 84.5 per cent on a year-on-year basis, while Sri Lanka and Viet Nam saw tourist arrivals contract by double-digits relative to February last year. More prolonged restrictions on international travel could severely hurt developing economies that are highly reliant on tourism as a source of foreign exchange revenue. In the Bahamas, Cabo Verde, Maldives and Vanuatu, tourism accounts for nearly 20 per cent of GDP and nearly 60 per cent of their foreign exchange earnings. Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) account for 80 per cent of the global tourism sector which employs approximately 123 million people worldwide. Many tourism-dependent countries rely heavily on tourist arrivals from a particular country—the United States, for example—as in the case of many Caribbean economies. These economies would experience sharp increases in unemployment rates, affecting the livelihood of low-skilled workers and the more vulnerable segments of society that depend on income from tourism-related industries.

6. The recent collapse in global commodity prices is compounding the bleak fiscal outlook for many commodity-exporting economies, many of which have not fully recovered from the after-effects of the sharp commodity price decline in 2014–2016. As world demand weakens amid widening travel restrictions, oil prices have fallen to the lowest level in nearly two decades. Production disagreements between the Russian Federation and Saudi Arabia are adding to high uncertainty in the global oil market. For many non-oil commodity-dependent economies, the decline in commodity-related revenues and a reversal of capital flows are increasing the likelihood of debt distress. Particularly at risk are commodity exporters with high levels of external debt. Mongolia,

47

a commodity-dependent economy with 90 per cent of its exports going to China, has an external debt-to-GDP ratio of over 220 per cent of its GDP. The Republic of Congo, Mauritania and Mozambique—all commodity dependent economies—have similarly high levels of external debt. Growing debt distress—and likelihood of a debt crisis—could force many governments to sharply curtail public expenditure at a time when they need to ramp up spending to contain the pandemic and support consumption and investment. Devaluation provides industrialize nations with the opportunity to pay for their relief acts, without any withdrawals from the stock exchange to pay for bonds in excess of 3 percent of GDP. Devaluation should conclude the pandemic financial crisis and create a larger and more equitable US dollar Gross World Product (GWP).

7. The pandemic will have differentiated employment and income effects, even in most developed economies. Evidence suggests that those at the lower end of the income distribution will suffer the most. Lower-income workers tend to enjoy less labour market protection —a considerable share of them work in informal sectors where protection is minimal; and even for those in the formal sectors, many are paid by the hour, with typically little or no paid sick leave. Furthermore, a high share of lower-income workers is employed in industries that are most affected by the pandemic, such as retail sales and food service industries, which require close physical proximity to others. In the case of the United States, over a quarter of jobs require workers to work at arm’s length of others, and a vast majority of them are lower-wage jobs. The unfortunate combination of subpar labour market protection and close physical proximity to others means lower-wage workers are disproportionately harmed by the pandemic, in terms of both economic and health outcomes. The vicious cycle between low socio-economic status and high health risk could exacerbate the high levels of income inequality in many countries. To continue to provide benefits for the poorest third of pandemic and extended unemployment compensation beneficiaries the United States must close the loopholes forthe rich and state employees in social security contributions and energy export tax in order to pay disability insurance benefits to COVID-19 disabled workers and delaying full funding of child SSI benefits to end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030.

8. Central banks across developed and developing countries have moved aggressively to help stave off the crisis, slashing interest rates, injecting liquidity and providing emergency funding for firms and households. Since the outbreak of the crisis, about 60 different monetary authorities have cut their policy rates, often at emergency meetings. The US Federal Reserve Bank (Fed) lowered its target rate by 150 basis points to 0.0–0.25 per cent, while the Bank of England cut its rate by 50 basis points to 0.25 per cent. Emerging market central banks, especially in East Asia, Western Asia and Latin America, also implemented rate cuts. In addition, major central banks boosted liquidity inthe financial systems and restarted (Fed) or expanded (European Central Bank, Bank of Japan) their asset purchase programs. While interest rate cuts and asset purchases can send important market signals, they will do little to stimulate economic activity in the short run. Central bank actions, however, still ease financial stress, ensure a continued functioning of financial markets, and provide loans for businesses and households affected by the crisis. Once the social restrictions are lifted and market confidence returns, a prolonged period of very low interest rates could help support economic recovery. Importantly, medium-term monetary policy strategies will need to be aligned with new fiscal realities, including large deficits and higher debt levels, unless the US and

48

EU devaluate their currencies to print out their relief acts and debts, to try and conclude the COVID-19 pandemic painlessly.

9. Given the severity of the crisis and the limited effectiveness of monetary policy actions, many governments, especially in East Asia and in developed countries, have announced large stimulus packages to address the health, economic and social impacts of the pandemic. They are primarily targeted at enhancing capacities of national health sectors to ensure the availability of medical supplies, free and aggressive COVID-19 testing and enhanced healthcare coverage, and funding for research and development of vaccines and treatments. At the same time, fiscal policy measures are aiming to expand paid sick leave and family leave, mitigating income losses with direct and indirect cash-transfers and preventing business closures and bankruptcies. In the United States, only 74per cent of all workers have paid sick leave and only 45 per cent have paid personal/family leave. Direct wage or income support measures can play an important role in limiting the socio-economic effects in the short run, however, devaluation is necessary to preserve the capacity to recover promptly. Such measures include tax deferrals, government-subsidized short-term work schemes, moratoriums on mortgage payments and direct cash payments. Importantly, social protection programs need to reach the most in need during the crisis, with a focus on the elderly and those in vulnerable employment. During the global financial crisis, a one-time stimulus payment, for example, was apparently more effective than payroll tax cuts at boosting consumptionin the United States. The stimulus payment, although appreciated by low-income personsthis time, drives up the cost of legally necessary unemployment compensation benefits beyond to point the depressed market economy can bear without collapse or devaluation. The government must limit their interventions to act as a “payer of last resort”, converting special unemployment insurance benefits to disability benefits for idle workers and providing financing for businesses. Many multilateral entities, including theIMF and World Bank have already made significant resources available to support countries that face significant resource constraints and challenges in dealing with the fallout of the pandemic. It is high time they spend their money on $1 tubes hydrocortisone crème and $10 bottles essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint(HELP).

10. The global community is best served if the World Health Organization prescribes hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint (HELP) to cure coronavirus and moldallergies; Oseltamivir (Tamiflu), Zanamivir (Relenza) or Amantadine (Symmetrel) to cure influenza; and INH and rifampin, or INH, rifampin and ethambutol with or without pyrazinamide to cure tuberculosis and non-tubercular mycobacterial disease. Because of the cure for coronavirus is as cheap as an Epsom salt bath for methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) it very interesting to determine from post-COVID-19 pandemic country by country economic growth statistics, if “affluenza” disparately impacts industrialized nation economies by preventing the public from being prescribed hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint (HELP) .

D. National accounts are the main source of information about the state of the economy. Their data serve as input for growth predictions and business cycle forecasts, which are usually made with the help of intricate econometric models and techniques. Also, medium-term budgeting is typically done within the framework of National Accounts. Philosophy regarding the calculating of national accounts is attributed to have been

49

founded by William Petty (1623-1687), whom Marx lauded as ‘father of Political Economy, and to some extent the founder of Statistics’, who was the first to provide rough estimates of ‘national income’ in his Political Arithmetick that appeared in print posthumously in 1690. This remarkable work is considered crucial for national accounting up to the present day. Not only does Petty acknowledge that ‘The Labour of the People’ is the source of national income, which is echoed in modern ‘Production Accounts’, but he also estimates the division of national income between wages, rents, interest, and profit; and opposes this with the disposition of income by giving an estimate of annual domestic consumption expenses. For the next two hundred years, progress in national accounting was slow.

1. François Quesnay’s Tableau économique (of 1766) envisaged exchanges in an economy as a circular flow, was a precursor of later Input- Output-Tables that now form a part of National Accounts. Also, there was an important contribution coming from Adam Smith who, in The Wealth of Nations (1776), laid emphasis on productive activities that ‘fix themselves’ in commodities rather than services. This concept was later adopted by Karl Marx (although the theory of the latter, in principle, does not preclude the provision of services from being productive as long as it is organized along capitalist lines and thus yields surplus value) and became the basis of the ‘Material Product System’ of National Accounts prevalent in the Soviet Union and other communist countries – even in France, for some time. It was only later under the influence of Alfred Marshall that production was fully understood to include the provision of services; and this concept was adopted by the United Nations in their recommendations for compiling National Accounts.

2. Two incidents fostered the final breakthrough of national accounting: first, J. M. Keynes’s General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (1936) encouraged thinking in terms of macroeconomic aggregates such as consumption and investment demand. Contrary to post-Keynesian college economics textbooks, Keynes did not advocate for random subsidies, that he called “unpredictable”. Also, Keynes proposed anappropriate delineation for these aggregates to show that production, distribution and appropriation aspects of national income are in fact inextricably interwoven. The final impetus for National Accounts came from the outbreak of World War II. In urgent need of a reliable basis for its war budgets, the British government advised economists at the Central Statistical Office to prepare a set of income and expenditure estimates. The chief impetus to the development of economic accounts has come from central governments, which probably remain their chief users. By monitoring economic movements, policy-making agencies including the central bank can see if they are on track with respect to national objectives regarding growth, price inflation, the trade balance, unemployment, and so on, and, if not, they can take appropriate actions.

3. Since the Industrial Revolution which began in 1750 the era of modern economic growth has led the GWP per capita to increase in a sustained basis, though in a very uneven way across different regions of the world. A few of the world’s poorest countrieshave not achieved the takeoff of modern economic growth that other countries experienced two centuries ago. There are two kinds of economic growth. One kind of growth is the growth of the world’s technological leaders. In the early nineteenth centurythat was certainly England; in the middle to end of the nineteenth century, it was Germany and the United States; in the twentieth century the United States was by far the

50

most technologically dynamic country in the world. The “technological leaders” had a very particular kind of economic growth driven by relentless technological advance, in which advances in one technology tend to spur advances in other technologies as well, through new innovations and new combinations of processes. Economists call this kind of growth endogenous growth meaning something that arises from within a system, ratherthan from the outside. There is a second kind of economic growth, the growth of a “laggard” country that for whatever reasons of history, politics, and geography lagged behind as the technological leaders charged ahead. This kind of growth is very different from endogenous growth. It is sometimes called “catch-up” growth. The technologies that fuel it come from outside the economy engaged in rapid catching up. The essence of the import strategy is to import technologies from abroad rather than develop them at home.

4. Catch-up growth can be considerably faster than endogenous growth. Technological leaders have tended to grow at around 1-2% per capita, while the fastest catching up countries, like South Korea and China, have enjoyed per capita GDP growth of 5-10% per annum. No technological leader has ever sustained such rapid growth rates, and no laggard country has sustained them after the point of catching up with the leading countries. Super-rapid growth is about closing gaps in coverage for the poor, not about inventing new economic systems or technologies. The failure to recognize the fundamental differences between endogenous growth and catch-up growth has led to all sorts of confusion in the discussion of economic development. The age of information and communication technology (ICT) has given rise to the new “knowledge economy” inwhich massive amounts of data can be stored, processed, and transmitted globally for use in just about every sector of the economy. The invention and spread of mobile phones, and now smartphones and other handheld devices, has made the ICT revolution also a mobile revolution, wherein information can readily reach every nook and cranny of the planet. The ICT revolution builds on waves of scientific and technological innovations. Total welfare depends on many other factors besides the amounts of goods and services consumed. Apart from natural events such as epidemics, droughts or floods, welfare alsodepends on political factors, such as freedom and security and inventions making improvement to the quality of life. Economic welfare depends on the psychic enjoyment of life, not just the production of goods.

E. Call money aside, the primary cause of the Great Depression is attributed to the signing of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act by President Hoover in 1929. The stock market began to give up its gains of the spring and by the fall, the banks were beginning to fail ingrowing numbers. In 1929 total global trade had amounted to $36 billion, in 1932 it was about $12 billion. American exports had been $5.241 billion in 1929, in 1932 they were amere $1.161 billion. In the Case concerning rights of nationals of the United States of America in Morocco, Judgment of August 27th, 1952 : I.C.J. Reports 1952, p. 176, the Court held that the import controls were discriminatory. The Court ruled 6 to 5 against US exemption from taxes, and 6 to 5 on wholesale price taxation at the customs house forwhich US nationals were due a refund. The guiding principles were economic liberty without any inequality and equality of treatment in commercial matters. The primary cause of the recent Great Recession 2008-2011 is attributed to the final collapse of [adjustable rate mortgages] in 2006-2008, irregular federal outlays from relief acts resulted in t-bond sales in excess of 3 percent of GDP being withdrawn from the stock market perpetuating the recession more than six months into economic depression. The

51

lesson from the Great Recession is that the government must pay for the relief acts, but deficits in excess of 3 percent of GDP are withdrawn from the stock exchange and the large size of economic stimulus measures, in times of economic downturn, can prolong a recession into economic depression.

1. Tariffs and sanctions reminiscent to the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act underly the current global COVID-19 pandemic and consequential economic depression. States must remove any impediments arising to the free exportation of goods required for humanitarian needs, such as (i) medicines and medical devices; and (ii) foodstuffs and agricultural commodities; as well as goods and services required for the safety of (agriculture) civil aviation, such as (iii) spare parts, equipment and associated services (including warranty, maintenance, repair services and safety-related inspections) necessary for (irrigation and agricultural equipment) civil aircraft. To this end, the UnitedStates must ensure that licenses and necessary authorizations are granted and that payments and other transfers of funds are not subject to any restriction in so far as they relate to the goods and services referred to above, in paragraph 98 of Alleged violations of the 1955 Treaty of Amity, Economic Relations, and Consular Rights (Islamic Republicof Iran v. United States of America) No. 175 3 October 2018. The report of the Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance A/73/305 of 6 August 2018 was prepared pursuant to General Assembly resolution 72/157, to redress a dangerous rise in anti-immigrant policies. Untreated with a prescription for Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) to cure coronavirus, it is not any more difficult for a xenophobic human make theleap to germaphobia, than it is for a bubonic plague infected flea to leap from rat to human. The destruction of or denial of access to food, shelter and other essentials of life, specifically the news that hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint (HELP) cure coronavirus is to blame for the killings, rape and other forms of sexual violence, torture, beatings, cruel treatment, with the intent of the COVID-19 pandemic to destroy the human race and economy, in whole or in part pursuant to Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v.

Provided everyone receives the prescription for HELP in the middle of third quarter, before the snot nosed child death year starts, the pandemic and economic restrictions will ease and/or end before the end of the third quarter. Instead of prolonging the economic depression by selling the bonds used to pay for their bailouts the US and EU will devaluate their currencies, appreciating developing nation currencies to create a larger USdollar world economy. Unlike prior devaluations to justify national bailouts in 2019, devaluating the US dollar to pay for COVID-19 relief to fill the -10 percent economic depression from 2019 for the entire year of 2020, will add to the total US GDP and GrossWorld Product (GWP) because GWP is accounted for in US dollars by the 2020 Revisedestimates: effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General A/74/585 of 11 December 2019. The EU has linked their $800 billion COVID-19 relief package to devaluation of the Euro. EU unemployment benefits however cost only one third the price of non-investment grade “economic stimulus” junk bonds passed by Congress in fiscal year 2020 under the influence of speed - ephedrine (Mormon tea) and the demand for US and UK devaluation is as high as their speed (LSD) exposed leaders. To avoid prolonging the economic depression with massive withdrawals from the

52

stock market in fiscal year 2021 to pay for COVID-19 junk bonds the United States Treasury Secretary has until the end of the fiscal year 2020, September 31, to devaluate the US currency 10 to 15 percent to offset the price of special issue and t-bonds used to finance the usual federal deficit, devastated by the most recent prediction for -10 percent decline in individual income and payroll tax revenues, and -5 percent decline in GDP, forthe entire year of 2020, after a one-third decline in the second quarter, pursuant to the Marshal Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421 and 22USC§5301 et seq.

Article 2 Revenues

§76 Individual Income Tax

A. Individual income taxes are the single biggest source of revenue for the federal government in the United States. The individual income tax was the source of about 50 percent of federal revenues and 67 percent of on-budget revenues in 2019. Payroll taxes for social insurance are additional. The US federal government imposed the first personal income tax, the Revenue Act on August 5, 1861, to help pay for its war effort in the American Civil War - (3% of all incomes over $800) (equivalent to $21,800 in 2017).This tax was repealed and replaced by another income tax in 1862 and expired in 1872, amid constitutional challenges. It was only in 1894 that the first peacetime income tax was passed through the Wilson-Gorman tariff. The rate was 2% on income over $4,000 (equivalent to $113,000 in 2017), which meant fewer than 10% of households would pay any. The purpose of the income tax was to make up for revenue that would be lost by tariff reductions. The Sixteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution passed by Congress on July 2, 1909 and ratified February 3, 1913, made the income tax a permanent fixture in the U.S. tax system that is codified in Sec. 1 of the Internal Revenue Code under 26USC§1 et seq.

1. Individual income taxes are those paid by workers and other people with income. The U.S. income tax system is a voluntary system. However, this doesn't mean paying incometax is optional. The federal government relies on each taxpayer to voluntarily report all oftheir income on a tax return and calculate the appropriate tax using current tax laws. The IRS has safeguards in place to ensure compliance. For example, the agency receives a copy of every W-2 every year, and if no return is filed, the IRS can easily calculate the tax and send a bill. Additionally, the IRS can charge interest and penalties, and even commence a criminal action, but only in the most severe and egregious of cases. As of 2017, only seven states do not charge an income tax - Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas Washington and Wyoming, and taxpayers only have to pay the federal income tax. Countries that tax income generally use one of two systems: territorial or residential. In the territorial system, only local income – income from a source inside the country – is taxed. In the residential system, residents of the country are taxed on their worldwide (local and foreign) income, while nonresidents are taxed only on their local income. In addition, a very small number of countries, notably the United States, taxes their nonresident citizens on worldwide income. Countries with a residential system of taxation usually allow deductions or credits for the tax that residents already pay to other countries on their foreign income. Many countries also sign tax treaties with each other toeliminate or reduce double taxation.

53

B. With 10 percent through 12 percent official unemployment rate, a severe -10 percent decline in individual and payroll taxes is crudely estimated by the UN for the entire year of FY 20 from FY 19 levels. CBO reports in 2019, receipts from individual income taxestotaled $1.7 trillion, or 8.1 percent of GDP. Individual income will continue to be 8.1 percent of GDP until the end of calendar year 2025 when nearly all the individual incometax provisions of the 2017 tax act expire. The provisions that are scheduled to expire include lower statutory tax rates, the higher standard deduction, the repeal of personal exemptions, the expansion of the child tax credit, and the deduction for qualified businessincome. Those expirations would cause tax liabilities to rise in calendar year 2026, boosting individual income tax receipts relative to GDP by 0.8 percentage points, to 8.9 percent of GDP. Irregular Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) budget estimates for the COVID-19 pandemic are interesting, the seasonally adjusted annual estimates for individual income taxes, called personal current taxes, goes down -8 percent from $1,761 billion in first quarter to $1,623 billion in the second quarter. -8 percent decline is less than the 10 percent decline estimated by the United Nations for the entire year, and much less severe than the -33 percent economic collapse in the second quarter BEA advance GDP report. Provided BEA statistics are accurate, the US dollar is devaluated, the publicreceives Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) and economic growth begins in the third quarter, after a -33 percent low in the second, it seems reasonable to estimate a -5 percent decline in individual income tax revenues for fiscal year 2020. Going into the future six percent annual growth is optimistically projected. The filing deadline for individual income tax returns with an original due date of April 15, 2020, were extended until July 15, 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

1. During the Great Recession individual income tax revenues went down -1.5% in 2008, -20.6% in 2009 and -1.9% in 2010, before recovering almost all lost revenues with 21.6% growth in 2011. Six times more people received pandemic compensation than extended unemployment benefits during the Great Recession. However, this is mostly the result of small business closures by state industrial quarantine regulations. These workers tend to be lower income, service workers and business proprietors without an

54

official prescription Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP). Provided the dollar is devaluated by October 1, 2020 the contagion can be prevented from spreading from small business to the stock market. Withdrawal of the bailouts fromthe stock market would force large corporations to layoff workers and reduce taxable wages, including CEO compensation. Provided, the 'affluenza' pandemic, disparately affecting western European nations, is treated with HELP in the third quarter to avoid snot nosed child deaths in the 2020-2021 school year, BEA 1st and 2nd quarter personal income estimates are encouraging that is should be possible to limit the reduction in individual income revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic to -5 percent. If the special issue bonds are negligently sold to the stock market, individual income tax revenues are likely to decline by 20 percent in 2020 and in any subsequent year bonds continue to soldin a vicious cycle of withdrawal to pay for relief acts, in excess of 3 percent of the GDP.

C. In 1913, the top tax bracket was 7% on all income over $500,000 ($11 million in today’s dollars); and the lowest tax bracket was 1%. In fiscal year 1918, annual internal revenue collections for the first time passed the billion-dollar mark, rising to $5.4 billion by 1920. In order to finance U.S. participation in World War One, Congress passed the 1916 Revenue Act, and then the War Revenue Act of 1917. The highest income tax rate jumped from 15 percent in 1916 to 67 percent in 1917 to 77 percent in 1918. War is expensive. After the war, federal income tax rates took on the steam of the roaring 1920s, dropping to 25 percent from 1925 through 1931. Congress raised taxes again in 1932 during the Great Depression from 25 percent to 63 percent on the top earners. In 1944, the top rate peaked at 94% on taxable income over $200,000 ($2.5 million in today’s dollars). Over the next three decades, the top federal income tax rate remained high, never dipping below 70 percent.

1. Widening income inequality in the US is alarming. As executive compensation skyrocketed from 2003 to 2004, the average after-tax income for the richest 1% of U.S. households went up almost 20 percent, while after-tax incomes for the middle fifth of the nation — the middle of the middle class — went up only 3.6%. Looking back 25 years —starting in 1979 — the contrast is even greater. The top one percent saw a whopping 176 percent jump, while the middle fifth of Americans saw only a 21% rise. That's a big

55

difference, but although 21 percent still seems high. In fact a new study shows that in 2005, the top 10 percent of Americans collected almost half of all reported income in thiscountry. This is their biggest share since 1928. Taxes on the richest need to be increased.Throughout the golden years of income equality 1950-1970 the top bracket of income earners, a highly variable category ranging from $100,000 in 1925-1931 and 1965-1970 to over $5 million in 1936 to 1941, was taxed between 7% in 1913 to 1915 and 94% in 1944 and 1945. The current rate is 10% for low income taxpayers and 35% for top bracket income earners. The highest income earners exchanged their 39.5% tax rate for 37% in the TCJA, but this expires in 2022 and they are expected to be required to pay the12.4 OASDI payroll tax on all their income to pay for COVID-19 disabled workers in 2021, end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030.

D. The Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981 slashed the highest rate from 70% to 50%, and indexed the brackets for inflation. Then, the Tax Reform Act of 1986, claiming that it was a two-tiered flat tax, expanded the tax base and dropped the top rate to 28% for tax years beginning in 1988. Lawmakers claimed that they would never have to raise the 28% top rate. The 28% top rate promise lasted three years before it was broken. During the 1990s, the top rate jumped to 39.6%. However, the Economic Growth and Tax Reliefand Reconciliation Act of 2001 dropped the highest income tax rate to 35% from 2003 to 2010. The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 maintained the 35% tax rate through 2012. The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 increased the highest income tax rate to 39.6%. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act added an additional 3.8% on to this making the maximum federal income tax rate 43.4%. The amount of income collected via income tax has varied dramatically, from 1% in the early days of US income tax to taxation rates of over 90% during WW2.

1. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) cut the individual tax rate on the rich, leaving the payroll tax alone. Nonetheless, although the UN initially estimated that the TCJA reduced revenues by about 2 percent, this is mostly due to the reduction in the corporate income tax rate. Historical records indicate that the growth of taxes on wages was slow in 2015 through 2017 and the TCJA brought six percent individual income tax growth in 2018, but this was lost to the corporate income tax growth and total revenues did not significantly rise above $2.5 trillion until reaching $2.6 trillion in 2019. Individual income tax growth slowed to 2 percent in 2019 and was estimating 5.5 percent in 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic. The AMT uses an alternative definition of taxable income called Alternative Minimum Taxable Income (AMTI). To prevent low- and middle-income taxpayers from being subject to the AMT, taxpayers are allowed to exempt a significant amount of their income from AMTI. However, this exemption phases out for high-income taxpayers. The AMT is levied at two rates: 26% and 28%. The AMT exemption amount for 2018 is $70,300 for singles and $109,400 for married couples filing jointly. Under the TCJA, AMT exemptions phase out at 25 cents per dollarearned once taxpayer AMTI hits a certain threshold. In 2018, the exemption will start phasing out at $500,000 in AMTI for single filers and $1 million for married taxpayers filing jointly.

2. An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to titles II and V of the concurrent resolution on the budget for fiscal year 2018 Public Law No: 115-97 of December 22, 2018, called the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) since it was introduced November 2017, made the following income tax adjustments for 2018: The deduction for personal exemptions, which had been $4,050 for 2017, is suspended. The standard deduction for single taxpayers and married taxpayers filing separately rises to $12,000 from $6,350. The standard deduction for married taxpayers filing joint returns rises to $24,000 from $12,700. The standard deduction for heads of household rises to $18,000 from $9,350. The maximum Earned Income Tax Credit in 2018 for single and joint filers is $520, if thefiler has no children. The credit is $3,468 for one child, $5,728 for two children, and $6,444 for three or more children. All of these are relatively small increases from 2017 and their expiration in 2025 is absorbed in the unpredictability of six percent average annual growth estimates.

§77 Corporation Income Tax

A. A corporate income tax was enacted in 1894, but a key aspect of it was shortly held unconstitutional. In 1909, Congress enacted an excise tax on corporations based on income. After ratification of the Sixteenth amendment to the U.S. Constitution, this became the corporate provisions of the federal income tax under 26USC§11. Accumulated taxable income of Corporations used to avoid income tax on shareholders iscodified under 26USC§535. More than 90% of businesses, representing more than one-third of all business activity, in the United States are structured as flow-through entities, S- corporations, that do not pay the corporate income tax, but rather pass profits through to owners who pay tax under the individual income tax. In 1980, nearly 80% of business income was in "C" corporations who now account for only about 30% of all business income. In the 1960s, the corporate income tax often collected 4-5% of GDP. Since the Tax Reform Act of 1986, it has more commonly collected 1-2% of GDP. The Tax Cuts

57

and Jobs Act (TCJA) reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% and the corporate tax as a percent of GDP declined from 1.5% in 2016 to 1.1% in 2018 and 2019.

1. The filing deadline for corporate income tax returns with an original due date of April 15, 2020, were extended until July 15, 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the middle of August there is still no information regarding how much corporate income taxes were paid. It is difficult to estimate how much the pandemic is going to reduce corporate income taxes. Corporate income tax revenues go down dramatically during economic downturns because of the ease with which they can file for business losses. The CARES Act significantly liberalized the net operating loss (NOL) deduction rules and strangely allows NOLs that arise in 2018-2020 to be carried back five years. It remains to be seen how accepted this corporate tax relief is. Because the corporate income tax is exclusively levied upon C corporations their revenues are highly linked to the stock exchange. The 2020 stock market crash began on Monday, March 9. The Dow fell 2,013.76 points that day to 23,851, 7.79%, at that time, the Dow’s worst single-day point drop in U.S. market history. On March 12, 2020, the Dow fell a record 2,352.60 points to close at 21,200.62. It was a 9.99% drop, almost a correction in a single day. It was the sixth-worst percentage drop in history. On March 16, the Dow lost 2,997 points to close at 20,189, the 12.93% freefall topped the original October 1929 Black Monday slide of 12.82% for one session. Prior to the 2020 crash, the Dow had just reached its record high of 29,551 on Feb. 12. From that peak to the March 9 low, the DJIA lost 5,700.40 points or 19.3%. It had narrowly avoided the 20% decline that would have signaled the start of a bear market. Few C corporations were shutdown or infringed uponby state government orders that devastated smaller businesses. Some corporations did downsize. Provided the dollar is devaluated to prevent special and t-bonds to pay for the deficit from making massive withdrawals from the stock exchange, corporate income taxes are expected to decline -18 percent in 2020 and grow 6 percent annually thereafter.

B. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. However, corporations operating in the United States face another

58

layer of corporate income tax levied by states. As such, the statutory corporate income tax rate in the United States, including an average of state corporate income taxes, is 25.7%. This rate puts the United States in line with the average among Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) member nations. Before the TCJA passed, the United States had the highest combined statutory corporate income tax rate among the OECD nations at 38.9% (35% plus the average of state corporate income tax rates). After the passage of TCJA, the U.S. combined rate dropped from 38.9% to 25.7%.This puts the United States slightly above the OECD average of 24%, but slightly below the average weighted by GDP.

1. In addition to the 21% federal corporate income tax rate, 44 of the 50 U.S. states levy corporate income taxes. State corporate tax rates range from 3% in North Carolina to 12% in Iowa. The average state corporate income tax rate (weighted by population) is 6%. Under current law, state and local income taxes are fully deductible for corporations. As such, the effective statutory tax rate for each state is lower than the “headline” tax rate. Four states (Alabama, Iowa, Louisiana, and Missouri) also allow corporations to deduct some portion of their federal tax liability against their state liability, reducing the effective statutory rate even further. Combined with the federal rate of 21%, corporations face marginal rates from 21% in states with no corporate income tax to as high as 29.6% in Iowa, where the corporate tax rate is 12%. The weighted average (by population) combined corporate income tax rate in the United States under current law is 25.7%.

§78 Payroll Tax

A. The Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax is the federal primary payroll tax that collects for the Old Age Survivor Disability Insurance (OASDI) and Hospital Insurance (HI) trust funds, however the HI Trust Fund are other interagency payroll contributions for federal and non-federal social insurance programs, particularly state unemployment insurance are accounted for on-budget. Refunds are not provided, taxpayers receive credit for disability and retirement insurance benefits. OMB should notattempt to quantify off-budget undistributed offsetting receipts because OMB does not enter total revenues and expenditures correctly. OMB off-budget data must therefore overruled by the more accurate figures in the 2020 Annual Report of the OASDI Trusteesthat did not take COVID-19 into consideration. For the purpose of accurately accountingthe federal budget the OASDI Trust Funds are the only funds that are off-budget. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the receipts and disbursements of the Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund and the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund shall not be counted as new budget authority, outlays, receipts, or deficit or surplus for purposes of the budget of the United States Government as submitted by the President, or congressional discretionary budget authority pursuant to the Credit Reform Act of 1990 Pub. L. 101–508, title XIII, §13301(a), Nov. 5, 1990, 104 Stat. 1388–623, specifically no resolution should decrease the excess of social security revenues over social security outlays in any of the fiscal years covered under 2USC§632(i). To pay for a third of expiring pandemic compensation beneficiaries without depleting the neglected DI trust fund, it is fiscally necessary to close the OASDI tax loophole for the rich and state employees beginning as soon as October 1, 2020 and no later than January 1, 2021 to pay for COVID-19 disabled workers and create an SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030 by repealing the Adjustment to Contribution Base at Sec. 230 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§430. To prevent snot nose child deaths in the 2020-2021 school year Congress must immediately pass the, or a, cited or un-cited copyright infringement of the Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) Act of 2020.

Source: 2020 Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Old Age Survivor Insurance Trust Fund and Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund. 2020 Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Hospital Insurance and Federal Supplemental Medical Insurance Trust Funds. COVID-19 affect on 2020 estimated -10% decline in OASDI and -5% decline in HI payroll taxes, 6% growth thereafter, 33% increase in 2021 and later OASDI payroll tax – t.

1. A -5 percent to -10 percent decline in payroll tax revenues is expected due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of the maximum taxable limit, the OASDI tax is expected to decline more than the HI tax who eliminated the maximum taxable limit in 1994, whereas COVID-19 disabled workers are usually engaged in lower-paid services and higher paid workers fought harder to defend their industries from being shutdown. Inthe estimates above OASDI payroll tax revenues are estimated to decline -10 percent in 2020 before rising 6 percent annually, and increasing 33 percent when the rich and state employees are taxed. The HI Trust Fund is estimated to decline -5 percent in 2020 from 2019 and then growth 6 percent annually. The Treasury monthly report estimates that off-budget employment and social insurance receipts are 5 percent more than the previous year. This seems unlikely. Unemployment beneficiaries do not pay payroll taxes and massive reductions in covered employment of the sort witnessed during the COVID-19 pandemic are certain to cause a reduction in payroll tax revenues. Furthermore, the off-budget employment and general retirement receipts category is ambiguous, it is not synonymous with the OASDI payroll tax, that is the only off-budget account. The monthly Treasury report provides a reliable total, that indicates a -5 percentdecline in total revenues, but it does not logically distribute tax revenues in comprehensive categories, like OMB does, and corroborates OMB outlay errors. The Treasury monthly report relies on pre-COVID-19 pandemic estimates for their annual projections the United States is unlikely to achieve due to the economic downturn. For the time being a -10 percent decline in OASDI revenues and -5 percent decline in HI revenues is conservatively estimated for 2020.

B. The Economic Security Act (H. R. 7260), first enacted August 14, 1935 was subsequently amended numerous times. The four most significant amendments to the Social Security Act have been the creation of a disability insurance program in the Amendments of 1956, P.L. 86-778 of 1960 that removed the age requirements for disability insurance, the creation of a national medical insurance program in P.L. 89-97 signed on July 30, 1965 and Public Law 92-603 of 1972 that enacted the Supplemental

62

Security Income (SSI) Program to assist "individuals who have attained age 65 or are blind or disabled" by setting a guaranteed minimum income level for such persons. The 15.3% Federal Insurance Contribution Act payroll tax is split between the 12.4% OASDI and 2.9% HI taxes under 26USC§1401. This tax burden is distributed 6.2% OASDI and 1.45% Hospital Insurance (HI) tax + 0.9% tax on high incomes, for employers to collect from employees under 26USC§3101. There is also imposed on employers a 6.2% + 1.45% tax under 26USC§3111. Congress remains burdened with the DI tax rate calculation in Sec. 201(b)(1) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1).

1. Except as noted below, the combined employee/employer rate is divided equally between employees and employers. Beginning in 1990, self-employed persons receive a deduction, for purposes of computing their net earnings, equal to half of the combined OASDI and HI contributions that would be payable without regard to the contribution and benefit base. The OASDI contribution rate then applies to net earnings after this deduction, but subject to the OASDI base. The payroll tax on earnings for the OASDI program applies to annual earnings up to a contribution and benefit base indexed to the average wage level. The base is $137,700 for 2020. Prior to 1994, the payroll tax on earnings for the HI program applied to annual earnings up to a contribution base. The HI contribution base was eliminated beginning in 1994. Starting with Federal personal income tax returns for tax year 2013, earned income exceeding $200,000 for individual filers and $250,000 for married couples filing jointly is subject to an additional HI tax of 0.9 percent. These income limits are not indexed after 2013. In 1984 only, employees received an immediate credit of 0.3 percent of taxable wages against their OASDI payrolltax contributions. The self-employed received similar credits of 2.7 percent, 2.3 percent, and 2.0 percent against their combined OASDI and Hospital Insurance (HI) contributionson net earnings from self-employment in 1984, 1985, and 1986-89, respectively. The

66

General Fund of the Treasury reimbursed the trust funds for these credits. Public Law 111-147 exempted most employers from paying the employer share of OASDI payroll tax on wages paid during the period March 19, 2010 through December 31, 2010 to certain qualified individuals hired after February 3, 2010. The General Fund of the Treasury reimbursed the trust funds for the payroll tax revenue forgone under this law. Public Law 111-312, Public Law 112-78, and Public Law 112-96 reduced the OASDI payroll tax rate for 2011 and 2012 by 2 percentage points for employees and for self-employed workers. The General Fund of the Treasury reimbursed the trust funds for the payroll tax revenue forgone under these laws.

2. Congress is highly advised to adjust the OASDI payroll tax rate to the full extent needed to prevent a deficit in the highly depleted and inadequate DI Trust Fund by amending Sec. 201(b)(1)&(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1)(&(2). The OASI Trust Fund would receive credit on paying back their welfare fraud loan to DI Trust Fund, with the difference between the 1.8% and 2.06% low or 2.3% high cost COVID-19 pandemic projection for 2020 pursuant to Sec. 201(l) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(l). For the low-cost COVID-19 scenario (b)(1)(&(2) would be amended by appending (U) 2.06 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2021. $22.9 billion would be reduced from the debt owed DI to $170.1 billion. Or if they vote to pay the intermediate projection for as many as half pandemic compensation beneficiaries upon expiration by taxing the rich and state employees to reduce the DI debt by $40.2 billion reducing the DI debt to $152.8 billion (U) 2.3 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2019 and before January 1, 2021 and (V) 2.75 per centum of wages (including the tax on the rich and state employees) paid after December 31, 2020 and before January 1, 2025.

3. To conclusively pay back the loan from the DI Trust Fund in full, for the incompetenceof the Board of Trustees to properly adjust the OASDI tax rates during the Great Recession, by lawfully transferring funds from the OASI Trust Fund to the DI Trust Fund, now that the final results are known, it is advised to amend Sec. 201(b)(1)&(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1)(&(2) beginning with (R) 1.80 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 1999, and before January 1, 2009, and so reported. (S) 2.03 per centum of the wages/self-employment income paid after December 31, 2008, and before January 1, 2010, and so reported, (T) 2.35 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2009 and before January 1, 2011, (U) 2.36 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2010 and before January 1, 2012, (V) 2.39 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2011 and before January 1, 2013, (W) 2.45 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2012 and before January 1, 2014, (X) 2.31 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2013 and before January 1, 2015. (Y) 2.24 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2014 and before January 1, 2015. (Z) 2.37 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 2015, and before January 1, 2018. (AA) 2.04 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2019. (AB) 1.9 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2018 and before January 1, 2020. (AC) 2.06 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2021, in the low-cost COVID-19 scenario. or (AC) 2.3 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2019 and before January 1, 2021, in theintermediate COVID-19 scenario.

C. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, Public Law 115-97, was enacted on December 22, 2017. This law will have several effects on the actuarial status of the OASDI program. The law reduces tax rates for individuals, alters the tax brackets and their indexing, and repeals theindividual mandate of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The repeal of the individual mandate is expected to cause some individuals to drop their employer sponsored health insurance, which is estimated to increase OASDI covered wages and taxable payroll slightly. The tax rate and tax bracket changes will affect income to the trust funds from taxation of Social Security benefits. Because the law reduces tax rates through 2025, and the tax bracket thresholds will grow more slowly in the future due to the change in indexing, income from taxation of benefits relative to last year’s report is decreased through 2025 and increased thereafter. In addition, temporary changes for certain small businesses will have effects on reported self-employment income. As a whole, the law has a significant net negative effect on the financial status of the OASDI program over the short-range projection period and a negligible net positive effect over the long-range projection period.

1. Sec. 2 of Deferring Certain Payroll Tax Obligations in Light of the Ongoing COVID-19 Disaster of August 8, 2020, is an unusual and uncodified Presidential Memorandum tothe Treasury. The xenophobic blaming of China leads straight into a new form of germaphobia whereby COVID-19 is not necessary to justify relief and social phobia regarding potentially not-paying social security back pursuant to Sec. 201 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401. The Memorandum directs the Secretary of the Treasury to use his authority pursuant to 26USC§7508A to defer the withholding, deposit, and payment of the payroll tax imposed by 26USC§3101(a), and so much of the tax imposed by 26USC§3201 as is attributable to the rate in effect under 26USC§3101(a), on wages orcompensation, as applicable, paid during the period of September 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020. A business can defer the 6.2% employer portion of the Social Security tax component of FICA tax owed on the first $137,700 of an employee’s 2020 wages paid between 3/27/20 and 12/31/20. Self-employed workers can defer half of their liability for the 12.4% Social Security tax component of the self-employment (SE) tax forthe deferral period. The business must then pay the deferred payroll tax amount in two installments: Half of the deferred amount must be paid in by 12/31/21. The remaining half must be paid in by 12/31/22. This payroll tax deferral deal is available to all employers, with no requirement to show any specific COVID-19-related impact.

2. Public Law 111- 312, the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010, Public Law 112-78, the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act of 2011, and Public Law 112-96, the Middle-Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 specified General Fund reimbursement for temporary reductions in employee and self-employment payroll taxes for earnings in 2011 and 2012. These acts specified General Fund reimbursement for temporary reductions in employee and self-employment payroll taxes for earnings in 2011 and 2012 in order to “replicate to the extent possible” revenue that would have been received if the combined employee/employer payroll tax rates had remained at 12.4 percent for OASDI. The General Fund is still paying SSA back $11 million in 2019 for this unwise payroll tax relief. The deferral and forgiveness are going to have the effect of postponing and prolonging market failure as payrolls are temporarily overextended and then they have to either pay back an unusual payroll tax loan, all at once, or possibly be forgiven at the expense of the General Fund, federal deficit and ultimately stock exchange, after it has

68

been stabilized by devaluation. Because social security benefit costs are incurred by economic depressions it is counterintuitive to take away their revenues, and the General Fund must pay compensation. It is a shame that the President argues for employer side-payroll liquidity to circumvent the prevailing logic that payroll tax relief is wrong. Money for social security benefits is necessary in times of economic downturn, and most of all people paying payroll tax are by definition employed and are critically unqualified for this form of disaster relief for a purely economic depression, without any COVID-19 to report, under 26USC§7508A. It is a crime that the President conceals the obligation for the General Fund to reimburse the OASDI trust funds in his memorandum. He is obviously as mentally ill, probably addicted to speed (ephedrine) as senile federal politicians before him, and exhibiting xenophobia, germaphobia and social phobia without mentioning prior compensation payments for this unlawful form of social security robbery under the Credit Reform Act of 1990 under 2USC§632(i). The General Fund must immediately reimburse the Trust Funds for any social security payroll taxes misappropriated by this memorandum, at the time they were due, not late, if they do not merely overrule this Presidential attempt to evade and defeat the payroll tax under 26USC§7201 or the General Fund will be charged a usurious >6% rate of interest pursuant Sec. 201(l) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(l).

§79 Excise Taxes

A. Excise taxes are internal taxes that are levied on the sale of specific goods and services, such as alcohol, fuel and tobacco. An excise tax is an indirect tax that is not paidby the customers directly — instead, the excise tax is imposed on the supplier or the producer, who then includes it in the product price. Five categories of excise taxes—highway, tobacco, air travel, health, and alcohol—accounted for 94% of total excise tax receipts in fiscal year (FY) 2015. Excise taxes dedicated to trust funds finance transportation and well as environmental and health-related spending. Transportation and fuel related excise taxes of the Transportation Department are the largest source of excisetax revenues and refunds, followed by Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau and health insurance. A great deal of the stagnation in total excise tax revenues can be attributed to a steady 1% average annual decline in tobacco tax revenues since the unfair tobacco tax in 2010. The Highway Trust Fund and the Airport and Airway Trust Fund account for over 90% of trust fund excise tax receipts, mostly from taxes on gasoline and other transportation fuels (Highway Trust Fund), and air travel (Airport and Airway TrustFund).

1. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) legislation passed in 2010 contained several health-related excise taxes to offset a part of the cost of refundable premium and cost sharing reduction subsidies. Revenue from these excise taxes were scheduled to increase significantly over the 10-year budget window and were to account for about 22% of all federal excise tax revenue from 2017 through 2026. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-93), and the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (P.L. 116-94), both enacted in December 2019 repealed the three excise taxes related to health care, and temporarily extended incentives for investment in biodiesel and renewable fuels. Refunds are offered for many reasons and the practice should probably be curtailed, biodiesel and renewable fuels could be sustained tax free without reducing excise taxes. Alcohol and tobacco sales usually increase during economic downturns. During the Great Recession tobacco taxes increases dramatically because of new taxes.

69

Alcohol revenues continue to increase, while tobacco decreases. Transportation and airport excise taxes declined 4 percent and 12 percent respectively in 2009, had nearly zero but positive growth in 2010. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, internationaltravel was quarantined, and there was a dramatic collapse in the price of oil, gasoline prices remain low into the third quarter, and a significant depression in transportation andairport excise taxes is expected FY 20.

B. The first Federal tax levied on distilled spirits in 1791 to pay Revolutionary War debts incited the Whiskey Rebellion. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) was created in January of 2003, when the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), was extensively reorganized under the provisions of the Homeland Security Act of 2002. The Act called for the tax collection functions to remain with the Department of the Treasury. TTB is highly advised to legalize marijuana and change the name of their agency to Alcohol, Tobacco and Marijuana (ATM). TTB is the fourth largest tax

72

collection agency in the U.S. government, behind the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Department of Transportation (DOT) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Annual revenues from the alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and ammunition industries are approximately $22 billion from more than 14,000 taxpayers in the alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and ammunitions industries FY 19. TTB employs more than 500 people across the country and is codified in 27CFR Parts 1 – 399. Chapters 51 and 52 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) authorize excise taxation and operations of alcohol and tobacco producers and related industries. IRC sections 4181 and 4182 provide for excise taxes for firearms and ammunition that are donated to a Wildlife Restoration Fund held by the Fish and Wildlife Service. C. The Highway Trust Fund (HTF) was created in 1956 to provide a more dependable source of funding from the federal government for the construction of the interstate highway system. HTF contains three accounts: a highway account that funds road construction; a mass transit account that funds transit-related projects; and a leaking underground storage tank (LUST) account that, as the name implies, funds the remediation of leakage issues involving underground storage tanks. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reports that the Highway Trust Fund received 82 percent ($36 billion) of its revenue in 2019 from excise taxes on motor fuel, commonly known as the “gas tax.” Since 1993, fuel tax rates have been fixed at 18.4 cents per gallon for gasoline, and 24.4 cents per gallon for diesel. Taxes on tires and heavy vehicles (trucks) make up the rest of the fund’s income. Because the federal gas tax is not pegged to inflation, the purchasing power of the revenue has eroded over time — 18.4 cents buys 43 percent less in 2019 than it did in 1993. The U.S. government imposes excise taxes on a variety of liquid fuels. States also impose excise taxes on fuel. Excise taxes are imposed on all the following fuels. Gasoline, including aviation gasoline and gasoline blend-stocks. Diesel fuel, including dyed diesel fuel. Diesel-water fuel emulsion. Kerosene, including dyed kerosene and kerosene used in aviation. Other Fuels (including alternative fuels). Compressed natural gas (CNG). Along with heavy-vehicle use taxes and truck/trailer sales taxes, these excise taxes are collected by the IRS and placed in the federal Highway Trust Fund. Once deposited into the Highway Trust Fund, the taxes are distributed to individual states based on a legislatively determined formula.

1. HTF funding shortfalls have generally been filled by transfers from the Treasury’s general fund; such transfers have shifted a total of $144 billion to the fund since 2008, including $70 billion authorized in the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act in 2015, that expires in 2020. Such transfers do not bring in any new federal revenues, but they allow spending from the fund to continue. In 2019 alone, the HighwayTrust Fund’s outlays exceeded revenues by $11.6 billion. What’s more, CBO projects that the cumulative shortfall in funding for the Highway Trust Fund will grow rapidly over the next 10 years to almost $190 billion in 2030 — that projection does not take intoaccount any effects from the public health emergency caused by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Transportation was treated to $25 billion by the CARES Act, half of the $50 billion preliminarily asked for. Commercial land transportation regulations were relaxed to expedite the provision of foodstuff and consumer goods. The10 hour a day driving limit and meter was suspended for a short period. DOT has produced a 10 year budget, but the legislature must help the Secretary to distribute her windfall to sustain 3 percent growth agency-wide. the COVID-19 emergency and stay-at-home orders have slowed travel this spring, deepening the projected HTF revenue

73

shortfall. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, travel on all roads and streets was down 41.2%, or 112 billion vehicle miles, in April and 27.2%, or 60 billion vehicle miles in March. So far, cumulative travel for 2020 has declined 14.8%, or 152.3 billion vehicle miles. While fuel demand has increased slightly in the past few weeks as parts of the country have begun to reopen, the decrease in fuel demand due to the COVID-19 emergency may have longer lasting effects. The U.S. Energy Information Administration projects that U.S. liquid fuel consumption will average 15.7 million b/d inthe second quarter of 2020, a -23 percent, or -4.6 million b/d, decrease from the same period in 2019. Whereas, travel is thought to pick-up in the third quarter as economic restrictions related to COVID-19 are lifted, it is estimated that fuel tax revenues decline -15 percent in fiscal year 2020. In 2021 and thereafter fuel tax revenues are expected to recover to previous levels.

2. According to Congressional Budget Office data, more than 90 percent of aviation excise taxes came from taxing passenger air fares, with the remaining coming from taxes on air cargo and aviation fuels. Domestic air travel is subject to a 7.5 percent tax based onthe ticket price plus $4.00 (in 2016) for each flight segment (one takeoff and one landing). A 6.25% tax is charged on domestic cargo transportation. International arrivals and departures are taxed at $17.80 per person (in 2016); there is no tax on international cargo because they are treated as customs duties. Both the domestic segment fee and the international arrivals and departures fee are indexed for inflation. COVID-19 threatens todeplete the Airport Trust Fund, that has been operating on a deficit. Passenger traffic volume at U.S. commercial airports is estimated to decrease by approximately 87% in April to June period, which translates to about a 57% decrease in the first half of 2020 and 45% for the full year compared to forecasted 2020 levels without COVID-19. Total airport operating revenue (minus PFC revenue) is expected to decrease by at least $20.7 billion, representing a 41% reduction driven by decreases in the number of passengers and cancellations/reductions of domestic and international flights as well as reduced non-aeronautical revenue on a per passenger basis. The recovery of airport revenues from the COVID-19 pandemic will probably be must slower than the recovery of the fuel tax, because consumer confidence has been shaken, and it may be some time before they learn to fly again. To cure the coronavirus and restore confidence in commercial air transport, it is highly advised for Airports to retain Federal Air Physicians or Practical Nurses to cure coronavirus with a prescription for Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP)

2. The mobility of Americans is estimated to have declined by 52% since the COVID-19 outbreak. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, travel on all roads and streets was down 41.2%, or 112 billion vehicle miles, in April and 27.2%, or 60 billion vehicle miles in March. So far, cumulative travel for 2020 has declined 14.8%, or 152.3 billion vehicle miles. A 30 percent loss in state transportation revenues in the next 18 months was preliminarily estimated. While increases in fuel consumption since 1993 hadbeen maintaining the HTF, in the years following the recession in 2007, a greater propensity for fuel efficiency has stymied the revenue growth of the HTF, leading to consistent overspending. While fuel demand has increased slightly as parts of the countryhave begun to reopen, the decrease in fuel demand due to the COVID-19 emergency mayhave longer lasting effects. The U.S. Energy Information Administration projects that U.S. liquid fuel consumption will average 15.7 million b/d in the second quarter of 2020, a 23%, or 4.6 million b/d, decrease from the same period in 2019. Consistent with

74

declines during Great Recession HTF revenues are estimated to decline -15 percent for the entire fiscal year 2020.

3. The hypocrisy of the $1 per gallon biodiesel Blenders Tax Credit (BTC) is that it would easier to free qualified biodiesel mixtures from the 24.4 cent per gallon fuel tax. Biodiesel manufacturers complain of both the high per gallon cost in comparison with gasoline and dependence on BTC. Shortly after the BTC was reauthorized with $10 billion FY 20 December 2019 to pay retroactive credits from 2018 and 2019 oil prices crashed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and gasoline prices remain low into the third quarter. For qualified biofuel blenders in the United States (US), the passed legislation also provides for a Blender's Tax Credit (BTC) at US$1.00 per gallon of biodiesel or renewable diesel used in the blending process retroactively from its expiry 2018 and 2019, as well as for the years 2020–2022 under 26USC§40A. For more information about claiming the credit, see IRS Forms 637 and 8864, which are available on the IRS Forms and Publications website. For information about registering with the EPA, see the EPA Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help website. (Reference Public Law 116-94, Public Law 115-123, Public Law 114-113). For qualifiedbiofuel blenders in the United States (US), the passed legislation also provides for a Blender’s Tax Credit at US$1.00 per gallon of biodiesel or renewable diesel used in the blending process retroactively 2018 and 2019, as well as for the years 2020–2022. Only the person that sold the fuel and placed it into the tank of the vehicle is eligible for the taxcredit. The incentive is allowed as a credit against the taxpayer's income tax liability. Claims must include a copy of the certificate from the registered biodiesel producer or importer that: identifies the product; specifies the product's biodiesel, agri-biodiesel, and/or renewable diesel content; confirms that the product is properly registered as a fuel with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); and confirms that the product meets the requirements of ASTM specification D6751. Renewable diesel is defined as liquid fuel derived from biomass that meets EPA's fuel registration requirements and ASTM specifications D975 or D396; the definition of renewable diesel does not include any fuel derived from co-processing biomass with a feedstock that is not biomass. In April 1980, the federal government enacted the crude oil windfall profit tax on the U.S. oil industry. The $80 billion in gross revenues generated by the WPT between 1980 and 1988 was significantly less than the $393 billion projected. The tax was repealed in 1988and remains as a historical note.

D. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) legislation passed in 2010 contained several health-related excise taxes to offset a part of the cost of refundable premium and cost sharing reduction subsidies. To control hyperinflation in premiums and health care Congress must legislate non-duplicate Medicaid prices for private health insurance companies and out of pocket patients. The rule of law pertaining to health insurance subsidies is that non-profit (able) health insurance companies should not be subsidized, if they report profits in excess of 10%. Steady reductions in refundable premium and cost sharing reduction subsidies are needed if they cannot be completely abolished. Currently, the largest excise tax is an annual fee on health insurance providers. This fee represents a fixed aggregate amount for each calendar year ($11.3 billion for 2015), which is imposed on insurance providers according to their market share. Starting in 2014, an annual fee also applies to manufacturers and importers of branded prescription drugs ($3 billion per year in 2014 through 2016). A 40% excise tax on certain high-cost employer sponsored health insurance plans (the “Cadillac tax”) was scheduled to begin in 2018 but Congress

75

passed a two-year postponement of the excise tax, which will now begin in 2020. Other health care–related excise taxes include a 2.3% tax on medical devices and a 10% tax on indoor tanning services. Congress suspended the excise tax on medical devices for two years for medical device sales in 2016 and 2017. In addition, the ACA imposes excise taxes on individuals without essential health insurance coverage (the “individual mandate”) as an incentive to buy it, and on large employers that choose not to offer health care coverage (the “employer mandate”). ACA-related excise tax revenue totaled $16.3 billion in FY2015, 16.6% of total excise receipts. Revenue from these excise taxes were scheduled to increase significantly over the 10-year budget window and will account for about 22% of all federal excise tax revenue from 2017 through 2026, but theycontributed to hyperinflation and were repealed. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-93), and the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (P.L. 116-94), both enacted in December 2019 repealed the three excise taxes related to health care, and temporarily extended incentives for investment in biodiesel and renewable fuelsthat need to be exempted from the 24.4 cent per gallon excise tax to stabilize the industry.

§80 Estate and Gift Tax

A.The federal government has taxed estates since 1916, shortly after Congress enacted the modern income tax. Since 1976, federal law has imposed a linked set of wealth transfer taxes on estates, gifts and generation-skipping transfers (GSTs). A tax, for which the personal representative of a decedent is responsible, was imposed on all estates under 26USC§2001(c). A credit is an amount that eliminates or reduces a tax. Under 26USC§2010(c) the exclusion amount from 2018 is $10,000,000. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act P.L. 115-97 went into effect on January 1, 2018 and Sec. 1601 doubles the estate and gift tax exemption amount doubles for decedents dying and gifts made after December 31, 2017, by increasing the basic exclusion amount from $5 million to $10 million. Sec. 1602repeals the estate and generation-skipping transfer taxes for the estates of decedents dyingor generation-skipping transfers after December 31, 2024. Therefore estates valued less than $10 million are tax free. An estate tax assessed at 50% of gross value over the allowable amount, must be filed, if the gross value of the estate is more than the allowable amount - $10 million as of 2018. Gifts are likewise tax exempt if they are less than $10,000 in value, tuition or medical expenses paid for someone, gifts to spouses and charities are unlimited. OMB does not begin to reduce the estate tax promptly in 2018 because the executor of an estate must file a federal estate tax return within nine months of a person's death if the gross estate exceeds an exempt amount.

1. Data from the Great Recession indicates that Estate and Gift tax revenues go down dramatically during times of economic downturn. This is probably mostly due to greatly reduced stock market holdings and recognized business losses. Increasing the threshold for the estate tax from $5 million to $10 million in 2019 reduced revenues by -27.5 percent in 2019. COVID-19 pandemic is likely to reduce estate and gift tax revenues by an estimated 10 percent, whereas 22 percent catch-up growth was anticipated and one-third decline in economic activity was reported in second quarter of 2020. Provided the dollar is devaluated and the stock market is protected against withdrawal, thereafter estateand gift tax revenues are estimated to grow at a rate of 6 percent.

B. Generally, the gross estate includes all of the decedent’s assets, his or her share of jointly owned assets, life insurance proceeds from policies owned by the decedent, and some gifts and gift tax paid within 3 years of death. Through careful tax planning, however, the valuation of assets can often be discounted for purposes of the estate tax, so the effective exemption far exceeds the statutory amount for many estates. The Uniform Estate Tax Apportionment Act as revised in 2003 (UETAA or new UETAA). The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) places the primary responsibility for paying federal estate taxes on the decedent’s executor. If a state does not have a statutory apportionment law, the burden of the estate taxes generally will fall on residuary beneficiaries of the probate estate. This means that recipients of many types of non-probate assets (such as beneficiaries of revocable trusts and surviving joint tenants) may be exonerated from paying a portion of the tax. Also, it generates a risk that residual gifts to the spouse or a charity may result in a smaller deduction and a larger tax. A number of states have adopted legislation apportioning the burden of estate taxes among the beneficiaries. Under the statutory scheme, marital and charitable beneficiaries generally are insulated from bearing any of the estate tax. A direction in a will that “all taxes arising as a result of my death, whether attributable to assets passing under this will or otherwise, be paid out of the residue of my probate estate” satisfies the UETAA’s requirement for an explicit mention of estate taxes and is specific and unambiguous as to what properties areto bear the payment of those taxes.

C. The starting point for calculating the apportion able estate is the value of the gross estate. Since the properties included and deductions allowed for determining different taxes can differ, the apportion able estate figure may not be the same for different taxes. The value of the apportion able estate is reduced by claims and expenditures that are allowable estate tax deductions. A spouse’s elective share is excluded from the apportionable estate to the extent that the spouse’s share qualifies for an estate tax deduction. For the purposes of the estates tax a gross estate includes. 1. All property in the name of the decedent. 2. Half of all joint property owned with a spouse. 3. All joint property owned by a non-spouse. 4. Property in a revocable living trust. 5. Assets in a pay on death bank account and a transfer on death securities account. 6. Life insurance proceeds. a. Allowable deductions are, 1. Funeral expenses. 2. Debts owed at time of death. 3. Unlimited marital deduction.

77

D. The estate tax is significantly more progressive than the individual income tax. The top economic income quintile will pay 83% of income tax in 2008 compared with almost 100% of the estate tax. The top 1% of households will pay less than one quarter of individual income taxes but more than four-fifths of the estate tax. With cash income as the classifier, the top quintile will pay about 93% of estate tax liability, the top 5% will pay about 86%, and the top one percent will pay 61%. About one-third of all estate tax liability will be paid by the richest 1 in 1,000 households as measured by cash income. The Tax Policy Center projects that estates of the 2 million people dying in 2008 will file just over 35,000 estate tax returns. Of these, fewer than half—about 15,500—will owe any estate tax. This represents about 0.6 percent of all decedents, therefore only the wealthiest 1 in 160 individuals who die in 2008 will owe estate tax. Estate tax liability will total $23 billion, an average of approximately $1.5 million per taxable return, in 2008. After two increases in the exclusion amount to $5 million and then $10 million in 2018 it seems fair to cut estate tax estimates precisely in half from 2008, so that of the 2 million people who die in 2018 only 17,500 will file estate tax returns. Of these fewer than half, about 6,000 will owe any estate tax, 0.3% of decedents, the wealthiest 1 in 320 individuals who die in 2018 will owe estate tax. §81 Customs Duties and Fees

A. Revenue collection of lawfully owed duties, fees and trust funds is one of the most important and oldest functions of Customs and Border Protection (CBP). CBP has accounts dedicated to Immigration Inspection User Fee, Immigration Enforcement Fines, Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA) Fee, Land Border Inspection Fee, COBRA Customs Fees, COBRA FTA, Agricultural Quarantine and Inspection Fees, Global Entry Fee, Puerto Rico Trust Fund, Virgin Islands Deposit Fund, User Fee Facilities, Customs Unclaimed Goods, 9-11 Response and Biometric Exit Account. In FY 19 Customs and Border Protection declares the agency collected approximately $82.0 billion in duties, taxes, and other fees, including more than $71.9 billion in duties, a59 percent increase over $41.3 billion FY 2018 that was 19.5 percent more than $35.6 billion in FY 2017. Congress must thoroughly review Customs revenues pursuant to Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) because it is excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). To create sustainable customs revenue growth and respond to demand from National Geographic and the United Nations, the United States must close the loopholes on energy export tax by replacing 26USC§4612(b) – ‘In addition, there is imposed a flat 5% energy export tax (feet) by the UN Arrears and Certain Iranian Assets Bill of 2020.’ under 26USC§7201.

1. Excessive Customs revenues growth is the product of two crimes. One, tariffs in excess of 0.97 annual reduction under the Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reductions(2007). Two the withholding on wages of non-resident aliens under 26USC§1441 that must be repealed because the Treasury pays for Customs and anti-immigrant bounty hunters must not divert money from the Treasury in contempt of court. In the March 2020 monthly report, the Treasury Office of Fiscal Services held individual income and payroll taxes assigned to the Internal Revenue Service and Social Security Administration respectively are immune from execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or to the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law by Sec.

78

207 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§407. The 2019 Combined Statement indicates that the vast majority of the increase in Customs revenues is attributed to an unprecedented increase in import duties to more than $50 billion and that immigration were not much more than a billion dollars. DACA controversy leaves considerable room to suspect that Customs is concealing their withholding of income and payroll tax revenues as imports, but official accounts indicate that the increase is almost entirely attributable to a dramatic increase in import duties. CBO Budget and Economic Outlook 2020-2030 assumes that tariffs imposed by the Administration beginning in 2018 have increased customs duties by roughly 0.2 percent of the GDP. The Administration’s recentactions on tariffs were taken under authority granted in section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 and sections 201 and 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. The Treasury also has a responsibility to protect people from being defrauded under 31USC§321(a)(5).

2. Funds marked counterfeit under 18USC§472 are immune if those bills are the product of government officials under 31USC§5153. The Secret Service, who is specifically tasked with counterfeiting, could not handle the shame and has been transferred back to the Treasury FY 21. Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) outlays need to be historically removed to their own Outlay by Agency row, to account for emergency supplementals. The United Nations has reduced United States economic growth estimates to offset the exact amount of this undercover customs revenues fraud. Real US GDP has complied while, nominal GDP continues overestimation. The concept of nominal Customs revenues applies to any pie customs sticks their unwarranted fingers in, but Departmental rescission or Congressional impoundment must be reduce these figures, to respect real Customs duties and fees after final decision by the Treasury. Not having received a trial by a federal judge whose judgment they could admire, even if everyone is on speed, and trust to report criminal activity, deportees are recruited by prison gangs to be the foot soldiers in the Central American drug war so many refugees are fleeing. The problem seems to be that ICE specializes in contempt of court, and mustbe seized and abolished by CBP and US Marshall to protect the public from the severe mental illness of their unwarranted invasion pursuant to individual federal deportation trials of allegedly criminal aliens by a federal judge, including judges of the Court of the

B. Tariffs imposed by the Administration beginning in 2018, increasing from tariffs in 2017, are believed by the CBO Budget and Economic Outlook, with some reservation, to have increased customs duties by roughly 0.2 percent of GDP pursuant to section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 and sections 201 and 301 of the Trade Act of 1974. This is exactly the amount that the UN reduced US economic growth estimates for 2018 by, and US Customs revenue growth is widely believed to be counterfeit. In January 2018, the United States started imposing new trade barriers. As of January 7, 2020, the United States had imposed tariffs on 16.8 percent of goods imported into the country, measured as a share of the value of all and steel and aluminum products. A few countries are exempted from certain tariffs. For example, Canadian and Mexican imports were granted exemptions from the tariffs on steel and aluminum products. Other tariffs affected only imports from China, covering about half of U.S. imports from China and targeting intermediate goods (items used for the production of other goods and services), capital goods (such as computers and other equipment), and some consumer goods (such as apparel and footwear). In response to the tariffs, U.S. trading partners have retaliated by imposing their own trade barriers and international trade has contracted. As of January7, 2020, retaliatory tariffs had been imposed on 9.3 percent of all goods exported by the United States— primarily industrial supplies and materials as well as agricultural products.

1. CBO admits increases in tariffs reduce U.S. economic activity in three ways. First, they make consumer goods and capital goods more expensive, thereby reducing the purchasing power of U.S. consumers and Some of those tariffs apply to imports from nearly all U.S. trading partners, including tariffs on washing machines, solar panels, U.S. imports in 2017. Second, they increase businesses’ uncertainty about future barriers to trade. Such uncertainty leads some U.S. businesses to delay or forgo new investments or make costly adjustments to their supply chains. Third, they prompt retaliatory tariffs by U.S. trading partners, which reduce U.S. exports by making them more expensive for foreign purchasers. All of those effects lower U.S. output. U.S. consumers and businessesreplace certain imported goods with goods produced in the United States, which offsets some of that decline. In addition, tariff revenues, by reducing the deficit, increase the resources available for private investment in later years. Reduction in Customs revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic must not be allowed to cover-up their fraudulent customsrevenues growth estimates. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis.

To accurately account for total customs revenues and total customs outlays national accountants shall report total customs revenues and total customs outlays and not attempt to reduce the outlay total with any percentage of customs revenues.

It is possible that Customs revenues might be significantly higher if cost-sharing were outlawed.

C. The maximum duration of any safeguard measure is four years, unless it is extended consistent with the Agreement's provisions. In particular, a measure may be extended only if its continuation is found to be necessary to prevent or remedy serious injury, and only if evidence shows that the industry is adjusting. The initial period of application plus any extension normally cannot exceed eight years. In addition, safeguard measures in place for longer than one year must be progressively liberalized at regular intervals during the period of application. If a measure is extended beyond the initial period of application, it can be no more restrictive during this period than it was at the end of the initial period, and it should continue to be liberalized. Any measure of more than three years duration must be reviewed at mid-term. If appropriate based on that review, the Member applying the measure must withdraw it or increase the pace of its liberalization. The agreement says the exporting country (or exporting countries) can seek compensation through consultations. If no agreement is reached the exporting country can retaliate by taking equivalent action — for instance, it can raise tariffs on exports from the country that is enforcing the safeguard measure under Arts. XII and XIX of the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs (1994).

3. In the Case concerning rights of nationals of the United States of America in Morocco, Judgment of August 27th, 1952 : I.C.J. Reports 1952, p. 176, the International Court of Justice held that the import controls were discriminatory. The Court ruled 6 to 5 against US exemption from taxes, and 6 to 5 on wholesale price taxation at the customs house forwhich US nationals were due a refund. The guiding principles were economic liberty without any inequality and equality of treatment in commercial matters. Paragraph 98 of Alleged violations of the 1955 Treaty of Amity, Economic Relations, and Consular Rights (Islamic Republic of Iran v. United States of America) No. 175 3 October 2018 held, States must remove any impediments arising to the free exportation of goods required for humanitarian needs, such as (i) medicines and medical devices; and (ii) foodstuffs and agricultural commodities; as well as goods and services required for the safety of (agriculture) civil aviation, such as (iii) spare parts, equipment and associated services (including warranty, maintenance, repair services and safety-related inspections) necessary for (irrigation and agricultural equipment) civil aircraft. To this end, the UnitedStates must ensure that licenses and necessary authorizations are granted and that payments and other transfers of funds are not subject to any restriction in so far as they relate to the goods and services referred to above. The US now owes $3.6 billion for Certain Iranian Assets (Islamic Republic of Iran v. United States of America) (2019) $7.2 billion with 100 percent inflation to cope with contempt of the panic disordered US Ambassadors to the UN since 1980 when they began insanely imposing economic sanctions against their rescuers United States Diplomatic and Consular Staff in Tehran (United States of America v. Islamic Republic of Iran) (1979-1981).

§82 Miscellaneous, Federal Reserve Deposits

82

A. Other Revenues are composed of estate and gift taxes, customs duties and fees, federalreserve deposits transferred to Treasury and all other miscellaneous revenues, such as fines. Estate and gift taxes and customs duties and fees are treated in preceding sections. Federal reserve deposits transferred to the Treasury and passport revenues are studied in further depth in this section. Office of Fiscal Services 2019 combined report estimates $85 billion miscellaneous receipts, 2.5 percent of $3,462 billion budget receipts, were collected by federal agencies FY 19. $11.2 billion fines and penalties comprised of 13 percent of $85 billion miscellaneous receipts FY 19. There are thousands of forms for generating federal revenue that are often shared, at varying rates, with the agencies who collect them, in accordance with law. Revenues shared with agencies are excluded from the accounting of budget receipts and are included in total receipts by the Office of FiscalServices 2019 Combined Statement Source of Revenues by Category. The 2019 Combined Statement Source Category of Revenues estimates total miscellaneous budget receipts of $84.6 billion. $237 million miscellaneous taxes were collected from Puerto Rico and Indian gaming. The Federal Reserve System made $52.8 billion Deposit of Earnings and $468 million transfers. Defense Cooperation payments from Japan and South Korea made $320 million. Fees for Permits, Regulatory and Judicial Services amounted to $19.6 billion. Fines, penalties and forfeitures made $11.2 billion. Refunds recovered 35 million.OMB Historical Tables have a margin of error over-estimating miscellaneous receipts by about 2 percent. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on miscellaneous revenues is only adjusted for customs duties, highway trust fund, airport fees.

Federal Reserve and other miscellaneous revenues unadjusted.

B. The Federal Reserve is the fiscal agent of the U.S. Treasury. Major outlays of the Treasury are paid from the Treasury's general account at the Federal Reserve. The Treasury's receipts and expenditures affect not only the balance the Treasury holds at the Federal Reserve, they also affect the balances in the accounts that depository institutions maintained at the Reserve Banks. Although an instrument of the US Government, the Federal Reserve System considers itself an independent central bank because its monetary policy decisions do not have to be approved by the President or anyone else in the executive or legislative branches of government, it does not receive funding appropriated by the Congress, and the terms of the members of the Board of Governors span multiple presidential and congressional terms. The federal government receives all the system's annual profits, after a statutory dividend of 6% on member banks' capital investment is paid, and an account surplus is maintained.

1. The Federal Reserve Act requires that any amounts of the surplus funds of the Reserve Banks that exceed, or would exceed, the aggregate surplus limitation of $10 billion shall be transferred to the Board of Governors for transfer to the Treasury. The Reserve Banks remit excess earnings to the Treasury after providing for the cost of operations, payment of dividends, and reservation of an amount necessary to maintain surplus at the Reserve Bank’s allocated portion of the $10 billion aggregate surplus limitation. Remittances to the Treasury are made on a weekly basis. The amount of the remittances to the Treasury is reported as “Earnings remittances to the Treasury” in the Combined Statements of Operations. If earnings during the year are not sufficient to provide for the costs of operations, payment of dividends, and maintaining surplus at an amount equal to the Reserve Bank’s allocated portion of the $10 billion aggregate surplus limitation, remittances to the Treasury are suspended. This decrease in earnings remittances to the Treasury results in a deferred asset that represents the amount of net earnings a Reserve Bank will need to realize before remittances to the Treasury resume.

1. Interest Rate in the United States averaged 5.72 percent from 1971 until 2018, reachingan all time high of 20 percent in March of 1980 and a record low of 0.25 percent in December of 2008. The President has requested that the Federal Reserve lower the interest rate to increase revenues. The Federal Reserve should adopt the highest interest rate that would increase Federal Reserve deposits remitted to the Treasury. The 0.5% interest rate FY 16 was insufficient to sustain revenue growth, causing a -6.3% decline in revenues for that fiscal year. The 0.5% - 1.0% interest rate of FY 17 caused a -11.8% decline in revenues. Although it might result in a reduction in deposits due to demand reduction the Federal Reserve is highly advised to revert to the low 0.25%-0.5% interest rate to sustain growth in Federal Reserve deposit transfers to the Treasury. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic interest rates have effectively been reduced to zero.

§83 Property, Loans and Negative Subsidies

A. The Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 Pub. L. 101–508, title XIII, §13501, Nov. 5, 1990, 104 Stat. 1388–628 is attributed with defining the terms ‘‘budget outlays’’ and ‘‘outlays’’ mean, with respect to any fiscal year, expenditures and net lending of funds under budget authority during such year under 2USC§622(1). The term ‘‘credit authority’’ means authority to incur direct loan obligations or to incur primary loan guarantee commitments under §622(10). The President’s budget shall reflect the costs of direct loan and loan guarantee programs. The budget shall [note] the planned level of newdirect loan obligations or loan guarantee commitments associated with each appropriations request under 2USC§661c(a)(g). Government outlays are responsible only for administrative and loan guaranty costs. All other lending costs are [privately financed] and should not have any incidental effects on governmental receipts or outlays under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). Federal proprietary receipts and other sources of miscellaneous revenues must also often be excluded from the $4.6 trillion of total of original revenues reported by Fiscal Services 2019 Combined Statement. For instance, the FY 2021 General Services Administration (GSA) budget request for the Federal Buildings Fund sets new obligational authority (NOA) at $10.4 billion, equal to the level of expected collections from the budgets of federal agencies used to cancel the financing

of construction and maintenance costs, that are not reported in the federal budget request. The total amount of receipts excluded from the federal budget that were accounted for by the 2019 Combined Statement was $1,721 billion.

B. Congress must defend government loan guarantee programs against Presidential discrimination, except for the termination of most Department of Energy lending programs, due to completion of major work, negative subsidies, arson, hyper-inflation and non-reporting regarding the 2,000 warhead limit under the Nuclear Non-ProliferationTreaty (NPT). The greatest accounting error in the time consuming Cabinet agency congressional budget justification process, that is necessary to cross-examine Treasury and OMB margin of error in outlays, is the failure to exclude poorly accounted for [federal student loans] from Education Department mandatory revenues and outlay total under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). Congressional activity with the Clerk of Congress and random attorney general and tax refund, authorized delinquent student loan collection attempts, frequently deputize rampage shootings under the influence of water soluble dimethoxymethylamphetamine (DOM) that causes a three panic attack followed by six month recovery from severe mental illness if not immediately washed off with water. Congress and the Attorney General are deeply obligated to eliminate speed exposure to themselves (ephedrine) and others and ensure “privately financed” federal student loan revenues and outlays are “dismissed” from the Education Department's budget request in one sentence to overcompensated university presidents with hyper-inflationary tuition.

1. The Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) program was justified by the need to recapitalize federal mortgages backed securities during the adjustable rate mortgage loan crisis in 2008. The Payroll Protection Program (PPP) was a $666 billion small business loan fraud, that threatens to spread the lockdown contagion to large corporations with unaffordable withdrawal from the stock exchange on October 1, 2020. Government guarantees for payroll loans might have been in order, the 100 percent federal payment is

however a fraud, that threatens to impoverish income taxpayers in fiscal year 2021, lenders must convince the Treasury Secretary to redress pursuant to 31USC§321(a)(5). To prevent two fiscal quarters of recession from becoming an economic depression in theannual statistics, or an economic depression from continuing into a second or third year of denial, a nation with a debt in excess of 3 percent of GDP must devaluate it's currency to prevent excessive withdrawal from the stock exchange pursuant European Union enforced Marshall Lerner Condition under Marshal Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421, 22USC§5301 et seq. and 2020 Revised estimates: effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General A/74/585 of 11 December 2019.

Article 3 Outlays by Agency

§84 Legislative Branch

A. The United States Congress is the bicameral legislature of the federal government of the United States and consists of two chambers: the House of Representatives and the Senate authorized under Article one of the United States Constitution. The Congress meets in the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. Both senators and representativesare chosen through direct election, though vacancies in the Senate may be filled by a governor appointment. Congress has 535 voting members: 435 representatives and 100 senators. In addition, the House of Representatives currently has six non-voting members,bringing the total membership of the US Congress to 541 or fewer in the case of vacancies.. The "power of the purse" provides "No money shall be drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law" under Article 1 Section 9, Clause 7 of the US Constitution. The text of a Balanced Budget Amendment whereby “Congress shall adopt a statement of receipts and outlays for that year in which total outlays are no greater than total receipts” was approved by the Senate (by a vote of 69 to 31) on 4 August 1982 but supported by an inadequate majority of the House of Representatives (with a vote of 236 to 187) on 1 October 1982. The Anti-deficiency Act (ADA) reauthorized September 12, 1982 (Pub.L. 97–258, 96 Stat. 923) is pre-eminent budget legislation enacted by the United States Congress to prevent the incurring of obligations or the making of expenditures (outlays) in excess of amounts available in appropriations or funds.

1. The earliest version of the ADA legislation was enacted in 1870 (16 Stat. 251), after the Civil War, to end the executive branch's long history of creating coercive deficiencies. Many agencies, particularly the military, would intentionally run out of money, obligating Congress to provide additional funds to avoid breaching contracts. Some went as far as to spend their entire budget in the first few months of the fiscal year, funding the rest of the year after the fact with additional appropriations from Congress. The act provided... that it shall not be lawful for any department of the government to expend in any one fiscal year any sum in excess of appropriations made by Congress for that fiscal year, or to involve the government in any contract for the future payment of money in excess of such appropriations. The Act was amended and expanded several times, most significantly in 1905 and 1906. It was further modified by an executive order in 1933 and significantly revamped in 1950 (64 Stat. 765). The current version of the Anti-Deficiency Act was enacted on September 12, 1982 (96 Stat. 923). The balance of an appropriation or fund limited for obligation to a definite period is available only for

89

payment of expenses properly incurred during the period of availability or to complete contracts properly made within that period of availability and obligated under 31USC§1502(a). Obligations are apportioned on a basis that indicates the need for a deficiency or supplemental appropriation to the extent necessary to permit payment of such pay increases as may be granted pursuant to law under 31USC§1515(a). Budget officers must prevent material deficiency from appearing to require deficiency or supplemental appropriation, as the result of such economically depressing policies as Congress failing to authorize themselves and others a pay-raise since 2009, and negligent Presidential budget cut threat and compensation process since 2017. The Treasury is obligated to pay the costs of all programs and contracts authorized by law, by apportioning balances available that are adequate to pay all expected costs, anticipated to increase with inflation, for the duration of the contract, day, month and year.

2. To reduce superfluous paperwork and meaningless discretionary / mandatory distinction that unnecessarily divides and complicates agency budgets, the word “discretionary” shall be repealed from the caption of 'Enforcing Spending Limits' under 2USC§901 & (b). It is absurd that agency budget officers would differentiate between program budget specifically authorized by Congress and the more complete list of programs they finance. 2USC§901(b)(2)(A-G) and (c) must be repealed to eliminate intellectually burdensome accounting requirements for Overseas Contingency Operation/ Global War on Terrorism, Continuing Disability Reviews, Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control, Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessment and 2020 Census; paragraphs (b)(2) (D) & (F) shall be renumbered (A) Disaster funding and (B) Wildfire suppression and a new paragraph shall provide for (C) Ticket to Work (i) If there is a shortfall in federal Ticket-to-work funding for state vocational agencies because the Annual Reports of SSA do not adequately account for the program in their administrativeexpenses pursuant to the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Act of 1999 in Sec. 1148(b)(1) of the Social Security Act under 42USC1320b-19(b)(1) Congress shall legislate to ensure the program is adequately funded $3,747,830,155 in 2020, with generous 2.7% inflation from 2015 to afford COVID-19 disabled workers a ticket to work that prescribes hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) to curecoronavirus and mold allergies pursuant to title I of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 under 29USC§720(b)(1).

3. For the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and Treasury Bureau of Fiscal Services to produce a federal budget that is both accurate and legitimate, to: The terms ‘‘budget outlays’’ and ‘‘outlays’’ mean, with respect to any fiscal year, expenditures and net lending of funds under budget authority during such year under 2USC§622(1), should be appended:

(A) The term ‘‘on-budget outlays’’ means, with respect to any fiscal year, the President's budget, all the expenditures of the United States Government, except those for the Federal Old Age Survivor Disability Insurance Trust Funds, the repayment of debt principal or negative subsidy revenues.

(B) The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and Congressional Budget Office shall analyze and coordinate the annual review of on-budget and off-budget outlays of all the Cabinet agencies. The Bureau of Fiscal Service monthly report shall stop accounting for duplicitous programs arbitrarily attributed to budget authority and instead account for

90

original federal outlays as defined in the sentence above, to precisely cancel revenues, and make an exact estimate of the surplus / deficit and sell up to three percent more t-bonds than are needed.

(C) Fictitious rows: off-budget offsetting receipts, Other Defense-Civil Programs, Allowances, On and Off Budget Independent Agencies, Off-budget Undistributed Offsetting Receipts, International Assistance Programs [added to State], and novel Infrastructure Improvement rows shall be deleted and outlawed from the budget outlays total of OMB Table 4.1 and Bureau of Fiscal Services Monthly Report and Combined Statement. To ensure there is a balance available for federal outlays, t-bond sales shall allow for up to a three percent margin of error more than scheduled expenditures pursuantto the Anti-deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502.

(D) New CBO, and obsolete OMB Table 4.1 Outlays by Agency table shall report the exact amount of federal outlays reported in annual congressional budget justifications andBureau of Fiscal Services the monthly Treasury report for the following federal agencies (1) Legislative Branch, (2) Judicial Branch, Departments of (3) Agriculture, (4) Commerce, (5) Defense-Military Programs (change name to Military Department if their budget declares undistributed offsetting receipts), (6) Education, (7) Energy, (8) Health and Human Service (to graduate into two Cabinet agencies with outlays growing 3%), (9)Homeland Security (change name to Customs), (10) Housing and Urban Development, (11) Interior, (12) Justice, (13) Labor, (14) State (combined with unrepresented International Assistance Program row), (15) Transportation, (16) Treasury, (17) Veteran’s Affairs, (18) Environmental Protection Agency, (19) Executive Office of the President, (20) Federal Emergency Management Administration (21) General Services Administration and Office of Personnel Management, (22) National Aeronautics and Space Administration, (23) National Science Foundation, (24) Small Business Administration, (25) on-budget Social Security Supplemental Security Income transferred off-budget if the rich are taxed (26) on-budget undistributed off-setting receipts, (27) total on-budget outlays, (28) total off-budget outlays reported by the Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Old Age Survivor Insurance Trust Fund and Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund' and (29) total outlays.

(E) Undistributed offsetting receipts are agency revenues remaining from the previous year, often called advanced appropriations, that are used to pay for the following year budget, to reduce outlays by the General Fund. Only five agency budget justifications produce reliable undistributed offsetting receipts, the Departments of Defense, Education,Health and Human Services, Interior and Corp of Engineers – Civil Programs. The annual tabulation of undistributed offsetting receipts is mathematically necessary to calculate total federal outlays and surplus / deficit. The Department of Agriculture has been saving money stolen from food stamps cuts in the Commodity Credit Corporation and does not produce undistributed offsetting receipts, nor make any additional “trade war” compensation payments, for that matter of concealing the proceeds of domestic program robbery. Elementary and Secondary Education and Medicaid declare Advance Appropriations in their budget tables, with explanation that these savings are used to pay for the difference between the school year and the fiscal year and to pay for the beginningof the next year medical claims. The Corp of Engineers – Civil Programs budget vacillates between the sound financial strategy of openly declaring precisely $1 billion in undistributed offsetting receipts and total incompetence, but having once made the

91

declaration, predictably produces $1 billion undistributed offsetting receipts annually as the cornerstone of their federal outlay total. The Departments of Defense and Interior budgets are impaired by the failure to openly declare undistributed offsetting receipts in their budget overview. The Defense Department shall declare undistributed offsetting receipts with the difference between the congressional budget request and the total outlays of the three military departments – Air Force, Army and Navy. The Department of Interior turns a tidy profit in undistributed offsetting receipts, that must be declared to ensure payment of 2.5 percent growth for public land agencies and 3 percent inflation for popular Indian Affairs programs.

B. Legislative appropriations are virtually inaudible. The FY2017 legislative branch budget request of $4,659 million was submitted on February 9, 2016. OMB estimated legislative spending of $4,880 million. A freeze on the salaries of Representatives has been in place since 2010. The House- and Senate-proposed totals for legislative branch activities (including all House and Senate items) differed by $37.0 million, with the House proposing $4.436 billion and the Senate proposing $4.399 billion FY 2017. The Senate has not yet produced a budget and the bills before their Budget Committee are not considered final, whereas brief perusal of the State Department, indicates they do not satisfy legitimate demand by the United Nations and their logic is obviously flawed in such a way as to be certain to be overruled by beneficiaries under 31USC§321(a)(5). TheHouse Appropriations Committee released the draft fiscal year 2021 Legislative Branch funding bill Report No. 116 on July 6, 2020. The bill appropriates a total of $4.198 billion, $207 million, or 5.2 percent, above the FY 2020 enacted level. The bill does not include funds for the Senate or for Senate office buildings. It is estimated that the Senate requires $1.033 billion FY 21. This brings total legislative branch spending to $5.231 billion FY 21, $216 million more than preliminary estimates. The congressional budget request is inconsistent with the FY 17 legislative branch appropriations bill provided funding for the Senate; House of Representatives; Joint Items; Capitol Police; Office of Compliance; Congressional Budget Office (CBO); Architect of the Capitol (AOC); Library of Congress (LOC), including the Congressional Research Service (CRS); Government Publishing Office (GPO); Government Accountability Office (GAO); Open World Leadership Center; and the John C. Stennis Center.

1. The no pay raise vote, zero percent growth of spending on the House and 7.6 percent growth FY16-FY17 for the Senate was as alarming as 5.6 percent growth FY 20-FY 21 for the House and nothing to burden the Senate with. In FY 17 Capitol Police (9.3%), Office of Compliance (7.6%), Library of Congress (11.2%), Architect of the Capitol

93

(13.2%) and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) spending had to be normalized at 2.5 percent - 3 percent annual growth. Despite zero raises for elected representatives total legislative spending is estimated to have increased 6.7 percent from $4.365 billion FY 16 to $4.658 billion FY 17. Greedy leaders cannot justify either the excessive spending growth nor their zero raise policy since 2009. Without a pay-raise legislative spending should increase more slowly than 2.5 percent for government agencies, 3 percent for such services as the Library of Congress and Capitol Police and the overall growth for the legislative branch should definitely not exceed 2.5 percent. After the House slipped the $666 billion Payroll Protection Program into the second draft of the CARES Act, small business loan fraud paid 100 percent by the federal government, rather than guarantee payday loans, threatens to excessively withdraw from the stock exchange unless the dollar is devaluated by October 1, 2020 to avoid the same vicious cycle that prolonged the Great Recession for three years of economic depression. The Senate is highly compelled to subject 5.2 percent growth in the House appropriation to Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) because it is excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2).

2. Legislative branch funding peaked in FY2010, and the FY2016 enacted level of $4.363billion (P.L. 114-113) remains below the FY2009 level of $4.501 billion. The FY2016 level represented an increase of $63 million (+1.5%) from the FY2015 level of $4.300 billion, and the FY2015 level represented an increase of $41.7 million (+1.0%) from the FY2014 funding level of $4.259 billion. The FY2013 act funded legislative branch accounts at the FY2012 enacted level, with some exceptions (also known as “anomalies”), less across-the- board rescissions that applied to all appropriations in the act, and not including sequestration reductions implemented on March 1. The FY2012 level represented a decrease of $236.9 million (-5.2%) from the FY2011 level, which itself represented a $125.1 million decrease (-2.7%) from FY2010. One of the smallest

94

of the appropriations bills, the legislative branch comprises approximately 0.4% of total discretionary budget authority. FY 15 was the only year in recent history when OMB andCongress agreed upon $4,300 million spending.

C. As of 2009-present, the base salary for all rank-and-file members of the U.S. House and Senate is $174,000 per year, plus benefits. The maximum taxable limit for OASDI taxes is $118,500. Salaries have not been increased since 2009. This has been held to constitute cruel and unusual punishment or treatment by Level I executives and federal judges whose salaries are pegged to that of Congress and tends to discriminate against payroll, resulting in bizarre purgatories such as federal government furloughs and shutdowns, due to indecision by financially incompetent legislators. Leaders of the House and Senate are paid a higher salary than rank-and-file members. Senate Leadership; Majority Party Leader - $193,400, Minority Party Leader - $193,400. House Leadership Speaker of the House - $223,500, Majority Leader - $193,400, Minority Leader - $193,400. Members of Congress are eligible to receive the same annual cost-of-living increase given to other federal employees, if any. The raise takes effect automatically on January 1 of each year unless Congress, through passage of a joint resolution, votes to decline it, as Congress has done since 2009. Although Congress is obligated to give themselves and federal payrolls no less than a 2.5 percent raise, to earn their raise Congress must stop punishing themselves and their closest associates, and fulfill their outstanding obligation to close the tax loophole for the rich and state employees to pay for COVID-19 disabled workers in 2020 and 2021, end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030, by repealing the Adjustment of the contribution and benefit base under Section 230 of the Social Security Act 42USC§430.

1. Members of Congress are provided with an annual allowance intended to defray expenses related carrying out their congressional duties, including "official office expenses, including staff, mail, travel between a Member's district or state and Washington, DC, and other goods and services." Many members of Congress retain theirprivate careers and other business interests while they serve. Members are allowed to retain an amount of permissible "outside earned income" limited to no more than 15% of the annual rate of basic pay for level II of the Executive Schedule for federal employees, or $26,550 a year in 2013. However, there is currently no limit on the amount of non-salary income members can retain from their investments, corporate dividends or profits. House and Senate rules define what sources of "outside earned income" are permissible. For example, House Rule XXV (112th Congress) limits permissible outside income to "salaries, fees, and other amounts received or to be received as compensation for personalservices actually rendered." Perhaps most importantly to voters and taxpayers, member of Congress are strictly prohibited from earning or accepting income that may appear to be intended to influence the way they vote on legislation.

2. As it is for all other federal employees, congressional retirement is funded through taxes and the participants' contributions under the Federal Employees' Retirement SystemAct of 1986. Members of Congress under FERS contribute 1.3 percent of their salary into the FERS retirement plan and pay 6.2 percent of their salary in Social Security taxes.Members of Congress are not eligible for a pension until they reach the age of 50, but only if they've completed 20 years of service. Members are eligible at any age after completing 25 years of service or after they reach the age of 62. Please also note that Members of Congress have to serve at least 5 years to even receive a pension. The

95

amount of a congressperson's pension depends on the years of service and the average of the highest 3 years of his or her salary. By law, the starting amount of a Member's retirement annuity may not exceed 80% of his or her final salary. Average annual pension was $35,952 in 2006.

D. The Library of Congress is the nation's oldest federal cultural institution and serves as the research arm of Congress. It is also the largest library in the world, with millions of books, recordings, photographs, maps and manuscripts in its collections. The Joint Committee on the Library (the oldest continuing Joint Committee of the U.S. Congress) was created on April 24, 1800, when President John Adams signed the bill establishing the federal government in Washington and creating the Library of Congress. The act appropriated $5,000 for "the purchase of such books as may be necessary for the use of Congress" after it moved to the new capital city of Washington. The Library's appropriation for fiscal year 1811 officially made the Joint Committee on the Library a standing committee. The original library was housed in the new Capitol until August 1814, when invading British troops set fire to the Capitol Building, burning and pillaging the contents of the small library. In January 1815, Congress accepted Jefferson's offer, appropriating $23,950 for his 6,487 books, and the foundation was laid for a great national library. In 1886, after many proposals and much controversy, Congress authorized construction of a new Library building in the style of the Italian Renaissance. From the 95th Congress forward, the Joint Committee on the Library has been composed of the chairman (or designee) and four members each from the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration and the Committee on House Administration. The chairmanship and vice chairmanship alternate between the House and Senate every Congress. The vast majority of public libraries are organized by the County. University libraries are magnificent.

1. The United States Government is the largest publisher in the world. It distributes materials in a variety of formats, including electronic, CD, microfiche, and paper. As partof its publishing program, the U.S. Government Publishing Office (GPO) through the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) distributes certain classes of Government documents free of cost to designated libraries throughout the United States and its territories. These libraries are known as Federal depository libraries and are usually in college libraries. Federal depository libraries must offer free, public access to their Federal collections, even if the depository library is part of a private academic institution.In addition, information specialists are available at these libraries to assist the American public to locate Federal information. General Definitions of the Office of Museum and Library Services at 20USC§9101(1) inappropriately touching on pornography and blocking downloads from college and public library wifi, must be replaced with (1) No stalking in the library 18USC§2261A.

E. The modern two party system evolved in six distinct party systems in American political history, Jeffersonian Democratic-Republican, Jacksonian Democrats, Progressive Republican Era, Republican Populist, New Deal Democrats and the modern age of split ticket voting whereupon “informed” voters divide their vote so that the President’s party does not also hold a majority in Congress. The sixth party system aroseafter the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965 protected the votingrights of blacks by outlawing literacy tests and other methods of keeping blacks from voting. These events accelerated a redefinition of voting allegiances among Southern

96

voters. Black voters registered and turned out to vote in numbers never before seen. White voters began to look for conservative Republican alternatives. The Democratic Party was further split by the war in Vietnam in general the upper class and academics opposed the war while the working class supported it. By 1996 the Republican party wasflourishing in the South, after the 1996 election eight of the eleven Southern governors were Republican, eight of the ten senators up for reelection from the South in that year were also Republicans, and all were reelected, and of the 125 Southerners elected to the House in that election, 71 were Republicans. Republican strength in state legislatures throughout the South reached new highs.

1. The sixth party system is different from the New Deal in the rise of candidate centered and candidate run elections. Since the mid-1960s members of congress began winning their reelection races by larger margins from 1 to 2 percent before 1964, to 5 percent after1964 and by the mid-1970s by 8 to 9 percent. Today, incumbents maintain an electoral advantage as much as 96 to 98 percent over their challengers. Over the last 50 years no party has succeeded in dominating at the polls or commanding the realm of ideas. This parity and lack of a dominant party has invited a series of bold efforts by the Democrats and Republicans to become the leading party of the era, but each fell short. In the modernage of split ticket voting informed voters divide their vote so that the President’s party does not also hold a majority in Congress. A primary characteristic of the modern electoral era is split ticket voting and divided government, as opposed to unified party control of the government, when one party dominates the Senate, the House and the White House are unable to make law due to the un-impeached treason, bribery, high crimes and misdemeanours.

2. Since the 1950s more and more voters split their tickets voting Democratic for Congress and Republican for president, or vice versa. Although only four elections from the turn of the century to the election of Eisenhower resulted in the two major parties sharing control of government institutions, divided government has dominated the secondhalf of the twentieth century, its normalcy ushering in a new paradigm for understanding American government. From 1900-1952 only four elections resulted in split party control of the government, but since 1952 sixteen elections have brought divided government to power, and only nine have resulted in unified control. In the 50 years between 1952 and 2003, the same party has controlled the presidency and both houses of Congress for only eighteen years. One explanation for divided government is that it is not a random pattern but a willful one in which citizens choose not to have all branches of the government under the control of just one party preferring a system where the parties check and balance each other. Nearly two-thirds of U.S. cities with a population of over five thousand hold nonpartisan elections to determine who will hold local offices.Advocates of nonpartisan local government feel that running a local government should be more like administering a business than playing partisan politics. Frequently they cited the corruption and the inefficiency of partisan politics as, “There is no Democratic or Republican way to clean a street”. Congress has not yet invented litter.

F. Congress shall stop paying for “speed tickets” with extraordinarily expensive Relief Acts un-dismissed while high or low, on or off, ephedra (Mormon tea) harvested from theGreat Basin National Park – extra senile. Ephedra intoxication of judges was noted to justify both the CARES Act of 2020 and Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 and is believed to be a common cause of high spending and clerical errors in Congress, statistical insolvency and administrative malaise and un-dismissed police rampages in federal and state courts. Whereas ephedra is not listed in the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) it seems best to treat the abuse as a constitutional disability affecting all three branches of the federal government pursuant to Sec. 510 (d)(2) of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 under 42USC§12210(d)(2) and XXV Amendment to the US Constitution.

3. Previously congressional activity, and delinquent federal student loan collections have been cited with inciting rampage shootings under the influence of topical Dimethoxymethylamphetamine (DOM) exposure that causes a three day panic attack followed by six months recovery from severe mental illness if not immediately washed off with water. Panic disorder of US Ambassadors to the UN was evident in Republic of Iran v. United States of America (2018-2019). Henbane is suspected in COVID-19 quarantine related domestic violence without insomnia. Methamphetamine causes temporomandibular joint (TMJ) discomfort, and although there are several experimental amphetamines with different numbers of methyl molecules, is believed to be the only oneof these drugs of criminal abuse, that is listed in the CSA. To reduce demand for speed, opiates and other dangerous drugs and make peace with the idiotic drug war in the only

100

fashion known to work, by federally legalizing marijuana, Congress shall repeal marijuana from Schedule I(c)(17) of the CSA under 21USC§812(c).

4. To do unlawful budget cuts sanctioning civilian agencies justice, the US Marshall budget shall increase in excess of 3 percent annually based upon the usurpation by the federal court of any legitimate responsibilities of the FBI (protecting only Uniform CrimeReports, National Forensic Laboratory and Police Academy), DEA (destroying the DEA stockpile and all drugs seized by the police, and terminating DEA Diversion Control if the Department of Health and Human Services does not want to charge the biannual fee), ICE, Interagency Drug and Crime Enforcement, Office of National Drug Control Policy, Sentencing Commission, CIA (protecting the World Factbook), international military finance, international military education, international narcotic control and law enforcement and non-UN peacekeeping are to be completely abolished pursuant to Art. 54 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949) and repeal of the Authorization for employment of FBI and DEA Senior Executive Service under 5USC§3151-§3152.

§85 Judicial Branch

A. The Judicial Branch is established in Article III of the US Constitution. Section 1 Thejudicial Power of the United States shall be vested in one Supreme Court and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behavior, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during the Continuance in Office. Section 2 The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity; arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority; --to all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls;--to all Cases of admiralty and maritime Jurisdiction;--to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party;--to Controversies between two or more States;--between a State and Citizens of another State;--between Citizens of different States;--between Citizens of the same State claimingLands under Grants of different States, and between a State, or the citizens thereof, and foreign States, Citizens or Subjects. 2. In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the Supreme Court shallhave original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the Supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make. 3. The Trial of all Crimes, except in Cases of Impeachment, shall be by Jury; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said crimes shall have been committed, but when not committed within any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed. The Judicial power of the United States shall not be construed to extend to any suit in law or equity, commenced or prosecuted against one of the United States by Citizens of another State, or by Citizens or Subjects of any Foreign State under the 11th Amendment to the US Constitution. The organization of the judiciary, the district and circuit boundaries, theplaces of holding court, and the number of federal judges are established by laws passed by Congress and signed by the President. The number of federal judges in each district and in the courts of appeals is authorized by Congress on the basis of workload. In addition to the adjudication of cases, other related functions, such as the provision of criminal defense services and the supervision of offenders, are prescribed by statute.

1. Following is a brief overview of the work of the courts and other related activities of the Judicial Branch. The United States Supreme Court consists of nine justices, one of whom is appointed as Chief Justice of the United States. The Supreme Court is the final arbiter in the federal court system. There are 12 regional courts of appeals and 167 authorized appellate court Article III judgeships nationwide. These 12 courts of appeals have jurisdiction over cases within a regional area or “circuit.” The 12 regional courts of appeals review cases from the United States district courts and the United States Tax Court as well as orders and decisions from a number of federal administrative agencies. United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has exclusive national jurisdiction over a large number of diverse subject areas, including international trade, government contracts, patents, trademarks, certain monetary claims against the United States government, federal personnel, and veterans’ benefits. Appeals to the court come from all 94 federal district courts, as well as the United States Court of Federal Claims, the United States Court of International Trade, and the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims. There are 12 authorized Article III circuit judgeships on the Court. There are 94 district courts in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the territories of Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and the Northern Mariana Islands. The U.S. District Courts are the courts of general jurisdiction in the federal court system, and most federal cases are initially tried and decided in these courts. There are 677 authorized Article III district court judgeships nationwide.

2. The Federal Magistrates Act of 1968 created the office of magistrate judge to assist thedistrict court judges. Magistrate judges are non-Article III judges appointed by the districtjudges, and they serve for a term of years rather than a lifetime appointment. Full-time magistrate judges serve a term of eight years and may be reappointed. The bankruptcy courts are separate units of the district courts. Federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over bankruptcy cases; a bankruptcy case cannot be filed in a state court. United States bankruptcy judges are non-Article III judges appointed by the courts of appeals for a termof years, rather than a lifetime appointment. They serve for a term of 14 years and may bereappointed. The Court of International Trade, with nine Article III judges, has exclusive nationwide jurisdiction of civil actions against the United States, its agencies and officers,and certain civil actions brought by the United States, arising out of import transactions and the administration and enforcement of the federal customs and international trade laws. The Court of International Trade of the United States (COITUS) needs to change its name to Customs Court (CC). The Court of Federal Claims has nationwide jurisdictionover certain types of claims against the federal government. Its 16 judges are appointed for a term of 15 years by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. Judges appointed to the Court of Federal Claims are authorized under Article I of the Constitution and do not have the tenure and salary protections of Article III judges.

3. Federal probation and pretrial services officers protect the public through the investigation and supervision of defendants and offenders within the federal criminal justice system. A pretrial services officer supervises defendants awaiting trial who are released into our communities and provides a source of information upon which the courtcan determine conditions of release or detention while criminal cases are pending adjudication. In support of sentencing determinations, which require both uniformity of practice and attention to individual circumstances, probation officers provide the court

102

with reliable information concerning the offender, the victim, and the offense committed, as well as an impartial application of the sentencing guidelines. Probation officers supervise offenders sentenced to probation, as well as offenders coming out of federal prison who are required to serve a term of supervised release. The federal judiciary oversees and administers the federal defender and appointed counsel program, which provides legal representation and other services to persons financially unable to obtain counsel in criminal and related matters in federal court. The Sixth Amendment to the Constitution guarantees that “[i]n all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right...to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.” The Criminal Justice Act provides that courts shall appoint counsel from federal public and community defender organizations or from a panel of private attorneys (“panel attorneys”) established by the court. The judiciary’s Court Security appropriation funds protective guard services and security systems and equipment for United States courthouses and other facilities housingfederal court operations. These services are contracted for and managed by the Department of Justice’s United States Marshals Service, with additional guard services provided by the Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Protective Service. The judiciary receives funding to provide for the statutory fees and allowances of federal grand and petit jurors and for the compensation of land commissioners.

4. The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts is the central support entity for the judicial branch. It has management oversight of the court security program, the probation and pretrial services program, and the defender services program. It supports the Judicial Conference of the United States in determining judiciary policies; develops new methods,systems, and programs for conducting the business of the federal courts efficiently and economically; develops and supports the application of technology; collects and analyzes statistics on the business of the federal courts for accurate planning and decisions about resource needs; provides financial management services and personnel and payroll support; and conducts audits and reviews to ensure the continued quality and integrity of federal court operations. The Federal Judicial Center is the judiciary’s research and education agency. The Center undertakes research and evaluation of judicial operations and procedures for both the committees of the Judicial Conference and the courts themselves. It provides judges, court personnel, and others orientation, continuing education, and training through seminars; curriculum units for in-court use; monographs and manuals; and audio, video, and interactive media programs. This appropriation finances annuity payments to retired bankruptcy judges and magistrate judges, U.S. Courtof Federal Claims judges, and spouses and dependent children of deceased judicial officers. The U.S. Sentencing Commission promulgates sentencing policies, practices, and guidelines for the federal criminal justice system. The Chair, three Vice Chairs, and three other voting commissioners are appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. Sentencing Commission must be abolished pursuant to Blakely v. Washington (2004).

B. The Judiciary requests an FY 2021 discretionary budget of $7.8 billion and mandatory budget of $739.7 million. The Judiciary’s fiscal year (FY) 2021 discretionary budget request of $7.8 billion is a 4.4 percent increase over the Judiciary’s FY 2020 enacted appropriation of $7.5 billion. The Judiciary’s FY 2021 appropriations request also includes $739.7 million in mandatory appropriations. The Judiciary built its FY 2021 budget request on the FY 2020 enacted appropriation. The FY 2020 enacted levels will fund FY 2020 pay and non-pay adjustments to base and other Judiciary priorities. For the

103

courts’ Salaries and Expenses account, the FY 2020 enacted funding level will fund six additional magistrate judge positions, additional probation and pretrial services officers, chambers staff to support the large number of Article III judges confirmed in FY 2019 and additional projected FY 2020 confirmations, ongoing cybersecurity requirements, and additional resources for courthouse construction projects.

1. The Judiciary’s FY 2021 budget request represents a 4.4 percent increase over the FY 2020 enacted level. Much of the requested increase is necessary to maintain current services, including meeting government-wide obligations to fund previously enacted federal pay rate increases and required adjustments to Federal Employees Retirement System contributions. Other resources, however, are necessary for the Judiciary to meet new and unique demands on the Branch: the need to support the substantial increase in Article III judge confirmations that began in April 2019, the requirement to expand judicial operations and staffing to address significant increases in workload and caseload stemming from prosecutorial decisions of the Executive Branch and the enactment of new legislation that imposes additional duties on Judiciary personnel, and the obligation to modernize or replace existing and outdated facilities and infrastructure. The Judiciary’sbudget request seeks the resources necessary to sustain operations and meet these new demands while still honoring our ongoing commitment to efficiency and cost containment where possible.

2. The FY 2020 enacted level for the Defender Services account will provide additional resources to the defender services program to handle its increasing workload. Resources will fund additional federal defender organization staff and additional projected panel attorney payments. Regarding panel attorney hourly rates, with inflationary adjustments, the capital and non-capital panel attorney rates increased to $195 and $152 per hour, respectively, for work performed on or after January 1, 2020. The non-capital panel attorney hourly rate is now only $1 below the current statutory maximum of $153 per hour. The FY 2020 enacted level for the Court Security account will support essential security needs, infrastructure costs associated with ongoing courthouse construction projects, additional funding for the physical access control systems program, initial funding for a multi-year effort to upgrade courthouse video management systems, and new court security officers (CSOs) and district CSO supervisors. The FY 2020 enacted level for the Fees of Jurors and Commissioners account should be sufficient to meet petit and grand juror requirements for FY 2020. Administrative Office staff will closely monitor this account, and any potential funding shortfall will be addressed later in the fiscal year through a funds transfer request to Congress.

3. For the courts’ Salaries and Expenses account, the Judiciary requests $5.5 billion, an increase of $209.9 million (4.0 percent) in discretionary appropriations over the FY 2020 enacted level. This request funds a number of critical new investments, including two additional full- time magistrate judges, additional court support staff as well as probation and pretrial services program staff – including 94 additional full-time equivalents for the probation and pretrial services program to handle its increasing caseload due to the First Step Act. The request also supports the Judiciary’s consolidated financial statements initiative and infrastructure costs associated with ongoing courthouse construction projects. For the Defender Services account, the Judiciary requests $1.3 billion, an increase of $81.7 million (6.6 percent) over the FY 2020 enacted level. This request includes sufficient funding to add an additional 116 full-time equivalents in federal defender organizations and to support all projected panel attorney representations in FY 2021. The request also includes a $1 per hour above-inflation increase to the non-capital panel attorney hourly rate (from $154 per hour to $155 per hour after accounting for anticipated 2021 inflationary adjustments). With this proposed $1 above-inflation increase, the non-capital panel attorney hourly rate would be at the projected statutory

maximum in FY 2021. Finally, this request includes additional program oversight and training positions as well as funding for necessary information technology and litigation support. For the Court Security account, the Judiciary requests $664.0 million, an increase of $24.8 million (3.9 percent) over the enacted FY 2020 level. The request includes additional funding for physical access control systems; security infrastructure and additional CSOs for new courthouses; the phased implementation of a cyclical replacement program for video management systems and screening equipment; and additional contract costs to maintain the facility access card program. For the Fees of Jurors and Commissioners account, the Judiciary seeks $55.5 million, an increase of $1.9 million (3.6 percent) over the FY 2020 enacted level. The FY 2021 request is sufficient tofund all projected petit and grand juror requirements.

4. The Judiciary’s courthouse construction and capital security projects are funded from the General Services Administration (GSA’s) budget. The Judiciary continues to focus oneffectively managing the 13 courthouse/federal building projects whose construction costs were funded in FY 2016 and FY 2018. For FY 2021, the Judiciary’s highest construction priorities, based on the current Courthouse Project Priorities plan, are Hartford, Connecticut, and Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Capital Security Program provides funding to address security deficiencies in existing courthouse buildings where physical renovations are viable in lieu of construction of a new courthouse. Stable, consistent funding for these projects is crucial to address serious deficiencies that threatenthe safety and security of the Judiciary and the public. For the Capital Security Program, the Judiciary requests that Congress provide GSA $31.4 million in FY 2021 for the Theodore Levin U.S. Courthouse in Detroit, Michigan, and the U.S. Courthouse in Augusta, Georgia.

5. The Judiciary aggressively seeks to contain costs whenever possible and has implemented a number of cost containment initiatives since 2004. These efforts have achieved significant cost savings and cost avoidance for over fifteen years and will continue to do so. The overwhelming majority of the Judiciary’s budget relates to personnel and space costs. The Judiciary’s cost-containment initiatives have similarly focused on these two areas as they should have the greatest impact on long-term savings. Starting in 2013, the Judiciary has had several cost containment initiatives related to space. First, the Judiciary adopted a three percent national space reduction target. That initiative resulted in approximately 1.2 million useable square feet of space being removed from the Judiciary’s rent bill. In total, the Judiciary has exceeded its national space reduction goal by approximately 37 percent. This initiative resulted in approximately $36 million in annual rent avoidance. After the success of the space reduction program, the Judiciary has focused on another cost-containment initiative, the No Net New policy, whereby any increase in square footage within a federal judicial circuit needs to be offset by an equivalent reduction in square footage identified within the same fiscal year. This policy will help limit growth in the Judiciary’s space footprint. The ten No Net New Projects approved in FY 2019 are expected to reduce the Judiciary’sfootprint by an additional 57,000 square feet and result in $3 million in rent cost avoidance every year.

6. Regarding personnel costs, the Judiciary continues to use work measurement tools to update its court support staffing formulas regularly to incorporate best practices, shared administrative services, improvements in information technology, and other efficiencies.

107

Further, the Judiciary has also undertaken significant efforts to develop alternative organizational models that may result in cost savings, including expanding shared administrative services within and among districts. As one example of an alternative organizational model, the Judicial Conference approved a three-year horizontal consolidation pilot project, based on voluntary sharing arrangements between two or more bankruptcy court clerks’ offices. The Judiciary will study the pilot to determine whether horizontal consolidation of bankruptcy clerks’ offices could produce savings in the level of required funding and/or personnel for those offices without decreasing services provided to judges, the bar, and the public. Further, Administrative Office staff have developed advisory materials for educational and training programs for chief judges,clerks of court, and chiefs of probation and pretrial services offices explaining the principles of and detailing the efficacy of these alternative organizational models. Finally,the Judiciary continues to explore other operational improvements that will simultaneously contain costs. One example is its efforts to encourage electronic noticing to creditors in bankruptcy proceedings.

B. The United States Sentencing Commission, costing $17.5 million, under 28USC§991-998 and other mandatory minimum sentencing must be repealed and abolished pursuant to Blakely v. Washington (2004). The name of the Court of International Trade of the United States (COITUS) needs to be changed to Customs Court (CC). The U.S. Court of International Trade was constituted by the Customs Court Act of 1980 and is codified at 28USC§251-258 to employ 12 presidential appointed judges who hear claims against theUnited States under 28USC§1581-1585. The 1930 Tariff Act, 1974 Trade Act and the Customs Courts Act of 1980 grant the Court a residual grant of exclusive subject matter jurisdictional authority to decide any civil action against the United States, its officers, or its agencies arising out of any law pertaining to international trade, tariffs and customs. The Court operates in accordance with the Rules of Court and in co-operation with the Civil Division of the Department of Justice. The acronym CoITUS is obscene and needs to be renamed to Customs Court (CC) to better respect the laws of nations. Chapter 11 of Title 28 on the Judiciary on the Organization of the Court of International Trade (COIT) needs to be amended to to Customs Court (CC), and reference to COIT needs to changed to Customs Court in 28USC§251(a&b), §252, §253(a), §254, §255(a), §257, and §258(a)(1), Chapter 55 on Court Officers in §871 and §872 to CC. d. Chapter 95 on the Jurisdiction and Venue in §1581(a-j), §1582, §1583, §1584, and §1585 to CC. e. Chapter169 on Procedure in §2631(a-j), §2632(a-d), §2633(a-c), §2634, §2635(a-d), §2636(a-i), §2637(a-d), §2638, §2639(a&c), §2640(a,b,c&e), §2641(a&b), §2642, §2643(a-d), §2644, §2645(a-c), and §2646 to CC. f. Any other reference to COIT that might be discovered at a later date, such as 18USC§6001(4) to CC.

1. The United States Sentencing Commission (USSC) consists of seven voting members and one nonvoting member under 28USC§991-998 that must be repealed and members ofthe US Sentencing Commission, fired, pursuant to the elimination of sentencing guidelines schemes and, 20 years of sentencing reform ordered by the US Supreme Courtin Blakely v. Washington No. 02-1632 June 24, 2004. Sentences imposed under such guidelines in cases currently pending on direct appeal, or in cold habeas petitions, are in jeopardy. In both legislative and litigate practice Criminal sentences must be adjusted downward rather upward, mandatory minimum schemes eliminated and acquittals the norm for most crimes where there are significant mitigating factors. The purpose of the United States Sentencing Commission was to establish sentencing policies and eliminate

108

sentencing disparities under 18USC§3551. The judge, in making an authorized sentencing decision regarding probation, prison and fines may adjust downward the sentencing estimate introduced by the prosecutor and congress or nullify them completely. Mandatory minimum sentencing offends the international recognized legal concept that the statute provides guidelines for a maximum sentence. The legal system isbased on the principle that an independent, fair and competent judiciary will interpret andapply the laws. Judges, individually and collectively, must respect and honor the judicial office as a public trust and strive to enhance and maintain confidence that the legal system is representing liberty interests.

2. It is unlawful for anyone acting under the authority of state law to deprive another person of his or her rights under the Constitution or federal law under 42USC§1983. USCC corruptly endeavors to forcefully influence, intimidate, impede or injure the due process of the federal court under 18USC§1503. The best example of unfair mandatory minimum sentencing is that although the average prison sentence imposed during 2000 was 57 months, defendants convicted of weapons felonies (92 months), violent felonies (87 months), and drug felonies (76 months) received the longest prison terms, on average.In the statistical reckoning drug offenses, other than tampering, like vagrancy and public intoxication, account towards a 50% false arrest rate, because the Prosecutor should not conduct unlawfully obtained evidence, and hold that drug seizures by armed forces constitute the high crime of robbery (aka racketeering) under United States v. Lettiere, 640 F.3d 1271, 1273 (9th Cir. 2011). 49% of federal prisoners are detained for drug offenses, to the discredit of federal judges, who are evidently not any smarter than a law enforcement officer in the practice of summoning drug robbery victims to avoid legal process abolishing the DEA under 18USC§1512.

C. Vaccine propaganda does not HELP – Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint. Discretionary funding for the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) distorts the budget to invent the concept of Direct payments, to justify accountingfor VICP as discretionary rather than mandatory funding, but it adds up. The Centers for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC) similarly distorts their budget by claiming billionsof dollars of outlays for vaccines but offsets every penny and is not believed to exercise any fiscal authority regarding vaccines whatsoever, only the illusion of having some basisin the market to account for the sale of vaccines. The VICP has experienced a steady increase in claims in recent years. In total, claims have doubled over FY 2009 levels and are projected to steadily increase through FY 2017 and beyond. At the same time as claims have increased, the appropriated reimbursement from the Vaccine Injury Compensation Trust Fund has not significantly increased since FY 2009. In FY 2009, 400 cases were filed; VICP funded 41 FTE for an average caseload per attorney of 9.7. By 2015, the number of cases significantly increased to over 800 but, currently, the VICPonly funds 36 FTE. Cases are expected to further increase to approximately 1,000 in FY 2016 and 1,200 in FY 2017. Without additional relief, the caseload per attorney will be 30 cases; however, with the additional reimbursement requested, the caseload will be 23.1 per attorney. To fully fund the Program in FY 2017 and to add staff to handle the increasing claims, an additional $2.6 million reimbursement from the Vaccine Injury Compensation Trust Fund is required, bringing the total appropriated reimbursement from $9.4 million to $12.0 million. Payments are very high. Payments are so high, few of the many victims are compensated. Prescription information regarding, low cost, one-dose amantadine (Symmetrel) effective against human influenza type A and other

109

diseases, or oseltamivir (Tamiflu), zanamivir (Relenza), or peramivir (Rapivab) treat influenza type A or B, that is particularly epidemic in schools and law enforcement, must be discussed in every publication regarding the flu. Hydrocortisone crème, and essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint cure both coronavirus and mold allergies whenapplied topically to the nose or as aromatherapy. Lysol, active ingredient eucalyptol has been approved by the FDA as an environmental cleanser. To keep public restrooms, courthouses and jails open to the public, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, soaps and cleansers should contain medicinal quality essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint, so that people can wash their nose. Squirt bottles and humidifiers dispensingessential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint should make public airspace in classrooms and courthouses, a healing environment, without any contagious coronavirus. Otherwise it will be necessary to wear masks to reduce transmission by 95 percent, homeschool, and prescribe HELP – hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint.

§86 Department of Agriculture

A. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) provides leadership on issues related to food, agriculture, food safety, rural development, and natural resources. The USDA was founded by President Abraham Lincoln's signature of the Act to Establish a Department of Agriculture on May 15, 1862. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is made up of 30 agencies and offices with nearly 100,000 employees who serve the American people at more than 4,500 locations across the country and abroad. The U.S. Departmentof Commerce, Bureau of the Census conducted the census of agriculture for 156 years (1840-1996). The 1997 Appropriations Act contained a provision that transferred the responsibility for the census of agriculture to National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). Since 2017 the USDA was reorganized several times, without authorization of Congress. Farm and Foreign Agricultural Services was divided into Farm Production andConservation (FPAC) governed by a Business Center and Trade and Foreign AgriculturalAffairs with responsibility for the Codex Alimentarius.

1. Agriculture, food, and related industries contributed $1.053 trillion to U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) in 2017, a 5.4-percent share. The output of America’s farms contributed $132.8 billion of this sum—about 1 percent of GDP in 2017, 21.6 million full- and part-time jobs were related to the agricultural and food sectors—11.0 percent of total U.S. employment. Direct on-farm employment accounted for about 2.6 million of these jobs, or 1.3 percent of U.S. employment. With 20% of U.S. agricultural produce exported U.S. agricultural exports have continued to outpace U.S. agricultural imports since 1960, generating a surplus in U.S. agricultural trade. Agricultural exports in 2020 are currently forecast to reach $139 billion. The world population is expected reach 9.7 billion by 2050. Feeding this population will require the adoption of new science and technologies and the implementation of science-based conservation plans to sustainably increase agricultural production. In 2019, NRCS developed conservation plans covering 27.1 million acres. In accordance with those plans and utilizing Conservation Technical Assistance support, conservation practices and systems designed to improve soil quality were applied to 5.7 million acres of cropland. The Forest Service manages over 193 million acres of public land in 44 States and Puerto Rico, collectively known as the National Forest System (NFS). About 63 million acres of NFS lands and 70,000 communities are at risk of uncharacteristically severe wildfires. Over the last ten years, across all jurisdictions nationwide, an average of more than 64,000 wildfires burned

110

about 6.5 million acres of Federal, Tribal, State, and private land. Although an acre of National Forest was 65 times more likely to burn than National Park in 2017, the USDA Budget is becoming quite a wildfire fighter, while the fat burning Interior Secretary unprofessionally incites arson, pursuant to same E.O. 13855 Promoting Active Management of America’s Forests, Rangelands, and Other Federal Lands to Improve Conditions and Reduce Wildfire Risk. Nonetheless, the FY 21 USDA Budget reminds Congress the Forest Service is Interior Discretionary Budget Authority.

2. SNAP will continue to respond to economic need (for growth) while incorporating changes consistent with the President’s Executive Order on Welfare Reform that will streamline program operations (eliminating annual certification and growing 2.7% benefitinflation and 0.6% population growth for 3.3% budget request growth) and (distribute) reserve taxpayer dollars for eligible households most in need. In 2021, participation is reversibly cursed to fall, due to the improving economy and SNAP reforms designed to move participants toward self-sufficiency, to an average level of 37.2 million participantsper month from more than 38.1 million in 2020 plus a 40% increase in monthly SNAP benefit payments for the duration of the emergency pursuant to the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) of April 18, 2020. The Budget provides for an increase in benefits to account for a rise in food costs, after the Thrifty Food Plan was reviewed to provide adequate nutrition now, not last year, and they are paying full benefits since the FFCRA. FDPIR provides food packages to Indian Tribal Organizations to improve nutrition and provide culturally appropriate sustenance. The program is projected to serve 90,000 participants a month in 2021, the same number as in2020. The Budget projects serving 5.25 billion lunches and snacks (an increase of 124 million over the current estimate for 2020) and 2.52 billion breakfasts in schools, 2.1 billion meals in child and adult care centers, and 155 million meals through Summer Food Service Program. Almost 22 million children receive free or reduced-price meals on school days. About one in eight children who participate in the lunch program during the school year, or approximately 3.6 million children, receive 156 million free meals during summer months when school is not in session. In 2021, an average of 6.2 million low-income women, infants and children are expected to participate in the WIC program each month, despite flat or declining Treasury if unredressed by 2.7% average annual consumer price index inflation. It is hoped that the USDA Secretary use the sunny disposition of the FFCRA consumer agricultural subsidy to justify SNAP growth and full benefits to the presumed morbidly obese FNS accountant with Down syndrome, stop annual certifications, grow the population and benefits at normal rates of inflation and outlaw outlay cuts under 18USC§246 whereas they constitute the crime of genocide, eg. destruction of or denial of access to food pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. Foreign Agricultural Service has sustained payments for International Agricultural Assistance P.L. 480.

B. The USDA Budget Summary is read once, to enter the latest sub-agency information into the budget framework, because the tables at the end are notoriously inaccurate. Estimates of outlays for Rural Business Cooperative Services have been distinguished from program level under the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). Rural Development Loan Levels are estimated by subtracting outlays from program level. Excluding loans; premium, user-fee, export credit, trasfers and other revenue funded operations are included in budget authority. Receipts must be excluded

111

from the federal outlay total, that must be subtracted from the total budget request to determine the balance available of undistributed offsetting receipts under 31USC§1502 topay for deficiencies without need for budget supplement in accordance with the Anti-deficiency Act under §1515. After going bankrupt in FY 19 due to a year and a half to two years of indemnity payments by Risk Management Agency, to prove the $139.4 billion budget request was too low. The budget request for FY 20 rose to $149.9 billion, but even with $10.3 billion in undistributed offsetting receipts, couldn’t afford the SNAP genocide without an estimated $6,900 million deficiency from the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) of April 18, 2020. The FY 21 USDA budget requestwas reduced -2.7% to $146 billion, with $15.8 billion to $1.3 billion undistributed offsetting receipts, if the USDA pays agency obligations to sustain 2.5% government, 3%services and 3.3% SNAP growth for 0.6% enrollment growth to compete with the 2.7% average annual consumer price index inflation. USDA must grow to justify a $150 billion budget request FY 22 and 3% inflation thereafter.

B. Under current law, USDA’s total outlays for 2021 are estimated at $146 billion. Outlays for mandatory programs are $119 billion, 81 percent of total outlays. Mandatory programs provide services required by law but are not funded through annual appropriations acts. Mandatory outlays include crop insurance, nutrition assistance

112

programs, farm commodity and trade programs, and a number of conservation programs. The remaining $27 billion, or 19 percent, of outlays are for discretionary programs such as: the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), food safety, rural development loans and grants, research and education, soil and water conservation technical assistance, animal and plant health, management of national forests, wildland fire, other Forest Service activities, and domestic and international marketing assistance. It is counterproductive and delusional to waste time discriminatingagainst mandatory and discretionary programs and Congress is recommended to repeal 2USC§901(b). The accountant needs to appreciate what Congress has to offer, but not to be senile or obsessive compulsive, should distinguish between federal outlays, including for trust funds in the USDA, and myriad of revenue funded operations, loans, user-fees, export credit, transfers etc. that must be excluded from the federal outlay total. The USDA budget office must take some time to improve the communication between their sub-agency budget tables and outlay, budget authority and program level tables to be more accurate and have more time and room in the arteries to defend 3% USDA inflation.

1. Farm Services Agency settles for 12% growth in outlays from FY 17 after some hyperinflation FY 17-FY 18 and FY 18-FY19 and subsequent excessively deficient punishment FY 19 – FY 20. Market development programs stabilize at a 10% increase since FY 17. Natural Resource and Conservation Service outlays should be stabilized at 12% growth from FY 17 and 3% thereafter. The 2018 CCC Financial Report cited the agency for accounting control deficiencies in accounting for budgetary transactions and grants payable whereby the account must have budget authority sufficient to cover the total of such obligations at the time the obligation is incurred pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act 31USC§1341(a). In July 2018, USDA launched a trade mitigation package aimed at assisting farmers suffering from damage due to unjustified retaliation by foreign nations under 24USC§225h. Producers of certain commodities could sign up for the Market Facilitation Program (MFP), while USDA also began to purchase identified commodities under the Food Purchase and Distribution Program. Additionally, USDA awarded funding under the Agricultural Trade Promotion Program, which will help American farmers find and access new markets for their products. In total, USDA authorized up to $12 billion in programs, consistent with World Trade Organization obligations under 31USC§5153. On May 23, 2019, USDA announced that additional aid,of up to $16 billion, would be provided to assist farmers, in line with the estimated impacts of unjustified retaliatory tariffs on U.S. agricultural goods and other trade disruptions. Of the $28 billion total, about $14.5 billion is through MFP direct payments. Total CCC net outlays are about $8.8 billion, a decrease of about $9.9 billion from the 2020 estimates. CCC Funds are estimated to have reached an all-time high of $21,647 million FY 19. There is no evidence that commodity payments notably increased, or other MFP funds were ever distributed.

2. The amount of premium subsidy paid by the Federal government was not reflected in the FY 21 FPAC-8 Risk Management Agency (RMA) table. Therefore, in order to estimate federal outlays for RMA 2.5% growth is estimated from the most recent estimatein FY 20. RMA is excessively punished for their FY 19 hyperinflation under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and 1514(a)(2). Program level is so low FY 20 and FY 21 underwriters seem to be excluding premium revenue in hopes that P.L. will be mistaken for federal outlays. FY 19 RMA paid an unusually large number of indemnity claims, these are expected to moderate. It is recommended to stabilize RMA outlays at $5,779

113

million FY 21 10% more than FY 17 and 2,5% every year thereafter. FY 19 RMA spending spike is probably an accounting error regarding claims from FY 18 and FY 19. For the 2019 crop year, the Federal crop insurance program provided about $104 billion in risk protection or about $78.2 billion in (normalized) risk protection. Actual indemnities for 2019 reflect crop year 2018 losses that were paid out in 2019, plus the portion of crop year 2019 losses paid out in 2019. The loss ratio for the 2018 crop year was 0.74. Estimated losses for crop years 2020 and 2021 reflect the statutory target loss ratio of 1.0. In 2019, the total cost for the Federal crop insurance programs was about $11.8 billion. Of this amount, about $3.8 billion was producer paid premiums/fees and $8.0 billion was for net indemnities to producers (gross indemnities minus producer paid premiums/fees). Another $1.6 billion was paid to the private insurance companies for delivery expenses and $2.1 billion for underwriting gains, and $41 million was used for Federal Crop Insurance Act initiatives

3. Outlays for Foreign Agriculture Service Salaries and expenses for FY 21 settle 12% more than FY 17, 3% inflation, despite non-growing $6 million CCC transfer. The FAS reports that it has sustained USAID's P.L. 480 Food for Peace Program, and child nutrition under 7USC§1691 FY 17-FY 20 but continues to threaten to cut the program in the next fiscal year FY 21. FAS needs to sustain 3% annual growth for P.L. 480 indefinitely, without the duplicitous accounting of the Secretary of State, until the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) FAO/WFP Joint Rapid Food Security Assessment of May 2019 food bank is free to serve other nations living in credible fear ofstarvation. The Agricultural Marketing Service is trying to delink appropriations for Sec.32 from Customs duties and must also cease advocating for the overthrow of P.L. 480. During Prohibition Sec. 24 was one of the most feared Customs bureaus, there is no reason for Sec. 32 to be abolished. It would be nice if P.L. 480 and Food for Progress had a subtotal. It is mathematically necessary to contribute total Customs revenues to thegeneral revenues and receive an inflation adjusted appropriation to prevent counterfeitingassociated xenophobia. It is crime of genocide, eg. destruction of or denial of access to food to abolish, cut, or short 3% P.L 480 growth, defended against by the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020.

4. Rural Utilities Service is acceptable, but Rural Housing Service and Rural-Business Cooperative Service need to be sustained. The Federal government should not dissuade private investors because they imagine some trade-off between paying for Rural Development employees and government guaranteed private lending. The Budget supports broader scale energy development activities, such as smart grid, energy conservation and energy efficiency programs. The requested loan authority is estimated to support 5.1 million rural consumers. In addition, the Budget includes $30 million for broadband grants to support new or improved broadband access in communities with populations of up to 20,000 and loans for water and wastewater treatment. The Single-Family Housing programs support homeownership opportunities for low-income familiesin rural areas. Guaranteed loans are limited to families with incomes less than 115 percent of area median income. The Budget supports a $24 billion loan level for the Guaranteed Single-Family Housing program. This level is expected to provide approximately 160,000 homeownership opportunities. The Multi-Family Housing program (direct and guaranteed portfolio) provides financing for rental housing projects and rental assistance payments for the low-income tenants of those projects. The portfolio

114

currently includes about 14,500 projects which provide 453,000 total housing units. Approximately 651,000 limited-income individuals, many of whom are elderly, with an average annual income of about $11,176 reside in approximately 426,600 direct portfolio units. Rural Business Cooperative Service funding is expected to assist 433 businesses and create or save about 11,000 jobs. In FY 2020, USDA will invest $100 million through the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) to expand retail renewable fuel infrastructure. the Budget proposes a staff level of 4,600 employees, the same as the 2020 estimate, and gives them a 9% raise. All of these programs should sustain 3% growth.

5. The Budget includes funding to support estimated participation levels under current law, including $68.3 billion for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), $25 billion for Child Nutrition Programs, and $5.5 billion for the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). In 2021, estimated participation levels are: 37.2 million per month for SNAP, 28 million per day for the National School Lunch Program, and 6.2 million per month for WIC. The Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) of April 18, provided for the issuance of emergencyallotments in response to COVID-19 pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 since April 22, 2020. Across the United States, emergency allotments total nearly $2 billion per month, which is in addition to approximately $4.5 billion in benefits already provided to SNAP households each month. All SNAP households that are eligible to receive less than the maximum benefit will receive the emergency allotment supplement to bring them up to the maximum. By law, SNAP households are not permitted to receive more than the maximum allotment. SNAP emergency allotments allow states to raise benefits to the maximum amount for the household’s size for up to two months, and USDA is providing additional guidance today to states that want to further extend these emergency allotments month by month as prescribed by the law. Title I of the FFCRA provided $500 million to remain available until September 31, 2021 for Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children, credited with $250 million FY 20 and FY 21. The ``Commodity Assistance Program'' for the emergency food assistance program as authorized by section 27(a) of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 under 7USC§2036(a)) and section 204(a)(1) of the Emergency Food Assistance Act of 1983 under 7USC§7508(a)(1)), $400,000,000, to remain available through September 30, 2021. The Secretary of Agriculture may approve State agency plans for temporary emergency standards of eligibility and levels of benefits under the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 under 7USC§2011 et seq. for households with eligible children. Plans approved by the Secretary shall provide for supplemental allotments to households receiving benefits under such Act, and issuances to households not already receiving benefits. The level of benefits shall be determined by the Secretary in an amount not less than the value of meals at the free rate over the course of 5 school days for each eligible child in the household. A State agency may provide assistance under this section throughthe EBT card system established under section 7 of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 under 7USC§2016. The Secretary of Agriculture may approve waivers of the limits on certification periods otherwise applicable under section 3(f) of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 under 7USC§2012(f)), reporting requirements otherwise applicable under section 6(c) of such Act under 7USC§2015(c), and other administrative requirements otherwise applicable to State agencies under such Act. The term ``eligible child'' means achild (as defined in section 12(d) or served under section 11(a)(1) of the Richard B.

Russell National School Lunch Act under 42USC§1760(d), 1759(a)(1)) who, if not for the closure of the school attended by the child during a public health emergency designation and due to concerns about a COVID-19 outbreak, would receive free or reduced price school meals under the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act under 42USC§175l et seq. at the school. $100,000,000, to remain available through September 30, 2021, shall be available for the Secretary of Agriculture to provide grants to the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and American Samoa for nutrition assistance in response to a COVID-19 public health emergency.

6. The Forest Service is hovering between $7.5 and $7.4 billion FY 21 after making the leap from $6 billion FY 17 to $7.5 billion FY 20, in less than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). However, this is mostly due to Wildland Fire Suppression Reserve. The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2018 provided new budget authority to fight wildfires known as the “fire fix.” Beginning in 2020, the Forest Service and the Department of the Interior will have new budget authority available when base Suppression funding has been exhausted. This budget authority is $2.4 billion in 2021 (ofwhich $2.04 billion is allocated to the Forest Service) and increases by $100 million each year through 2027. The Budget includes $4.4 billion to mitigate wildfire risk. The Budget supports the Forest Service’s activities that protect life, property and natural resources on National Forest System (NFS) lands, other federal lands, and an additional 20 million acres of non-federal lands under agreements. The Budget includes an investment of $2 billion to improve the health and resilience of National forests, ensuringthat our National forests and grasslands continue to provide clean air and water, forest and rangeland products, mineral and energy resources, quality habitat for fish and wildlife, recreational opportunities, and jobs. With $510 million for Hazardous Fuels Reduction and $385 million for Forest Products, among other programs, the agency will accomplish a timber output of 4 billion board feet while improving 3.5 million acres of National Forest System land to reduce or maintain fuel conditions and 1.1 million acres of National Forest System lands to mitigate wildfire risk. It does not seem necessary to remind the Forest Service to camp rent-free, due to the availability and affordability of rural housing subsidies, nonetheless they could afford pay off a few multifamily housing loans, and replant native and edible species in the city, before retiring to a home. It is necessary to take down the traffic tickets and signs inciting the most fire-hazardous, genocidal conspiracy to evict river campers, who extinguish their campfire smolder with potable water, to prevent neglect regarding 10 minutes wildfire fighting with mineral soil in the duff. Both Interior and Forest Service budgets agree to legalize camping on the banks of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers. Love of the wilderness must guide Congress to find the arbitrary nature of camping prohibition, and (civil) eviction in general to be the crime of genocide to destroy or deny anyone shelter and that prohibitingentry or access to the National Wild and Scenic Rivers was a harmful error. To protect free, legal and fire-safe camping by water on public land against litter, arson and genocide, consequential to arbitrary State enforcement of civil cases regarding the hypocrisy of trespassing on public land, it is necessary to clearly prohibit; Entry or accessto endangered species habitat, urban drinking watersheds, private property and military base perimeters by amending 36CFR§261.58(e)(z) pursuant to Citizens to Preserve Overton Park, Inc. v. Volpe, 401 U. S. 402, 410 (1971) and Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020.

7. APHIS and Agricultural Marketing Service, Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) and other program accounting is hoped to more clearly distinguish their fee revenue funded outlay subtotal. FY 20 was noted that they must staff a 'Grain watch' for consumers who don't wash their grain, such a moldy wheat tortillas sold in rural Forest Service District stores, since Grain Inspection went fee based, while Packers and Stockyards have greatly enhanced their insurance coverage, since the termination of 681 FY 17 positions with the Grain Inspection and Packers and Stockyard Administration (GIPSA). The FY 21 Budget includes $21 million for the Federal Grain Inspection Service. The program establishes the official U.S. standards and quality assessment methods for grain and related products and regulates handling practices to ensure compliance with the United States Grain Standards Act and the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946. This funding is used in combination with user-fee funded field activities. The Budget includes $17 million for the Hemp Production program, which regulates the growing of hemp as authorized by the Section 10113 of the 2018 Farm Bill. The Budget includes $23 million for the Packers and Stockyards program, which regulates and monitors the activities of livestock, meat, and poultry market participants to support fair practices.

8. Section 32 of the Act of August 24, 1935, authorizes the appropriation for each fiscal year of an amount equal to 30 percent of the gross receipts from duties collected under customs laws of the United States during the preceding calendar year. After a surge in carry-in FY 20, the Budget proposes to delink Section 32 from customs receipts, and to directly appropriate mandatory funding for the same purposes at the 10- year historical average, adjusted for inflation, to purchase surplus commodities and for the administration of commodity purchases. It is good that the Budget proposes to delink U.S. Customs receipts from the Section 32 program and these funds will be provided to each agency without further appropriation and available for the same purposes as previous receipt-funded activities. The only accountable way for the federal governmentto distribute Customs revenues is from the General Fund. The Budget proposes to directly appropriate funding to the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), the only agency to whom the Sec. 32 program applies, as well as the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), and the Department of Commerce, who have no relations therewith. Within USDA, AMS will be provided $340 million for surplus agricultural commodity purchasesand administrative costs (a historical average spending level for these activities that will be adjusted annually for inflation). Additionally, FNS will receive an initial permanent mandatory appropriation of approximately $21.8 billion, equal to the amount that would have otherwise been made available by transfer from AMS and including the cost associated with commodity purchase activities traditionally carried out under Section 32 – zero. Permanent mandatory appropriations are receipt-funded activities, of which the FNS receives none, and are proposed to be abolished by this same proposal.

9. Department Offices are unremarkable. To end to the trade war the United States must do two things. One, upgrade the Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reductions (2007) from algebra to calculus 0.97 industrialized and 0.999 developing, whereby the US wouldreduce tariffs 3% annually, whilst developing nations have the option to remain in the high tariff poverty trap. Two, produce the annual country by country United States international trade balance to complete the current accounts of the largest economy in the world. We may never know the true US international trade statistics or customs revenuesfor the duration of the so-called trade war. The severity of the commodity insurance

117

payout justification FY 18 and FY 19 is due both to the fiction that trade war doesn’t export well and fact that domestic demand is relatively low without normal SNAP consumer agricultural subsidy growth that is not subjected to opportunistic States enforcing the law of diminishing returns for personal gain. To avoid crashing back to subsistence due to inflation under the Iron Law of Wages, it is necessary to appreciate that the poor spend a significantly greater portion of their income on food under Engel’s law. Government subsidies for the poor must be prioritized because paying the poor generates stable consumer driven economic growth and price-control. Although welfare inflation costs even more than services, doing the 3.3% inflationary calculus to raise SNAP benefits out of poverty, will sustain agricultural economic growth. Settle FY 17-FY 21, annual 2.5% government, 3% services, 3.3% SNAP and child nutrition growth.

C. Food stamp statistics date to 1969 when $250.5 million fed 2.8 million people. The Food Stamp Act of 1977 wrongly reduced benefits from $5.7 billion for 18.6 million beneficiaries in 1976 to $5.5 billion for 17 million beneficiaries in 1977. Beneficiaries rose to 21 million in 1981 but fluctuated downward until Public Law 100-435, the Hunger Prevention Act of 1988 was signed into law September 19, 1988. Following this initiative, Public Law 101-624, the Mickey Leland Memorial Domestic Hunger Relief Act of November 28, 1990 established EBT as an issuance alternative and permitted the Department to continue to conduct EBT demonstration projects. After the Farm Bill of 2002 food stamp participation increased from about 17.2 million in fiscal year 2000 to 26million people in July 2006. The rate of payment accuracy in the FSP improved 34 percent between FY2000 and FY2004 and the 94.12% overall payment accuracy rate wasthe highest achieved since the inception of the program. USDA awarded $48 million to 24 States for their exemplary administration of the program in fiscal year (FY) 2005. By August 2008, participation had reached an all-time (non-disaster) high of 29 million people per month. The 2008 farm bill (H.R. 2419, the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008) was enacted May 22, 2008 through an override of the President’s veto. The new law increased the commitment to Federal food assistance programs by more than $10 billion over the next 10 years. In efforts to fight stigma, the law changed the name of the Federal program to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP as of Oct. 1, 2008, and changed the name of the Food Stamp Act of 1977 to the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008.

1. The Farm Bill of 2008 changed the name of the Food Stamp Program to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Promising not to cut benefits the average benefit amount increased rapidly from $96.18 in 2007 to $102.19 in 2008, to $125.31 in 2009 to $133.79 in 2010. Participation increased 53% from 26.3 million in 2007 to 40.3 million in 2010 reaching a high of 47.6 million in 2013. Additional Recovery Act funds were terminated as of October 31, 2013 in accordance with an illegitimate Republican interpretation of section 442 of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 (Public Law

124

111-296). SNAP promised not to cut benefits and between 2008 and 2013 had the longest uninterrupted spurt of food stamp benefit growth the nation has ever enjoyed. The USDA then intentionally, abruptly, and with significant terrorism, cut aggregate SNAP benefits on Halloween 2013 and Thanksgiving 2016, but couldn't do the math right, although they tried twice on October 7 and November 10, 2016. The most recent food stamp statistic are from 2017 and were offline at FNS when checked in 2020. Peoplelike food stamps, but the recertification is abusive. The promise not to cut benefits needs to equate food stamps with being a more cost-effective and stable agricultural subsidy than commodity insurance, to justify sustaining 3.3% annual SNAP growth = 0.6% growth in beneficiaries + 2.7% consumer price index (CPI) inflation.

2. The USDA budget office declares they have sustained moderate growth and SNAP benefits have been above $70 billion, since doing one year of hard time at $68 billion FY 2010, less than the 42-month limit on such persecutions (Revelation 13:10). Subsequently the FNS and USDA are constantly persecuting SNAP beneficiaries with threats of the number of the beast, defeating growth Halloween 2013 and Thanksgiving 2016. The embezzlement of SNAP benefits by State budget cut mercenaries and USDA undeclared undistributed offsetting receipts, is rampant due to arbitrarily reduced benefitssince Halloween 2013. FNS has held a conference to pacify their Thrifty Food Plan to provide an adequate diet, rather than incite the bare bones diet of the previous year’s famine. The Secretary has held, that all SNAP households shall receive maximum benefit authorized by law. While it is true the food stamp program grew very fast during the Great Recession, the federal government must be careful when inciting genocide against the relatively expensive and fast-growing consumer agricultural subsidy to allow for more than 2.5% government, and 3% services growth. Food stamps cost 3.3% inflation to afford 2.7% average annual consumer price index inflation and arbitrary 0.6%population growth. The $77 billion 2020 estimate, is higher than $75 billion estimate for $6 billion three-month $2 billion supplement. The USDA has the undistributed offsettingreceipts FY 20 to afford hyperinflation FY 20. The Secretary must prove the USDA wants to sustain 3.3% annual SNAP growth to raise the consumer agricultural economic subsidy for a growing population out of poverty, malnutrition and commodity and crop insurance indemnity pursuant to 7USC§2011 and 42USC§175l.

3. The Budget abusively includes proposals to eliminate several programs that are inefficient or duplicative of other federal or private sector initiatives. These include some Rural Business-Cooperative Service programs, the Single-Family Housing Direct Loan program, the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education Program, Food for Progress, among others. Participation in nutrition assistance programs is expected to continue declining with sustained economic growth that enables families to work toward self-reliance. In addition, with the implementation of Administration’s regulatory reforms, SNAP participation will decrease further as eligibility loopholes are closed and able-bodied adults are moved toward self- sufficiency. Over ten years, participation is anticipated to decrease by 4.5 million individuals due to the combination of ongoing economic growth and the sustained impact of these reforms. Thanks to the Administration’s pro-growth policies, the economy is thriving and the nation has the lowest unemployment in more than half a century. A growing economy produces more jobs, yet our safety net programs as currently structured are not doing enough to move low-income families from welfare to sustained independence. The Budget retains the proposal to overhaul the SNAP work requirements for all adults ages 18 to 65, unless they qualify for specific exemptions. Under the proposal, those subject to the work requirement would need to work or participate in specific work preparation activities at least 20 hours per week, averaged to 80 hours per month, in order to continue receiving SNAP benefits. This proposal is expected to save $37 billion over 10 years. This proposalbuilds on the recently finalized regulation that strengthened and standardized work requirements and State waiver options for work-capable adults. The Budget continues the America’s harvest box proposal, allowing innovative partnerships with the private sector to combine traditional SNAP EBT benefits with 100 percent American grown foods provided directly to households.

4. Incitement to cut welfare programs must be prohibited under Art. 20 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1976) and the Executive Order on Welfare Reform. Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of theCrime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020 held killings, rape and other forms of sexual violence, torture, beatings, cruel treatment, and for the destruction of or denial of access to food, shelter and other essentials of life, all with the intent to destroy the…group, in whole or in part, to be the crime of genocide. The Court defended shelter, rather than home, in the online Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948). Incitement to deprive government agencies or beneficiaries of relief benefits provided by statute under 18USC§246 constitutes disorderly conduct under36CFR§261.4. The Secretary is requested to sustain full benefits competitive with 2.7% inflation and grow the beneficiary population at a stately 0.6% pace. The Secretary of Agriculture may approve waivers (sovereign immunity) of the limits on certification periods otherwise applicable under section 3(f) of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 under 7USC§2012(f), reporting requirements otherwise applicable under section 6(c) of such Act under 7USC§2015(c), and other administrative requirements otherwise applicable to State agencies supra FFCRA of 2020. While the FFCRA seems to have done pretty well by the FNS, it was only a matter of days before the CARES Act bankrupted the United States ultra vires a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème on the nose and/or chest to instantly cure coronavirus and mold allergies. Just a reminder to repeal the ‘waiver of’ Parkinson’s disease from sovereign immunity in the title of 11USC§106 and the body of 43USC§390uu pursuant to Certain Iranian Assets (Republic of Iran v. United States of America) 2019. To do the State administrated SNAP program justice,

127

moot worker propaganda and labor experts must be distinguished from the budget cut genocide and failure to pay legal child support obligations, of the Personal Responsibilityand Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (P.L. 104-193) under 18USC§228 by Biestek v. Berryhill, Commissioner of Social Security (2019). It is a crime of genocide to destroy or deny an immigrant’s Green Card, if they file for food stamp benefits, this deprivation or denial of food and essentials of life in the United States, is a severe discrimination against nationality that the Secretary must reassure immigrants is prohibited to prevent the further statistical corruption of Customs by Title VI Civil RightsAct of 1964 under 42USC§2000d. The Secretary is compelled to investigate the hypothesis that the intellectually disabling Down syndrome of SNAP budget cut propaganda is the product of a morbidly obese executive or accountant. The Secretary must test the ability of the FNS accountant to pass the Army Height Weight Tables for Prior Service, three-mile run of the Marine Corp Physical Fitness Test (PFT) and republish the Historic SNAP table updated for 2019 without mathematical or accounting error to defend against crash back subsistence due to hyperinflation under the Iron Law ofWages by pro-poor Engel’s law. The Secretary is obligated by 2.7% average annual consumer price index inflation since 1980 to raise SNAP benefits out of poverty with 3.3% growth to justify 3% USDA budget request growth.

§87 Department of Commerce

A. The United States Department of Commerce and Labor was created on February 14, 1903. It was subsequently renamed the Department of Commerce on March 4, 1913, as the bureaus and agencies specializing in labor were transferred to the new Department of Labor. The mission of the U.S. Department of Commerce is to create the conditions for long-term economic growth and opportunity. The U.S. Department of Commerce’s FY 2021 Budget requests $7.9 billion in discretionary funding, a $7.3 billion or 48 percent decrease from the FY 2020 enacted level. Failure to multiply by (000) results in mathematical rejection of the FY 21 Commerce budget in its entirety. There are severe accounting inaccuracies and irregularities in the budget tables that need to be multiplied (in thousands) regarding the proof of offsetting receipts claimed, causing the Treasury monthly report to disregard them and overestimate Commerce Department spending. The Commerce Department uses the terms budget authority and outlays, synonymously with appropriations, inconsistently, and generally the opposite of generally accepted accounting practice (gaap), so commerce, not congressional, budget authority is less than outlays. The Commerce budget makes incredible claims to utilize inestimable offsetting receipts, to the spending overestimate of the monthly Treasury report. To salvage the FY21 budget in brief, an additional sub-agencv audit must describe the 2020 Census wind-down and the anti-deficiency act defense of sufficient revenues the Economic Development Administration, under 31USC§1341(a).

1. Pursuant to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, provided $6.696 billion in 2020 to support the Decennial Census, including $669 million dedicated towards Secretarial contingency need for a congressional malintent defense. Actual costs of the 2020 Census were a tasteful $6,711 million for the decennial Census for 406,995 positions, 97,000 full time equivalents, with $7.1 billion for the Census Bureau FY 20 going down to $1.6 billion FY 21. 101,178 were employed by the Census 2010 for $7.4 billion FY 10. Congress must blamelessly re-authorize all Commerce legislation in the final page, stabilize Economic Development Administration from FY 189 overestimate toFY 21 normal growth and prepare NOAA to swim the 16.6% $6,000-6,999 million abyss in less than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). California Governor Newsom will refine the self-combusting oceanic hydrocarbon heating pump railcars he extinguishes with TCB in the Arctic Ocean on demand for finder keeper, to help reduce his deficit, NOAA is asked to corroborate Arctic ocean sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly normalization from date of his taking office to New York v.

2. In light of the proposal to close down EDA, the Administration is also including in the general provisions for the Department of Commerce, specific language to allow for its Revolving Loan Fund grants as provided by the Anti-Deficiency Act under 31USC§1341(a). The accounting lesson for FY 21 is that all accounts must have budget authority sufficient to cover the total of such obligations at the time the obligation is incurred. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure budget authority is greater than outlays by declaring lending program budget authority. The ultra-high final payment estimate for theEDA FY 19 lending needs to be refinanced for perpetual 2.5% annual growth. Furthermore, the loan program must be specifically excluded from the total outlays requests under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). The Bureau of Industrial Security admits their enforcement of sanctions could be construed as reprehensible.

§88 Department of Customs

A. DHS was established by the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107-296), datedNovember 25, 2002, as an executive department of the U.S. Federal Government. On March 1, 2003 the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) inherited the professional workforce, programs and infrastructure of the Coast Guard, Customs Service, Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), Transportation Security Administration, and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) 22 agencies in all. President Trump was named and homeland security propaganda diagnosed national populist by Contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance A/73/305 on 6 August 2018. After evading CR 18, in FY 19 the Office of Health Affairs (OHA) was abolished and National Program Protection Directorate changed its name to Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. In FY 20 biometrics and federal program protection were transferred to Management. The FY 2021 President’s Budget proposes to transfer the United States Secret Service from DHS to the Department of the Treasury to better defend skyrocketing Customs revenues and outlays for historical Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) supplementals and hyper-

133

inflationary law enforcement budgets against counterfeiting allegations under 18USC§472 and 31USC§5153.

1. Congress and President must appoint FEMA to the Cabinet with their own row in OMB Historical Table 4.1, restart OHA with a Federal Air Physician for $250 million FY21 plus 3 percent inflation in future years, and change the names of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to Customs in Title 6 of the US Code and Code of Federal Regulations and Court of International Trade of the United States (COITUS) to Customs Court (CC). To respond to the COVID-19 pandemic FY 20 DHS must pay a minimum of $150 million to restart OHA, $250 million FY 21 for a Federal Air Physician to ensureemployees receive Pneumovax and relevant international vaccines and treat quarantined patients with coronavirus and mold allergies with hydrocortisone crème, or essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint and influenza with Oseltamivir (Tamiflu), Zanamivir (Relenza) and Amantadine (Symmetrel). Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) determined to be excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). Homeland Security outlays exhibits two (or three) cases of excessive increases – Customs revenue growth since FY 18, hyperinflation in Customs and Border Protection and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) spending. 26 percent inflation since 2017 in CBP and 54 percent inflation in ICE is far inexcess of 3 percent inflation, 12 percent growth since 2017. To afford the $2 billion excess request by CBP it is ruled the FY 21 ICE budget be reduced to $6.6 billion or nothing and $3.3 billion for CBP and $3.3 billion for US Marshal FY 21. If ICE is not immediately abolished FY 21 it will be abolished within 42 months (Revelation 13:10).

2. To produce an accurate estimate of total federal outlays for the U.S. Customs Service a.k.a. Homeland Security, it is necessary to separate the Customs Service from Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Less FEMA Disaster Relief is in error to not accurately express the additional quality of supplemental appropriations in the historical records of federal outlays for the Department of Homeland Security, that shall have to revised for the entire duration of this projection to produce an accurate federal budget, total outlays, surplus or deficit. To clearly report to the President's budget: total federal outlays for the Department, Customs must delete several rows from the Homeland Security budget – Less FEMA Disaster Relief, Less Mandatory Fees and Trust Funds, Gross Discretionary Budget Authority, Less Overseas Contingency Operations, Less Discretionary Offsetting Fees, Less FEMA Disaster Relief – Major Disaster Cap Adjustment, Net Discretionary Budget Authority, Less – CHIMP Funding, and Adjusted Net Discretionary Budget Authority. Total budget authority must be subtracted by the amount of the FEMA budget request, to produce Customs Total Budget Authority subtracted by Rescissions, above Total Budget Authority, equal to total Federal Outlays for the Customs Service.

B. The term “trade war” has come to be known to be used to conceal domestic and international robberies, aka food stamp cut credit and economic sanctions, to explain whydiplomatic, retaliatory, statistical and judicial measures have not been immediately effective. Increasing tariffs reduces international trade volume, yet Customs revenues are

136

reported to be skyrocketing since FY 18 tariff increases, despite protesting partners, and 0.2% real economic growth downgrade by the UN in 2018. The US is obligated by the Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reduction (2007) to reduce tariffs by 0.97 annual reduction from 2016 rates, to redress one Presidential term of trade war. The maximum duration of any safeguard measure is four years, unless it is extended consistent with the Agreement's provisions. In particular, a measure may be extended only if its continuation is found to be necessary to prevent or remedy serious injury, and only if evidence shows that the industry is adjusting. The initial period of application plus any extension normally cannot exceed eight years. In addition, safeguard measures in place for longer than one year must be progressively liberalized at regular intervals during the period of application. If a measure is extended beyond the initial period of application, it can be no more restrictive during this period than it was at the end of the initial period, and it shouldcontinue to be liberalized. Any measure of more than three years duration must be reviewed at mid-term. If appropriate based on that review, the Member applying the measure must withdraw it or increase the pace of its liberalization. The agreement says the exporting country (or exporting countries) can seek compensation through consultations. If no agreement is reached the exporting country can retaliate by taking equivalent action — for instance, it can raise tariffs on exports from the country that is enforcing the safeguard measure under Arts. XII and XIX of the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs (1994).

1. In the Case concerning rights of nationals of the United States of America in Morocco, Judgment of August 27th, 1952 : I.C.J. Reports 1952, p. 176, the International Court of Justice held that the import controls were discriminatory. The Court ruled 6 to 5 against US exemption from taxes, and 6 to 5 on wholesale price taxation at the customs house forwhich US nationals were due a refund. The guiding principles were economic liberty without any inequality and equality of treatment in commercial matters. Paragraph 98 of Alleged violations of the 1955 Treaty of Amity, Economic Relations, and Consular Rights (Islamic Republic of Iran v. United States of America) No. 175 3 October 2018 held, States must remove any impediments arising to the free exportation of goods required for humanitarian needs, such as (i) medicines and medical devices; and (ii) foodstuffs and agricultural commodities; as well as goods and services required for the safety of (agriculture) civil aviation, such as (iii) spare parts, equipment and associated services (including warranty, maintenance, repair services and safety-related inspections) necessary for (irrigation and agricultural equipment) civil aircraft. To this end, the UnitedStates must ensure that licenses and necessary authorizations are granted and that payments and other transfers of funds are not subject to any restriction in so far as they relate to the goods and services referred to. The US now owes $3.6 billion for Certain Iranian Assets (Iran v. United States) (2019) $7.2 billion with 100 percent inflation to cope with contempt of the panic disordered US Ambassadors to the UN since 1980 when they began insanely imposing economic sanctions against their rescuers United States Diplomatic and Consular Staff in Tehran (United States of America v. Islamic Republic of Iran) (1979-1981).

C. The March 2020 Treasury monthly report the withholding on wages of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and other allegedly non-resident aliens under 26USC§1441 needs to be repealed pursuant to Sec. 207 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§407. The conspiracy to withhold regular priced documents has a $10 limit on such cruel and unusual travel documents under Art. I Sec. 9 Cl. 1 of the US

137

Constitution. DACA class members are entitled to a US passport at regular price, indicating either that they are a U.S. Citizen or Stateless under common articles 26-29 of the Conventions Relative to the Status of Refugees and Stateless Persons (1951)(1954). Unpopular migration policy instantly caused zero revenue growth FY 17 & 18. Social Security is no longer declaring any suspicious payroll tax deficiencies in the 2020 AnnualReport, before taking into consideration COVID-19 pandemic unemployment rate greaterthan 12% and preliminary 10% revenue decline estimate for 2020.

1. The Office of Heath Affairs must be re-authorized by Congress for an estimated $150 million, up to $250 million for a Federal Air Physician or Practical Nurse, perhaps at airports. OHA will ensure all international travelers are properly vaccinated and staff receives Pneumovax and any other irregular vaccine that might be necessary due to the international nature of their post. OHA will ensure transportation centers treat the public,to a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème to the nose or chest, or, at cost, to other, more expensive, corticosteroid to instantly cure contagious coronavirus nasal slime, fluid filled chest, or environmental mold allergy, and if they are not cured, they don’t travel. Stewardesses might prefer the smell of equally effective and possibly safer essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint. A federal air physician would ensure airport medical kits have prescription Oseltamivir (Tamiflu), Zanamivir (Relenza) or Amantadine (Symmetrel) to treat influenza.

§89 Department of Defense

A. The Army, Navy, and Marine Corps were established in 1775, in concurrence with theAmerican Revolution. On June 30, 1775, the Second Continental Congress established 69Articles of War to govern the conduct of the Continental Army. The War Department was established in 1789 and was renamed the Department of Defense (DoD) in the Secretary of Defense Transfer Order No. 40 of July 22, 1949. The Irreversible Implementation of the National Defense Strategy FY 21 indicates that CR 18 $611 billionDefense spending limit was totally overruled to take the budget from $606 billion FY 17 to $670 billion FY 18 to $718 billion FY 20 in less than 42 months, 3 ½ years (Revelation 13:10). Spending goes down to $705 billion FY 21. Having successfully made the leap over economic depression DoD is going back to rescue UN Peacekeeping and the US Treasury. DoD must ensure the State Department pays their UN Peacekeeping Assessment and Arrears. DoD must take full financial responsibility for rejecting, in whole or in part, hyperinflationary Energy Department Weapons Program plan in excess of 3% inflation. Stupefying, valuable accounting time wasting, patently unnecessary Global War on Terrorism / Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) accounting reporting requirements, originally used to finance the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, government-wide discretionary/mandatory as well as other toxic social security abuse propaganda must be repealed under 2USC§901(b) pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction under 44USC§3508. The Department of Defense (DoD) has a duty to change its name to Military Department (MD) and declare the difference between their congressional budget request, and total federal outlays of the three Air Force, Army and Navy Military Departments as undistributed offsetting receipts in their annual budget.

Source: US Department of Defense. Fiscal Year 2021 Budget Request. Irreversible Implementation of the National Defense Strategy. Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller/CFO). February 2020. $15.4 billion FY 21 additional Air Force request for Space Force.

1. The Air Force has had a long-standing margin of error in their accounting and their FY 21 budget must be held liable for two counts of concealment of assets regarding both Space Force funding in conspiracy with OMB, and <2,000 active warhead Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) limit compliance in conspiracy with the hyperinflationary Energy Department Weapons Program referred to the Board of Contract Appeals for reasonable rejection of payment, due to hyperinflationary plans it would not be wise for any Department to pay for pursuant to section 92 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 under 42USC§2122 and 18USC§1956(c)(7)(D). Title X of the Congressional Budget andImpoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) determined to be excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). The FY 2021 Space Force budget is approximately $15.4 billion and must be sustained by the Air Force, to prevent perpetuation of defense-wide accounting myth to conceal, complicate and obfuscate OMB’s duty to account for undistributed offsetting receipts of the congressional war fund, of equal magnitude to the Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy perpetuation of the OMB Independent Agency myth. The FY 21 Air Force budget must not be reduced because of the creation of a $15.4 billion Space Force budget by the Air Force. The $15.4 billion FY21 Space Case is in addition to the Air Force budget and subtracted from undistributed offsetting receipts. The US Air Force budget must take care that they pay for space command, despite their illusory transfer FY 21, and defense-wide deception of the Green Book, it is very important that all costs of the many military commands are born by the three executive military departments - Air Force, Army and Navy. A Space Supplement is called for to correct the FY 21 Air Force underestimate pursuant to the Anti-deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1515.

2. The creation of Space Force realigns the alien presence and doctrine of the US militaryin outer space and in foreign nations with the prohibition of the Secretary-General under Art. 3 of the Agreement Governing the Activities of States on the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies (1984) and Prevention of an Arms Race in Outer Space (2006). Space

139

Force budget must provide support for NASA in their doctrine – e.g. 3% inflation for goods consuming government services. The Air Force budget admits Space Force funding is a critical first step to combat emerging doctrines, space threats and requirements and transitioning military space operations from combat support to warfighting. It protects and defends highly-capable satellite systems, develops a broad range of defensive and offensive options, fielding robust and resilient space systems and capabilities to deceive and confuse our adversaries (Air Force budget). The imaginary transfer includes: space-related Weapon Systems and Operations, Weapon System Sustainment/Central Asset Management, Major Command (MAJCOM) Support, Education and Training, Space-Related Air Force Elements, and Space-Related Headquarters. The Air Force has a duty to correct the accounting error that they do not fund US Space Command FY 21, to defend the continued solvency of the Department of Defense and sanity of OMB, under the Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508. The Green Book Defense Budget study conspires to waste a little time with OMB to call undistributed offsetting receipt math – defense-wide. The Air Force budget has a duty to pay for the Space Force they claim to create, otherwise would be lost in the outer space ofdefense-wide myth and madness. There must be enough undistributed offsetting receipts to ensure the total war fund is adequately funded for the eventuality of total war. Undistributed offsetting receipts must be easy to account for or else the worst, most deceptive and most deceivable DoD accountants, i.e. Air Force, lose huge amounts of money, that might be needed in time of war. DoD undistributed offsetting receipts reduce the federal deficit and declare the profit of peace. US Space Force Air Force budget doctrine has a duty to serve and support the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in pursuit of dangerous missions landing men and women on theMoon, Mars and stable 3% inflation for goods consuming, government services.

B. The President is Commander in Chief under Art. II §2 of the US Constitution and he nominates the Secretary of Defense with the confirmation of the Senate under 10USC§111. The Secretary of Defense is the civilian leader of the Department and he exercises his authority over how the military is trained and equipped under 10USC§113. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the principal military advisor to the President, the National Security Council, and the Secretary of Defense. Its board of directors consists of the Chairman, his deputy, the Vice Chairman, and the four-star headsof the four military services. The authority to deploy troops and exercise military power is directed, with the advice of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to the nine unified commands. Since President Bush Jr. presented false evidence to the United Nations to justify feudal war with Iraq, to optimize maintenance of international peace and security, the United States has an international treaty obligation to report their overseas deployments and render the proceeds of their international sanctions to the UN Security Council with right to appeal to the International Court of Justice. Most significantly, the United States has a duty to report all overseas deployments, the types ofarmed forces, their national location, including rights of passage, nature of the facilities and foreign military assistance to be provided, and whether or not they engage in hostile fire, for the collective authorization of the Security Council, support, criticism and abolition by individual occupied nations, and professional peace negotiation by fully funded, US soldier employing, UN Peacekeeping Military Staff Committee under Arts. 43 and 47 of the UN Charter. 1. The military is divided into four main forces that are each led by a four-star general. Four commanders, including the Commander-in-chief, have worldwide responsibilities for 737 official US military bases worldwide, worth more than $127 billion and covering at least 687,347 acres in some 130 foreign countries. Defense employees are deployed inmore than 146 countries. 473,881 troops and civilians were overseas both afloat and ashore. In March 31, 2004 there were 110,494 US soldiers deployed in NATO countries. 101,610 deployed in Asian Pacific nations. 150,000 deployed in the Middle East and Central Asia. 2,201 deployed in the western hemisphere. 770 deployed in Sub-Saharan Africa. The US Department of Defense (DoD) administrates an estimated $50-$100 billion abroad annually to support US military bases and foreign military assistance, not including war time surges. In 2005 the US Military had around 737 bases in 63 countries.Brand new military bases have been built since September 11, 2001in seven countries. Intotal, there are normally 255,065 US military personnel deployed abroad, not including war time surges, with a total of 845,441 different buildings and equipment.

2. U.S. Strategic Command is one of nine unified commands under the Department of Defense (DoD). Headquartered at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska, USSTRATCOM is responsible for strategic deterrence, global strike, and operating the Defense Department'sGlobal Information Grid. It also provides a host of capabilities to support the other combatant commands, including strategic warning; integrated missile defense; and globalcommand, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR). Established Oct. 1, 2002, USSTRATCOM has made many contributions to the national defense. For example, it has provided intelligence, planning and cyber support to coalition forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. It monitors orbiting satellites and space debris, allowing high-value spacecraft like the International Space Station to maneuver and avoid collision. It has fielded systems to provide limited

142

protection against ballistic missile attack. In February 2008, it destroyed a satellite that was about to re-enter the earth's atmosphere. In 2011, it supported U.S. Africa Command's operations against Libya in a variety of ways, including long-range conventional strikes and ISR. USSTRATCOM supports operations worldwide, sharing its broad portfolio of capabilities with the other combatant commands, while maintaining the readiness of the nation's nuclear deterrent. b. Special Operations Command is responsible for special military support. c. Transportation Command moves materials andpeople around the world.

2. A unified combatant command (UCC) is a United States Department of Defense command that is composed of forces from at least two Military Departments and has a broad and continuing mission. These commands are established to provide effective command and control of U.S. military forces, regardless of branch of service, in peace and war. They are organized either on a geographical basis (known as "area of responsibility", AOR) or on a functional basis, such as special operations, power projection, or transport. UCCs are "joint" commands with specific badges denoting their affiliation. The creation and organization of the unified combatant commands is legally mandated in 10USC§161–§168. Each unified command is led by a combatant commander (CCDR), who is a four-star general or admiral. CCDRs exercise combatant command (COCOM), a specific type of nontransferable command authority over assigned forces, regardless of branch of service, that is vested only in the CCDRs by federal law in 10USC§164. The chain of command for operational purposes (per the Goldwater–Nichols Act) goes from the President through the Secretary of Defense to the nine combatant commanders. Combatant command authority is essential to military doctrine. Unified combatant command costs are born by the military departments, exceptfor Special Operations Command who produces a budget.

3. Five commanders have geographical responsibilities. a. European Command covers more than 13 million square miles and includes 93 countries and territories, to include Iceland, Greenland, the Azores, more than half of the Atlantic ocean, the Caspian sea, and Russia. b. Northern Command oversees the defense of the continental United States, coordinates security and military relationships with Canada and Mexico, and direct military assistance to U.S. civil authorities. c. Central Command oversees the balance of the Mid-East, parts of Africa and west Asia, and part of the Indian Ocean. d. Southern Command guards U.S. interests in the southern hemisphere, including Central America, South America and the Caribbean. e. Pacific Command covers 50 percent of the Earth's surface including Southwest Asia, Australia and shares with U.S. Northern Command responsibility for Alaska.

5. Neutral citation of the 10 Commandments is found in both Exodus 20:3-17 and Deuteronomy 5:7-21 where God spoke all these words:

1. You shall have no other gods before me. (Exodus 20:3)(Deuteronomy 5:7)

2. You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them for I, the Lord your god, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a

143

thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. (Exodus 20:4-6)(Deuteronomy 5:8-10)

3. You shall not misuse the name for the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. (Exodus 20:7)(Deuteronomy 5:11)

4. Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six day s you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, noryour animals, nor the alien within your grates. For in six days the Lord made the heavensand the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. (Exodus 20:8-11)(Deuteronomy 5:12-15)

5. Honor your father and your mother so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you. (Exodus 20:12)(Deuteronomy 5:16)

6. You shall not murder. (Exodus 20:13)(Deuteronomy 5:17)

7.You shall not commit adultery. (Exodus 20:14)(Deuteronomy 5:18)

8. You shall not steal. (Exodus 20:15)(Deuteronomy 5:19)

9. You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. (Exodus 20:16)(Deuteronomy 5:20)

10. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife,or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor. (Exodus 20:17)(Deuteronomy 5:21)

§90 Department of Education

A. The original Department of Education was created in 1867 to collect information on schools and teaching that would help the States establish effective school systems and recreated in the Department of Education Re-organization Act of May 4, 1980 under 20USC§3508. Its mission is to promote student achievement and preparation for global competitiveness by fostering educational excellence and ensuring equal access. Today, the Department's early learning, elementary, and secondary education programs annually serve approximately 18,328 school districts and more than 55 million students attending more than 98,000 public and 34,000 private schools. Department programs also provide grant, loan, and work-study assistance to more than 12 million postsecondary students at approximately 6,000 institutions of higher education. At $11,000 per pupil United States has the second highest education spending per capita in the world. However, the US also has the highest rate of child poverty in industrialized nations, since the largest child welfare theft in history 1996-2000. The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education would like for teachers to contribute to federal social security insurance, in order to receive better than $200 a month benefits if they become disabled and retire early under Title I and II of the Social Security Act.

1. To prevent snot nosed child death in schools that reopen for the 2020-2021 school year, it is essential that school nurses are prepared to topically apply Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) aromatherapy to the infected nose and/or chest to cure coronavirus and mold allergies. Corticosteroids are the definitive curative medical treatment for coronavirus and mold allergies, however overuse causes Cushing's disease. Hydrocortisone can be purchased for a dollar a tube and is highly effective whenapplied to the nose and/or chest. Entrances, hallways and classrooms can be sterilized with humidifiers and cleansers containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint. Lysol concentrates eucalyptol. School bathroom soaps should contain these essential oils for students to wash their nose with. If schools are unable to prescribe hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint (HELP), homeschooling and online college courses are advised to avoid evil quarantines and possibly infectious contact tracing and diagnostic testing, without a dab of HELP. Although coronavirus is the only cold with a cure, if it is untreated the lungs can fill with fluid causing death. Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP).

B. The final ruling of the 2020 President’s three-year budget is that total discretionary spending for education rose from $63 billion FY 18 cut from $68 billion FY 17, to $68 billion CR 18, to $70.6 billion FY 18 appropriation, $500 million more than $70.1 billion3% annual growth. 0.7% FY 19 and 2.3% FY 20 discretionary spending growth is less than 3% and it is important that FY 21 education budget is 3% inflation from FY 16 - $76.2 billion FY 21. Abusing the number of the beast in the $66,561 million FY 21 discretionary budget request, however playfully. Mandatory outlays shall be estimated toincrease to from $6 billion FY 18 to $7 billion FY 21 within 42 months (Revelation 13:10) and Advance Appropriations to inflate 3%. Total federal outlays for the Department of Education are estimated $83 billion FY 21. The $66.6 billion FY 21 discretionary budget cut request, from $72.87 billion FY 20 is a crime of genocide that must be suspected as being causative of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as representative of nationwide school closures for which education institutions must receive full-funding.

1. Advance appropriations are appropriations that become available for obligation in the fiscal year following appropriation. For example advance appropriations for the Department of Education (ED) in the fiscal year 2018 appropriations act become available October 1, 2018, the start of fiscal year 2019. All advances in the Department of Education are appropriated for formula-allocated State grant programs. State grant programs generally allocate funds on July 1, but programs with advance appropriations obligate some of their appropriations on July 1 and the remainder – the advance portion –on October 1, 3 months later. Both portions support programs in the same school year. Advance appropriations are synonymous with undistributed offsetting receipts for the purpose of reducing the federal deficit. Most of the Department’s 120-plus programs are funded through discretionary appropriation acts enacted each fiscal year. This includes all funding for Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Budget cuts do not help proposals to pass. Much time is wasted trying to incorporate the new accounting software report into the old table, that is already full of rejected proposals. It is requestedthat the Department produce a regular Microsoft Office table, that is organized consistently with historical records, that only require exclusion of [federal lending programs] from the total budget request, rather than continue to use the new virtually in-auditable software.

C. In the aftermath of four years of adversarial education budget cut contests, it is held the budget cut proposals end up costing slightly more than stable growth, and constitute deprivation of relief under 18USC§246, deprivation of rights under color of law under 18USC§241 and conspiracy against rights under 18USC§242 pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. Budget cuts appear to be an obsessive-compulsive disorder of the obese and golfers in want of a prohibition against retaliation and coercion Sec. 503 of the Americans with Disabilities Act under 42USC§12203. Budget cuts must not be imposed upon federal education finance that should grow 3 percent annually to afford consumer price inflation in goods consuming education services. Retaliation is hard wired into the Department budget request with computer fraud and inconsistent year to year accounting software that is virtually in-auditable, calling for a printer to check off scrambled rows when they are entered, or to do it her unprecedented way from FY 19 without checking it against historical records. The Department is requested to return to using a normal Microsoft Office table organizedconsistent with historical budget request FY 22. The Education budget has largest margin of error of any Cabinet agency. ED budget requests fraudulently reduce the total with student loan revenues that must be excluded, when it is not erroneously billing the General Fund for [privately financed federal student lending programs], that must be excluded from the budget total pursuant to the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C).

§91 Department of Energy

A. The Department of Energy was created by the U.S. Department of Energy Organization Act (Public Law 95-91) on August 4, 1977, centralizing the responsibilities of the Federal Energy Administration, the Energy Research and Development

146

Administration, the Federal Power Commission and other energy-related government programs in a Cabinet level department. The Budget eliminates the Advanced Research Projects Agency—Energy (ARPA-E) program, the Title XVII Innovative Technology Loan Guarantee Program, the Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing Loan Program, and the Tribal Energy Loan Guarantee Program. ARPA-E elimination facilitates opportunities to integrate the positive aspects of ARPA-E into DOE’s applied energy research programs including through changes to the implementation of the Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR/STTR) program. Loan programs are eliminated because the private sector is better positioned to finance deployment of commercially viable projects neither the Treasury, nor Energy Department, accurately accounts for. Investments in transmission assets are best carried out by the private sector with appropriate market and regulatory incentives. To further achieve fiscal discipline and reduce taxpayer risk the request proposes to repeal the Western Area Power Administration’s (WAPA) borrowing authority that finances the construction of electricity transmission projects.

1. Some programs must be defended. The Defense budget >$600 FY 18 - >$700 billion FY 20 in less than 42 months (Revelation 13:10) is obligated to defend its lawful hyperinflation by civilly advocating for 3% growth of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Service to $2.8 billion FY 21, 2.5% growth for Environmental Management to $7.6 billion FY 21 and pay for a second counter-hyperinflationary penalty year of $7 billion FY 20 & 21 for Science, and maybe the US could afford a Hadron collider. The hyperinflationary FY 21 weapons activities budget proposal of the National Nuclear Security Administration NNSA must be red flagged as excessive for the purposes of TitleX of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) determined to be excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). Do not be fooled by the unlikely sale of the Northeast Gas and Strategic Petroleum Reserves, for the same $36 billion total price, the $4.7 billion civilian program deficiency could be paid for by reducing NNSA Weapons activities spending request from $15.6 billion to $10.7 billion FY 21, a -14% reduction from the previous year, but 3% more than 3% growth since FY 17, after 21% FY 18-19 and 13% FY 19 – 20 hyperinflation. The NNSA has failed to report on the <2,000 warhead limit of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and their hyperinflationary demands are a harm to self, others and extremely destructive to the environment. After trying budget cuts FY 17 and CR 18, and hyperinflation FY 19 and FY 20 Energy Department spending is expected to moderate at $36 billion FY 21 or $35.4 billion if the Northeast Gas Reserve and Strategic Petroleum Reserve sell, with 2.5% government and 3% services growth, with a nearly unavoidable $600 million FY 21supplement from $35.4 billion to $36 billion, pursuant to the Anti-deficiency Act of 1982under 31USC§1515.

B. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or the Commission) is an independent agency within the Department of Energy (DOE) that regulates the transmission and wholesale sale of electricity and gas in interstate commerce, and regulates the transportation of oil by pipelines in interstate commerce. FERC also reviewsproposals to build interstate natural gas pipelines, natural gas storage projects, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, and licenses and inspects non- Federal hydropower projects. The Commission protects the reliability and cybersecurity of the Nation’s bulk-power system through the establishment and enforcement of mandatory reliability standards and oversees environmental matters related to natural gas pipeline and non-Federal hydro projects. The Commission enforces regulatory requirements through the imposition of civil penalties and other means. FERC’s mission is to assist consumers in obtaining economically efficient, safe, reliable, and secure energy services at a reasonable cost through appropriate regulatory and market means, and collaborative efforts. FERC seeks that rates, terms, and conditions of jurisdictional service are just, reasonable, and not unduly discriminatory or preferential, relying on competitive marketswhere appropriate. Through its oversight and enforcement authorities, FERC seeks to increase compliance with rules and regulations and detect and deter market manipulation.FERC’s responsibilities also include promoting the development of safe, reliable, and secure energy infrastructure that serves the public interest.

1. Standing Rock Indian Reservation is not believed to be adequately compensated by Indian Energy Guarantee elimination and Indian Energy Office budget cut patronization, for most decreased life expectancy in the nation after homeless pipeline protestors were hosed in 20° F weather under 18CFR§2.1c. The World Bank reports, the monthly average crude oil prices plunged 50 percent between January and March 2020. Prices reached an historic low in April with some benchmarks trading at negative levels. They are expected to average $35 per barrel in 2020, a sharp downward revision from the October forecast and a 43 percent drop from the 2019 average of $61 per barrel. Energy prices overall (which also include natural gas and coal) are expected to average 40 percent lower in 2020 but see a sizeable rebound in 2021. Metal prices also fell in early 2020. The biggest declines were in copper and zinc, which are particularly associated with global economic activity. Metal prices are projected to drop 13 percent overall in

153

2020 as slowing demand and the shutdown of key industries weigh heavily on the market. Power companies need to sustain environmental management, ie. Blaze a non-toxic trail by Diablo Nuclear Power Plant south of Monte del Oro State Park to Avila beach, without the use of guns, tazers or IDs by Rangers. Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) has gone bankrupt due to inability to pay multiple arson claims. California Governor Newsom is believed to have also gone bankrupt extinguishing the hydrocarbon heating pumps in the Arctic Ocean when he took office January 1, 2019 until New York v. Commerce Department (April 2019) and again for finder’s fee March 2020 just before a ghost ship was quarantined, COVID-19 pandemic struck and the social chemistry regarding corticosteroids became more retarded than TBC. Hypothetical finder's keeper's: Oil refineries should be prepared to convert self-combusting hydrocarbons, suchas styrene, to a more stable hydrocarbon, on short notice; oil tankers or war ships must cable self-igniting styrene railcars out of the ocean, after extinguishing the styrene for three months with 15 parts per million of 4-tertiary-butyl-catechol (TBC).

§92 Department of Health and Human Services

A. The foundation of the public health service is typically attributed to July 16, 1798, when President John Adams signed a bill into law that created what we now know as the U.S. Public Health Service by establishing the U.S. Marine Hospital Service, predecessorto today’s U.S. Public Health Service, to provide health care to sick and injured merchantseamen under 24USC§14. The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is advised to graduate into two separate agencies, the Public Health Department (PHD) and the Department of Human Services (DHS), with two separate congressional budget justifications, as should have been done by the Department of Education Re-organization Act on May 4, 1980, under 20USC§3508. This is the story of Administration for Children and Families (ACF) initially backing down from $61.7 billion FY 19 to $61.2 billion FY 20 to $55 billion FY 21 getting support from the HHS Coronavirus Corticosteroid Counterfeit CARES Act giving Congress, and health agency budget cuts, to make the leap to $70 billion FY 21 in less than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). ACF must sustain 3% growth in programs again budget cut persecution, such as refugee programs and low-income energy assistance programs and administrate the remainder as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) benefits for families impoverished by the COVID-19 pandemic. ACF authorized apportionments necessitate deficiency or supplemental appropriation under 31USC§1515 to prevent failure of HHS to pay legal child-support obligations under 18USC§228. Even with $15 billion more ACF spending total outlays are significantly less historically, adding up the CMS kabocha doll, going down $100 billion from $1.4 to $1.3 trillion FY 21. The federal deficit is further reduced by reporting $140 billion CMS advanced appropriations as undistributed offsetting receipts. $240 billion deficit reduction for only a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème to the nose and chest to cure the COVID-19 pandemic, coronavirus is the cheapest and easiest of cold viruses to cure.

1. The superior accounting deficiency in the HHS budget is the CMS outlay overestimate negligence to advocate for federal deficit reduction by declaring Medicaid advanced appropriations as undistributed offsetting receipts pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502(b). The minor deficiencies, that confusingly occur where outlays are ever so slightly greater than budget authority, in the HHS and Commerce Department budgets, are not significant enough to warrant covered furlough under 31USC§1341. Nonetheless, the HHS accountant has negligently prohibited obligations and expenditures under §1517 and these authorized apportionments necessitate deficiency or supplemental appropriations under §1515. To be internally consistent and

157

make an effort to reduce the deficit, HHS budget table is requested to define outlays and program level, having abused budget authority with minutiae, better add-up CMS outlays and program levels, and report undistributed offsetting receipts estimated by CMS as Medicaid Advance Appropriations in the FY 22 HHS budget-in-brief. To audit the HHS budget, it is necessary to first fill out the CMS outlay and program level worksheets, withdata from the Annual Report of the Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund and Supplemental Medical Insurance Trust Fund and CMS Justification of Estimates for Appropriations Committee, because the HHS budget CMS budget doesn’t add up, and review federal outlays and program levels by sub-agency.

B. Substance Use-Disorder Prevention that Promotes Opioid Recovery and Treatment (SUPPORT) for Patients and Communities Act of 2018 (P.L. 115-271) was successful in reducing opiate deaths, for the first time since fentanyl hit the market, now the Congress is counterfeiting a $2.2 -$3.3 trillion speed ticket, ultra vires corticosteroid. To redress hyperinflation in medical bills, that cause an estimated 67% of bankruptcies today, up from 8% in 1980, it is necessary to nullify and repeal 'Medical records and payments' from the Fair Credit Reporting Act under 15USC§1681a(x)(1). Since 1996 the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) impersonating Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control (HCFAC) robs four times as much from State Medical License Boards as they cost, driving down health sector employment, while health sector overestimation and hyperinflation continues unabated since the 1970s. HCFAC must be abolished to redress the robbery of 10 million Aid for Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) benefits 1996-2000 for non-support of legal child support obligations under 18USC§228. HCFAC is held responsible for the on-going poisonous and torturous monoclonal antibody B&E of social security address entry, by need to repeal 2USC§901(b).

C. The health lesson in the HHS budget is better than ever, but does not prescribe medicine, nor cure. For all its confession regarding the increase in infant and maternal mortality due to continuing HHS child welfare robbery, the HHS budget is not worth as much as a jab of Pneumovax at 65 or antibiotic prescription to tolerate talking to a doctor immunized against S. pyogenes. Bathe in pillars of Epsom salt to cure hospital acquired methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) + Streptococcus spp. = toxic shock syndrome to solve PDR v.

HHS must Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) pass the Convention on Pandemic Treatment or be disabled by affluenza/germaphobia. §93 Department of Housing and Urban Development

A. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) was created at the end ofthe Great Depression in the Housing Act of 1937 shortly after the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) was created in 1934 to give homebuyers access to reasonably priced mortgages under fair terms. The Department of Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965 created HUD as Cabinet-level agency. HUD’s mission is to create strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for all. FY 21 HUD budget authority is reported be less than outlays, yet employment is projected to increase from 7,670 FY 20 FTEs to 7,784 FY 21 despite the December 22, 2018 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act furlough threat to the Anti-deficiency act under 31USC§1341(a). Reason being,the mathematical deficiency is illusory, it is necessary to prohibit the method as madness under §1517 and continue to redress budget cuts with higher rates of compensation than agreeable 3% inflation from FY 17 whereas authorized apportionments necessitate deficiency or supplemental appropriations under §1515. To correct the HUD budget-in-brief introduction it necessary to define that government outlays are responsible only for administrative and loan guaranty costs, and all other lending costs are privately financed and should not have any incidental effects on governmental receipts or outlays under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). It is necessary to prove balance is available, for all accounts, budget authority is more than federal outlays, advanced appropriations are undistributed offsetting receipts, private receipts are more than private outlays, and that total public andprivate revenues are more than total outlays under 31USC§1502 to overcome dependencyon discretionary / mandatory gibberish and enjoin other federal agencies to repeal 2USC§901(b). Manufactured House Fees Trust (MHFT) is the only [offsetting receipts] accepted ($16 million) to reduce federal outlays, the rest are dedicated to private lending programs. Discretionary is redefined to be federal and mandatory to be private. The .dochas 10 days to delete FY 21 request column and adopt the supplement under 24CFR§1.8.

Source: Carson, Ben. Housing and Urban Development Fiscal Year 2019 & 2021 Budget-in-brief

1. The supplemental Fiscal Year 2020 budget request for federal outlays is $56.2 billion, -2.9% less than HUD (Gross) discretionary outlays (Gross) and 8.6% more than (Net) discretionary - exactly the same as the HUD FY 21 Budget-in-brief estimates for FY 20. The FY 21 Supplemental is the first HUD budget that claims to exactly estimate federal outlays, report undistributed offsetting receipts and differentiate between federal and private revenues and outlays. Great care must be used when adding subtotals and totals - make two copies of entered data in scrap file, one for budget authority and the other for outlays, delete unnecessary rows pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508. After a 0.7% cut FY 17-FY 18, budget cuts are not tolerated anymore and the HUD budget total has been severely punished for their attempted discrimination, withtotal federal outlays increasing 8% FY 18 - FY 19 and 9% to $56.2 billion FY 20. Total (discretionary) federal outlays for HUD FY 21 are estimated to be $62.9 billion FY 21, a

160

12% increase from FY 20, rather than -19% decrease to $47.4 billion FY 21. 3% growth from FY 17 or better, the new $5.2 billion FY 21 Moving to Work Program and $50 billion increase to [$550 billion GNMA limit], should settle all foreclosure/ eviction moratorium claims under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act CARES Act by October 2020. Sec. 4022 provides for a foreclosure moratorium and consumer right to request forbearance on Federally backed mortgage loan is extended to multifamily properties under Sec. 4023. There is a temporary moratorium on eviction filings for a 120-day period of eviction relief for tenants in federally-backed housing, who may not be served with an eviction notice from March 27, 2020 until July 25, 2020 and the notice must give 30 days to leave the property (Aug. 24, 2020).

2. HUD must perfect a consolidated balance sheet to declare federal outlay and program level inflation under 24CFR§1.8 and 24USC§153. Free Camping […] row is to be included in the Self-Sufficiency Program FY 21 Supplemental and FY 22 to solicit HUD support for city to city to National Trail System trails and planting of a trail mix of fruit and nut trees and wild edibles. HUD shall solicit for $4 billion of new programs of relief no later than FY 23 for FY 24, to make the leap from $66 billion FY 23 to $70 billion FY24, whereas no persecution regarding the number of the beast shall last longer than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). While two-thirds of HUD personnel may voluntarily work at66 field offices, that does not mean they can be allowed to persecute themselves and others with the number of the beast. All accounts must be tested for 3% growth from FY 17. To punish budget cuts, incidental retaliatory hyperinflation is treated to agreement or 1% growth FY 20-FY 21 although in excess of 3% inflation from FY 17, and underachievers are granted 3% from FY 17 on the condition that in the future 3% inflation is expected in all outlays.

B. Due to hyperinflation Section 8 contract renewals grow only 1% from the previous year. To reduce demand for contract renewal inflation in excess of 3%, administrative fees are increased 3% annually, 12% from FY 17. Section 8 Tenant Vouchers are also increased 3% annually from FY 17 on competitive basis with the new move-to-work program. To prevent hyperinflation mainstream voucher renewal inflation is limited to 1% FY 20 – FY 21. The mobility voucher is accepted as compensation for Sec. 8 Tenant Protection Vouchers. Disaster displacement is excluded from the outlay total and included in the program level. Advanced Appropriations are excluded from outlay and program level, to be reported as undistributed offsetting receipts to OMB, at the end of the budget outlay and program level totals.

1. Public Housing Capital Fund growth is limited to 1% FY 20-FY 21 due to hyperinflation. The Self-Sufficiency Program has been used to terminate outlays for certain programs, Family Self-Sufficiency, Jobs Plus Demonstration, that are now privately financed and Residential Opportunity and Support Services (ROSS) was terminated. The Public Housing Operating fund outlay are increased to 3% inflation since FY 17. Public Housing Demolition, Emergency Disaster Reserve and Financial, Physical Assessment and Administrative and Judicial Receivership proposals are again rejected from the Public Housing Fund. Lead Based Paint Hazards and Lead Waterpipe Testing are transferred from the Public Housing Capital Fund to Public Housing Fund with large funding increases, all around, “shortfall protection” and new obligations are nosubstitute for 3% inflation in PHF operating funds. Choice neighborhoods is sustained bydemand for lead based hazard removal in New York City and elsewhere. The new $5.2 billion Moving to Work (MTW) fund shall settle new COVID-19 pandemic CARES Act 4 month rent/mortgage free petitioners.

2. Native American Program (NAP) formula grants are automatically increased to $723 million after more than 42 months $600 and $700 million (Revelation 13:10) pursuant to 12% inflation from $646 million FY 17. Other NAP programs are amortized to remain the same as prior year levels. The Native Hawaiian Loan Guarantee Fund changes the name of the proposal from (2 million) credit subsidy to $2 million program account FY 21 outlays to guarantee [$18 million FY 21] loan program level. All Native American and Hawaiian Program are subtotaled. There is room to solicit free camping [...] to promote trail completion, in the Self-Sufficiency Category, for the collaboration of all Public and Indian Housing beneficiaries, in pursuit of federal recognition of HUD collaboration and ultimately HUD outlays for trails and free and legal camping in the wilderness and on city sidewalks and bar certified or court approved indigent defenders thereof. If funds and botanical know-how are available, city and tribal planners are advised to replant a trail mix of fruits, nuts and wild edibles on urban to rural interface trails that should connect the city with the wilderness, cities with other cities and the National Trail System to redress the crime of genocide, eg. destruction of or denial of access to food, shelter and other essentials of life pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020.

179

3. The 2021 President’s Budget requests $600 million, which is $225 million less than the 2020 enacted levels discriminates against the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996 under 25USC§4111 et seq. While the 2021 request does not include funding for Title VI Loan Guarantee subsidy, it includes up to $30 million in loan commitment authority which will be utilized against remaining unobligated credit subsidy provided in prior years. In January 2017, HUD published Housing Needs of American Indians and Alaska Natives in Tribal Areas pursuant to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 under 42USC§2000d. The study found that the physical housing problems for Indian households in tribal areas are much more severe than for U.S. households on average. It estimated that between 42,000 and 85,000 Native Americans are “doubled up” with family or friends, they are usually placed by a housing authority, two families to a trailer. because they have no place else to stay and would otherwise be staying in a homeless shelter, a place not meant for human habitation, or living on the streets. In tribal areas, homelessness often translates into overcrowding, and 68,000 units of new affordable housing are needed to replace substandard or overcrowded units. Native American program formula outlays have been persecuted with the number of the beast at $657 million FY 19, $641 million FY 20 and $685 million FY 21 for more than 42 months (Revelation 13:10) and the FY 22 budget must redress discrimination with $700 million FY 21 formula grants, 3% annual growth thereafter, plus constant $179 million spending for the loan guarantee, technical assistance, national or regional organization and new Indian Community Development Block Grant programs, 3% growth in Native Hawaiian programs as well under 24CFR§1.8. Therefore, total outlays for Native American Programs are assessed at $879 million FY 21, 6.6% more than $825 million FY20 that was 9.3% more than $755 millionFY 19. This hyperinflation in Native American Programs is necessary to prevent and punish hypocritical discrimination against the Native American race by a member of the black race, because of the relatively small and affordable size of Native American and Native Hawaiian programs, the hypocritical exploitation of Native Americans by Public and Indian Housing, bearing in mind that public land is held in trust for the Native Americans, the fact that Indian Energy Office subsidy cuts are unopposed by existing massive ugly electrical lines supplying reservation cities, and demonstrated need for public housing and campgrounds on reservations and nearby National Forests. In addition to fully funded Native American and Hawaiian Programs, tribal housing authorities are entitled to a fair share of all HUD programs under 42USC§2000d.

4. 1% growth for CDBG block grant Entitlement / Non-entitlement FY 20-FY 21. Insulararea CDBG is sustained at $7 million FY 21. $7.1 billion CDBG budget [Disaster assistance] was inappropriately distributed FY 17 and FY 19 and should have been excluded so as not to cause any irregularities to HUD outlays with [interagency receipts] under 2USC§661a(5)(A). Irrespective of the extra-insolvency of the CARES Act giving, thanks to the margin of error provided by several fictitious OMB rows, Other Defense Civil Programs, Allowances and Other Independent Agencies - the counterfeit t-bonds of the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), in custody of Customs aka/ Homeland Security, are respectable government [inter-agency receipts] under 31USC§ 5153 that must not incur any sort of deficiency or harmful, e.g. budget cut or program terminations, operation by OMB against the receiver under 31USC§1502. Community Development Loan guarantee limitation level is sustained at [$300 million]. 12% growth for SHOP since FY 17, $1 million addition as compensation for threatened budget cuts in other subprograms. 1% growth for HOME Formula Grants FY 20 – FY

180

21. 23% growth in Homeless Assistance Grants since FY 17 is accepted. The National Homeless Data Analysis is reauthorized at 3% growth from FY 17. Fast growing Youth Demonstration and technical assistance grow 1% from the previous year. Rapid Rehousing for DV Victims remains at $50 million FY 19- FY 21. 1% growth for Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) formula grants and competitivegrants from FY 20-FY 21.

5. Project Based Rental Assistance hyperinflation is accepted 3% annual growth hereafter. MOS Rehab is estimated 12% growth from FY 17. [Rental Assistance Demonstration]. Housing counseling assistance and administrative contract services are estimated 12% growth from FY 17 to be bumped up to $7 million after three years between $6 and $7 million (Revelation 13:10) in FY 23. Hyperinflation for Supportive Housing for the Elderly (Sec. 202) renewals – PRAC Renewals / Amendments is accepted on the condition of 3% annual growth, henceforth. Wish Demonstration Expenses are accepted substitute for Aging in Place Home Modification Grants Expenses. Housing for Persons with Disabilities FY 21 hyperinflation is accepted on the condition of 3% annual growth hereafter. FHA Fund administrative expenses increase 12% from FY 17. [$1 million] direct loan level, and [400,000] and [30,000] limitation is accepted. Manufactured Fees Trust Fund hyperinflation is accepted and subtotal corrected. Other Assisted Housing get 12% growth from FY 17, no Rental Assistance Demonstration Transfer […] is solicited.

C. GNMA’s $50 billion increase to [$550 billion] is accepted FY 21. Slight GNMA Salaries and Expenses and Research and Technology cut FY 20-FY21 is accepted on the basis of being in excess of 3% annual growth from FY 17. Research and Technology is increased. to 12% growth from FY 17. Fair Housing Initiatives Program is increased to 12% growth from FY 17 while other Fair Housing Activities remain the same. There is complete agreement in Office of Lead Hazard Control and Health Homes FY 21 budget plus 3% inflation every year thereafter. 12% growth from FY 17 for Management and Administration. Working Capital is accepted FY 21. Manufactured House Fees Trust (MHFT) is the only [offsetting receipts] accepted ($$) to reduce federal outlays, the rest are dedicated to private lending programs under 2USC661a(5)(A)(C).

1. Manufactured Housing Fees Trust (MHFT) are the only receipts that actually make a valid claim to subtract (-$16 million FY 21) from the Gross Federal (Discretionary) Budget Authority. The other receipts are all private (mandatory) receipts that equal budget authority. MHFT receipts must be relocated to just after Budget Authority (Gross) to calculate Federal (Discretionary) Budget Authority (Net) as if MHFT were the only federal (discretionary) revenue. Although there are other federal revenue funded programs, MHFT is the only program believed to contribute their profits towards HUD general revenues. Other sources of revenue are all dedicated to sustaining private lendingoperations that do not impact federal outlays or revenues 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). Private (Mandatory) Programs reflect end of year balances of certain discretionary programs, including updated Native American and Hawaiian Loan Guarantee Balances, that do not incur any deficiency to outlays or revenues. [Housing for the Elderly or Handicapped Fund Liquidating Account] must not be (discriminatorily) [distinguished] from other [Mandatory Balances] because the HECM privately distributes the effects of deceased under 24USC§420.

181

2. The 2021 President’s Budget must stop inconsistently requesting no subsidy budget authority for the Federal Housing Administration’s (FHA) General Insurance and SpecialRisk Insurance (GI/SRI) Fund, to ensure the $30 billion in loan guarantee commitment authority, and $1 million in direct loan authority, which is equal to the 2020 enacted levels, are adequately financed. The FHA General and Special Risk Program Account terminates FY 21 leaving all funds to the FHA Mutual Mortgage Insurance Capital Reserve Account. The $210.7 billion in loan volume projected for the entire MMI portfolio in 2021 is expected to generate $6.9 billion in negative subsidy receipts, which are transferred to the MMI Capital Reserve account, where they are available to cover any unexpected cost increases for the MMI portfolio. Ginnie Mae is requesting $550 billion in commitment authority, to remain available until September 30, 2022. Ginnie Mae, authorized by Title III of the National Housing Act, as amended (P.L. 73-479; codified at 12 USC§1716 et seq.). The agency collects fees for commitment authority sold to approved issuers. Ginnie Mae’s outstanding MBS portfolio has grown substantially since the 2008 housing crisis, increasing from less than $445 billion at the start of the 2008 housing crisis to over $2 trillion at the end of 2019. Ginnie Mae guaranteed $451.6 billion in 2019 supporting approximately 1.8 million housing units.

§94 Department of the Interior

A. The Bureau of Indian Affairs was established in 1824 under the War Department and was transferred to the Department of the Interior, originally created by Congress as the Home Department March 3, 1849. Interior manages more than 480 million acres, more than 671 million acres including 191 million acres of National Forests, or about 20 to 28 percent of the land area of the United States, 700 million acres of subsurface minerals, and nearly 760 million acres of submerged land in seven marine national monuments. The Department has jurisdiction over 1.7 billion acres of the Outer Continental Shelf. Interior manages 417 units of the national park system, 566 national wildlife refuges, 153national forests, 72 fish hatcheries, 21 national conservation areas and similarly designated areas, and 27 national monuments in BLM’s national conservation lands. Over 488,000 acres of high-priority abandoned coal mine sites have been reclaimed through the OSM’s Abandoned Mine Lands program. FWS acts to protect over 2,300 endangered and threatened species, more than 1,660 of which are in the United States. The Department maintained an ‘Indian email war FY14-FY20’ with 567 federally recognized Tribes in the lower 48 States and Alaska and provides support to a service population of more than two million people with 56 million surface acres and 59 million acres of subsurface mineral estates. There are 96 BIA-funded corrections programs and 190 bureau and tribal law enforcement programs. The BIE provides education services to 47,000 individual students in 23 States attending 183 elementary and secondary schools and dormitories and supports 33 BIE-funded community colleges, universities, and post-secondary schools. 1. Interior has nearly 70,000 employees located in approximately 2,400 locations across the United States, Puerto Rico, U.S. Territories, and Freely Associated States. The ForestService employs 33,000 for a total of 103,000. Interior benefits from approximately 580,000 volunteers who provide more than 10 million hours of service, valued at an estimated $243 million per year. Annually, more than 67 million visits are made to BLMpublic lands, nearly 324 million visits to national park units,235 to national forests, more than 50 million visits to national wildlife refuges and fish hatcheries, and more than 30

182

million visits to Reclamation recreation sites. The Department is the largest supplier and manager of water in the 17 western States. Reclamation manages 492 dams and 338 reservoirs that deliver water to 31 million people and one out of every five western farmers irrigating 10 million acres of farmland. Interior manages lands, subsurface rights, and offshore areas that produce approximately 20 percent of the Nation’s energy, including 17 percent of natural gas, 26 percent of oil, and 44 percent of coal. Federal lands also host projects that account for a significant portion of the Nation’s renewable energy generating capacity, including 15 percent of hydropower, four percent of wind-power, 42 percent of geothermal energy, and 34 percent of solar energy. Interior provides unbiased, multi-discipline science for use in understanding, mapping, and managing natural resources and hazards. Data are available to the public from over 8,200 stream-gages, 3,100 earthquake sensors and two earth observation satellites–the Landsat 7 and 8 missions, 155,000 USGS-authored citations and 82,000 USGS publications.

B. Current appropriations are federal outlays for agencies. Permanent appropriations are additional revenue funded operations that contribute to agency budget authority. Undistributed offsetting receipts are total revenues minus total budget authority, they reduce the federal deficit and are the first funds used by the Treasury to pay Interior budget authority in the beginning of the year. Provided the undisclosed profit continues, and there are balances available, the Interior Department Treasury operates on a traumatic undisclosed deficiency between the true total inflation adjusted current appropriations request and the prima facially insufficient adjusted total federal budget request for federal outlays from the General fund for the Department. To end budget trauma from cuts, threatened budget cuts and high cost of compensation under 18USC§246, it is necessary for the Budget-in-brief overview to quantify both the Department profit margin adjusted by the size of the deficiency between total federal outlays and inflation adjusted current appropriations, 2.5% government, 3% services, Indian and Insular Affairs, to be remedied by the Anti-deficiency act under 31USC§1515 to ensure balance is available at time obligation is incurred under §1502. Subtracting the offsetting deficiency to produce undistributed offsetting receipts perfects the first reproducible, accurate, Interior budget framework under 24USC§153.

1. Although receipts are declining since a high of $13.3 billion in FY 19 there are plenty of undeclared undistributed offsetting receipts for the Secretary’s proposal to administrate$1.3 billion Public Lands Infrastructure Fund in addition to 2.5% government and 3% Indian Affairs current appropriations growth since FY 17. There are always enough revenues for the Interior Department to ask Congress to help afford to purchase the ForestService outright and start operating on the supplemental basis of total current appropriations they pretend to operate on, rather than the deficiency they currently Officeof Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR) pursuant to the Anti-deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1515. Even with the Secretary and President inciting and counterfeiting enough energy revenues payments to states to finance prescribed burns and slash piles in violation of 36CFR§261.5 in the Interior Budget-in-brief, camping on the banks of waterways in the Interior is believed to be 65 times more fire-safe than National Forests whose most flammable practice is to genocidally enforce eviction of river campers pursuant to amendment of 36CFR261.58(e)(z) to prohibit campers entry or access to ‘endangered species habitat, urban drinking watershed, private property or military base perimeter’, and encourage them to extinguish campfires with water on the banks of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers, rather than fight wildfire smolder with mineral soil for ten full minutes in the duff. The USDA FY 20 Budget-in-brief marks [Forest Service outlays transfer to the Interior]. The USDA and HA have collaborated in the past to rescind revenues expressed as inappropriate payments, to stabilize hyperinflationary total outlay estimates. 191 million acres of National Forest are marked by the USDA to be transferred to the Interior and Forest Service can be bought outright for only $7,840 million FY 21 is crudely proposed to a COVID-19 pandemic Congress for $5 billion, $5,095 million taxpayer and $2,821 million exhaustion of the non-self-determinately estimated Interior undistributed offsetting receipts FY 21 in perpetual pursuit of supplemental current appropriations, rather than merely redressing deficiency with Interior receipts pursuant to the Anti-deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1515.

C. Hyperinflation in permanent appropriations for the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) due to overpayment of United Mine Workers Health Benefit Plans (UMWA) turns out to be an illusory overestimate under the OSMHE FY20 budget justification involving omission of Mandatory Grants to Non-Certified States (AML Funds) row by the Interior Budget-in-Brief. The Office of SurfaceMining Reclamation (OSMR) current appropriations must increase 10% from FY 17 to $278 million FY 21. On May 5, 2017, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2017 was enacted and Division M Section 104 of the Act, cited as the Health Benefits for Miners Act of 2017. During FY 2019 and 2020, OSMRE will process the UMWAF transfer requests for the three UMWAF health plans and provide funding for an estimated 41,848 beneficiaries. The total transfer request reported in the FY 2020 OSMRE Budget Justification for UNWAF is $331.5 million FY18, $279.4 million FY19 and $323.9 million FY20. This money is reported to be divided between AML fund Interest and Treasury funds, all permanent appropriation. The FY 20 and FY 21 Budget Highlight overestimate $1,926 million FY 20 and $704 million FY 21. For the year where data is available FY 20 is overestimated by $1,602 million. It is therefore proposed to estimate 2.5% growth to $332 million UMWA FY 21 and include $141 million FY 20 Mandatory

185

Grants to Non-Certified States (AML Funds) growing to $145 million FY 21. The OSME needs a more optimistic budget. Payments (or Grants) to States in Lieu of Coal Fee Receipts (Treasury Funds) are down 54% FY20-FY 21 and may need to be increasedfrom $47.3 million or $42.6 million FY 20 to $107 million FY 21 to terminate irregular energy payments to states and sustain environmental restoration.

1. Hyperinflation in permanent appropriations for the Interior Office of the Secretary is asdisappointing the Secretary’s current appropriations as it is alarming. The hyperinflation is attributed to an unauthorized switching of Mineral Lease and Associated Payments rowto permanent appropriations, from receipts, FY 20 concurrent with the Secretary’s currentappropriation impoverishing invention of ONRR. Since FY 19 total receipts have declined and the 127% increase in Office of the Secretary budget authority wants to be prohibited for hyperinflation to justify 2.5% annual current appropriation growth since FY 17 for the Secretary under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and 1514(a)(2). These non-imaginary, extra since FY 19, ‘Mineral Lease and Associated Payments’ add up to be distributed states, may be rescinded by the Secretary, to better help Congress to afford to transfer the Forest Service to the Interior, and enable the Solicitor to do the ‘Indian email war FY 17 – FY 20’ justice under 18USC§1111. Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c). Treasury energy payments were never authorized to be distributed to any state but Alaska under Sec. 20001(b)(5) of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 (P .L . 115-97, Dec. 22).

D. The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) unconditionally receives 10% growth since FY 17. The Office of the Secretary is due 10% growth since FY 17 in current appropriations if he prohibits FY 21 excessive, hyperinflationary, and inappropriate Mineral Leasing andAssociated Payment (revenue?) distribution to States under 31USC§1517. Due to moderately hyperinflationary compensation, for budget cut threats in excess of 2.5% annual average, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Bureau of Environmental Safety (BES), US Geological Survey (USGS) grow 1% from the previous year. The agreement is that these governments will receive 2.5% annual growth in federal outlays, known as current appropriations, in the future, plus whatever revenues the Interior Department agency is authorized to add to their budget authority, known as permanent appropriations. Permanent appropriations are calculated as the difference between requested and supplemental. The Office of the Solicitor is approved to receive $87 million FY 21 to do the BIA email massacre justice, after more than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). The Inspector General is advised, free of charge, to rescind growth in excess of 2.5% annually under 2USC§684(c). The removal of the Special Trustee from Departmental Offices, after a $1 million decline in revenues FY 20 – FY 21 is dubious, and will hopefully bankrupt the Secretary’s Office of Natural Resource Revenue (ONNR) FY 19 reorganization justice. Theoretical reorganization savings are overruled by deficiency in 2.5% growth for government and 3% for services, that is absolutely critical for tribal governments serving a growing population of more than 2 million people.

1. Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) current appropriations must be added up to ensure 3% inflation to provide goods and services to a growing population. Reorganization is poor substitute for 3% annual growth in current appropriations for Indian Affairs. It is hoped

186

that BIA and the Interior Secretary can agree on a deficiency. BIA cannot accept the transfer of the Special Trustee to a Bureau of Trust Fund Management (BTFM) towards sustaining 12% growth of combined BIE and BIA spending since FY 17. The Special Trustee or replacement must be fully funded with 12% growth from FY 17 to $156 million FY20 - FY21. The 2021 budget proposes to establish the Bureau of Trust Funds Administration (BTFA) and transition ongoing essential functions currently performed bythe Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians (OST) to the BTFA. BTFA manages approximately $5.5 billion, held in roughly 3,600 trust accounts for more than 250 Indian Tribes and about 406,000 open IIM accounts FY 20, 0.5% more than FY 19. The Trustee shall compensate beneficiaries and sue the Office of the Secretary and Officeof Natural Resource Revenues (ONNR) regarding the $1 million decline in revenues FY 21. The Office of Insular Affairs (OIA) is due more than 12% inflation since FY 17 in current appropriations to $170 million FY 21 in order to bring budget authority to $700 million FY 21 after more than 42 months (Revelation 13:10) and renew, replace or forgo some $230 million annual permanent appropriations for the Compact of Free Association when they expire FY 23. The Interior doctrine that the public land is held in trust for the Native Americans has been profoundly questioned. The meaning is that the public land is to be left in a pristine condition as it was before it was run over by the wheel and urbandevelopment, and that the United States has a fiduciary duty to the Native Americans whose land they profitably exploit.

2. Payments in Lieu of Taxes must be defended against excessive punishment regarding the termination of unauthorized Energy Payments to States FY 19-FY20 with 10% growth from FY 17. $148 million for the Office of Natural Resource Revenue (ONRR) must be impounded with the increase in current appropriations for the Office of the Secretary, where it came from FY 19. Central Hazardous Materials Fund should continue to get $10 million FY 17-FY19, after a $22 million spike FY 20, FY 21 and agree to 2.5% growth. $1,003 million is accepted as 3% growth for Wildland Fire Management FY 21. The Secretary’s prescribed burn propaganda must be prohibited. Natural Resource Damage Assessment is a replanting service that must be fully funded with 3% growth from FY 17 plus compensation for the FY 18 cut for $700 million in lessthan 42 months (Revelation 13:10) plus 3% growth, for a trail mix of fruit and nut trees and other wild edibles, thereafter. The Working Capital Fund is accepted. 3% growth from the previous year for the Bureau of Reclamation spending to stabilize FY 21 and thereafter. $15 million stabilization level for Central Utah Completion Act. The difference between FY 21 current appropriations request is added to the supplemental budget authority request, except for the Offices of Surface Mining Reclamation and Secretary. In the Departmental Offices two novel rows are unexplained and appear to betaking a lot of money. Mineral leasing and associated payments are reported to have increased from $1,773 million FY 20 to $1,809 million FY 21 but these inappropriate payments would be believed to be totally fictitious if it were not for the energy payments to states category. Public Lands Infrastructure Fund is an FY 21 proposal that appears to take $1.3 billion FY 21, to be accepted on the condition of normal 2.5% government and 3% services, Indian Affairs and Indian Education Bureau inflation.

E. Beware of the Statute at Large, Congress can only be solved by correct citation of the code, and they have an inflationary number of Alzheimer’s in their appropriations bills that don’t prevent the Speaker of the House’s Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence from spying. Unconstitutionally vague references to the statute at large are doomed to arbitrary and capricious enforcement by Citizens to Preserve Overton Park, Inc. v. Volpe, 401 U. S. 402, 410 (1971). The ‘Indian cyber war FY 15-FY 20’ is declared to be over, for the Solicitor to redress insomnia incidental to the passage of

191

National Park Service and Related Organizations Pub. L. 113–287, § 3, Dec. 19, 2014, 128 Stat. 3096, codified at 54USC§100101 et seq. Chapter 1 National Parks, Military Parks, Monuments and Seashores, should never have been repealed, and must be restoredto the condition it was in 2013, to create a common law with Title 54. The right to bear arms in National Wildlife Refuges remains to be transferred from 16USC§ 1a–7a (2018) to a new section in Chapter 71 Recreational Hunting Safety at 16USC§5208.

1. These days campers want trails to free electricity and high-speed Internet to email the public lands they volunteer in, without arrest or reprisal. Although there is no way to guarantee Internet freedom, the best way to secure a public wifi network is for the librarian to enable the free and fast download of movies, including pornography, to disable parental control freaks and their opportunistic killers. Energy revenue payments to States have been unaccountably regulated by the Office of Natural Resource Revenues (ONRR) since its creation in FY 19. The Secretary overestimates permanent appropriations for United Mine Workers Act and omits mandatory non-certified payments to States by the Office of Mine Reclamation and Enforcement (OMRA). NovelMineral Lease and Associated Payments in particular, appear to have been switched fromreceipts to permanent appropriations of the Office of the Secretary FY 20. Access is denied to the FY 18 and FY 19 budgets. Believed to be distributed FY 20, Mineral Leaseand Associated Payments, appear to be inappropriate payments to States. Since FY 19 total receipts have declined and the 127% increase in Office of the Secretary budget authority wants to be prohibited for hyperinflation to justify 2.5% annual current appropriation growth since FY 17. Congress may impound Mineral Lease and Associated Payments if the Secretary does not agree to rescind them under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and 1514(a)(2). This money could reduce taxpayer costs for the Interior to buy the Forest Service outright, to reduce wildfire risk by as much as 65 times.

2. Operation Lady Justice has retained 22 prosecutors to review missing and dead Native American cold cases for first degree murder under 18USC§1111. Homeland Security Cybersecurity demands more information on the suspicious white male and female deathsafter a white backpacker emails a tribal Trail Committee. Only California State, where the Speaker of the House comes from, Canada Refugee Agency and some other random emails are as instantly lethal to the United States, as a tribal government in an otherwise National Forest burning, public land evicting Interior Department, to the full extent of their armed eviction, and increase of drug enforcement and narcotic seizures on Indian lands since FY17. Delinquent federal student loan collection calls and taxpayer bothering refund request, must be noted for their Attorney General incited rampage shootings. The Guidelines on the Role of Prosecutors (1990) provides, Guideline 16: When prosecutors come into possession of evidence against suspects that they know or believe on reasonable grounds was obtained through recourse to unlawful methods, which constitute a grave violation of the suspect's human rights, especially involving torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, such as marijuana prohibition, or other abuses of human rights, they shall refuse to use such evidence against anyone other than those who used such methods, or inform the Court accordingly,and shall take all necessary steps to ensure that those responsible for using such methods are brought to justice. As a rule, traffic court park jurisdictions are forfeit – speed ticket. The right to non-self-incrimination and family are defended against B&E by the formal or conclusive representation of a court-appointed ‘indigent defender in public land

eviction’ under the Convention on Legal Aid and Legal Relations in Civil, Family and Criminal Cases (1993) in pursuit of free, legal campgrounds

3. The original intention of the legislation of Hot Spring Reservation in 1832, that heralded several decades of peace with the Native Americans, and the only time the national debt was paid off, was to provide free baths for the indigent under 16USC§361 and 24USC§18. Providing free bathing and laundry facilities, remains an important component of the solution for how best to accept the uncompensated services of people who voluntarily remove urban and rural litter by legalizing camping, especially in areas where litter is evidence of prior eviction under 24USC§422(d)(1). Never having gotten the promised Indigent Defender under 16USC§361, many white park historians have wrongly lodged the national park creation myth with the buffalo slaughter neglecting magistrate in Yellowstone jail under 16USC§30, fugitives from justice §24 and evicting trespassers under §22. This urban myth gravely compromises attorney client privilege, the military tradition of not using posse commentates power and is a permanent disabilityon the wilderness camping pedestrian, after the trail system and western wilderness were metaphorically run over by the Home Department in 1849 and Homestead Act of 1862. To promote decades of peace with the Native Americans and guide city folk of all races to peacefully camp on public lands for free, and wash their pits, it is held that 16USC§1a-1 (2013) and 54USC§100101 (b)(1)(A) must amend the creation myth of the national park system from 'Yellowstone National Park in 1872' to 'Hot Springs Reservation in 1832 to provide free baths for the indigent' pursuant to 16USC§361 and 24USC§18.

4. To raise the academic bar on the law of the land, Title 16 of the United States Code Chapter 1 National Parks, Military Parks, Monuments and Seashores statute from 2013, maintained online by Government Publishing Office, must be cross-referenced with National Park Service and Related Organizations Pub. L. 113–287, § 3, Dec. 19, 2014, 128 Stat. 3096, as codified at 54USC§100101. The fundamental purpose of the said parks, monuments, and reservations, which purpose is to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such manner and by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations under 16USC§1 and 54USC§100101(a). Law enforcement is regulated by torts under 16USC§1a-6 (2013) and 54USC§102701. Even with the overweight and Secretary and President fat burning EO 13855 Promoting ActiveManagement of America’s Forests, Rangelands, and Other Federal Lands to Improve Conditions and Reduce Wildfire Risk and counterfeiting enough energy revenues payments to states to finance prescribed burns and slash piles in violation of 36CFR§261.5 in the Interior Budget-in-brief, camping on the banks of waterways in the Interior is believed to be 65 times more fire-safe than National Forests. Their most flammable practice is to genocidally enforce eviction of river campers pursuant to amendment of 36CFR261.58(e)(z) to prohibit campers entry or access to ‘endangered species habitat, urban drinking watershed, private property or military base perimeter’. They would be legalized to extinguish campfires with water on the banks of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers, rather than fight wildfire smolder with mineral soil for ten full minutes in the duff.

5. For fire-safety and fulfillment of the human right to camp on public lands, park rangersacross the nation are promoted to lay down their weapons, identification theft and tickets,give out wilderness instructions for a court appointed indigent defender of the public

land, with a private email if government email is considered particularly hostile, and get paid to live for decades rent-free, until naturalists own a larger share of private land and urban development. When funds and botanical know-how are available, national, state, city and tribal grant-payers are advised to replant a trail mix of fruit and nut trees and other wild edibles on urban wildland interface trails that should connect the city with the wilderness, cities with other cities and the National Trail System to prohibit the traffic signs of the crime of genocide, eg. destruction of or denial of access to food, shelter (campfires by water) and other essentials of life pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020 under 24USC§423(b) and 54USC§302904.

The fundamental purpose of wilderness protection is to conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein, in such a manner as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations under 16USC§1 (2013) and 54USC§100101(a).

Perfect bona fide claims and privately exchange land under24USC§153. Forgive unlawful intrusion, violation of rules and regulations under §154.

Cross-connect city-to-city sidewalks, bike-paths and trails with National Trail System Act under 16USC§1246(h)(1). Trails are blazed to camp to observe the stars or on the bank of wild and scenic waterways, except, 'urban drinking watersheds, endangered species habitat, private property and military perimeters' to amend 36CFR261.58(e)(z).

Do not camp where camping is prohibited, under snags or falling overhead objects. Select a site with low wind and flat ground without roots, remove rocks and sticks.

Campfires: Use a stove in the wind and duff. Save fuel for when needed. Select only fire-pits located near water. First, dig a fire-pit. Extinguish with gallons of water. Fight smoldering wild-fire with mineral soil.

Water and Food: Filter water from a non-toxic source. Sawyer Squeeze filters 100,000 gallons to 0.1 microns. Donot use soap or detergent. Use a bear barrel or carry food inodor proof bag. Bury human waste six inches deep. Wood rats don't eat toilet paper.

§95 Department of Justice

A. The Judiciary Act of 1789, ch. 20, sec. 35, 1 Stat. 73, 92-93 (1789) created the Office of the Attorney General. In 1870, after the post-Civil War increase in the amount of litigation involving the United States necessitated the very expensive retention of a large number of private attorneys to handle the workload, a concerned Congress passed the Actto Establish the Department of Justice, ch. 150, 16 Stat. 162 (1870) setting it up as "an executive department of the government of the United States" with the Attorney General as its head. The Act gave DOJ control over all criminal prosecutions and civil suits in which the United States had an interest. In addition, the Act gave the Attorney General and the Department control over federal law enforcement, establishing the Attorney General as the chief law enforcement officer of the Federal Government. Finally, to assistthe Attorney General, the Act created the Office of the Solicitor General. DOJ was charged with improving: 1. representation of the federal government in the Courts, 2. representation of the federal government to the State Attorney Generals, 3. representationof state attorney generals to the federal government and 4. counsel to the president by serving as the member of the cabinet who supervises judicial affairs and litigation with the title Attorney General of the United States.

1. The US Department of Justice is constituted in accordance with Article 3 of the Constitution of the United States, Title 28, Part 2 United States Code and manages its judicial administration in accordance with Title 28 Code of Federal Regulations and the U.S. Attorney’s Manual. The Department of Justice consists of the principal organizational units listed in 28CFR§0.1 as restructured by the Homeland Security Act of2002 yielding roughly 17 offices, 7 divisions and 2 boards with four immigration and customs related agencies seceding to the Department of Homeland Security. The DOJ’s FY 2021 request includes 116,989 positions (direct only). This staffing level is comprisedof: Agents (25,359 or 22%); Attorneys (12,151 or 10%); Correctional Officers (20,446 or17%); Intelligence Analysts (4,434 or 4%); and Other (54,599 or 47%). “Other” captures analysts, administrative, clerical, information technology specialists, legal services, and security specialists. The FY 2021 DOJ Budget delineated by five spending categories: law enforcement (50.0%); prisons and detention (28.7%); litigation (12.1%); grants (5.4%); and immigration/ administration / technology /other (3.8%). The mission of the Department of Justice is: To enforce the law and defend the interests of the United States according to the law; to ensure public safety against threats foreign and domestic; to provide federal leadership in preventing and controlling crime; to seek just punishment for those guilty of unlawful behavior; and to ensure fair and impartial administration of justice for all Americans.

195

B. The DOJ FY 2021 Budget request totals $31.7 billion in discretionary outlays, including $29.9 billion for federal programs (net fees) and $1.8 billion for state, local, and tribal assistance programs and excluding claims of $7.9 billion in mandatory budget authority in FY 2021. Justice is the only Department budget believed to accurately distinguish discretionary outlays and mandatory revenue funded operations. The summary of budget authority by appropriation is only a few thousand dollars off after mandatory budget authority FY 21. Once again, the FY 21 Budget Summary does not even attempt to justify termination of the Community Relations Service, Community Oriented Policing Service (COPS) or Office of Violence against Women (OVW) they threaten with total abolition. The total FY 20 supplement is $460 million for the OVW FY 20 to redress COVID-19 quarantine related domestic violence, bringing total FY 20 discretionary budget authority from $32.4 billion to $32.9 billion FY 20. The total FY 21supplement is $550 million outlays for the OVW, $17 million for the Community Relations Service and $250 million for COPS, a total supplement of $817 million FY 21 in addition to the $31.7 billion total discretionary outlays already requested, for total discretionary budget authority of $32.5 billion FY 21. The hypothetical depletion of the Crime Victim Fund (CVF) from the accurate number of -$7,783 million FY 19 to $5,695 million FY 20 to $0 FY 21, by means of large Victims Compensation Fund FY 21 and extremely low deposits, should be interpreted as a request for $5.7 billion FY 20, too much money, after losing ability to account for ultra-high deposits FY 14 and FY 17, and it is advised that deposits should moderate at a slightly higher rate than the $2,300 millionFY 21 disbursement cap, $2,500 million FY 20 and FY 21, to afford CVF disbursement and reasonable transfers to victim compensation fund pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1515.

1. Other than the following DOJ budget request is not contested. Community Relations Service requires at least $17 million for 12% growth from FY 17 plus any arrears for 3% growth they wish to file for pursuant to Sec, 1004 of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and 18USC§246. Although COPS are genuinely a civil riot/terrorism finance suspect, they have not been accused, they are accused of hyper-inflation, rising from $225 million FY 17 to $340 million FY 20 after being cut FY 18 and receiving generous compensation in excess of $300 million FY 19, 3% inflation from FY 17 is fair, $250 million FY 21, 3% inflation thereafter. Nor does it explain how the Office of Violence against Women (OVW) is going to pimp DOJ -$10 million from their 3% inflation negligent compensation for wrongful termination of outlays from the Crime Victim Fund settlement since FY 17. OVW outlays are again threatened to be cut incidental to some unexplained replenishment of the Crime Victim Fund FY 20. OVW is due an estimated $540 million federal outlays FY 21, 12.5% growth from FY 16. The current federal outlay cut threat is $67.5 million FY 20, down from $487.5 million FY 19, that must be redressed with $528 million FY 20 in outlays are advised for 10% growth from FY 16, plus 2.5% increase in outlays. Furthermore, Crime Victim Trust Fund spending for OVW battered women shelters and medical treatment should be anticipated to increase 3% annually, from the previous year, to compete with inflation. DOJ has paid a high price by attempting to force OVW to live on the Crime Victim Fund and with continuing outlay cut threats, must continue to pay both federal outlays for the OVW agency and Crime Victim Fund payments for the shelter and medical treatment of female domestic violence victims they have begun to count since $326 million FY 17, $326 million FY 18, $497 million FY 19, $435 million FY 20 replenishment, and $498.5 million FY 21.

2. The Attorney General’s heart fails by the end of General Legal activities. The Antitrust division 10% increase in offsetting receipts from $109 million FY 18 to FY 19 comes after 3 years of federal outlays between $61.5 million FY 16 and $64.6 billion FY 18. Unable to get from $60 to $70 million in less than 42 months, Antitrust outlays took the cowardly way and charged the public more to back down from the persecution of the number of the beast by the appropriations committee, and try again with more momentum. Federal outlays declined -55% from $64 million FY 19 to $29 million FY 19 before rapidly increasing to $31 million FY 20 and 52.5 million FY 21. Total budget authority initially declined -5% from $173 million to $165 million and is now rapidly increasing. Antitrust must sue the public regarding their hypersensitivity, to limit the persecution of 666 to less than 42 months, and hopefully skip right over the antichrist reference ultra vires (Revelation 13:10). Antitrust could settle for $70 million outlays plus 3% growth in outlays and reduce the antitrust merger filing fee by 10% -15% FY 22.

3. 10.8% hyperinflation FY 20-FY 21 US Marshal Service total, 12.5% hyperinflation in salaries and expense and 9.6% in federal prisoner detention seems excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). The US Marshall must begin to warrant their rapid spending growth by seizure of FBI, DEA, Interagency Crime and Drug Enforcement and ICE budget authority. It has long been held that the FBI, DEA and Inter-agency drug andcrime enforcement are speed freaks who need to be completely abolished to end slavery of the innocent and random acts of violence by ignorant people they torture equally. Having destroyed food and drugs seized by the police, all that remains is Uniform Crime

C. The FY 2021 President’s Budget requests an annual obligation limitation of $2.3 billion for the Crime Victims Fund (CVF), a decrease of $341.0 million from the FY 2020 Enacted level. The CVF was established by the Victims of Crime Act of 1984 (“1984 Act”). It is financed by collections of fines, penalty assessments, and bond forfeitures from defendants convicted of federal crimes. Most collections stem from largecorporate cases rather than individual offenders. The CVF is administered by the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC). Programs supported by the CVF focus on providing compensation to victims of crime and survivors, supporting appropriate victims’ service programs and victimization intervention strategies, and building capacity to improve response to crime victims’ needs and increase offender accountability. The CVF was established to address the continuing need to expand victims’ services programs and assist federal, state, local, and tribal agencies and organizations in providing appropriate services to their communities. In FY 2017, the CVF received a historic level of receipts deposited to the Fund—$6.6 billion, nearly double the previous record-setting level of receipts ($3.6 billion in FY 2014). As of 2018, the Fund balance was over $12 billion andincludes deposits from federal criminal fines, forfeited bail bonds, penalties, and special assessments collected by U.S. Attorneys' Offices, federal courts, and the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Conversely, in both FY 2018 and FY 2019 the CVF received near-historicallylow levels of receipts ($445 million in FY 2018; $495 million in FY 2019). This volatilityhas created difficulty in creating an accurate predictive model for CVF receipts. Despite these lower receipt levels, spending out of the CVF hit a historic high in FY 2018 at $4.4 billion, before falling to $3.4 billion in FY 2019. The low levels of receipts in these years combined with historically high spending levels have significantly decreased the balance of the Fund itself, and raised significant questions regarding the viability of the Fund itself absent reform. The FY 2021 request therefore continues to seek CVF reform through an authorizing proposal that would amend the 1984 Act and establish a $2.3 billion obligation cap for the CVF. Of this amount, $498.5 million would be provided to the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) and the remaining $1.8 billion would be administered by OVC.

1. The Crime Victims Fund (the Fund) was established by the Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) of 1984. The Fund is financed by fines and penalties paid by convicted federal offenders, not from tax dollars. As of September 2013, the Fund balance had reached almost $9 billion and includes deposits from federal criminal fines, forfeited bail bonds, penalties, and special assessments collected by U.S. Attorneys’ Offices, federal U.S. courts, and the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Federal revenues deposited into the Fund also come from gifts, donations, and bequests by private parties, as provided by an amendment to VOCA through the USA PATRIOT Act in 2001 that went into effect in 2002. When the Fund was authorized in 1984, a cap was placed on how much could be deposited into it for the first 8 years. During this time, the annual cap varied from $100 million to $150 million. The lifting of the cap in 1993 allowed for the deposit of all criminal fines, special assessments, and forfeited bail bonds to support crime victim program activities. Starting in 2000 Congress placed annual caps on obligations to protect against wide fluctuations in receipts and ensure a stable level of funding in the future. Between FY2007 and FY2008, the amount of receipts collected dropped by nearly 12% and then increased by approximately 95% in FY2009. This was followed by a 35% increase in FY2010 and a 15% decrease in FY2011. The first $10 million is used to improve the investigation and prosecution of child abuse cases. The $10 million is divided between the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services ($8.5 million) and OVC ($1.5 million). The portion administered by OVC is used exclusively to help NativeAmericans improve the investigation and prosecution of child abuse cases, particularly child sexual abuse, and is highly suspected in bugging tribal government parental control,used to deny locals access to high speed movie and pornography download and instantly kill random people to disrupt civilian information exchange. The remaining Fund disbursements are distributed in the following ways: 48.5 percent to State compensation programs. 48.5 percent to State assistance programs. 3 percent for discretionary funds to support demonstration projects, training, and other assistance to expand and improve the delivery of services to federal crime victims. The formula grants may be used to reimburse crime victims for out-of-pocket expenses such as medical and mental health counseling expenses, lost wages, funeral and burial costs, and other costs (except property loss) authorized in a state’s compensation statute. National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181) included a provision mandating that the Attorney General transfer from the emergency reserve of the CVF “such funds as may be required”to the Victim Compensation Fund to cover the costs of special masters appointed by U.S. district courts in civil cases brought against state sponsors of terrorism, $3 billion FY 21

D. The United States has the highest number (2.2 million) and concentration of prisoners(746 per 100,000 residents) in the world as of 2014. The detainee population must go down to the international norm of less than 250 per 100,000. The incarcerated population decreased from 2,172,800 in 2015 to 2,162,400 in 2016. All of the decrease inthe incarcerated population was due to a decline in the prison population (down 21,200), while the jail population remained relatively stable. The number of persons held in prisonor local jail per 100,000 U.S. adult residents (incarceration rate) has declined since 2009 and is currently at its lowest rate (860 per 100,000 in 2016) since 1996 (830 per 100,000).Mandatory minimum sentences, and any sentencing regime but the statutory maximum, must abolished under Blakely v. Washington (2004). The Obama administration assailed what it says are unfair and unduly harsh sentences for many inmates, particularly minorities and nonviolent offenders. Black Americans were incarcerated in state prisons at an average rate of 5.1 times that of white Americans, and in some states that rate was 10 times or more. The US is 63.7% non-Hispanic white, 12.2% black, 8.7% Hispanic white and 0.4% Hispanic black, according to the most recent census. In five states, the disparity rate was more than double the average. New Jersey had the highest, with a ratio of 12.2 black people to one white person in its prison system, followed by Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota and Vermont. Overall, Oklahoma had the highest rate of black people incarcerated with 2,625 black inmates people per 100,000 residents. Oklahoma is 7.7% black. Among black men in 11 states, at least 1 in 20 were in a state prison. Hawaii, which is 2.5% black, had the lowest incarceration rate among black people (585 per 100,000), and the lowest ratio – 2.4 black Americans to 1 white – in its prisons. The Obama administration has helped to reduce the high rates of incarceration however racial disparities among prisoners persist. In the 25-29 age group, 8.1% of black men - about one in 13 – were behind bars, compared with 2.6% of Hispanic men and 1.1% of white

men. It's not much different among women. In 2005 the female population in state or federal prison increased 2.6 percent while the number of male inmates rose 1.9 percent. By year's end, 7% of all inmates were women. Trump administration statistics remain unavailable and there is deep concern regarding his racism, xenophobia and solidarity with police torture, might reverse liberty gains, but the cops are pretty dumb at courts, no longer excessively fooled by the “speed tickets’ before them. Racial disparities in sentencing implicate lawyers and judges of racism, and executing prisoners protected by the International Court of Justice. In response to mass protests regarding police brutality deaths in custody of black men, and countless other tortures, it is essential to raise the baron police officers to require at least a Bachelor degree, to prevent recidivism in 100% of court orders. It is important to convict the Trump Administration Justice Department of discrimination on the basis of sex, race and civil rights in general, and order restitution of Office of Violence against Women (OVW), Community Relations Service and Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS).

§96 Department of Labor

A. The Department of Labor (DOL) was created in the DOL Organic Act of March 4, 1913. DOL fosters and promotes the welfare of the job seekers, wage earners, and retirees of the United States. In carrying out this mission, the Department administers a variety of Federal labor laws including those that guarantee workers’ rights to safe and healthful working conditions; a minimum hourly wage and overtime pay; freedom from employment discrimination; unemployment insurance; and other income support. The Department of Labor (DOL) administers more than 180 federal laws. Department of Labor spending rose from $31.9 billion FY2000 to $173 billion FY10. The FY 2021 baseline request for the Department of Labor (DOL) is $41 billion - $11.1 billion in discretionary budget authority, $30 billion additional mandatory funding - 15,338 full-time equivalent employees (FTE) and as many as 2 million unemployment compensation benefits. To justify adopting a new more comprehensive budget print-out, the Labor Department FY 21 Budget-in-brief presented a discretionary budget history from FY 21, similar to that of Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy. The budget discriminates against, and it could be said, defrauds, a great number of programs that readlike a list of types of thinking that automatically constitute discrimination, threatening theWomen’s Bureau, Native American Programs, non-immigrant work visas, Job Corps, elderly employment, and International Labor Program deprivation of relief under 18USC§246. Most of all the Labor Department must stop threatening to terminate NativeAmerican Programs, for less than 3% inflation adjusted value, and the re-entry program is suspected of bugging tribal government and engaging in hostilities. All programs require 2.5% government and 3% services inflation. Labor legislative proposals are designed to fail, and this misleads misbehaving States, DOL Labor genocide by fraudulent pretense of the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act of 1996 (PRWOA) is not welcome to replace the SSA Ticket to Work, that is highly recommended by Biestek v. Berryhill (2019). A 3% annual increase in minimum wage and 6 months maternity protection of exclusive breastfeeding legislation is needed.

1. An estimated 35 million people filed for, and 30 million received unemployment compensation due to the COVID-19 pandemic beginning March 2020. A total of 29.2 million people were receiving unemployment benefits under all programmes during the week ending May 30 unemployment claims were down from 29.5 million. Congress

213

made an expensive error to pre-emptively require State unemployment programs to extend benefits until Dec. 31 for a coronavirus that was purported to not last more than three weeks and is cured instantly with a dab of essential oil of lavender or hydrocortisone crème to the nose and/or chest pursuant to Sec. 4105 of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act of 2020 (FFCRA). State costs for 20 million claims are estimated at $7.6 billion per week. March 2020, average weekly benefits were about $378 nationwide but ranged from a low of $211 in Louisiana to $557 in Massachusetts. (Weekly benefits were $162 in Puerto Rico.). Everyone who qualifies for unemploymentdue to the coronavirus pandemic can receive benefits until December 31, 2020 pursuant to Sec. 4105 of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act of 2020 (FFCRA). These extended benefits will continue past July 31, ending on or before December 31, 2020 costing states as much as $296.4 billion pursuant to Sec. 903(h)(1)(C) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1102 and Sec. 204(a)(1) of the Federal-State Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970 under 26USC§3304. The $600 federal benefit for all claims overcompensated states, federal economic relief should have been limited insuring the otherwise uninsured at normal benefit rates. There is little incentive to get back to work until July 31. Many people are earning more on unemployment, than they did working. The federal cost for 30 million claims to receive an extra $600 per week, is estimated at $21 billion per week from April 5 until July 31, at total of $315 billion FY 20 under Sec. 2104(b)(1)(B) and (e)(2) of the CARES Act. The Labor Department is looking at forgiving $200-$300 billion Title XII loans, $315 billion for the $600 benefit, $41 billion regular Labor Department outlays, for a total of $641 billion FY20 to remain until expended at the end of FY 21.

B. The Budget proposes to double the American Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement Act fee for the H-1B program to prepare American workers for jobs that are currently being filled by foreign workers, especially in STEM fields. The Budget invests in a better future for Americans with a proposal to provide at least six weeks of paid parental leave to new parents, including adoptive parents, so all families can afford to take time to recover from childbirth and bond with a new child. Using the Unemployment Insurance (UI) system as a base, the proposal will allow states to establish paid parental leave programs in a way that is most appropriate for their workforce and economy. The Administration looks forward to continuing to work with Congress to advance policies that would make paid parental leave a reality for families across the Nation. The Budget proposes to require States to use the tools already at their disposal for combatting improper payments while expanding their authority to spend certain UI program funds on activities that reduce waste, fraud, and abuse in the system. The Budget proposes transferring administrative management of the Ticket to Work (Ticket) program from the Social Security Administration (SSA) to DOL’s Employment and Training Administration (ETA), where it would be simplified, streamlined, and improved to better accomplish its goal of getting individuals with disabilities back into the labor force. The PA account will receive funds from SSA for the federal administration of this program.

1. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA) administers federal workforce development and worker dislocation programs, federal grants to states for public employment service programs, and Unemployment Insurance benefits. In June 2017, the Department announced actions to increase protections of American workers while more aggressively confronting entities committing visa program fraud and abuse. The

215

Department is committed to vigorously enforcing all laws within its jurisdiction governing the administration and enforcement of non-immigrant visa programs. The Budget proposes that Congress provide authorizing legislation for ETA to establish and retain fees to cover the costs of operating Foreign Labor Certification (FLC) programs. Currently, only the cost of operating the H-1B program is covered by fees. Other major FLC programs (H-2A, H-2B, PERM, CW-1, and Prevailing Wage Determinations) are funded with discretionary annual appropriations. The Budget includes a legislative proposal to double the ACWIA fee for the H-1B visa program (to $3,000 per worker for large employers and $1,500 for small employers) to prepare American workers for jobs currently filled by foreign workers, especially in STEM fields. The Budget includes $854,649,000 to fund Adult Activities for FY 2021. The 2021 Budget eliminates the Indian and Native American program. The Department requests a 1.5 percent set-aside to fund $12.8 million grants for adult and employment training activities for American Indians, Native Hawaiians, and Native Alaskans, and attempts to eliminate the $55 million FY 20 standalone Indian and Native American Program, but the set-aside does not adequately defend the Labor Department against genocide. The FY 2021 Budget eliminates the National Farmworker Jobs Program. Native American Programs and Migrant and Seasonal Farmworkers must be sustained. 3% growth for all services.

2. Job Corps facing -41% cut FY 20-FY21 and Community Service Employment for Older Americans, facing termination, must sustain 3% growth from the previous year. The Trade Adjustment Assistance Program (TAA Program) assists U.S. workers who have lost their jobs as a result of foreign trade. The Trade Adjustment Assistance Reauthorization Act (TAARA) of 2015 reauthorized TAA through June 30, 2021. TAARA 2015 contains sunset provisions to transition the TAA Program on July 1, 2021 to a previous iteration of the program known as Reversion 2014. Reversion 2014 would provide states with reduced funding for training, among other changes. Without enactment of reauthorizing legislation, termination of the TAA Program will take effect on July 1, 2022. State Unemployment Insurance and Employment Service Operations (SUIESO) account provides funding to support the UI system. The Federal-State UI program provides temporary, partial wage replacement to workers temporarily or permanently laid off from their jobs. The major functions performed by the states are: (1)determining benefit entitlement; (2) paying benefits; and (3) collecting state UI taxes from employers. The states also administer federal programs for payments to former federal military and civilian personnel; claimants who qualify for extended or special federal unemployment benefits; workers certified under the Trade Adjustment Assistanceand Reemployment Trade Adjustment Assistance programs; and individuals unemployed due to disasters. The Wagner-Peyser Act of 1933 established a nationwide system of public employment offices, known as the Employment Service (ES). ES provides labor exchange services to all job seekers and helps businesses to meet their hiring needs by referring qualified workers.

3. The programs currently administered by the Office of Foreign Labor Certification (OFLC) include the: immigrant Permanent Labor Certification Program (commonly referred to as PERM or the “Green Card” program); non-immigrant H-1B and H-1B1 Specialty Occupations Programs; E-3 Specialty Worker Program; H-2A Temporary Agricultural Worker Program; H- 2B Temporary Non-agricultural Program; D-1 Longshore Crewmember Program; CW-1 CNMI- only Transitional Worker Program; andDetermination of Prevailing Wages. The Budget continues to seek authorization to

216

establish and retain fees to cover the costs of operating the PERM, H-2A, H-2B, CW-1, and prevailing wage determination programs. The market-based funding structure of this proposal would allow the supply of available resources to be directly determined by the demand for foreign labor certification services. Requiring the entities that utilize these programs to cover their costs would ultimately eliminate the need for annual appropriations for these activities. The Budget also continues to include a legislative proposal to double the American Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement Act (ACWIA) fee for the H-1B visa program (to $3,000 per worker for large employers and $1,500 for small

4. The Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) protects the integrity and security of retirement, health and other workplace related benefits of America’s workers and their families. Although EBSA is a small agency, currently employing less than 850 people, it is responsible for protecting more than 154 million workers, retirees and their families who are covered by 710,000 private retirement plans, 2.4 million health plans, and similar numbers of other welfare benefit plans. Together, these plans hold estimated assets of $10.7 trillion. In addition, the agency has important interpretive and regulatory responsibilities with respect to IRAs, which hold about $8.8 trillion in assets, and audit responsibilities with respect to the Federal Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), which is the world’s largest employee contributory plan with more than 5.8 million participants and more than $621 billion in assets. The FY 2021 Budget request for EBSA is $192,738,000 and 875 FTE. The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) is a federal corporation, established under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. It guarantees payment of basic pension benefits earned by over 35,000,000 of America’s workers and retirees participating in more than 25,000 private-sector defined benefit pension plans. The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers four benefit programs for workers who become ill or are injured on the job. These programs ensure income support for these workers when work is not possible due to their injury or illness.

5. The Wage and Hour Division (WHD) enforces minimum wage, overtime, and other wage laws under the authorization set forth in 29USC§207 et seq. WHD enforces and administers: The minimum wage, overtime, child labor, anti-retaliation, and break time for nursing mothers provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA); The prevailing wage requirements and wage determination provisions of the Davis Bacon Act (DBA) and Related Acts (DBRA), the Service Contract Act (SCA), the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (CWHSA), the Walsh-Healey Act, and the Copeland Act, an anti-kickback law; The wages and working conditions (including housing and transportation standards) under the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA); The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA); Enforcement of the labor standards protections of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) for certain temporarynonimmigrant workers admitted to the U.S. This includes enforcing the labor protections of the H-1B, H-2A, and H-2B programs so that the employment of non-immigrant workers does not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of similarly employed US workers; The Employee Polygraph Protection Act (EPPA); and The garnishment provisions of the Consumer Credit Protection Act (CCPA). The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) examines the employment practices of federal contractors and subcontractors to determine whether they comply with equal employment opportunity and affirmative action obligations under legal authorities.

217

6. Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) administers the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA) and related laws. The FY 2021 request for OLMS is $50,410,000 and 238 FTE, which comprises a program increase totaling $6,925,000 to restore OLMS’ enforcement program. OLMS enforcement programs have experienced substantial funding cuts over the past 10 years which have greatly impacted its capacity to perform compliance audits on local and intermediary unions and virtually eliminated its capacity to perform more complex national and international union audits. Restoring the enforcement program through these additional resources will better positionOLMS to fulfill its statutory purpose to protect union members by conducting 535 compliance audits, 365 criminal investigations, and raising the number of indictments and convictions achieved annually. 2.5% growth limit for non-law enforcement.

7. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) ensures employers provide safe and healthful workplaces for the nation’s workers through a combination of enforcement, outreach, training, and compliance assistance. OSHA, combined with its 28 State Plan partners, has just under 2,000 inspectors responsible for the health and safety of 130 million workers employed at eight million worksites around the nation. The Department proposes to eliminate the Susan Harwood Training Grants. The FY 2021 budget request does not include an increase in federal compliance assistance of $459,000 and 2 FTE to hire additional instructors and support additional compliance officers and whistleblower training, it threatens to terminate $11 million FY 20 funding for compliance assistance training.

8. The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) protects the safety and health of miners in approximately 1,200 coal and 12,000 metal and nonmetal mines by enforcing current regulations, providing technical assistance and training, and developing improvedprograms to increase protections. MSHA is required to complete four inspections per year in underground mines and two inspections per year in surface mines. In FY 20 funding for Coal Mine Safety and Health and for Metal and Nonmetal Mine Safety and Health were terminated and consolidated in a new program of Mine Safety and Health Enforcement, for a little more than the combined total, but less than 3% inflation and declines in FY 21. Delete enforcement and pay $266 million FY 21.

9. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) of the Department of Labor is the principal federal statistical agency responsible for measuring labor market activity, working conditions, price changes, and productivity in the United States economy to support public and private decision- making. The Current Population Survey will begin developing a new Contingent Worker Supplement, after considering recommendations from the consensus report of the Committee on National Statistics of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. The Occupational Employment Statistics program will continue to implement the 2018 Standard Occupation Classification system in collection, which will reflect the current occupational composition of the U.S and ensure the comparability of occupation-based statistical data across federal statistical agencies. The Employment Projections program will develop and release the 2020-2030 economic and employment projections and incorporate these projections into the Occupational Outlook Handbook. In addition, the Consumer Price Index program will continue to introduce an updated geographic area sample based on the 2010 Decennial Census and will introduce Commodities and Services (C&S) samplesand Housing samples in the third wave of new primary sampling units. The International

218

Price Program will collaborate with the Census Bureau and the Bureau of Economic Analysis to analyze the best approach to calculate research export price unit value indexes from administrative trade data, and begin calculating research import price unit value indexes from administrative trade data for select product areas that are homogenous. The Office of Safety and Health Statistics will complete the decennial update to the Occupational Injury and Illness Classification System. The Occupational Requirements Survey will continue its five-year collection cycle using a sampling methodology that is expected to maximize occupational specific estimates without an increase in annual sample size. The Office of Productivity and Technology will incorporate detailed data from the 2017 Economic Census into its measures of labor productivity and multifactor productivity.

10. Departmental management discriminates against International Labor Services who received hyperinflationary compensation FY 20 for threatened cut, and against the Women’s Bureau who requires 3% annual growth to $14.6 million. Labor must not threaten to cut the Office of Disability Employment Policy, due 3% growth. DOL IT modernization is hyperinflationary and growth must moderate to 3%.

C. The Federal-State Unemployment Compensation (UC) Program was created in the Social Security Act of 1935 (Public Law 74-271). The program has two main objectives: First, to provide temporary and partial wage replacement to involuntarily unemployed workers who were recently employed. Second, to help stabilize the economy during recessions. The U.S. Department of Labor oversees the system, but each State administers its own program. Almost all wage and salary workers are now covered by thefederal-state UC program. Railroad workers are covered by a separate federal program. Ex-service-members with recent service in the Armed Forces and civilian federal employees are covered by a federal program, with the states paying benefits from federal funds as agents of the federal government. The three major Unemployment Insurance (UI) programs: State UI, Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees (UCFE), and Unemployment Compensation for Ex-Service-members (UCX). The UC program operates counter-cyclically to economic trends, paying out benefits during recessionary times and building solvency during recovery periods.

1. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) January 2020 Employment Situation Report marked 23 months with the unemployment rate below 4% and 18-months with wage growth matching or exceeding 3.0%. May 2020 Employment situation reported that since February the unemployment rate rose from a record low of around 3.7% to a high of 23.1 million 15% in April. Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 2.5 million in May, and the unemployment rate declined to 13.3%. The unemployment rate declined by1.4 percentage points to 13.3 percent in May, and the number of unemployed persons fell by 2.1 million to 21.0 million. Reflecting the effects of the coronavirus pandemic and efforts to contain it, the unemployment rate and the number of unemployed persons in May are up by 9.8 percentage points and 15.2 million, respectively, since February. Among those not on temporary layoff, the number of permanent job losers continued to rise, increasing by 295,000 in May to 2.3 million. The labor force participation rate increased by 0.6 percentage points in May to 60.8 percent, 158 million, following a decrease of 2.5 percentage points from 163 million in March to 156 million in April. Unemployment Insurance Weekly Claims for June 4, 2020.

219

2. The COVID-19 virus continues to impact the number of initial claims and insured unemployment. Including Pandemic Unemployment Assistance and Pandemic Emergency Unemployment Compensation claims, the total number of people claiming benefits in all programs for the week ending May 16 was 29,965,415, a decrease of 991,744 from the previous week when there were 30,957,159 claims, at the height of the pandemic. In the same week of May 2019, 1.5 million claimed UI benefits. In 2019 all states had paid back their Title XII loans. The 2019 year-end aggregate State Trust Fund balances was $75.7 billion. In regards to Federal Pandemic Unemployment Assistance the term ‘‘covered individual’’— (A) means an individual who— (i) is not eligible for regular compensation or extended benefits under State or Federal law under Sec. 2102(a) of the CARES Act of March 27, 2020. Everyone, will receive an additional amount of $600 a week, referred to as ‘‘Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation’’) under Sec. 2104(b)(1)(B) of the CARES Act. This payment continues until July 31, 2020 underSec. 2104(e)(2) of the CARES Act. Whereas Congress has knowingly made, or caused to be made by another, a false statement or representation of a material fact, or knowinglyhas failed, or caused another to fail, to disclose a material fact, that a dab of hydrocortisone crème or essential oil of lavender to the nose and/or chest instantly cures coronavirus and mold allergies, and as a result of such false statement or representation or of such nondisclosure such individual has received an excessive amount of Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation to which such individual was not entitled, extended benefits from Sec. 4105 of the FFCRA and an additional $600 per week for covered persons from Sec. 2104 of the CARES Act, Congress shall be ineligible for further Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation, as they propose in the Heroes Act, in accordance with the provisions of the applicable State unemployment compensation law relating to fraud in connection with a claim for unemployment compensation; and (B) shall be subject to prosecution under section 1001 of title 18, United States Code pursuant to Sec. 2104(f) of the CARES Act.

D. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) prescribes standards for minimum wages, child labor and overtime pay, which affect most private and public employment. In 2016, 79.9 million workers age 16 and older in the United States were paid at hourly rates, representing 58.7% of all wage and salary workers. Among those paid by the hour, 701,000 workers earned exactly the prevailing federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. About 1.5 million had wages below the federal minimum. Together, these 2.2 million workers with wages at or below the federal minimum made up 2.7% of all hourly paid workers. Large increases in wages when Congress finally increases the federal minimumwage after a decade of neglect, strain labor budgets and have always resulted in layoffs. A 3% annual raise for low income workers, on the other, should be affordable on a labor budget that grows 2.5% to 3% annually depending on its composition of low-income workers. Wages must increase 3% annually for low-income workers to stay ahead of 2.7% consumer price inflation, without increasing too much and being more than many low-income employers can afford. A 3% annual raise is necessary for any poverty elimination strategy to be effective. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) needs to be amended to provide for a 3% annual raise from $7.25 to '$7.50 in 2020 and 3% every year thereafter.' under 29USC§206(a)(1)(D).

1. The Family and Medical Leave Act of February 5, 1993 (PL-303-3) is considered substandard and the U.S. provides only 12 weeks of unpaid leave to approximately half of mothers in the U.S. and nothing for the remainder. 45 countries ensure that fathers

220

either receive paid paternity leave or have a right to paid parental leave. The United States guarantees fathers neither paid paternity nor paid parental leave. At least 96 countries around the world in all geographic regions and at all economic levels mandate paid annual leave. The U.S. does not require employers to provide paid annual leave. At least 37 countries have policies guaranteeing parents some type of paid leave specifically for when their children are ill. Of these countries, two-thirds guarantee more than a weekof paid leave, and more than one-third guarantee 11 or more days. 139 countries provide paid leave for short- or long-term illnesses, with 117 providing a week or more annually. The U.S. provides up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave for delivery and sever sickness of a child through the FMLA.

2. Exclusive breastfeeding – defined as the practice of only giving an infant breast milk for the first 6 months of life – has the single largest potential impact on child mortality of any preventive intervention. Together with appropriate complementary feeding, breastfeeding has the potential to reduce mortality among children under 5 years of age by 19%. Exclusive breastfeeding reduces the risk of gastrointestinal infection and of all-cause mortality, and protects infants from respiratory infections. Exclusive breastfeedingalso has a protective effect against obesity later in life. Key recommendations are to improve maternity protection through the workplace (e.g. 6 months of mandatory paid maternity leave and polices to encourage women to breastfeed in the workplace), to empower women to exclusively breastfeed (WHO '19: 34-44). The United States currently does not pay for 12 weeks of maternity leave, but protects the mother from wrongful termination of employment. A woman is entitled to 14 weeks paid leave Maternity Protection pursuant to ILO Convention No. 183 (2000). Six months is 24 weeks. There is now credible medical evidence that a woman should exclusively breastfeed for the first six months. WHO has specifically explained that this justifies 6 months mandatory paid leave. Therefore the unemployment compensation programs needs to estimate the costs of 24 weeks paid maternity protection based on the 6-months of exclusive breastfeeding ruling to update Maternity Protection ILO Convention No. 183(2000) in WHO Essential Nutrition Actions: Mainstreaming Nutrition Through the Life-Course (2019). The Labor Department must pay for 24 weeks Maternity Protection pursuant to ILO Convention No. 183 (2000) by amending Demonstration Projects to:

'Maternity Protection' Sec. 305 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§505.

(a) To expedite the reemployment of mothers who have established a benefit year to claim unemployment compensation under State law the Secretary of Labor shall pay unemployment compensation for 24 weeks of Maternity Protection under International Labor Organization (ILO) Convention No. 183 (2000) as extended to provide for six months of exclusive breastfeeding by WHO Essential Nutrition Actions: Mainstreaming Nutrition Through the Life-Course (2019).

(b) On production of a medical certificate, stating the presumed date of childbirth, a woman shall be entitled to a period of maternity leave of not less than 14 weeks. Cash benefits shall be provided at a level which ensures that the woman can maintain herself and her child in proper conditions of health and with a suitable standard of living.

(1) Where a woman does not meet the conditions to qualify for cash benefits under national laws and regulations or in any other manner consistent with national practice,

221

she shall be entitled to adequate benefits out of social assistance funds, subject to the means test required for eligibility for such assistance, from Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) under Sec. 404 of Title IV-A of the Social Security Act under 42USC§604 et seq and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Program for the Aged, Blindand Disabled under Sec. 1611 of Title XVI of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1382 et seq.

(2) Medical benefits shall be provided for the woman and her child. Medical benefits shall include prenatal, childbirth and postnatal care, as well as hospitalization care when necessary.

(c) Employers shall provide at least 3 weeks of paid leave annually to uphold the Holidaywith Pay ILO Convention No. 132 (1970) and Workers with Family Responsibilities Convention No. 156 (1981). Employers shall provide up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave to care for the severe sickness of a child under the Family and Medical Leave Act of February 5, 1993 (PL-303-3).

§97 Department of State and International Assistance

A. The Department of State is the lead U.S. foreign affairs agency within the Executive Branch and the lead institution for the conduct of American diplomacy. Established by Congress in 1789 and headquartered in Washington, D.C., the Department is the oldest executive agency of the U.S. Government. The State Department and the Foreign Service of the United States that was established under the Act of May 24, 1924 (commonly known as the Rogers Act), the same year the United States Code was codified on June 24, 1924. Authorization was continued by the Foreign Service Act of 1946. It is imperative that the UN arrears hold Congress responsible for amending Title 22 Foreign Relations and Intercourse (a-FRaI-d) to Foreign Relations (FR-ee) and US Ambassadors to the UN cease to be exposed to Dimethoxymethylamphetamine (DOM) and computer hacking. Since 1980 the obscene name of the Court of International Trade of the United States (COITUS) in New York City has also needed to be changed to Customs Court (CC). The United States maintains the largest system of embassies in the world. Foreign service employees of USAID and the US Department of State breed like flies in 260 diplomatic missions in 163 foreign countries. US Consular offices abroad process an estimated 7 million visa applications annually. The State Department receives30 million applications regarding an estimated 150 million passports in circulation in 2020. As the largest economy in the world the United States is the largest financial contributor to the United Nations (UN) system, assessed to provide 22% of the UN regular budget and 27.5% of UN peacekeeping budgets.

1. The current Administration has fallen into arrears under Art. 19 of the UN Charter. Deprivation of relief is a civil rights crime under 18USC§246 pursuant to the Applicationof the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. The State Department and USAID must not forget to precisely and proportionally terminate funding for the hyper-defensive unauthorized, armed aggressors in the federal civilian budget pursuant to Military and Paramilitary Activities in and against Nicaragua (Nicaragua v. United Statesof America) (1984-1991). Terrorism prone Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), federal funding source unknown, foreign military finance, foreign military education,

222

international narcotic control and law enforcement, non-UN peacekeeping and FBI/DEA torturers of panic-disordered Ambassadors to the UN terrorism finance are to be totally terminated and must not be negligently or abusively treated on equal terms with the regular 2.5% budgetary inflation of the US Foreign Service and United Nations programsdue arrears. Unjustified State Department and International Assistance budget cut threats, have severely degraded the Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations (1946). The traumatic budget cut threat process that has so far resulted inunsatisfactory zero growth for international programs. Arrears are rife with a more subtlecomputer hacking than the Attorney General. The US must terminate wrongful sanctionsagainst Iran and return $3.6 billion assets with 2.5% annual inflation since 1980, 100% $7.2 billion FY 20 due to criminal contempt of US Ambassadors to the UN under the influence of speed for Certain Iranian Assets (2019) and paragraph 98 of Alleged violations of the 1955 Treaty of Amity, Economic Relations, and Consular Rights (Islamic Republic of Iran v. United States of America) No. 175 3 October 2018 and Dismissal on motion of action against individual entitled to immunity 22USC§254d. Congress is well aware how previous schemes to shortchange the UN have previously failed. From its infinite benefits, to outlaw and redress trauma caused by unjustified budget cuts to the national and international accounts without damaging the economy, Congress must make a show of good faith to amend federal torture statute to comply withArts. 2, 4 and 14 of the Convention against Torture (CAT) by repealing the phrase “outside the United States” from 18USC§2340A(a) and amending Exclusive Remedies at§2340B so: The legal system shall ensure that the victim of an act of torture obtains redress and has an enforceable right to fair and adequate compensation, including the means for as full rehabilitation as possible. In the event of the death of the victim as a result of an act of torture, their dependents shall be entitled to compensation under Art. 14 of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT)(1987).

2. Although mental illness is about twice as prevalent at the UN than elsewhere, it is important to note that, when abused, even the supreme law, the constitution, may be overruled by the human rights case for compensation pursuant to the Draft Articles of State Responsibility for Internationally Wrongful Acts (2001). The Secretary-General is our great leader, if he is too morbidly obese to budget for inflation, the President is also doomed to fail, unless America and Fifth Committee adequately provide UN accounting with a defense against the Down syndrome of accounting of morbidly obese executive under 18USC§4241 et seq. and 24USC§225h. In FY19, the Secretary of State and US Ambassadors to the UN experimentally withheld funding from the Human Rights Council dues to discrimination against alleged human rights offending member nations and the harshness of the arbitrary executions held against non-ICC arbitrary arresting nations of the United States and Israel. The FY 20 budget reports there is still not decision on the (black lives) matter. Human rights treaties are skillfully written to pacifically settle all cases with the exception of a few random errors, such as marijuana prohibition, to be repealed, the Charter agenda to lay down the Generals of the United Nations (GUN) and elect a Secretary of the United Nations (SUN), United Nations Assembly (UNA), Socio-Economic Administration (SEA) and Human Rights Council, and failure to prescribe a dab of essential oil of lavender or $1 hydrocortisone crème to instantly cure coronavirus and mold allergies. Nonetheless, before finishing the supplemental State and International Development budget request, it is necessary to review UN agency, UN regular and peacekeeping budget assessments, by disentangling

223

the Contributions to International Organizations table, and declared arrears from UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and World Health Organization (WHO). 2.5% inflation from FY 17 for all international organizations, except UNESCO due an estimated $906 million arrears FY 21 and 2.5% inflation from FY 17 for State Department programs, except International Security Assistance, duly punished and threatened with abolition, protecting Demining. Deprivation of relief is genocide. Budgets have a duty to relate 2.5% government, 3% services assessments with2.7% average annual consumer price index (CPI) inflation since 1980 and revenue growth in the vicinity of 6%.

B. The Secretary-General must immediately provide UN Peacekeeping with a minimum of $7 billion assessment of Approved resources for peacekeeping operations for the period from 1 July to 30 June (2020/21). Any less would indicate intentional persecution of the crime of genocide most highly associated with economic depression for more than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). The Secretary-General is obligated to provide UN Peacekeeping with an $8.7 billion assessment under Art. 36 of the Statute of the Court. the UN must effectively bill the US for arrears in exchange for potentially facilitating the $2.5 trillion 11.7% FY 21 devaluation of the US dollar to print-out all COVID-19 SpecialIssue and regular marketable t-bonds FY 20 with a free year of child SSI FY 21 to lawfully promote consumer economic growth, for free for one year, before the rich and state employees are taxed. To justify $8.7 billion UN Peacekeeping budget 2020/21 UN Peacekeeping, despite the termination of the mission to Haiti, UN Peacekeeping is advised to professionally study official US and other nation overseas military deployments for collectively pre-authorization of the Security Council for country of operation, support, criticism and abolition, pursuant to Chapter VII of the UN Charter. Assessments must grow 2.5% annually to compete with inflation. It is interesting to note that the regular budget declared bankruptcy the moment total UN agency spending is estimated to have crossed the $60 billion threshold at a 5.3% annual rate growth that will achieve $71.1 billion in 42 months April 2023. In no case should such persecution between the numbers 6 and 7 last longer than 42 months (Revelation 13:10).

1. After successfully capitalizing on the superstition, the Department of Defense >$700 billion budget is backsliding to metaphorically rescue UN peacekeepers from economic depression. After a brief moment of happy peacekeeping propaganda inspiring the Secretary-General to get into shape for the short duration he was sentenced to boot camp for the three mile run, there is still no peacekeeping budget readily available online and the deadline is June 30, cyber-security is poor, all the tables had to be completely redone, and the Secretary-General is as morbidly obese as ever. To adequately provide for defense of UN regular and peacekeeping assessments, it is necessary to level the errors ofthe adipose Secretary-General of the United Nations, who claims to have responded to US budget degradation by unlawfully reducing his regular budget demand from $2.8 billion 2017 to $2.7 billion 2018 and 2019, and persecuted Peacekeeping from $7.8 billion 2016-17 to $6.5 billion 2019-20, with malice in his heart, as a crime of genocide against him pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. The Fifth Committee declared bankruptcy October 2019. $3.1 billion from 2020 Revised estimates: effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General A/74/585 of 11 December 2019 is acceptable because it demands 2.5% inflation from 2016/17. 2.5% inflation to $3.2 billion 2021 and then to

224

$3.3 billion in 2022 are due. The US will not be offended with more than three consecutive years of assessment $600-$722 million FY 22. The US is encouraged to settle $13 million regular budget arrears for a $704 million FY 21.

C. The U.S. pays a share of the assessed budgets of 44 international organizations, including the United Nations Regular budget, United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) the US has not paid since 2011, and discounting the Residual Mechanisms for War Crime Tribunals three times, only 11 of these 41 organizations, listed in the Contributions or International Organizations sub-table, are part of the United Nations system. The Contributions for International Organizations table must be rearranged to include the Convention for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons and World Trade Organization in the 11 United Nations programs. The others 30 organizations mostly relate to the Organization of American States and conservation of resources. Because widespread budget cuts to international organizations began FY 17 there is little room to disagree with 2.5% growth from FY 16. UNRWA has been identified as International Organization and Program rows. UNRWA has defended their claim against threatened budget cuts, much more effectively than UNESCO’s 2011 US funding termination dues to discrimination against Palestine. UNESCO imposed $550

225

million arrears plus $85.7 million FY 18, the US did not settle and the total cost of redressing college tuition hyperinflation, delinquent student loan collections incited rampage shootings, congressional budget-justification and computer fraud, by re-enrolling in UNESCO is crudely estimated at $906 million, including $92.3 million current dues FY 21 2.5% more thereafter. NATO is advised to claim $65.6 million FY 21 and an extra million in FY 23 to make it to Chapter VII in less than 42 months.

Source: Tillerson, Rex. Pompeo, Mike. State Department, Foreign Operations and Related Programs. FY 17 & FY 19 & FY 21.

1. $2.4 million withheld represents 15 percent of the FY 2019 contribution to the International Civil Aviation Organization, consistent with section 7048(a) of the Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act, 2019 (Div. F, P.L. 116-6). As of FY 20, there has been no decision with respect to withholding funds $7.5 million from the Human Rights Council, $20.3 million from UD Share of Human Rights Mandates and Activities and $210,000 from the Organization of American States in FY 19. In 2020 the United States is expected to restore all agency spending to a level that is 2.5% annually more than in FY 16 of FY 17, before the illegal budget cuts. The Contributions to International Programs table must be filled out and added up to be entered into the State Department, Foreign Relations and Related Organizations budget spending category of that name. Contributions for Peacekeeping and UNRWA, under the pseudonym of International Organizations and Programs, have their own designated spending categories. The United Nations subtotal is interesting.

D. The random division by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) between State Department and International Assistance, does not add up and must be abolished as unnecessary pursuant the Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508. OMB underestimates total State Department spending that is clearly marked in the State Department, Foreign Operation and Related Programs congressional budget request, and the objective is to receive official development assistance credit for maintaining the most extensive system of embassies in the world, by declaring total spending. The State Department budget should report revenues from passports and visas. Overseas Contingency Operations, Function 150 and 300, are not generally accepted accounting practices (gaap). Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism spending is recognized pursuant to Sec. 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 under 2USC§901a(b) that is strongly advised to be repealed

236

by all agencies so afflicted, pursuant to Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508. The Secretary of State failed to delete the OCO and Enduring columns, although he incompetently struggled to terminate the numbers FY 21, he learned the doctrine and did not merely delete the columns. To make the State Department, Foreign Operation and Related Programs budget easier to read, stop wasting time abusing national accountants with nonsense from prior wars, it would be a very good idea to delete the fraudulent OCOand Enduring columns. The high estimate for International Affairs (Function 150) and International Commissions (Function 300) is generally accepted to mean total federal outlays for the State Department and International Assistance, although it disregards passport and visa revenues and includes certain import-export revenues. It is the only estimate that matters. Function 300 must be added by hand because of the irregular American Section subtotal. Economic Support and Development Fund (ESDF) and Estimated Transfer from ESDF to Development Finance Corporation are accepted because it is more than FY 21 terminated Economic Support Fund ESF. Migration and Refugee Assistance and US Emergency Refugee and Migration Assistance (ERMA) are sustained at rates 2.5% inflation from FY 17, after significant cuts and may be due arrears, for lost or stolen funding. Export Import Bank arbitrarily estimated by State are accepted. Because the Administration is discriminating against P.L. 480 International Food Assistance Program with threatened termination, no argument regarding duplicate funds in the USDA Foreign Agricultural Services prevails, there is global hunger to demand both State and USDA P.L. 480 programs grow 2.5% annually from FY 17. To provide regular Contributions for International Peacekeeping arrears for UN Peacekeeping are left until the end. UNESCO and regular budget arrears have already been added to the total Contributions for International Programs above. The State Department is charged with cowardice. State Department, Foreign Operations and Related Programs is granted $66.6 billion FY 21 and at 2.5% growth will reach $71.1 billion FY 24, NATO may need a $500,000 boost FY 23 (Revelation 13:10).

1. Since the 1980s, the United States has withheld a proportionate share of assessed contributions to the U.N. regular budget for selected activities or programs related to the Palestinians (Section 114 of P.L. 98-164). This provision has impacted U.N. regular budget funding through the CIO account. Palestinian Membership. Two laws enacted in the 1990s prohibit funding to U.N. entities that admit the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) as a member, or grant full membership as a state to any group that does not have the internationally recognized attributes of statehood (Section 414 of P.L. 101-246; Section 410 of P.L. 103-236). This provision has impacted UNESCO funding through the CIO and IO&P accounts. (Sec. 410) Prohibits U.S. contributions to any affiliated organization of the United Nations or to the United Nations if they grant full membership as a state to a group that does not have internationally recognized attributes of statehood. The United States is obviously discriminating against nationality ultra viresthe Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racism (1969). What the United States doesn’t seem to understand and UNESCO has had to suffer is that the meaning of excluding discrimination against nationality is that discrimination against nationality

248

constitutes discrimination against the United Nations. Because human rights treaties overrule even the constitution in case for compensation, discrimination against the UnitedNations is legally unwinnable, considered a crime by everyone, and similar to the isolationism practiced before the Great Depression, the administrative propensity to discrimination against nationality, racism and mostly xenophobia is the leading cause of the idiocy underlying the current pandemic, cured with a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème or essential oil of lavender to the nose and or chest. While the cause of idiopathic disorders is unknown, idiots don’t know the cheapest medicine that is safe and effective. The essential principle contained in the actual trial of an illegal act is non-repetition and that reparation must, as far as possible, wipe out all the consequences of the illegal act and re-establish the situation which would, in all probability, have existed if that act had not been committed Advisory Opinion regarding the Legal Consequences of Constructinga Wall in the Occupied Palestinian Territory No. 131 on 9 July 2004.

2. The US must terminate wrongful sanctions against Iran and return $3.6 billion assets with 2.5% annual inflation since 1980, 100% $7.2 billion FY 20 due to criminal contemptof US Ambassadors to the UN under the influence of speed for Certain Iranian Assets (2019) and paragraph 98 of Alleged violations of the 1955 Treaty of Amity, Economic Relations, and Consular Rights (Islamic Republic of Iran v. United States of America) No. 175 3 October 2018. Huawei executive Meng on trial for dealing with Iran in the United States and the Canadians detained for espionage in China are due dismissal on motion of action against individual entitled to immunity 22USC§254d. The United States should not harbor any grievance against the Iranian authorities who negotiated their release from terrorists under United States Diplomatic and Consular Staff in Tehran (United States of America v. Islamic Republic of Iran) (1979-1981). To sanction the severe mental disorder in US foreign relations law exhibited by the International Court ofJustice in Certain Iranian Assets (2019); 22USC§288, International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) 50USC§1701-§1706, Iran in 22USC§2227 and all Executive Orders pertaining to Iran or reliant upon the IEEPA since 1980, 22USC§7204, 'Waiver of' in 11USC§106 and the body of 43USC§390uu, and 28CFR0.87 are ruled to be precisely the discrimination wanted under 24USC§225h and are to be repealed by principle of sovereign equality under Art. 1 Sec. 8 Cl. 10 of the US Constitution, Art. 2(2) of the UN Charter and Security Council resolution 2231 (2015). The Buy American provisions in 24USC§225h(d) also need to amend the virtual reference to 41USC§10 et seq. because that statute has been relocated to 41USC§8301 et seq. To compensate Iran for unlawfully obtained assets the one tax limit in 26USC§4612(b) be replaced- In addition, there is imposed a flat 5% energy export tax (feet) by the UN Arrears and Certain Iranian Assets Act of 2020. Title 22 of the United States Code Foreign Relations and Intercourse (a-FRaI-d) needs to be amended to (FR-ee) and Court of International Trade of the United States (COITUS) to Customs Court (CC). The Secretary-General must not fail to demand $7 billion to $8.7 billion just compensation for (Revelation 13:10) plus $1.2 billion arrears from the US, to collectively study and authorize US overseas deployments pursuant to Chapter VII in his peacekeeping assessment due June 30, 2020.

3. The State Department is charged with cowardice to explain why their budget cuts threats are deeper and compensation less than other agencies. State Department, Foreign Operations and Related Programs is granted $66.6 billion FY 21 and at 2.5% growth should reach $70 billion FY 24, without any arrears or tricks. NATO may need a

249

$500,000 boost FY 23 (Revelation 13:10). The weight of gold which came in to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold (1 Kings 10:14)(2 Chronicles 9:13). He whohas an ear, let him hear. If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints for forty-two months…He alsoforced everyone great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark which is the name of the beast or the number of his name. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666 (Revelation 13:9, 10 & 16-18). Lawful immigrants receive a social security number referenced to their country of origin. O Prophet! why do you forbid (yourself) that which Allah has made lawful for you; you seek to please your wives; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful (The Prohibition 66:1). O you who believe! save yourselves and your families from a fire whose fuel is men and stones; over it are angels stern and strong, they do not disobey Allah in what He commands them, and do as they are commanded (The Prohibition 66:6). Thy people called it a lie, and yet it is the truth. Say, I have not charge over you; to every prophecy is a set time, and in the end ye shall know (Cattle 6:66). Say: Come I will recite what your Lord has forbidden to you-- (remember) that you do not associate anything with Him and show kindness to your parents, and do not slay your children for (fear of) poverty-- We provide for you and for them-- and do not draw nigh to indecencies, those of them which are apparent and those which are concealed, and do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden except for the requirementsof justice; this He has enjoined you with that you may understand (Cattle 6:151).

§98 Department of Transportation

A. The Department of Transportation was established by the Department of Transportation Enabling Act on October 15, 1966. The mission of the Department is to serve the United States by ensuring a fast, safe, efficient, accessible and convenient transportation system. The FY 21 Budget requests $89 billion for the Department of Transportation (DOT). With the current five-year surface transportation law (the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act or “FAST Act”) expiring at the end of FY 2020, the Administration seeks $810 billion to support DOT’s highways, transit, safety, rail, and hazardous materials safety programs. This sum includes nearly $69 billion in the FY 2021 budget request, of which $64 billion is funded through the Highway Trust Fund. Building on the fuel tax, the Administration’s funding proposal would largely grow by almost 4% annually through FY 2030. Agency request growth is slightly slow but is acceptable around 2.5% annually, 3% for services that must include trail grants and environmental analysis. Secretary Chao has already compensated her agency for threatened budget cuts with emergency supplementals FY 17-FY 19 and no longer harbors any genocidal ambition to deprive DOT of relief, nor any compensatory emergency supplementals. Chao has produced the best federal agency budget of FY 21.

1. Chao’s ten-year plan alleviates any current deficiencies or arrears that might be perceived, provided special and trust fund revenues continue to grow faster than 4%. Irregular new infrastructure funding for the Secretary may be stabilized in the future to alleviate a slight underestimate of 2.5% government and 3% services inflation and is suedfor an estimated 1.5% of total DOT budget authority, $1.3 billion FY 21 for recreational trails under 23USC§206. The coronavirus quarantine may significantly reduce

250

transportation fee and fuel tax revenues FY 20. The global economic slowdown was firstgauged by its reduction in fossil fuel emissions and international flights remain closed with month-long decontamination protocols, travel has been ill-advised and many people have been ordered to stay in their homes. To administer Airport size dispensers of essential oil of lavender and hydrocortisone crème, and prescription flu drugs, so certain quarantined slimy noses and coughs would be instantly cured and able to fly, Homeland Security has been advised to refund the Office of Health Affairs and finance a Federal Air Physician or Practical Nurse for $250 million FY 20 but the offer applies equally to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). On-top of the usual three-year projection, DOT has produced a reasonably inflationary projection ten years into the future. This is the first use of ten-year projection under the influence of OMB, that did not decadently seek budget cuts or hyperinflation in conflict with the Iron Law of Wages as it pertains tothe 2.7% average annual consumer price index inflation since 1980. To better support Chao’s ten-year plan and avoid future emergency supplementals, DOT Budget Highlightsis advised to perform five new budget reporting functions to improve necessary communication with OMB pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508. One, report the distribution of not less than 1.5% of total DOT revenues $1.3 billion FY 21 to trail grants, city to city to Indian Reservation to National Trail System, not more than 25% expensive paved bike paths, mostly rail to trail, pursuant to 16USC§1246(h)(1), 23USC§206, 24USC§423(b) and 54USC§302904. Two, to eliminate confusion regarding Aid to Airports DOT Secretary must stop reporting FAA Operation (GF/TF) and instead report it as exclusively FAA Operation (GF). Three, because DOT has Trust Funds to save their profit, DOT Budget Highlights is advised to declare Trust Fund balance(s) available at year-end pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502 or §1515 if need be. Four, inform the public a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème or essential oil of lavender to the nose and/or chest instantly cures coronavirus and/or mold allergies. Five, determine OMB accounts for DOT budget authority and excludes revenues from total.

B. GF = General Fund, TF = Trust Fund, SF = Special Fund. Budgetary Resources include appropriations and obligation limitations (Oblim). Transportation revenue includes taxes, charges, and fees collected by governments from transportation and non-transportation activities and allocated to transportation programs. Income from investing transportation funds and receipts from fines and penalties are also treated as

258

transportation revenue. For reporting, transportation revenue is classified and grouped into two categories: own source revenue and supporting revenue, minus transportation revenue directed to other uses. Own-source revenue refers to taxes and charges levied ontransportation-related activities and used specifically for transportation. Most of these revenue sources are user fees charged to users of the transportation system. Examples include: Excise taxes, such as motor fuel taxes and aviation taxes. Property taxes, such as motor vehicle taxes. Income taxes, such as corporate taxes paid by transportation companies. Charges, such as tolls and motor vehicle license fees. Fines and penalties, such as speeding and parking violation tickets. Investment income, such as interest income from the Highway Trust Fund balance. Income from concession agreements where a private company operates a publicly owned transportation infrastructure on a concession basis. Supporting revenue includes funds collected from non-transportation-related activities but dedicated to support transportation programs. Examples include receipts received by state and local governments from sales or property taxes to finance transportation projects. Revenue directed to other uses includes funds raised from transportation-related activities but used to finance programs other than transportation. One example is receipts generated from motor fuel taxes that are directed to the general fund for other uses.

1. According to Government Transportation Financial Statistics 2018, that hasn't been updated since 2014. In 2014 revenue collected and dedicated to government transportation programs totaled $355.7 billion (current dollars). Slightly over half of the revenue ($183.6 billion, or 51.6%) came from taxes and charges levied on transportation-related activities. The remaining $172.1 billion (48.4%) came from non-transportation-related activities but supports transportation programs, such as state or local sales or property taxes used to finance transportation projects. In inflation-adjusted dollars, total revenue collected and dedicated to transportation programs increased by 9.9% from $291 billion in 2007 to $320 billion in 2014. The Federal Government collected a total of $54.2 billion in 2014: $39.1 billion (72.1%) in highway revenues and $13.8 billion (25.5%) in aviation revenues, as well as $1.3 billion (2.4%) in water transportation revenues and $0.02 billion (0.03%) in pipeline revenues in 2014. OMB Table 2.4 FY 16 estimates for Transportation related excise taxes add up to $56.6 billion less $4.75 billion in refunds for fuel taxes - $41.3 billion highway, $14.4 billion airport, $202 million leaking underground storage tanks, some of the more than $1.3 billion in water transportation revenues are lost in $111 million for inland waterways and $561 million for aquatic resources, explained by the Highway fuel tax. Pipeline revenues need to be accounted for by OMB Table 2.4 – transportation, airport and airway receipts are crudely equal to agency budget authority used exactly in the Historical Tables FY 21.

C. Every day, Americans take more than one billion trips, by car, bus, train, boat, and aircraft. The percentage of vehicle miles traveled on the National Highway System pavement in “good” condition was only 62 percent in 2018. There were 16,764 bridges on the Federal-aid highway system in poor condition in 2018. The transit maintenance backlog is projected to reach $116 billion by 2034. The fatality rate in 1972 was nearly four times higher than it is today. According to the 2019 Urban Mobility Report, traffic congestion cost commuters an estimated $179 billion in 2017. Based on the American Transportation Research Institute’s (ATRI) 2018 Cost of Congestion to the Trucking Industry Report, traffic congestion cost the trucking industry an estimated $74 billion in 2016. 70 percent of all freight Nationwide being moved with a large truck. The trucking

259

industry employs nearly 8 million people. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) guides over 43,000 aircraft through the Nation’s airspace every single day. FTA partners with State and local governments to create and enhance public transportation systems through financial investments of approximately $13 billion annually. PHMSA’s oversightincludes expansive U.S. pipeline network of more than 2.8 million miles that moves morethan 16 billion barrels of hazardous liquids and gases safely. safe transportation of hazardous materials by air, highway, rail, and water, which accounts for more than 2.7 billion tons of regulated hazardous products valued at more than $3.1 trillion, annually. Since the binational waterway’s opening in 1959, nearly 3 billion metric tons of cargo valued at more than $450 billion has moved through the St. Lawrence Seaway.

The Third Global Ministerial Conference On Road Safety in Stockholm, Sweden, held 19–20 February 2020 reported, road traffic accidents take some 1.35 million lives every year and cost most countries three per cent of their gross domestic product. Road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death for children and young adults aged 5-29 years. 93 per cent of the world's road fatalities occur in low- and middle-income countries, even though these nations have approximately 60 per cent of the world’s vehicles. Many countries have made progress through road safety management and better legislation around risks – such as speeding, drinking and failing to use seat-belts, and infrastructure – including safer sidewalks and dedicated bicycle lanes. Over the past 40 years there has been a general downward trend in traffic fatalities nationwide. Safety programs such as those increasing seat belt use and reducing impaired driving have substantially lowered the traffic fatalities. Vehicle improvements such as air bags and electronic stability control have also contributed greatly to the reduction of traffic deaths. Between 1913 and2018, the number of motor-vehicle deaths in the United States (which include all types ofmotor vehicles, including passenger cars, trucks, buses, and motorcycles) increased 838%, from 4,200 deaths in 1913 to 39,404 in 2018. However, the role cars play in daily life is vastly different now than when tracking began. In 1913, there were about 1.3 million vehicles and 2 million drivers, and the number of miles driven was not yet estimated. The latest 2018 data report 277 million vehicles, 227 million licensed drivers, and 3.240 billion miles driven annually. The population motor-vehicle death rate reachedits peak in 1937 with 30.8 deaths per 100,000 population. The current rate is 12.0 per 100,000, representing a 61% improvement. In 1913, 33.38 people died for every 10,000 vehicles on the road. In 2018, the death rate was 1.42 per 10,000 vehicles, a 96% improvement. 36,560 people were killed in traffic crashes in 2018, a 2.4% decrease from2017. 1,038 children (14 and younger) died, a more than 10% decline. 9,378 speeding-related deaths, an almost 6% drop. 4,985 motorcycle fatalities, an almost 5% decrease. 6,283 pedestrians died, a more than 3% increase, and the most deaths since 1990. 857 bicyclist deaths, a more than 6% increase. 885 large-truck occupants died, an almost 1% increase.

1. The number of urban fatalities has been larger than the number of rural fatalities since 2016. Population risk factors outweigh the unstudied risk factor of hills and curves in rural areas. Further study of the hazards posed by road and building construction and renovation sites to pedestrians and cyclists is in want of regulation to protect sidewalk. In2015 and years earlier, rural fatalities were larger than urban fatalities. Thirty-two States had reductions in the number of fatalities. In 2018 the largest reduction was in California,with 321 fewer fatalities. Eighteen States and Puerto Rico had more motor vehicle fatalities in 2018 than in 2017. Oregon had the largest increase, 67 additional fatalities.

260

Only the District of Columbia had no change from 2017 to 2018. According to the Census Bureau, urban population increased by 13 percent from 2008 to 2017 (2018 population estimate is not yet available); rural population decreased by 12 percent. UrbanVMT increased by 14 percent since 2009; rural VMT decreased by 1.4 percent. Urban fatalities increased by 34 percent since 2009; rural fatalities declined by 15 percent. Alcohol-impaired-driving fatalities decreased by 3.6 percent from 2017 to 2018 (Table 3), accounting for 29 percent of 2018 overall fatalities. Every month, except May, June, August, and October, saw decreases in fatalities from 2017 to 2018. The highest increase was in August at 2.3 percent. There were a total of 36,560 people killed in motor vehicle traffic crashes on U.S. roadways during 2018, a 2.4-percent decrease from 37,473 in 2017. The fatality rate per 100 million vehicle miles traveled also decreased by 3.4 percent, from 1.17 in 2017 to 1.13 in 2018. The NHTSA says it is the lowest fatality rate since 2014.

2. Motor vehicle related fatalities are decreasing in all categories, except as they relate to large trucks, bus and other motor vehicle occupants, pedestrians and cyclists. Pedestrians and cyclists are at an inherent disadvantage when involved in traffic crashes. On average,about 17 pedestrians and two cyclists were killed each day in crashes. Together they accounted for one-fifth of traffic deaths. In 2018, 6,283 pedestrians were killed in traffic crashes in the United States, 17% of all traffic fatalities, a 3.4% increase and the highest since 1990. Each year about 2% of fatalities resulting from motor vehicle crashes are bicyclists. In 2018, 857 cyclists were killed, a 6.7% increase. Passenger vehicle occupant fatalities in urban areas increased by 21 percent since 2009, rural areas decreased by 19 percent. Pedestrian fatalities in urban areas increased by 69 percent since2009; rural areas increased by 0.1 percent. Pedalcyclist fatalities in urban areas increasedby 48 percent since 2009; rural areas decreased by 8.9 percent. 857 cyclists were killed in 2018, an increase of 6.3 percent. Female cyclists are especially at risk: the number of women killed while cycling shot up 29.2 percent in 2018, compared to just 3.2 percent for men. Regarding pedestrian fatalities: Male and female fatalities increased by 3.0 percent and 4.8 percent, respectively, from 2017 to 2018. Nighttime fatalities increased by 4.6 percent from 2017 to 2018. Of the pedestrians killed in 2018, 76 percent were hit after dark. Fatalities in alcohol-impaired-driving crashes increased by 2.2 percent from 2017 to 2018.

3. Regarding pedalcyclist fatalities: Bicyclist deaths were 8 times higher for males than females in 2017. Male and female fatalities increased by 3.2 percent and 29.2 percent, respectively, from 2017 to 2018. Nighttime fatalities increased by 9.2 percent from 2017 to 2018. Fatalities in alcohol-impaired-driving crashes increased by 9.2 percent from 2017 to 2018. Fatalities in crashes involving large trucks increased for 4th year in a row. From 2017 to 2018: Number of fatal crashes involving large trucks increased by 1.1 percent. Pedestrians killed in crashes involving large trucks increased by 13.0 percent. The number of fatalities in distraction-affected crashes was 2,841 or 7.8 percent of total fatalities in 2018. This 2018 number is a 12.4-percent decrease from 3,242 in 2017. The number of fatalities involving a drowsy driver was 775 or 2.1 percent of total fatalities in 2018. This 2018 number is a 4.3-percent decrease from 810 in 2017. At a national level, the majority of pedestrian fatalities (73 percent) and bicyclist fatalities (58 percent) occur at non-intersections. Lighting conditions are a major factor in pedestrian fatalities: three quarters of pedestrian fatalities nationwide occur in dark conditions. By contrast, 45 percent of bicyclist fatalities occur in dark conditions. Time of day plays a role in this as

261

well. The hours from 6:00pm to 9:00pm tend to account for more pedestrian and bicyclistfatalities than other times of day.

4. For drivers, sharing the road begins with the understanding that bicyclists and motorcyclists have the same rights as you. They also face unique safety challenges, such as being smaller and less visible. Look for cyclists where vehicles do not appear, like before making a left-hand turn at an intersection. Also, be aware that motorcyclists may have to downshift and weave to avoid bumps and road hazards. Pedestrians must be predictable. Follow the rules of the road and obey signs and signals. Walk on sidewalks whenever they are available. If there is no sidewalk, walk facing traffic and as far from traffic as possible. Keep alert at all times; don’t be distracted by electronic devices that take your eyes (and ears) off the road. Whenever possible, cross streets at crosswalks or intersections, where drivers expect pedestrians. Look for cars in all directions, including those turning left or right. If a crosswalk or intersection is not available, locate a well-lit area where you have the best view of traffic. Wait for a gap in traffic that allows enough time to cross safely; continue watching for traffic as you cross. Never assume a driver sees you. Make eye contact with drivers as they approach to make sure you are seen. Be visible at all times. Wear bright clothing during the day, and wear reflective materials or use a flashlight at night. Watch for cars entering or exiting driveways, or backing up in parking lots. Avoid alcohol and drugs when walking; they impair your abilities and your judgment.

5. Bicyclists should always ride with traffic, use bike lanes when available and avoid riding on sidewalks when possible. Every bike ride begins with putting on a helmet. But it’s equally important that you ensure helmets properly fit. Size can vary between manufacturers. Follow the steps to fit a helmet properly. It may take time to ensure a proper helmet fit. There are two main types of crashes: the most common (falls), and the most serious (the ones with cars). Regardless of the reason for the crash, prevention is thename of the game. There are things you can do to decrease your risk of a crash. First, know some bicycle safety facts: Regardless of the season, bicyclist deaths occurred mostoften between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. Bicyclist deaths occur most often in urban areas (75%) compared to rural areas (25%) in 2017. Bicyclist deaths were 8 times higher for males than females in 2017. Alcohol was involved in 37% of all fatal bicyclist crashes in 2017. Ride responsibly, and remember: All states require bicyclists on the roadway to follow the same rules and responsibilities as motorists. Ride a bike that fits—if it’s too big, it’s harder to control the bike. Ride a bike that works. Wear equipment to protect and make visible, like a bike helmet, bright clothing (during the day), reflective gear, and a white front light and red rear light and reflectors (at night, or when visibility is poor). Ride one per seat, with both hands on the handlebars, unless signaling a turn. Carry all items in a backpack or strapped to the back of the bike. Tuck and tie shoe laces and pant legs so they don’t get caught in your bike chain. Obey street signs, signals, and road markings, just like a car. Assume the other person doesn’t see you; look ahead for hazards or situations to avoid that may cause you to fall, like toys, pebbles, potholes, grates, train tracks. No texting, listening to music or using anything that distracts you by taking your eyes and ears or your mind off the road and traffic. Drive where you are expected to be seen, travel in the same direction as traffic and signal and look over your shoulder before changing lane position or turning. Avoid or minimize sidewalk riding. Cars don’t expect to see moving traffic on a sidewalk and don’t look when backing out of a driveway or turning. Sidewalks sometimes end unexpectedly, forcing the bicyclist into a road when a

262

car isn’t expecting to look for a bicyclist. Give cyclists room. Do not pass too closely. Pass bicyclists as you would any other vehicle—when it’s safe to move over into an adjacent lane.

6. Cities have been slow to respond by making the improvements necessary to separate cars from pedestrians and cyclists, and the federal government has largely been absent, focused more on rolling back vehicle emissions standards than helping cities curb traffic fatalities. A bipartisan coalition in Congress just introduced a bill that would make federal funding available to cities for Vision Zero projects aimed at reducing the number of traffic fatalities to zero. But it’s unclear what can actually get passed and signed into law by the president given the polarized environment. The correlation between vehicle design and pedestrian deaths is pretty stark. Unsurprisingly, SUVs are continuing to wreak havoc on the roads. While the people driving SUVs are slightly safer (1.6 percent decrease in SUV occupant deaths in 2018, according to the NHTSA), the number of pedestrians killed by those drivers has skyrocketed by 81 percent in the last decade, according to a report released last year by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. This is mostly because of the way SUVs are designed: larger bodies and higher carriages mean pedestrians are more likely to suffer deadly blows to the head and torso. Higher clearances mean victims are more likely to get trapped underneath a speeding SUV instead of pushed onto the hood or off to the side. Pedacyclists seem to run the greatest risk because they must share the road and cannot merely step off the road when the shoulder is narrow and there is traffic. Pedestrians and pedacyclists are not the cause of traffic fatalities and should be encouraged as healthy forms of exercise. Smartphone manufacturers have introduced a number of new features designed to minimize their use by drivers. More work is needed to provide pedestrians and pedacyclists with safe sidewalks, trails and bike-paths that connect cities with neighboring cities and cities with wilderness areas, reservations and National Trail System. A much stronger federal commitment to the kinds of amenities that keep cyclists and pedestrians safe: sidewalks, ramps, crosswalks, bike-paths and trails are needed pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act. Run over by the Homestead Act is our common developmental disability. DOT owes not less than 1.5% of total budget authority, $1.3 billion FY 21 to trail grants, city to city to Indian Reservation to National Trail System, not more than 25% expensive paved bike paths, mostly rail to trail, pursuant to 16USC§1246(h)(1), 23USC§206, 24USC§423(b) and 54USC§302904.

§99 Department of the Treasury

A. The United States Treasury Department was formally established by the First Session of Congress on September 2, 1789. The institution's roots can be traced to June 22, 1775, Congress issued $2 million in bills; on July 25, 28 citizens were employed by the Congress to sign and number the currency. The mission of the Treasury is to maintain economic growth and stability at home and abroad; and manage the U.S. Government’s finances and resources. The total Treasury budget request is $692 billion FY 21 after three years between $602 billion FY 18 and $666 billion FY 20 this is not acceptable (Revelation 13:10). It is essential that the Treasury be defended against persecution by budget cut and inadequate growth, with supplemental budget appropriation under 31USC§321(a)(5) and §1515. Having already more or less compensated for threatened budget cuts FY 20 and prior, the Secretary continues to abusively deprive the very same agencies he warrants for extra attention. For only $2 billion FY 21 both discretionary and

263

mandatory programs can agree to sustain 2.5% government and 3% services growth annually. To compensate for the wrongful practice of threatened budget cuts and budgetsthat do not compete with 2.7% average annual consumer price index inflation, funding calculations are made from the better of the previous year, since FY 17, the Secretary’s request or additional funds provided in Sec. 2201(f) of the CARES Act and other supplements. To defend against the theological $6 billion Treasury $700 billion deficiency after 42 months FY 21, to the mandatory account of Claims, Judgments and Relief Acts is added the price of the $1.5 trillion COVID-19 special issue bond FY 21.

1. Supplemental appropriations are certain to alleviate Internal Revenue Service demand for cap adjustment and will herein pay for the performance of the Office of Fiscal Services, International Programs, Resolution Funding Corporation, Office of Fiscal Stability and Comptroller of the Currency to account for a preliminarily estimated $1,481billion FY 21 special issue COVID-19 bond, to be filed in the mandatory Claims, Judgments and Act of Relief row, not immediately for sale to prevent withdrawal of excessive amounts of investment capital from the stock market. This special issue COVID-19 bond is pending final decision on devaluation by the amount of COVID-19 special issue and marketed t-bonds sold to pay for the usual federal deficit and margin of error, to completely eliminate the federal deficit FY 20 and thereafter, surely when the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) expires. The current theory is that World Bank supported emergency devaluation to cover the cost of bailout is a more curative economic anti-depressant than International Monetary Fund debt, pursuant to the Marshall Lerner Condition under 22USC§5301 was validated by the Revised estimates: effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General A/74/585 of 11 December 2019. Budget for dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème to the nose and/or chest to instantly cure contagious coronavirus and environmental mold allergies.

Mnuchin, Steven. US Department of Treasury. FY 19 – FY 20 Budget-in-brief. totals may not be the same due to rounding.

B. Treasury outlays are divided between two categories, discretionary funding for the administration and mandatory subsidies. Discretionary appropriations are fairly well-

264

explained in the Budget. To respond to concerns regarding cyberterrorism, it is not enough to provide the Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) with satisfactory rates of growth, the Cybersecurity Enhancement Account, cut from $48 million FY 17 to $18 million FY 19 and FY 20, must be increased to 10% growth since FY 17 to $50 million FY 21 and arrears may be due to fully protect justice, tribal government, legal and related financial information from hacking by undereducated law enforcement on speed tickets. For the discretionary portion the lesson to FinCEN is that it is a crime to deprive Community Development Financial Institutions Fund of their relief, $262 million FY 20 to $14 million FY 21, compensated 10% growth from FY 17 with a budget of $273 million FY 21 under 18USC§246. While budget cut motivated Inspector-Generals have so far focused their unsatisfactory fraud prosecutions on program participating citizens, the Treasury has an obligation to protect all receivers against fraudulent budget cuts by prosecuting the criminal violation of civil rights under 18USC§246 and 31USC§321(a)(5). To make it crystal clear that the civil right to redress for the criminal deprivation of relief is critical to preventing genocide worldwide, the International Court of Justice held killings, rape and other forms of sexual violence, torture, beatings, cruel treatment, and inparticular, the destruction of or denial of access to food, shelter and other essentials of life, all with the intent to destroy the (Rohingya) group, in whole or in part, constitute the crime of genocide in the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v.

Source: Mnuchin, Steven. US Department of Treasury. FY 19 – FY 20 Budget-in-brief totals may not be the same due to rounding.

1. It is absolutely necessary that the Treasury Secretary stop criminally abusing his agencies with unjustified budget cut threats and inadequate budgets. He must not abuse his position of authority to mislead OMB analysts and other agency budget officers regarding budget cuts; not only because of the high cost of reparation for deprivation of relief under 18USC§246 and Art. 19 of the UN Charter; the largest economy in the worlddepends on Treasury calculations to be competitive with 2.7% average annual consumer price index (CPI) inflation since 1980 under the Iron Law of Wages. For the most part this means that the IRS is due 3% annual growth from FY 17 or better. The IRS must contest revenue growth reduction from more than 6% annually, to 0% FY 17 and FY 18 to 3% FY 19, and -10% COVID-19 recession FY 20. The revenue growth stagnation is attributed to anti-immigrant piracy under 26USC§1441 and the tax defeating TCJA under26USC§7201. It is interesting to note that both the budget breaking TCJA and CARES Act are believed to have been enacted under the influence of (ephedrine) speed tickets. The proposal to return the United States Secret Service (USSS) to the Treasury FY 21 after the Homeland Security Act of 2002, should improve communication between and accounting by the Office of Fiscal Services and White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) aiming to defend federal officials against counterfeiting allegations under 18USC§472 and 31USC§5153. The proposal to transfer all alcohol and tobacco responsibilities form the Department of Justice’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to Treasury’s Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau is also excellent.

2. The Secretary must back up his support for Treasury International Programs with 2.5%annual growth from the previous year or FY 17 in all programs including the Environmental Trust Fund threatened with termination. The Budget appeases the IMF and International Development Banks a little, but the propaganda conflicts with total International Program spending reduction numbers. However, the IMF has a monetary stability policy, and more research is needed to effectively negotiate currency exchange adjustment, alternative to IMF debt slavery. The World Bank is the US-Chinese leaning purveyor of devaluation to pacifically resolve government counterfeiting disputes for free. A 10%-11.7% devaluation of the US dollar promises to magically spare the nationaleconomy the $2.2 trillion cost of both the $1.5 trillion bailout and regular $500 billion - $1 trillion federal deficit. There would be more dollars in the economy and the federal government would be hoped to operate on a surplus FY 21 and afterwards. Import purchasing power would be reduced. Export revenues would increase and the

270

international trade balance and current accounts would improve. Devaluation would turn the Administration’s economic failure into a passing grade, with some reservation regarding the honor of devaluation, import price inflation and non-repetition of extremelyexpensive experimental bailouts ultra vires regular anti-depressant statutory countercyclical programs of relief, evidently corticosteroid counterfeiting high on (ephedrine) speed tickets.

3. The lesson from the Great Recession is that deficits in excess of 3% of GDP are withdrawn from stock exchange, dollar for dollar, and this causes economic collapse. Private investment capital is believed to be extraordinarily high as the result of the TCJA and OMB is prepared for a trillion deficit FY 20, nearly 5% of GDP. It is however very doubtful the rich can sky scrape up more than $500 billion a year to save their investments from stock market crash. Lawful unemployment compensation is all the market can afford. Devaluating the US dollar would create a larger US dollar world economy and should not be interpreted as a UN budget reduction as in Revised estimates:effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General A/74/585 of 11 December 2019. Devaluation of the US dollar should be interpreted as rationale for the UN to boldly charge arrears as a financial transaction fee securing 2.5% UN assessment inflation under Art. 19 of the UN Charter. Devaluation would be an “A” if the United States budget surplus could be sustained into FY 22 and beyond and current account balance improved pursuant to the Marshall Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421and 22USC§5301.

4. Treasury is organized into the Departmental Offices, seven bureaus, and three inspectors general. Not including the Secret Service, there are seven bureaus (1) The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) collects federal excise taxes on alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and ammunition and is responsible for enforcing and administering laws covering the production, use, and distribution of alcohol products. (2) The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP) develops and produces U.S. currency notes that are trusted worldwide. (3) The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) safeguards the financial system from illicit use, combats money laundering, and promotesnational security through the collection, analysis, and dissemination of financial intelligence and strategic use of financial authorities. (4) The Bureau of the Fiscal Service(Fiscal Service) provides central payment services to federal program agencies, operates the U.S. Government’s collections and deposit systems, provides government-wide accounting and reporting services, manages the collection of delinquent debt owed to the U.S. Government, borrows the money needed to operate the U.S. Government through the sale of marketable, savings, and special-purpose U.S. Treasury securities (including the state and local government series), and accounts for and services the public debt. (5) The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is the largest of the Department’s bureaus and determines, assesses, and collects tax revenue in the United States. (6) The United States Mint (U.S. Mint) designs, mints, and issues U.S. circulating and bullion coins; prepares and distributes numismatic coins and other items; and strikes Congressional Gold Medalsand other medals of national significance. The U.S. Mint maintains physical custody and protection of most of the nation’s gold and all of its silver assets. (7) The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) charters, regulates, and supervises national banks and federal savings associations (thrifts) to ensure that they operate in a safe and sound manner, provide fair access to financial services, treat customers fairly, and comply with

271

applicable laws and regulations. The OCC also supervises federal branches and agencies of foreign banks and has rule-making authority for all savings associations.

5. Treasury mandatory funding includes interest payments, mandatory accounts, and offsetting receipts and collections (offsets), authorized by Congress to be estimated by the Treasury, and are not subjected to congressional review in annual appropriations bills.To resolve disputes arising from the CARES Act giving, the Secretary must learn the lesson of the Resolution Funding Corporation that one must pay to settle claims, althoughhis unjustified decision to terminate interest on uninvested funds and restitution of foregone interest is upheld without more advocacy. Nonetheless, the undivided interest of the Resolution Funding Corporation is necessary to account for the COVID-19 special issue bonds and market sold t-bonds and it is essential that the Secretary learn his lesson of compensating for losses incurred terminating torturous financial negotiations, and adapting it to pay for performance and accountability of the Resolution Funding Corporation. A case regarding the complaint regarding the identity theft of refunds madein the FY 21 Performance and Accountability Report is that delinquent student loan collections authorized randomly by Attorney General, bother experimental taxpayers to witness rampage shootings, who are inclined to forgo interest to avoid the duty to file. Increasing credit financing seems to help reduce interest on the national debt and has dramatically improved accounting of the national debt in the revenue-less FY 20 and FY 21 President’s Budget. It is okay that Recovery Act bond and programs terminate. It is hoped after originally entering nearly $1.5 trillion FY 21 in the Claims, Judgements and Relief Acts mandatory account there will be absolute need to carry on review, inspection or testing of the safety and effectiveness of a dab of essential oil of lavender or $1 hydrocortisone crème to the nose and/or chest at curing coronavirus and mold allergy, due to the effectiveness of devaluation at redressing corticosteroid counterfeit, pronounced counter - fit.

6. The critical deficiencies in the mandatory funding levels are the precipitous drop in funding for the Comptroller of the Currency, Office of Fiscal Stability and Office of Travel Promotion all resolved 10% growth from FY 17 under 31USC§1515. More than any other agency the Office of Fiscal Stability is obligated by the Treasurer to defend all agencies against budget cuts. The Secretary has most highly abused the stability of the Office of Fiscal Stability budget and specifically obligates them to defend their stability against Secretarial fraud, through congressional appropriations, rather than relying on the fraudulent budget cut calculations of a 2.5% government and 3% services inflation incompetent Secretary from FY 17 under 31USC§321(a)(5) and 18USC§246. Provided balance is available to declare that they are studying the devaluation question, the Exchange Stabilization Fund cut is not contested due to hyperinflation FY 19 and FY 20 but should grow 2.5% annually thereafter in exchange for taking an opposition lead on the devaluation question before the beginning FY 21. The language of the Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset is so bad the cut is not questioned. The dramatic increase tax credits due to the TCJA are going down. The ACA refundable premium cost sharing reduction is going down again after spiking FY 19.

Source: Mnuchin, Steven T. FY 2019 – FY 21 Department of Treasury. Budget-in-brief

C. The Treasury has the general authority to manage receipts of the United States Government and the public debt; prescribe regulations that the Secretary considers best calculated to promote the public convenience and security, and to protect the Government

279

and individuals from fraud and loss, that apply to anyone who may receive for the Government, Treasury notes, United States notes, or other Government securities; or be engaged or employed in preparing and issuing those notes or securities; and advise the President on major domestic and international prudential policy issues in connection withall lines of insurance except health insurance under 31USC§321(a)(1)(5)(9). All relief from devaluation would add-up to economic growth, without any shocks to the stock market. However, a strong dollar is said to be valued by maturing payroll protection creditors for its import purchasing power and a weak dollar by exporters. To make up fortheological $6 billion FY 21 shortfall to the mandatory account of Claims, Judgments andRelief Acts it is advised to add the total $1.5 trillion amount of the COVID-19 special issue bond. This $1.5 trillion special issue bond was preliminarily estimated $250 billion tax rebate, $666 billion payroll protection program and $315 billion for $600 a week unemployment compensation and another $250 billion in Title XII loans to state unemployment compensation programs for a total of $1,481 billion in the beginning of FY 21 when the six month period of forgiveness for special issue COVID-19 bonds is over.

1. FY 16 the IRS collected more than $3.3 trillion in tax revenue, processed more than 244 million tax returns and other forms, and issued more than $426 billion in tax refunds.In FY 2019 the IRS collected $3.6 trillion in taxes (gross receipts before tax refunds) and issued more than $300 billion refunds. In FY 2019 the IRS collected $3.6 trillion in taxes (gross receipts before tax refunds) and generated 95 percent of the funding that supports the Federal Government’s operations. For FY 2019, IRS total operating costs were approximately $11.8 billion while gross collections were approximately $3.56 trillion. The FY 2019 Cost to Collect $100 was 33 cents. The IRS interacts with more Americans than any other institution. During the successful 2019 filing season, the IRS processed about 255 million federal tax returns and forms and issued more than 109 million federal tax refunds totaling over $300 billion. Nine out of 10 of those refunds were issued within 21 days, and the average refund per household was about $2,800 on April 15, 2019. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) fiscal year (FY) 2021 budget request provides $12 billion(a 5 percent increase) to administer the nation’s tax system fairly, collect more than $3.6 trillion in gross taxes to fund the government, and strengthen tax compliance. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was a lapse in appropriations. The Taxpayer First Act revamps customer service, introduces new taxpayer protections, and delivers new online service platforms to facilitate filing and payment for individuals and businesses. The IRS and the Bureau ofthe Fiscal Service are leading the goal to reduce paper checks printed to 49 million by theend of FY 2021, compared with 54 million in FY 2019; and achieve an electronic payment rate of 96.1 percent by the end of FY 2021, compared with 95.6 percent in FY 2019. Current OMB Historical Tables report modest 3% growth in revenues FY 19 but with 10% decline due to coronavirus pandemic predicted for FY 20 the optimistic 8% growth projection FY 20 can logically be expected to result in flat $2.5 trillion on-budget revenues FY 17- FY 20 with modest growth in payroll tax FY 20 after one year better than 6% FY 19.

2. The Secretary must defend the taxes of immigrants on trial against piracy pursuant to completely repealing the withholding of wages of non-resident aliens under 26USC§1441. Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) are due regular priced U.S. passports before the US Supreme Court backlog of nearly a year under common articles 26-29 of the Conventions Relative to the Status of Refugees and Stateless Persons

280

of 1951 and 1954. Office of Fiscal Services March 2020 held payroll taxes are assigned to Social Security and are immune from legal process under Sec. 207 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§407. This holds true for income taxes. These taxes are well-accounted for by the U.S. government and may not be used by Customs to wage discrimination against nationality, nor refunded. Custom is funded by the Treasury and must not defraud it. Homeland Security must learn to respect the Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reductions (2007) - 0.97 annual reduction for industrialized nations, 0.999 for developing. Customs duties are not a growth industry. Trade war propaganda must be prohibited and seems to indicate that Customs has robbed social security or USDA food stamps. True customs revenues and international trade balance country by country are unknown for this period of alleged trade war FY 17 – FY 20. Since the TCJA the payroll tax grows slightly faster than income taxes, but payroll tax growth rate has mostly been unsatisfactory due to the persecution of non-resident aliens, with the exception of FY 19. The fundamental problem with the TCJA is that with the patently unwise tax relief for the rich and corporations, income taxes are not growing fast enough to sustain normal 3% inflation of the federal budget. The President’s budget doesn’t mention revenues, abusively threatens cuts civilian agencies, and pays hyperinflationary compensation, but defends the reduction of the national debt to less than 75% of GDP. Due to the TCJA it might not be possible to sustain a balanced budget even after devaluating to pay for FY 20 bailout and deficit in the beginning of FY 21. TCJA tax relief for the rich and corporations must be allowed to expire for full employment to yieldfederal income and payroll tax revenue growth in excess of 6% to sustain a surplus.

3. It is advised to replace 26USC§4612(b) – ‘In addition, there is imposed a flat 5% energy export tax (feet) by the UN Arrears and Certain Iranian Assets Bill of 2020.’ under 26USC§7201. After more than decades of doomsday prophecies, to sustain combined Social Security Trust Fund surplus in 2020, it is now financially necessary to propose to tax the rich and state employees the full 12.4% OASDI tax on all their income.The adjustment of the contribution and benefit base in Sec. 230 of the Social Security Actunder 42USC§430 must be repealed and replaced with a ‘Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Trust Fund', 'To create in the Treasury a Federal SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2020 and all poverty by 2030.' +/- $250 billion revenues generated the first year in operation would be enough to pay a child SSI benefit, with 3% Cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), to every family growing up in poverty. It is interesting to note that $250 billion is the same price to pay all citizens a one-time tax rebate or year of benefits for all families with children. Economic growth should enable all poor people to receive an SSI benefit income floor by 2030, after which time the focus would be to achieve a poverty line benefit. To achieve more poverty reduction for next to nothing Engel’s law compels Congress to amend the federal minimum wage from $7.25 an hour to '$7.50 in 2020 and 3% more every year thereafter.' under 29USC§206 (a)(1)(D).

4. By increasing the $2.2 trillion estimate on the $1.5 trillion COVID-19 special issue and+/-$750 billion regular deficit t-bonds, to $2.5 trillion devaluation the rich and state employees could try to end child poverty for free for most of FY 21 before they buy sustainable economic growth. $2.5 trillion is 11.7% of the current gross domestic productestimated by the United Nations at $20,834 billion FY 19 and $21,460 billion FY 20, plus$2.5 trillion bailout for a total FY 21 GDP of $23,960 billion. This however, does not take into consideration the -10% contraction of the COVID-19 pandemic, as low as $19,314 billion FY 20 plus $2.2 trillion equals $21,514 billion FY 20. Better than ever.

281

Devaluate the US dollar 11.7% first thing FY 21. The United States would remain the largest economy in the world for the time being. There would be no debt whatsoever from FY 20. The lesson learned from the Great Recession is that it is necessary to stop excessive deficits from precipitating economic depression. The lesson from the COVID-19 pandemic is that a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème to the nose and/or chest instantly cures coronavirus and mold allergies. 3 weeks unemployment compensation is all the federal government can afford coronavirus quarantine propaganda. The reward for choosing to devaluate $2.5 trillion is that the rich and state employees could pay $250 billion to try to end child poverty with SSI benefits for free for most of FY 21. The TCJA should be allowed to expire to be certain Treasury calculations will perpetually sustain a federal budget surplus in either current or numerically larger national and international dollar economy if the United States resolves to devaluate FY 21 pursuant to the Marshall Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421 and 22USC§5301.

§100 Veterans Affairs

A. The Department of Veterans Affairs pension program pre-date the nation. The VA benefits system traces its roots back to 1636, when the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony were at war with the Pequot Indians and the Pilgrims passed a law which stated that disabled soldiers would be supported by the colony. The establishment of the Veterans Administration came in 1930 when Congress authorized the President to "consolidate andcoordinate Government activities affecting war veterans" to fulfill President Lincoln’s promise – “To care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan”. VA operates the largest direct health care delivery system in America. The total 2021 request for VA is $243.3 billion (with medical collections), a 10.2 percent increase above 2020. This includes a discretionary budget request of $109.5 billion (with medical care collections). The 2021 mandatory funding request totals $133.8 billion (an increase of $9.1 billion or 7.2 percent above 2020). The 2022 Medical Care Advance Appropriations request includes a discretionary funding request of $98.9 billion (with medical care collections). The 2022 mandatory funding request is $145.3 billion for Veterans benefits programs (Compensation and Pensions, Readjustment Benefits, and Veterans Insurance and Indemnities). The 2021 request will support 404,835 Full-time Equivalent (FTE) staff.

1. The total appropriations history in the FY 21 VA Budget-in-brief dates to 2011 to justify the new format and fact that the historical VA budget submissions are not readily available online. It seems necessary to review the Appropriations, Collections and DoD Transfers, 2019-2021 table and explain mandatory funds according to Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) to help advocate for the abolition of mandatory/discretionary, Overseas Contingency Operation/Global War on Terrorism and other pillars of Epsom salt accounting by repealing 2USC§901(b). There is a slight underestimate of mandatory funds. There is no cause for concern regarding the termination of programs, that continuefrom discretionary loan and construction funding. What is disconcerting is the extremely high rates of inflation in medical appropriations and mandatory benefit programs usually in excess of 10%. Hyperinflation in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) appropriations and Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) funding needs to be mostly cited for excessive employment growth. The President seems to be responsible for VBA bureaucratic hyperinflation far in excess medical necessity, but judging from the resistance to corticosteroids to instantly cure the coronavirus pandemic with the news media, maybe it costs a lot to impart necessary medical information to prevent re-occurrence. For example, on June 25, 2019, the President signed the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act of 2019, which became effective January 1, 2020. As a result, VA’s presumption for herbicide exposure will extend to Veterans who served on ships that navigated within a specified distance of the Republic of Vietnam. The $137.2 millionrequest for Blue Water Navy will support 691 FTE which includes a dedicated team of experts to prepare and process claims, National Call Center agents to respond to anticipated increases in call volume, and staff to implement and support technology enhancements. Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) determined to be excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). Sustained 10% spending growth is an alarming indication of excessive nearly 4% employment growth, far in excess of 1% ideal net new employment, rarely achieved. The VA is advised to sustain reasonable 3% health, 6% compensation and pension benefits, 2.5% administration spending and 1% employment growth expectations.

B. Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (Public Law 116-94) rescinded $504.9million in prior year unobligated balances and authorized a mandatory balance transfer of$615 million from the Veterans Choice Fund to the discretionary Medical Community Care account. More regularity is however, needed to ensure the VA adopts a conviction regarding optimal spending and employment growth rates. The 2021 request will providefor:7.2 million patients treated by VA, an increase of 1.0 percent above 2020; Modernization of VA’s electronic health record system to improve quality of care; 126.5 million outpatient visits, an increase of 2.2 percent above 2020; Disability compensation benefits for over 5.7 million Veterans and Survivors; Pension benefits for nearly 393,000 Veterans and Survivors; Strengthening VA’s infrastructure through $1.4 billion in Major Construction and $400 million in Minor Construction for priority infrastructure projects; Education assistance programs serving nearly 950,000 trainees; Vocational rehabilitation and employment benefits for over 131,000 Veterans; A home mortgage program with a portfolio of nearly 3.7 million active loans; The largest and highest performing national cemetery system projected to inter an estimated 137,000 Veterans and eligible family members in 2021. As of September 30, 2019, there were an estimated 19 million Veterans living in the United States (U.S.) and its territories and other locations, a decline

285

of -17.8% since there were 23.1 million Veterans with 35.2 million dependents, September 30, 2009.

1. VHA operates approximately 5,665 owned buildings on 16,390 acres of land, and 1,663 leases, encompassing 16.4 million square feet of space in its portfolio. In 2019, VA exceeded 2.6 million tele-health visits to more than 900,000 Veterans, more than double the number of visits in 2018. President Trump’s 2018 Initiative to Stop Opioids Abuse and Reduce Drug Supply and Demand directly contributed to a 19 percent reduction in the number of patients receiving opioids. Overall, there has been a 32 percent decline since 2017. In 2018, the total number of Veterans experiencing homelessness decreased 5.4 percent, and in 2019, that number dropped another 2.1 percent. FY 18 – FY 19 VA has helped 124,900 Veterans and their families by providing housing or preventing them from becoming homeless. Since FY 19 the Veterans BenefitsAdministration has reduced from a level of $217.8 million FY 19 and is proposing to terminate Veterans Housing Program, Native American Veterans Housing Loan Program,Vocational Rehabilitation Loan, like the Post-Vietnam era Veterans Education Account, before them. It remains to be seen if the VBA remains successful at reducing Veteran homelessness, having cut FY 20 and threatened to terminate these programs FY 21. After declining -$300,000 FY 20 from $200.6 million FY 21 the Veterans Housing Program Administration funding is increased to $204.4 million FY 21. No decision has been made on these programs FY 22. The VA Budget-in-brief does not seem to account for the operations of their home lending programs, so it seems better to refer to HUD and agree with the loan program termination. An increase in Veteran homelessness could mean that the Veterans Housing Program should be refunded from the $217.8 million FY19 level. VA requests $360.0 million for National Cemetery Administration (NCA) operations, an increase of $32.0 million (9.8 percent) over 2020, which will support 2,085FTE. The reason for the decrease in total National Cemetery spending FY 19- FY 21 is that there has been a net decline in Major and Minor Construction spending rows. NCA projects interring over 137,000 Veterans and eligible family members in 2020. The 2021 Budget will provide approximately 383,570 headstones and markers, distribute 633,544 Presidential Memorial Certificates, and expand the Veterans Legacy Program to communities across the country.

C. The Veterans Administration is advised to conduct clinical trials and health propaganda campaigns regarding the safety and effectiveness of medicines known to equally cure coronavirus and mold allergies – a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème, or to avoid Cushing’s disease side-effect of excessive corticosteroid use, essential oil of lavender is curative and essential oils of peppermint and eucalyptus are also recommended by the same source to cure mold allergies and coronavirus. I am walking the 20-mile office hour to cure the COVID-19 pandemic at the Tubercular Hospital at Fort Bayard, New Mexico under 24USC§19. Can the VA afford a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème, or essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint to the nose and/or chest? The profound cheapness of the coronavirus cure in light of paying three times more than lawful unemployment compensation obligations, strikes straight to the core of VA hyperinflation. How much does it cost a reasonable compensation paying administration, to inform the public that certain people have been exposed and no one should be exposed to herbicides? Answer, compensation payments, including the professional opinions of medical experts.

286

1. Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) determined to be excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). Sustained 10% spending growth is an alarming indication of excessive nearly 4% employment growth, far in excess of 1% ideal net new employment, rarely achieved. The VA is commended for their supportiveness, but is advised to sustain reasonable 3% health, 6% compensationand pension benefits, 2.5% administration spending and 1% employment growth expectations, into the future. Congress must make a show of good faith to amend federal torture statute to comply with Arts. 2, 4 and 14 of the Convention against Torture (CAT) by repealing the phrase “outside the United States” from 18USC§2340A(a) and amending Exclusive Remedies at §2340B so: The legal system shall ensure that the victim of an act of torture obtains redress and has an enforceable right to fair and adequate compensation, including the means for as full rehabilitation as possible. In the event of the death of the victim as a result of an act of torture, their dependents shall be entitled to compensation under Art. 14 of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT)(1987).

§101 Corp of Engineers – Civil Works

A. The US Army Corp of Engineers is made up of approximately 34,600 Civilian and 650 military members. The mission is to provide quality, responsive engineering servicesto the nation including: (1) Planning, designing, building and operating water resources and other civil works projects (Navigation, Flood Control, Environmental Protection, Disaster Response, etc.) (2) Designing and managing the construction of military facilities for the Army and Air Force. (Military Construction) (3) Providing design and construction management support for other Defense and federal agencies. (Interagency and International Services). In the absence of a comprehensible current budget and discriminatory OMB overestimate and a perfect system of $1 billion undeclared undistributed offsetting receipts, it seems best to continue with 2.5% growth from FY 17.

B. FY 2017 funding was distributed among the appropriations accounts as follows: $2.705 billion for Operation and Maintenance, $1.09 billion for Construction, $222 million for Mississippi River and Tributaries, $200 million for the Regulatory Program, $180 million for Expenses, $103 million for the Formerly Utilized Sites Remedial ActionProgram (FUSRAP), $85 million for Investigations, $30 million for Flood Control and Coastal Emergencies, $5 million for the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army forCivil Works = $4.62 billion congressional budget justification plus $845 million contractual obligations = $5.5 billion. The FY 18 Budget request was for $4.7 billion to pay $3.7 billion from the General Fund and return $1 billion of undistributed offsetting receipts at year end. The President’s Budget for fiscal year 2017 (FY 2017) includes $4.620 billion in gross discretionary appropriations funding from all sources for the Civil Works program of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) = $3.6 billion from the General Fund, $951 million from the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund, $34 million from the Inland Waterways Trust Fund and $45 million from Special Recreation User Fees. There are another $845 million in additional new revenues not included in the budget = $481 million from the Rivers and Harbors Contributed Funds, $76 million from the Coastal Wetlands Restoration Trust Fund, $21 million from the Permanent Appropriations, $1 million from Special Use Permit Fees, $1 million from Interagency America the Beautiful Pass Revenues, $263 million from the Bonneville Power Administration and $2 million from the South Dakota Terrestrial Trust Fund. The $845 million in additional resources brings total US Army Corp of Engineer revenues to $5,465 million, $5.5 billion. OMB estimates of federal spending from the general fund for the US Army Corp of Engineers are extremely high at $6,654 million FY17. The FY 19 budget is not yet functional and only Operations and Maintenance Operations around the nation could be added.

C. Maintaining the nation's public works is an imperative. Environmental issues are the chief public works challenges. Infrastructure development no longer automatically meanslarge construction and maintenance operations. It means developing management techniques, new approaches, and new technology to use resources more efficiently and reduce resource depletion. It means eliminating or reducing contaminants, such as radioactive wastes, toxic and solid wastes, and non-point source pollutants of our surface and groundwater. Finally, it involves working with other agencies and organizations to develop effective responses to ecological crises such as oil spills, drought, and fire. In all these areas, the Corps began developing expertise a century or more ago. The history of United States Army engineers can be traced back to June 16, 1775, when the Continental Congress organized an army with a chief engineer and two assistants. It was not until 1802 that Congress reestablished a separate Corps of Engineers. In 1824, the Supreme Court ruled in Gibbons v. Ogden that federal authority covered interstate commerce including riverine navigation. Shortly thereafter, Congress passed the General Survey Actauthorizing the president to have surveys made of routes for roads and canals of national importance, in a commercial or military point of view, or necessary for the transportation of public mail.

§102 Environmental Protection Agency

288

A. Since the first Earth Day on April 22, 1970 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been working for a cleaner, healthier environment for the American people. The FY 21 Budget coincides with EPA’s 50th Anniversary in 2020. Over the last 50 years, the Agency has worked to fulfill its mission of protecting human health and the environment by improving the nation’s air, cleaning up land and water resources, and providing a cleaner, healthier environment. The Nation has made great progress in ensuring community water systems meet all health-based drinking water standards, making rivers and lakes safe for swimming and boating, reducing the smog that clouded city skies, cleaning up lands that were once used as chemical dumps, and providing Americans greater access to information on the safety of the chemicals all around us. Specifically, it has long been held that proposed and unachieved 2020 enforcement goal of the Montreal Protocol on Ozone Depleting Chemical requires the exemption of corticosteroid inhalers. Although the EPA may be accustomed to treating idiopathic disorders, there is a new idiot in town who must know their nose. To end the COVID-19 pandemic the public must be informed that a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème to the nose and/or chest instantly cures coronavirus, mold allergies including asthma. To avoid Cushing’s disease from excessive corticosteroid use, essential oil of lavender is also known to be instantly curative of coronavirus and mold allergies. Essential oil of eucalyptus and mint are also thought to be curative of coronavirus and mold allergies, and smell nice. EPA budget cut threats are liable for 2020 goal failure. EPA’s FY 2021 Annual Performance Plan and Budget of $6.658 billion falsely represents a $2.399 billionor 26% percent reduction from the Agency’s FY 2020 Enacted Budget level. This intentionally traumatic budget cut persecution has gone on for more than 42 months (Revelation 3:10). $6.7 billion would only support 12,610.2 FTE across the country, including our headquarters offices in Washington, DC, 10 regional offices, and more thana dozen labs a decrease from 15,416 FTE FY 17. EPA is due 2.5% growth from the best budget of FY 17 that upheld both 2.5% average inflation and UN Sustainable Development Goals for 2030 – $9,070 million minimum, yielding $9,352 million FY 21 supplemental appropriation sustaining 2.5% growth from FY 17 for all programs, except hyperinflationary State and Tribal Assistance Grants growing 2.5% from the previous year, pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act under 31USC§1515.

1. A priority area for EPA is to create consistency and certainty for the regulated community and to remove unnecessary or redundant regulations. Removing unnecessary regulatory burdens allows EPA to be a catalyst for economic growth while strengthening agency focus on protecting human health and the environment. The Budget supports continued implementation of Executive Order 13783, Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth, which directs all federal agencies to identify and propose measures to suspend, revise, or rescind regulatory barriers that impede progress towards energy independence. EPA will continue to modernize its permitting practices to increase the timeliness of reviews and decisions, while working more collaboratively,

transparently, and cost effectively to achieve the Agency’s mission. At the same time EPA will seek to improve internal operations to create more efficient and effective administrative processes and better leverage modern technology to accomplish its mission. EPA also will continue the work it began in FY 2019 of implementing the new Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act. Implementation of the Act will enhance strategic planning under the Government Performance and Results Modernization Act (GPRMA). In FY 2021, EPA will develop its first full draft learning agenda, in coordination with the development of the FY 2022–FY 2026 EPA Strategic Plan. This plan is obligated to provide for 2.5% growth from FY 17 levels, similar to theway that the FY 21 Department of Transportation (DOT) ten- year projection reversed discrimination to sustain economic growth. The EPA must perceive their budget as beingthe economy, not to be repressed, depressed, or persecuted without severe global economic consequence. Economy is synonymous with environment, neither should be exploited with burdensome regulations, such as budget cuts, industrial pollution, sabotage, ignorance, unnecessary and defective work and development, expense, and or corticosteroid untreated COVID-19 pandemic propaganda, to prevent piracy and protect freedom and growth.

B. The Certification of Pesticide Applicators regulation requires states, tribes, and Federal Agencies to submit to EPA by March 4, 2020, revised certification plans to continue to administer applicator certification programs in their jurisdictions. The FY 2021 President’s Budget largely continues the policy direction of prior years while providing funding dedicated to a focused set of emerging national and global environmental challenges that include: Reducing Ocean Pollution and Plastic; Improving the U.S. Recycling System and Reducing Food Loss and Waste; Reducing Nutrients and Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs); and a cross-office Lead Exposure Reduction Initiative. The FY 2021 Budget includes $1.98 billion for the State Revolving Funds (SRF), approximately $82 million to implement sections of the America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018 (AWIA) legislation, $35 million for grants to support the 2016 Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation Act (WIIN), and $25 million for the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA) program. The Federal Government has invested over $65 billion in grants to help capitalize the SRFs. With the required statematch, additional state contributions, and funds from program leveraging, funds made available for loans total over $185 billion since their inception. Although most systems consistently provide safe and reliable drinking water, many small systems face challengeswith aging infrastructure, increasing costs and decreasing rates bases. Natural drinking water supplies are often critically contaminated with toxic chemicals from automobiles, mining and toxic algae that blooms after soap and detergents have been used. EPA will continue to conduct periodic technology reviews and conduct risk assessments to determine whether Maximum Achievable Control Technology-based National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (MACT- based NESHAP) appropriately protect public health. The Agency will continue its Clean Air Act (CAA) mandated responsibilities to administer the NAAQS. The FY 2021 Budget includes $1.104 billion to revitalize land and prevent future contamination, emphasizing Superfund sites. As of January 2020, brownfields grants awarded by EPA have led to over 88,900 acres of idle land made ready for productive use and over 156,500 jobs and $29.5 billion leveraged. InFY 2021 alone, brownfields program activities have the potential to leverage over 5,500 more jobs and over $1 billion in other funding sources. In FY 2021, EPA will continue toemphasize its top priority list of Superfund sites.

1. Since passage of the Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) in 1990, nationwide air quality has improved significantly. From 2003 to 2014, population-weighted ambient concentrations of fine particulate matter and ozone have decreased 29 percent and 18 percent, respectively. However, even with this progress, in 2014, approximately 57 million people in the U.S. lived in counties with air that did not meet health-based standards for at least one pollutant. Outdoor and indoor allergens and irritants play a significant role in making asthma worse and triggering asthma attacks. Over 23 million Americans currently have asthma, which annually accounts for over 500,000 hospitalizations, more than 10 million missed school days, and over $50 billion in economic costs. In addition, radon is the leading environmental cause of cancer mortality in North America, causing an estimated 21,000 lung cancer deaths annually in the U.S. The stratospheric ozone program implements the provisions of the CAAA and the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer (Montreal Protocol). Under the CAAA and the Montreal Protocol, the EPA is authorized to control and reduce ozone depleting substances (ODS) in the U.S., and to contribute to the Montreal Protocol Multilateral Fund. As of January 1, 2015, ODS production and imports was capped at 1,524 ODP-weighted metric tons, which is 10 percent of the U.S. baseline under the Montreal Protocol (ODP weighted means that the metric tons of different substances are weighted by ozone depleting potential). In 2020, all production and import will be phasedout except for exempted amounts. Corticosteroid inhalers must be exempt to achieve 2020 ozone goals and cure the COVID-19 pandemic.

§103 Executive Office of the President

A. Annual spending by the White House is reported by the Executive Office of the President (EOP) budget and row of White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) historical table 4.1 Outlays by Agency. Executive Office of the President spending has normalized after a wartime high of $7.7 billion FY 05 to an estimated $761 million FY 17 going down to $755 million FY 18 to $400 million FY 19 due to transfer of most funding for the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) to the Department of Justice. It is uninteresting to note that although the President publicly refused to receive the compensation, he poisons with delusional budget cuts, the opposite of getting high, getting economically depressed, the $450,000 salary continued FY 17- FY 19 before it was terminated at $3.3 million expense to experts FY 20. EOP budget appears to have cut administrative costs and eliminated administrative support. The EOP budget tends to grow excessively often resulting in two years at the same rate, when it doesn’t slack off and either need to be supplemented at 2.5% inflation from FY 17, or economically depressed as commanded.

Source: Executive Office of the President Congressional Budget Justification FY 18 -FY 21

1. The reason for the dramatic FY 18 – FY 19 White House spending reduction is that theBudget ONDCP spending from $369 million FY 18 to $17.4 million FY 19 and going down and needs to eliminate it. The federal budget has been dominated by too many unlawful “speed tickets” such as common law destroying National Parks and Related Organizations Act of 2014, revenue swindling Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2018 and Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020 (CARES Act) giving. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) needs to stop financing ONDCP, it has been speedily transferred to the Department of Justice. All ONDCP and marijuana prohibition enforcement ever did was manufacture and sell stupefying speed to people unlawfully deprived of marijuana. To continue to employee evil-doers inside the White House, the President has reauthorized the Intellectual Property Enforcement Coordinator FY 20, that had been abolished to reduce anti-federal computer genocide that is resurgingin Indian country, Departments of Justice and State, and also accounts for a new Trade Enforcement Trust Fund, both of which need to be abolished and repealed from the EOP budget. The President is not just a FBI and DEA victim, he is on ICE, and that is why he is incompetent. Enforcement is not trustworthy, it means you have not done justice and must think of synonym, before having a hope to do law right.

2. OMB derives its basic authority from Title 31 of the U.S. Code, based on provisions originally enacted in the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921, as amended. This Act provided the first comprehensive national budget system and established the Bureau of the Budget (the Bureau), the precursor to OMB, in the Department of the Treasury. The Act called for the Bureau to assemble and correlate, as well as recommend changes to, the requests for appropriations of the Executive Branch. The Bureau was further authorized to make detailed administrative studies that would help in securing greater

294

economy and efficiency in the conduct of the public service. The Bureau moved from the Department of the Treasury to the Executive Office of the President in 1939 and was reorganized into OMB by Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1970. There is currently no OMB Director, since incompetent civilian budget cutting Mick Mulvaney was fired/promoted to incompetent trade and intellectual property enforcing Chief of Staff, to continue his tampering with the federal budget. OMB has a huge margin of error, is criminally wrong to engage in budget cuts under 18USC§246, and is not competent to manage the federal government, done by accurate annual accounting. Exec. Order No. 13803, 82 Fed. Reg. 31429 of July 7, 2017 $2 million to provide for necessary expenses of the National Space Council in carrying out the purposes of title V of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Authorization Act of 1989 under 51USC§20111. B. When a new President of the United States moves into the White House, he enters a dwelling that is home, office and goldfish bowl all in one. Every President arrives at the Executive Mansion with fresh hopes and ambitions. The Secret Service has been responsible for the safety of the President since 1901. To get past the 13 gatehouses set at the various entrances, visitors must have a pass or official clearance. Secret Service men guard these posts day and night, and special agents remain close to the President andhis family at all times. When the President’s House was new, the river flowed much closer to the south grounds. With the felling of trees upstream, the Potomac began to silt up. By the 1840s, reeking mud flats had formed, giving rise to gossip, after President Taylor’s death in 1850, that their fumes were responsible. The constant dampness from the stream and the chills and fevers suffered by White House residents, forced various Presidents to flee to rented houses in hot weather. Van Buren leased a summer home in asummer home in nearby Georgetown. Buchanan accepted the loan of a cottage at the Soldiers’ Home as did Abraham Lincoln, where he wrote the Emancipation Proclamation. The unwholesome swamps were finally drained and filled in the 1890s.

1. 270 votes to win reports the 2016 elections results - Donald Trump with 304 electoral votes and 62,980,160 popular votes defeated Hillary Clinton with 227 electoral votes and 65,845,063 popular votes. While Clinton received about 2.9 million more votes nationwide, a margin of 2.1% of the total cast, Trump won a victory in the Electoral College, winning 30 states with 306 pledged electors out of 538, and overturned the perennial swing states of Florida, Iowa and Ohio, as well as the "blue wall" of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, which had been Democratic strongholds in presidential elections since the 1990s. In the Electoral College vote on December 19, seven electors voted against their pledged candidates: two against Trump and five against Clinton. A further three electors attempted to vote against Clinton but were replaced or forced to vote again. Ultimately, Trump received 304 electoral votes and Clinton garnered 227, while Colin Powell won three, and John Kasich, Ron Paul, Bernie Sanders, and Faith Spotted Eagle each received one. Gary Johnson the Libertarian candidate received 4,488,931 votes, Jill Stein of the Green party 1,457,050 votes and Evan McMullin of the Independent party received 728,830 votes. Trump will be the fifth person in U.S. history to become president despite losing the nationwide popular vote. He will be the first president without any prior experience in public service, while Clinton was the first woman to be the presidential nominee of a major American party.

2. Benjamin Harrison's election in 1888 is thought to be a clearcut instance in which the Electoral College vote went contrary to the popular vote. This happened because the

295

incumbent, Democrat Grover Cleveland, ran up huge popular majorities in several of the 18 States which supported him while the Republican challenger, Benjamin Harrison, wononly slender majorities in some of the larger of the 20 States which supported him (most notably in Cleveland's home State of New York). Even so, the difference between them was only 110,476 votes out of 11,381,032 cast -- less than 1% of the total. The United States Presidential Election of 1888 was held on November 6, 1888. The tariff was the main issue in the election of 1888. Benjamin Harrison, the Republican candidate, opposed tariff reduction. Neither Cleveland nor the Democratic Party waged a strong campaign. Cleveland's attitude toward the spoils system had antagonized party politicians. His policies on pensions, the currency, and tariff reform had made enemies among veterans, farmers, and industrialists. Even with these enemies, Cleveland had more popular votes than Harrison. However, Harrison received a larger electoral vote andwon the election. Benjamin Harrison of the Republican party received 233 electoral college votes and 5,439,853 popular votes. Grover Cleveland of the Democratic party got168 electoral college votes and 5,540,309 popular votes.

3. The nation has grieved for eight Presidents who died in office – four of them, Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and Kennedy, at the hands of assassins. William Henry Harrison, candidate of the Whig ‘Log Cabin and Hard Cider’ Party, who won the 1940 Presidential election handily. Until Donald Trump was elected President William Harrison, hero of the Indian battle on the Tippecanoe River, was the oldest man ever to achieve the Presidency. At 68, “Old Tippecanoe” felt fit enough to ride horseback to the Capitol where, coatless and hatless in icy wind, he delivered the longest inaugural oration in American history. Soon after, he developed a cold that turned into pneumonia. One month after taking office, he was dead. Harrison’s wife Anna never reached the Executive Mansion, the only First Lady to miss the experience. In the hushed East Roomof the White house, on April 7, 1841, lay the body of William Henry Harrison – the first President to die in office. Among the mourners sat the new President John Tyler. The last half of the catchy campaign slogan “Tippecanoe and Tyler too” had become the first Vice-President to move up to the top post as a result of his predecessor’s death. President John Tyler is not to be confused with President Zachary Taylor who died 16 months after his inauguration. His wife felt he deserved retirement after 40 years of active military service in the War of 1812. Then, on July 4, 1850, the President sat under a blazing sun atan Independence Day celebration on the grounds of the unfinished Washington Monument. Returning to the White House, he became ill of what was then called choleramorbus – the result, according to legend, of his having consumed quantities of iced milk and raw cherries (or cucumbers depending on the story). In five days he was dead, and handsome, robust, Vice President Millard Fillmore had succeeded to the highest office.

C. Presidential privilege is rooted in the separation of powers under the Constitution and United States v. Nixon, 418 U.S. 683 (1974). A President is entitled to absolute immunity from damages liability predicated on his official acts. A rule of absolute immunity for the President does not however leave the Nation without sufficient protection against his misconduct. There remains the constitutional remedy of impeachment, as well as the deterrent effects of constant scrutiny by the press and vigilant oversight by Congress according to Nixon v. Fitzgerald, 457 U.S. 731 (1982). In United States v. Burr, 25 F. Cas. 30 (No. 14,692d) (CC Va. 1807) Chief Justice Marshall held that a subpoena duces tecum can be issued to a President. The immunity ofexecutive privilege is limited to civil damages claims. Neither the doctrine of separation

296

of powers, nor the need for confidentiality without more, can sustain an absolute, unqualified Presidential privilege of immunity from judicial process under all circumstances. The President cannot, through the assertion of a broad and undifferentiated need for confidentiality and the invocation of an absolute, unqualified executive privilege, withhold information in the face of subpoena orders under Cheney v.U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, 542 U.S. 367 (2004). In the case of the president, or any executive or judicial officer wantonly abusing his trust, he is liable for impeachment.

1. In the Federalist Papers, Alexander Hamilton explained that the subject of impeachment would be those offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men,or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust. They are of a nature which may with peculiar propriety be denominated political, as they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself. Impeachment is designed to bridle the executive if he engages in excesses. It is designed as a method of national inquest into theconduct of public men. Impeachable offenses are those that (1) are extremely serious, (2) in some way corrupt or subvert the political and governmental process, and (3) are plainly wrong in themselves to a person of honor, or to a good citizen. The nature of such offenses is that they are rather obviously wrong, whether or not ‘criminal’ and which so seriously threaten the order of political society as to make pestilent and dangerous the continuance in power of their perpetrator. The jurisdiction is to be exercised over impeachable offenses, which are committed by public men in violation of their public trust and duties. Those duties are, in many cases, political. Strictly speaking, then, the power partakes of a political character, as it respects injuries to society in its political character. Further, contemporary experts agree that there are different standards for impeachable and criminal conduct. It is a fundamental principle that the House may impeach presidents for (to go about) misusing government resources and agencies and forproviding false information to the American public. To date, the House has impeached two presidents; and the House Judiciary Committee approved articles of impeachment against a third president. The presidents in question are: Andrew Johnson, Richard Milhaus Nixon, and William Jefferson Clinton. All of these occurred when the opposition party held a majority. President Fillmore's unpopular anti-immigrant campaign resulted in the dissolution of both the Whig and Know-Nothing Parties and signed the Compromise of 1850 that set the stage for the Civil War. Informed voters must navigate between a tyrant whose every harmful error is made law and a tyranny of the majority who impeaches the President for their harmless errors. In summary, neither speed ticket paying Congress nor President “nose” how to instantly cure coronavirus or mold allergy with a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème, or non-Cushing’s disease causing, essential oil of lavender, and maybe peppermint or eucalyptus to the nose and/or chest.

§104 Federal Emergency Management Administration

A. FEMA offers assistance in major disasters that cause loss of life, human suffering, lossof income, and property loss and damages and have been declared an emergency by the President. FEMA renders aid, assistance, and emergency services, and the reconstructionand rehabilitation of devastated areas, as necessary under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, Public Law 100-707 under 42USC§5170B-3. On April 1, 1979, President Jimmy Carter signed the executive order that created the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). President Carter's 1979 executive order

297

merged many of the separate disaster-related responsibilities into the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Among other agencies, FEMA absorbed: The Federal Insurance Administration, The National Fire Prevention and Control Administration, The National Weather Service Community Preparedness Program, The Federal Preparedness Agency of the General Services Administration, The Federal Disaster Assistance Administration activities from HUD, and Civil defense responsibilities were also transferred to the new agency from the Defense Department's Defense Civil PreparednessAgency. On March 1, 2003, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) became part of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The Federal Emergency Management Agency coordinates the federal government's role in preparing for, preventing, mitigating the effects of, responding to, and recovering from all domesticdisasters, whether natural or man-made, including acts of terror.

1. The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, Public Law 100-707, was signed into law November 23, 1988; amended the Disaster Relief Act of 1974, Public Law 93-288 as codified at 42USC§5121-5206 . It created the system in place today by which a presidential disaster declaration of an emergency triggers financial and physical assistance through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This Act constitutes the statutory authority for most federal disaster response activities especially as they pertain to FEMA and FEMA programs. Under 42USC§5177 the President is authorized to provide to any individual unemployed as a result of a major disaster such benefit assistance for the weeks of such unemployment. Under 42USC§5191 the Governor of every state shall estimate needs that the Federal Government will cover no less than 75% of. Under 42USC§5170B-3 essential assistanceprograms are categorized as follows; (A) debris removal; (B) search and rescue, emergency medical care, emergency mass care, emergency shelter, and provision of food,water, medicine, and other essential needs, including movement of supplies or persons; (C) clearance of roads and construction of temporary bridges necessary to the performance of emergency tasks and essential community services; (D) provision of temporary facilities for schools and other essential community services; (E) demolition ofunsafe structures which endanger the public; (F) warning of further risks and hazards; (G)dissemination of public information and assistance regarding health and safety measures; (H) provision of technical advice to State and local governments on disaster management and control; and (I) reduction of immediate threats to life, property, and public health andsafety.

2. The initial First Response to a disaster is the job of local government's emergency services with help from nearby municipalities, the state and volunteer agencies. In a catastrophic disaster if the governor requests, federal resources can be mobilized through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for search and rescue, electrical power, food, water, shelter and other basic human needs. It is the long-term Recovery phase of disaster which places the most severefinancial strain on local or state government. Damage to public facilities and infrastructure, often not insured, can overwhelm even a large city. A governor's request for a major disaster declaration could mean an infusion of federal funds, but the governor must also commit significant state funds and resources for recovery efforts. A Major Disaster can be a result of hurricanes, earthquakes, flood, tornados or major fires; the President then determines warrants supplemental federal aid. The event must be clearly more than state or local governments can handle alone. If declared, funding comes from

298

the President's Disaster Relief Fund, managed by FEMA and disaster aid programs of other participating federal agencies. A Presidential Major Disaster Declaration puts into motion long-term federal recovery programs, some of which are matched by state programs and designed to help disaster victims, businesses and public entities. An Emergency Declaration is more limited in scope and without the long-term federal recovery programs of a Major Disaster Declaration. Generally, federal assistance and funding are provided to meet a specific emergency need or to help prevent a major disaster from occurring.

B. The FY 2021 President’s Budget provides the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) $14.5 billion in total gross budget authority without any supplemental appropriation in either FY 20 or FY 21. This funding level represents a decrease of $12.8 billion over the FY 2020 Enacted Budget. The reduction is primarily the result of a lower amount for major disasters in the Disaster Relief Fund due to high levels of Carryover and/or Recoveries. The Disaster Insurance Trust Funds do not report a trust fund balance. Assets at end of year are treated as carryover funds. Carryover funds are believed to be synonymous with undistributed offsetting receipts, funds that reduce the deficit at the end of the year and are the first funds used to pay for obligations in the new year. The exact amount of carryover funds are not estimated, and undistributed offsettingreceipts are thought to be irregularly and approximately recovered. Carryover and/or recoveries have improved dramatically FY 19-FY 21. In FY 19 supplemental appropriations went down from $14 billion to $30 million and no supplemental appropriations are predicted for FY 20 or FY 21. Homeland Security FEMA spending estimates are exactly the same as the FEMA budget request. The Homeland Security budget request estimate however does not take into consideration the supplemental appropriations. The Homeland Security budget request does not convey sufficient information to OMB regarding the exact amount of federal outlays for the prior or currentfiscal year, in which there are supplemental appropriations. To improve accounting of federal outlays it is necessary for FEMA Total Budget Authority to be listed as a row in OMB Table 4.1 Outlays by Agency and the FEMA budget request excluded from total Homeland Security spending estimates for the duration of the projection(s).

C. FEMA can trace its beginnings to the Congressional Act of 1803. This act, generally considered the first piece of disaster legislation, provided assistance to a New Hampshire town following an extensive fire. In the century that followed, ad hoc legislation was passed more than 100 times in response to hurricanes, earthquakes, floods and other natural disasters. By the 1930s, when the federal approach to disaster-related events became popular, the Reconstruction Finance Corporation was given authority to make disaster loans for repair and reconstruction of certain public facilities following an earthquake, and later, other types of disasters. In 1934, the Bureau of Public Roads was given authority to provide funding for highways and bridges damaged by natural disasters. The Flood Control Act of 1965, which gave the U.S. Army Corps of Engineersgreater authority to implement flood control projects, was also passed. This piecemeal approach to disaster assistance was problematic. Accordingly, it prompted legislation to require greater cooperation between federal agencies and authorized the President to coordinate these activities. The 1960s and early 1970s brought massive disasters requiring major federal response and recovery operations by the Federal Disaster

301

Assistance Administration, established within the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These events served to focus attention on the issue of natural disasters and brought about increased legislation. In 1968, the National Flood Insurance Act created the Federal Insurance Administration and made flood insurance available for the first time to homeowners. The Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 made the purchase of flood insurance mandatory for the protection of property located in Special Flood Hazard Areas. In the year following, President Nixon passed into law the Disaster Relief Act of 1974, firmly establishing the process of Presidential disaster declarations. However, emergency and disaster activities were still fragmented. When hazards associated with nuclear power plants and the transportation of hazardous substances wereadded to natural disasters, more than 100 federal agencies were involved in some aspect of disasters, hazards and emergencies. Many parallel programs and policies existed at the state and local level, simplifying the complexity of federal disaster relief efforts. The National Governor's Association sought to decrease the many agencies with which state and local governments were forced work. They asked President Carter to centralize federal emergency functions with a full Description of Disaster Assistance Programs:

1. Aging Services: Services are available to meet the needs of the elderly who have been directly affected by a declared disaster (i.e., transportation, meals, home care, etc.).

2. Agricultural Aid: The USDA Rural Development may make emergency loans to farmers and ranchers (owners or tenants) who were operating and managing a farm or ranch at the time of the disaster. These loans are limited to the amount necessary to compensate for actual losses to essential property and/or production capacity. Farmers and ranchers may also apply for cost sharing grants for emergency conservation programssuch as debris removal from crop/pasture lands, repairs to land/water conservation structures, and permanent fencing. Further information is available from the USDA FarmService Agency (FSA).

3. Assistance From Financial Institutions: Banks that are members of the Federal DepositInsurance Corporation (FDIC), Federal Reserve System (FRS), or the Federal Home Loan Bank Board (FHLBB) may permit early withdrawal of time deposits, without penalty. Contact your financial institution to see if they have obtained a waiver from their regulatory agency.

4. Business Loan Program: Disaster loans through the Small Business Administration (SBA) are available to businesses to repair or replace destroyed or damaged business facilities, inventory, machinery, or equipment. The maximum loan amount is $ 1,500,000. If you have been referred to this program you will be receiving an application package in the mail. For more information or help in completing this form, refer to your SBA application package or the SBA website at www.sba.gov.

5. Consumer Services: Counseling is available on consumer problems such as non-availability of products and services needed for reconstruction, price gouging, disreputable business concerns and practices, etc.

6. Crisis Counseling: Referral services and short-term intervention counseling is availablefor mental health problems caused or aggravated by the disaster.

302

7. Disaster Unemployment Assistance: This assistance provides weekly benefit paymentsto those out of work due to the disaster, including self-employed persons, farm and ranch owners, and others not covered under regular unemployment insurance programs.

8. Emergency Assistance: Emergency food, clothing, shelter, and medical assistance maybe provided to individuals and families having such needs as a result of the disaster. The American Red Cross (ARC), the Salvation Army, church groups, and other voluntary organizations can provide assistance.

9. Hazard Mitigation: You may receive funds to prevent future damage to your major utilities (i.e., furnace, water heater, electrical service) by either elevation or relocation of these utilities in your home.

10. Home and Personal Property Loan Program: Disaster loans through the Small Business Administration (SBA) are available to homeowners and renters for restoring or replacing disaster damaged real and personal property. The maximum real estate portion of the loan is $200,000 and for personal property is $40,000. The loan amount is limited to the amount of uninsured

11. SBA verified losses. If you have been referred to this program you will find more information in the "Application Summary" on the back of the Disaster Assistance Application Form. Insurance Information: Help and/or counseling is available on insurance problems and questions, which may include obtaining copies of lost policies, claims filing, expediting settlements, etc. If you have not been able to resolve your problem with your insurance company you may contact your State Insurance Commissioner. For flood insurance inquiries, contact the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).

12. Legal Services: Free or reduced legal services, including legal advice, counseling, andrepresentation may be provided to low-income disaster victims.

13. Social Security: Help is available from the Social Security Administration (SSA) in expediting delivery of checks delayed by the disaster and in applying for Social Security disability and survivor benefits.

14. Federal Tax Assistance: The federal tax laws allow the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to grant relief to taxpayers who are victims of a Presidentially declared disaster. This relief includes postponing tax deadlines to provide you with extra time to file and pay before you will be assessed any penalty, additional amount, or addition to the tax, or abating your interest for periods for which you received an extension of time to file tax returns and pay taxes because you were located in a Presidentially declared disaster area. Generally, qualified disaster relief payments are not required to be reported in gross income. Qualified disaster relief payments include payments received from any source topay reasonable and necessary personal, family, living, or funeral expenses incurred as a result of a Presidentially declared disaster. The IRS may allow casualty losses that were suffered on home, personal property, and household goods to be deducted on the income tax return if they are not covered by insurance. Taxpayers may also file an amended return to receive an early tax refund.

303

15. Other Tax Assistance: County tax assessors may provide information and assistance on possible property tax relief.

16. Veteran's Benefits: The Veterans Administration (VA) can expedite delivery of information about benefits, pensions, insurance settlements, and VA mortgage loans.

§105 General Services Administration

A. GSA was established on July 1, 1949, as a result of the Hoover Commission’s recommendation that consolidating administrative functions across Government into one organization would be more effective and economical for the Government and would avoid “senseless duplication, excess cost, and confusion in handling supplies, and providing space.” The mission of GSA is to deliver the best value in real estate, acquisition, and technology services to Government and the American people. The FY 2021 budget requests $537.1 million in discretionary budget authority for GSA, dis-serving the $152 million OPM discretionary appropriation, for a politely revised GSA discretionary budget request of $679 million FY 21. The request for the Federal Buildings Fund sets new obligational authority (NOA) at $10.4 billion, equal to the level of expected collections. This request includes new investments in GSA’s annual direct appropriations to support the transition of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to GSA. GSA’s new Quality Services Management Office (QSMO) will provide civilian HR transaction services and technology for compensation and benefits processing. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has directed human resources and employee management services, administers retirement benefits, manages healthcare and insurance programs, oversees merit-based and inclusive hiring into the civil service, and provides a secure employment process to attain this mission, for the past 40 years. OPM is responsible for the administration of the Federal Retirement Program covering over 2.7 million active employees and 2.5 million annuitants. are among the largest held by the United States Government. For FY 2021, the net assets combined are estimated to total approximately $1.1 trillion, receipts are estimated to total $182 billion, and outlays are estimated to total $161 billion. These trust funds will finance the retirement program for approximately 2.4 million Federal civilian employees, and provide retirement benefitsfor more than 2.8 million retirees and survivors, finance the health insurance for approximately 4.2 million employees, retirees, and their families, and provide life insurance coverage for an estimated 4.2 million employees and retirees.

1. Legislative proposals do not know their federal outlay for benefit stagnation and should not be increasing contributions or reducing COLA; simplified accounting and benefit growth are due under 31USC321a(5). OMB Excel Table 4.1 seems to know whatto do with the GSA row, but is continuing decades of overestimates, with tricky new federal resource information around page 95 solved around page 102 of the FY 21 GSA/OPM Budget. The new introductory combined budget table must eliminate confusion with OMB regarding reporting GSA negative subsidies and federal cost of OPM. Like the SBA, the GSA requires recognition by OMB of their discretionary appropriations as federal outlays. NOA profits should not be used for the OMB to declare negative subsidies. To make a good faith effort to improve communication with OMB, the GSA budget is advised to report to OMB any profits as undistributed offsettingreceipts, to reduce the federal deficit and be used to pay budgetary costs at the beginning of the new fiscal year. Historically, OMB has overestimated federal outlays for OPM at

304

roughly twice cost, yet budget cuts are attributed with causing an increase of Civil Service Disability and Retirement payments from $40 billion FY 17 to $75 billion FY 19.Now total federal outlays are more than the OMB overestimate. GSA has continued the OPM practice of concealing federal benefit payments from the introductory table at the end, but nearly completely lost them around page 95 as corrected around page 102 of the 517 page GSA/OPM Congressional Justification FY 21. GSA must prioritize the elimination of the OMB/OPM duplication overestimate by exactly estimating federal outlays for their new sub-agency and total GSA. The FY 21 GSA/OPM budget detail contains information regarding the federal share of OPM benefit payments, but it is absolutely necessary that those federal outlays, budget authority (total revenues) and trustfund balance, somehow be included in the introductory GSA/OPM table. The following is a short overview of a lengthy table.

B. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) administers the following Earned Benefits Trust Funds: FEHB – Federal Employees Health Benefits; FEGLI – Federal Employees’ Group Life Insurance; CSRDF – Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund; PSRHB – Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits; and FSAFEDS – The Federal Flexible Spending Account Program. The Employees Health Benefits Fund and the Retired Employees Health Benefits Fund are funded by the Government's share pursuant to the Retired Federal Employees Health Benefits Act of 1960 under 5USC§8901 and §8906. P.L. 96-427, Federal Employees’ Group Life Insurance Act of 1980, enacted October 10, 1980, requires that all employees under age 65 who retired on or after January 1, 1990, continue to make contributions toward their basic life insurance coverage (currently $0.33 per month for each $1,000 of coverage). As with active Federalemployees, the Government is required to contribute one-third of the cost of the premium(currently $0.17 per month for each $1,000 of coverage) for basic coverage for annuitants. The Payment to the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund (CSRDF) consists of an appropriation and a permanent indefinite authorization to pay the Government’s share of retirement costs of annuities authorized by the Act of May 29, 1944, and the Act of August 19, 1950 under 33USC§771 - §775, is paid out of the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund. as defined in the Civil Service Retirement Amendments of 1969 (P.L. 91-93) under 5USC§8348, the Federal Employees RetirementAct of 1986 (P.L. 99-335), and the Civil Service Retirement Spouse Equity Act of 1985 (P.L. 98-615). The payment is made directly from the General Fund of the U.S. Treasury into the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund and is in addition to appropriated funds that will be contributed from agency budgets.

1. An employee who completes 5 years of civilian service and has become disabled shall be retired on the employee’s own application or on application by the employee’s agency.Any employee shall be considered to be disabled only if the employee is found by the Office of Personnel Management to be unable, because of disease or injury, to render useful and efficient service in the employee’s position and is not qualified for

306

reassignment Disability retirement under 5USC§8337(a). 5USC§8336(c)(1) An employee who is separated from the service after becoming 50 years of age and completing 20 years of service as a law enforcement officer, firefighter, nuclear materialscourier, or customs and border protection officer, or any combination of such service totaling at least 20 years. 5USC§8336 (h)(1) A member of the Senior Executive Service who is removed from the Senior Executive Service for less than fully successful executive performance under 5USC§4303 after completing 25 years of service or after becoming 50 years of age and completing 20 years of service, is entitled to 40% to 80% of their current wages under 5USC§8339(f, g). Customarily when a significant number of employees are selected for release in a force-reduction employees must be given 60 written notice regarding their eligibility for re-employment under 5CFR§351.803. The Authority for Employment of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Senior Executive Service under 5USC§3151-3152 must be repealed by Congress. Furthermore the clause, 'or to a member of the Senior Executive Service or the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Drug Enforcement Administration Senior Executive Service' must be repealed from the end of 5USC§5301(b). Permanent disability under 5USC§3504 is needed to prevent these idiotsand ICE from being re-employed by the United States Armed Forces, Civil or Foreign Service, nor should their disability retirement be annually reviewed under 5USC§8337(c).

§106 National Aeronautics and Space Administration

A. National Aeronautics and Space Act was signed into law on July 29, 1958. The NASA Budget request for $25.3 billion FY 21 constitutes a nearly 12 percent increase over FY 20. Hyperinflation continues through the projection until FY25 when it goes down. Although they have been compensated for the FY18 budget cut, to end their budget worries, NASA must develop more reasonable growth expectations of 3%, taking into consideration the availability of support from the US Air Force Space Command andWhite House National Space Council. Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) determined to be excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2). The FY 2021 Budget and out-years will enable the Nation to stay on the path to landing the first woman and the next man on the surface of the Moon in 2024 and build a sustainable lunar presence. It lays the foundations to eventually send human missions to Mars. The Budget directs more than $3 billion towarddevelopment of a human landing system, for the first time since the Apollo Program. This Budget's full support of the Space Launch System rocket, Orion spacecraft, the Gateway, and all systems, technologies, and science needed for the Artemis Program willsafely deliver us to the lunar surface, Mars, and beyond.

B. The termination of education funding, changed to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), is insignificant and justified in Education Department computer fraud. The International Space Station (ISS) is a cornerstone of the integrated approach to deep space and US funding should be sustained, although the new operating paradigm from FY 19 proposed to end direct Federal funding for the ISS in 2025, this must overturned to protect peaceful international use of outer space. Exec. Order No. 13803, 82 Fed. Reg. 31429 of July 7, 2017 $1,965,000 provided for necessary expenses of the National Space Council in carrying out the purposes of title V of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Authorization Act of 1989 under 51USC§20111. 20 December 2019, the President and Congress established the U.S. Space Force. The Active Duty Space Force military will organize, train, and equip in order to protect U.S. and allied interests in space and to provide space capabilities to the joint force. The FY

308

2021 Space Force budget is approximately $15.4 billion. This funding is a critical first step to combat emerging space threats and requirements and transitioning military space operations from combat support to warfighting. It protects and defends highly-capable satellite systems, develops a broad range of defensive and offensive options, fielding robust and resilient space systems and capabilities to deceive and confuse our adversaries. The transfer includes: space-related Weapon Systems and Operations, Weapon System Sustainment/Central Asset Management, Major Command (MAJCOM) Support, Education and Training, Space-Related Air Force Elements, and Space-Related Headquarters. The US Air Force must take care that they pay for space command, despite their illusory transfer, and defense-wide deception of the Green Book, it is very important that all costs of the many military commands are born by the three executive military departments - Air Force, Army and Navy under 10USC§111. US Space Command has a duty to support NASA. The Air Force has a duty to correct their error that they do not fund US Space Command, to ensure that continued solvency of the Department of Defense although they actively rebel against, don’t understand or declare the undistributed offsetting receipts that ensure their solvency in event of war. US Space Command has a duty to support the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in pursuit of landing men and women on the Moon and Mars and stable 3% inflation, for both Departments.

§107 National Science Foundation

A. The National Science Foundation (NSF) Act was signed on May 10, 1950 with the mission: “To promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense...” it is codified under 42USC§1861-§1875. Although inflation may be slightly in excess of 3% inflation, a supplemental appropriation under 31USC§1515 is needed for NSF to ensure non-repetition of budget cuts under 18USC§246 and compensate for a fifth year of threatened budget cuts, and avoid persecuting research and related activities for more than 42 consecutive months (Revelation 13:10). The agreement is that in the future NSF funding will increase 2.5% annually. NSF is the only federal agency that funds basic non-biomedical research and education across all fields of S&E and at all levels of education. NSF funds advanced instrumentation and facilities, Arctic and Antarctic research and operations, cooperative research partnerships between universities and industry, and U.S. participation in international scientific efforts.

B. 93% of appropriated funds directly support research and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, 78% of it at the Nation’s colleges and universities, 14% to private industry and 8% other. A small number of awards fund research in collaboration with other countries, which adds value to the U.S. scientific enterprise and maintains U.S. leadership in the global scientific enterprise. NSF’s annual budget represents 27% of the total federal budget for basic research conducted at U.S. colleges and universities, and this share increases to approximately 60% when medical

310

research supported by the National Institutes of Health is excluded. In many science and engineering fields NSF is the primary source of federal academic support. NSF has supported 231 Nobel Laureates since its inception.

§108 Small Business Administration

A. The Small Business Administration (SBA) was created in the Small Business Act of July 30, 1953. Small businesses account for more than 56 million jobs and create two outof three net new private sector jobs in the U.S. each year. More than half of all Americanseither work for or own a small business. SBA’s total budget request for FY 2021 is $819 million in new budget authority. Of this amount, $288 million is for salaries and expensesand $168 million is for entrepreneurial development programs. The SBA requests $168 million for administering loans to survivors of disasters. The SBA is poorly accounted for by the Treasury and OMB who insist that the program produces them negative subsidies, although the truth of the matter is that the Treasury is clearly requested by the SBA congressional budget justification, without any accounting errors whatsoever, for $819 million, plus $9.1 million for the Office of Advocacy, for a total of $828.1 million FY 21. Advocacy is believed to be the only genuine Independent Agency studied by OMB since FY 12 historical revision, and should be reconsolidated in the SBA budget.

1. In addition the US Congress on April 23 passed the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act Public Law No: 116-139, expanding funding for the existing Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) created by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act or the Act) (Pub. L. 116-136) of March 27, 2020.Sec. 101 of the Enhancement Act include provided a $310 billion increase in PPPfunding, bringing the total authorized amount to $659 - $670 billion under section 7(a) of the Small Business Act under 15USC§636(a) plus other SBA, Commerce and Treasury programs administrating the Enhancement Act. Therefore, total SBA outlays are estimated to be $670,828 billion FY 21 as lesson to the Treasury that SBA costs federal outlays. The PPP loan forgiveness is believed to be excessively expensive to the federal government. PPP is not investment grade and t-bonds, in such excess of 3% of GDP deficit, threaten massive withdrawal from the stock exchange, with the potential to turn a pandemic recession into an economic depression. Next economic depression, the right thing for Congress to do is to authorize a real payroll loan guarantee program. To entertain creditors, who believe an expensive dollar benefits financial institutions at the expense of international trade, it is proposed that the US dollar may need to be devaluatedto print-out the excessive $1 trillion cost of PPP and unemployment compensation, and eliminate the federal deficit, and avoid economic depression, without the use of t-bonds .

B. The Office of Advocacy (Advocacy) is an independent office within the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). Advocacy has its own statutory charter, Title II of PublicLaw 94-305 as amended at 15USC§634a et seq.), originally enacted in 1976. Advocacy works to reduce the burdens that Federal regulations and other policies impose on small entities and provides vital small business research for the use of policymakers and other stakeholders. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) of 1980 as amended at 5USC§601 et seq.). Public Law 111-240, the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, further amended Advocacy’s statutory authority to require that each budget submitted by the President shall include a separate statement of the amount of appropriations requested for Advocacy, and that these funds be designated in a separate Treasury account. The Act also requires SBA to provide Advocacy with office space, equipment, an operating budget, and communications support, including the maintenance of such equipment and facilities (15USC§634g(b)). Before FY 2012, Advocacy was fully integrated within SBA’s Executive Direction budget. For FY 2021, the Office of Advocacy requests $9.19 million in new budget authority for its direct expenses, $70,000 more than the amount enacted in FY 2020.

1. The Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (Title II of P.L. 104-121, as amended) requires three agencies (the Environmental Protection Agency, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) to take special steps to ensure that the views and needs of small entities are considered early in the process of drafting rules that could have significant effects. The Regulatory Flexibility Act, first enacted in 1980 and strengthened in 1996 and 2010, requires most federal regulatory agencies to consider the effects of planned regulatory actions on small entities, and to take steps to minimize them when possible, including theconsideration of alternatives for rules with significant impacts and the convening of SBREFA panels with special outreach provisions for certain agencies. Failure to comply with RFA requirements can result in litigation. Section 610 of the Regulatory FlexibilityAct requires agencies to review existing regulations periodically to determine whether they are still justifiable based on a number of factors. President Trump has signed Executive Order 13771 (Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs; January30, 2017) and Executive Order 13777 (Enforcing the Regulatory Reform Agenda; February 24, 2017) which require Federal agencies to take more aggressive steps to alleviate unnecessary regulatory burdens. The new executive orders are intended to work in tandem with and strengthen the earlier Executive Orders 12866 and 13563, which are both mentioned by name in Executive Order 13777.

2. The SBA Inspector General annually reports on the most serious management and performance challenges that pose significant risks to the programs and activities that are particularly vulnerable to fraud, waste, error, mismanagement, or inefficiencies. SBA complied with Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2010 using guidelines outlined in the Office of Management and Budget Memorandum M-15-02, Appendix C to Circular No. A-123, Requirements for Effective Estimation and Remediation of Improper Payments. As of September 30, 2019, OIG had 48 open cases involving disaster loans with potential dollar losses of nearly $9.0 million. From FY 2006through FY 2019, SBA OIG, in conjunction with other law enforcement agencies, produced 152 arrests, 165 indictments/ informations, and 163 convictions related to wrongdoing in SBA’s Disaster Loan Program. As of September 30, 2019, these investigations have resulted in over $26.5 million in court-ordered restitution and related recoveries. In addition, $7.2 million in loans was denied to potentially fraudulent borrowers through FY 2019. Specific to Hurricane Sandy, in response to the potential for fraud, OIG joined other law enforcement organizations in support of the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office Sandy Fraud Task Force. From FY 2014 through FY 2019, OIG, in conjunction with other law enforcement agencies, produced 61 indictments/informations and 47 convictions related to wrongdoing in SBA’s Disaster Loan Program for Hurricane Sandy. The first OIG Sandy investigation was opened in May 2013. Subsequently, OIG has had 87 Sandy investigations, totaling nearly $15.0 million in potential fraud. As of September 30, 2019, OIG had 17 Sandy cases open with potential fraud totaling nearly $3.9 million. The 2018 California Wildfires were costly but Pacific Gas and Electric (PGE) went bankrupt due to arson claims. Now it is SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program who is a fraud. Fraud prosecutions are notoriously hypocritic form of deprivation of relief benefits under 18USC§246. Compensation should lead more logically to convictions for arson, and terrorism, to do disasters justice.

3. The SBA must stop serving as a co-lead for the Presidential Cross-Agency Priority Goal for leveraging data as a strategic asset and fully finance their information technology. The Federal Government needs a robust, integrated approach to stop using data to deliver on its robbery mission, serve customers, and steward resources, in a lawfuland non-experimental fashion, while respecting privacy and confidentiality. The SBA’s headquarters lease expires in November 2020, and GSA will finalize its cost-benefit analysis to determine the most cost-effective option. Also, per Executive Order 13327, the Federal Real Property Management Act of 2016 and OMB Memo M-18-21, federal agencies must reduce the footprint of the real property portfolio. OMB Memo M-17-22 (“Comprehensive Plan for Reforming the Federal Government and Reducing the Federal Civilian Workforce”). In FY 2020, the SBA will continue to implement SBA Insights, Technology Business Management, and assess and consolidate duplicative capabilities, such as IT service desks. The SBA will consolidate IT Service Desks, transition the Network Operations Center to a new customer-driven contract, and complete the migration to the Enterprise Infrastructure Solution (EIS). The Agency involves all stakeholders in mission alignment, sets priorities for technology spending, and ensures integration with enterprise-wide processes. The SBA identifies cost savings and uses its investment oversight framework to demonstrate accountability, business value creation, and delivery on business outcomes. The SBA identified IT acquisition cost savings opportunities with the full implementation of FITARA.

C. The 7(a) Loan Program is the Federal Government’s primary small business loan program, assisting small businesses with financing when they are unable to access credit elsewhere. The SBA guarantees a portion of each loan (ranging from 50 to 90 percent) that a participating lender makes to an eligible small business. Maintaining a high volumeof active lenders from one fiscal year to the next creates a consistent pipeline of SBA loans for small businesses. The 7(a) Loan Program offers loans ranging from the Community Advantage Pilot Program (loans of $250,000 or less), SBA Express (loan up to $350,000) and to the International Trade Loan Program (loans up to $5 million). The SBA did not receive a credit subsidy appropriation for the 7(a) Loan Program, relying on fees to support 51,907 7(a) loans totaling $23.2 billion. Improvements in technology and processes since FY 2017 have sustained significant efficiency gains at the SBA loan processing centers. The time to process a 7(a) non-delegated loan greater than $350,000 decreased from 15 days to 9 days (40 percent efficiency gain) and for loans under $350,000, from 6 to 2 days (67 percent efficiency gain). To support the Agency Priority Goal for FY 2019, the SBA supported microloans, 7(a) loans, and 504 loans in rural areasand urban, HUBZone communities. The SBA met 77 percent of its Priority Goal target by approving 20,527 loans totaling $9.4 billion in the aforementioned areas. With a strong economy, demand for SBA lending has decreased as traditional credit markets have expanded. The 8(a) Business Development program offers a broad scope of assistance to firms that are owned and controlled at least 51 percent by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals. The SBA approved 58,006 7(a) and 504 loans, through $28.1 billion in lending to small businesses through 1,708 7(a) lenders and 212 Certified Development Companies (CDCs) in FY 2019.

2. 504 Certified Development Company Loan Program statutorily mandates job creation, community development, or public policy goals such as manufacturing, to support economic development. the total maximum amount in 504 Loans that each small business (and its affiliates) may borrow is $5 million (including the 504 Debt Refinancing Program loans). However, 504 loans for small manufacturers or certain energy-related projects can be as much as $5.5 million per project with the total amount for the latter capped at $16.5 million for each small business concern, including its affiliates. Loan maturities can be set for 10, 20, or 25 years. The SBA approved 6,099 504 loans for nearly $5.0 billion FY 19. Through the 25-year debenture launched in FY 2018, the SBA increased the number of 504 loans. SBA will assist 6,200 small businesses each year through the 504 Loan Program. For FY 2021, the SBA requests no credit subsidy appropriation for the 504 Program and proposes an administrative fee to help offset a portion of the appropriated funds to run the 504 Program. The SBA will implement a subsidy fee structure based on current law until an appropriations act is enacted.

3. Of the SBIC Program requested lending level of $4 billion dollars, the administrative fee will be set at $0.33 per every hundred dollars approved for lending. The SBA recovered an estimated $86.2 million, net of write-offs totaling $50.3 million and expenses, from SBICs transferred to liquidation. Additionally, the SBIC Program transferred $179.9 million in debenture leverage to liquidation. Included in the transfer was $147.2 million associated with a single debenture SBIC, which was the largest debenture SBIC transfer in the history of the SBIC Program. The SBA entered 79 SBICs into liquidation with associated assets of $498.4 million, and 65 of these SBICs had

316

$263.2 million in assets in liquidation for more than 3 years. SBIC Program’s losses associated with participating securities, are at approximately $2.6 billion.

4. In the United States, small businesses comprise 97 percent of U.S. exporters and account for a third of total U.S. export value. In FY 2019, the SBA supported $974 million in small business export sales through its STEP Grant Program, which helped small businesses participate in more export promotion activities, such as international trade shows and trade missions. Similarly, the SBA financed $2.27 billion in small business export sales through its international trade finance programs. The Agency also trained 18,302 small businesses and lenders and hosted the 12th Annual SBA Export Lenders Roundtable in Washington, DC. Today, 96 percent of all consumers—and over three-quarters of the world's purchasing power— exist outside the United States. The growth in the middle class globally is showing rapid increases in purchasing power, yet only about 1 percent of America’s small businesses are selling to them. The SBA offers specific programs—Export Express, Export Working Capital and International Trade Loans—to provide financing solutions to small businesses that want to reach the global market. Through counseling and training assistance provided through U.S. Export Assistance Centers and State Trade Expansion Promotion grants, the SBA provides support through various channels to ensure that small businesses have access to exportingmarkets.

5. In FY 2018, the Federal Government awarded nearly $121 billion in federal contracting dollars to small businesses, which is $16 billion or 15 percent more than FY 2017. Additionally, the SBA manages two small business certification programs—the 8(a) Business Development (BD) Program and the HUBZone Program. Through the 8(a)Business Development Program, the SBA limits competition for certain contracts to SBA-certified small businesses owned by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals or entities. Through the 7(j) Management and Technical Assistance Program,the SBA provides eligible disadvantaged small businesses with assistance such as training, executive education, and one-to-many consulting in a wide range of business activities, including marketing, accounting, opportunity development and capture, contract management, compliance, and financial analysis. The HUBZone Program promotes job growth, capital investment, and economic development in economically distressed areas designated as HUBZones by providing contracting assistance to small businesses located in these areas through federal procurement set-asides. HUBZone-certified businesses also receive a 10-percent price evaluation preference in full and open contract competitions. The SBA, through the 7(j) and 8(a) Programs, assisted 8,032 and 7,958 small businesses, respectively in FY 2019. The All Small Mentor-Protégé Programaims to help small businesses learn from larger, experienced government contractors to help small businesses develop and enter federal contracting.

6. The SBA’s veteran’s business outreach programs continued to grow in partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DOD) Transition Assistance Program (TAP), andBoots to Business (B2B) entrepreneurship training supported nearly 16,528 veterans, service members, and military spouses. The SBA, through the SBDC Program, will continue to support more than 214,000 entrepreneurs who help create and retain more than 772,000 jobs. The program will help more than 14,000 entrepreneurs start new businesses and will assist clients to obtain more than $5.0 billion in capital annually for their businesses. The Women’s Business Center (WBC) Program funds more than 100

317

nonprofit organizations that provide quality advising and training services primarily to women entrepreneurs, many of whom are socially and economically disadvantaged. Participating organizations must match the federal funding with 1 non-federal dollar for every 2 federal dollars during the first 2 years, and on a one-to-one basis thereafter. Women’s Business Centers, advised and trained over 64,000 entrepreneurs FY 19 and this is expected to grow to 73,000 FY 20 and FY 21.

7. The SBA approved 42,375 disaster loans for a total of more than $2.2 billion, which included activity from Hurricanes Florence and Michael. The FY 2019 total includes 38,492 home disaster loans for a total of $1.8 billion and 3,883 business disaster loans fora total of $391.8 million. The 2018 wildfire season was also the deadliest and most destructive wildfire season recorded in California. The Woolsey Fire and Camp Fire weredeclared under one disaster declaration on November 12, 2018 for Butte county in Northern California, and Ventura and Los Angeles in Southern California. The SBA approved 3,844 disaster loans for a total of $427.5 million for the 2018 California Wildfires. The SBA closed 99 percent of loans with initial disbursements within 5 days of SBA receiving the signed loan closing documents, and 93 percent of the loans were processed within standard in FY 2019. The SBA approved 42,375 disaster loans for over $2.2 billion following the hurricane season. The average processing time was 8 days for home loans and 12 days for business loans.

D. The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is publishing an interim final rule (theInitial Rule) announcing the implementation of sections 1102 and 1106 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act or the Act). Section 1102 of the Act temporarily adds a new program, titled the “Paycheck Protection Program,” to the SBA's 7(a) Loan Program. Section 1106 of the Act provides for forgiveness of up to the full principal amount of qualifying loans guaranteed under the Paycheck Protection Program. The Paycheck Protection Program and loan forgiveness are intended to provide economic relief to small businesses nationwide adversely impacted by the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). This interim final rule applies to applications submitted under the Paycheck Protection Program through June 30, 2020, or until funds made available for this purpose are exhausted.

1. On March 13, 2020, President Trump declared the ongoing Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant an emergency declaration for all States, territories, and the District of Columbia. On March 27, 2020, the President signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act or the Act) (Pub. L. 116-136) to provide emergency assistance and health care response for individuals, families, and businesses affected by the coronavirus pandemic. The Small Business Administration (SBA) received funding and authority through the Act to modify existing loan programs and establish a new loan program to assist small businesses nationwide adversely impacted by the COVID-19 emergency.Section 1102 of the Act temporarily permits SBA to guarantee 100 percent of 7(a) loans under a new program titled the “Paycheck Protection Program.” Section 1106 of the Act provides for forgiveness of up to the full principal amount of qualifying loans guaranteed under the Paycheck Protection Program. On April 2, 2020, SBA issued an interim final rule (the Initial Rule) announcing the implementation of sections 1102 and 1106 of the Act.

318

2. The Paycheck Protection Program provides small businesses with funds to pay up to 8 weeks of payroll costs including benefits. Funds can also be used to pay interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities. Funds are provided in the form of loans that will be fully forgiven when used for payroll costs, interest on mortgages, rent, and utilities (due to likely high subscription, at least 75% of the forgiven amount must have been used for payroll). Loan payments will also be deferred for six months. No collateral or personal guarantees are required. Neither the government nor lenders will charge small businesses any fees. The US Congress on April 23 passed the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act Public Law No: 116-139,expanded funding for the existing Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). Sec. 101 of the Enhancement Act includeprovided a $310 billion increase in PPP funding, bringing the total authorized amountto $659 - $670 billion under section 7(a) of the Small Business Act under 15USC§636(a) plus other SBA, Commerce and Treasury programs administrating the Enhancement Act. There is appropriated, out of amounts in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2020, $670 billion to remain available until September 30, 2021. The amounts provided under this division are designated as an emergency requirement pursuant to section 4(g) of the Statutory Pay-As-You-Go Act of 2010 under 2USC§933(g).

§109 Postal Service

A. The United States Postal Service, also known as the Post Office, U.S. Mail, or Postal Service, often abbreviated as USPS, is an independent agency of the United States federalgovernment responsible for providing postal service in the United States. Benjamin Franklin was appointed our first Postmaster General in 1775. The Postal Reorganization Act of 1970, Public Law 91–375, converted the Post Office Department into the U.S. Postal Service (Postal Service), an independent establishment within the executive branch. The Postal Service commenced operations July 1, 1971. This agency is charged with providing patrons with reliable mail service at reasonable rates and fees. The Postal Regulatory Commission is an independent agency that has exercised regulatory oversightover the U.S. Postal Service since its creation by the Postal Reorganization Act of 1970. The Postal Service is governed by an 11-member Board of Governors, including nine Governors appointed by the President, a Postmaster General who is selected by the Governors, and a Deputy Postmaster General who is selected by the Governors and the Postmaster General. The USPS is the third largest employer in the nation after the federal government and Walmart. The USPS is the operator of the largest civilian vehicle fleet in the world. On a typical day, more than 600,000 men and women of the United States Postal Service ensure that hundreds of millions of pieces of mail are delivered to 156 million delivery points, including more than 43 million rural businesses and residences across the country.

1. The USPS has not directly received taxpayer-dollars since the early 1980s. Since 1971, there have been several Postal reforms. Notably, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989 (P.L. 101–239) moved the Postal Service "off-budget" so that, beginning in 1990, the receipts and disbursements of the Fund are not considered within the on-budget net spending totals, although they ostensibly included within the unified spending and deficit totals, but are not and should not be. More recently, the OPMowes the Postal Service and employees compensation for the disastrous 2006 Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (P.L. 109–435) that created the Postal Service

319

Retiree Health Benefits Fund to put the Postal Service on a path that fully funds its substantial retiree (annuitant) health benefits liabilities. Since the Act's passage in 2006, the Postal Service contributed over $50 billion to the Retiree Health Benefits Fund but has defaulted on $34 billion in total required payments since FY 2012. Beginning in 2017, the Act also requires the Postal Service to begin a 27-year amortization to retire its unfunded liability under CSRS by paying for “actuarial costs of the unfunded liability for post-retirement health costs of current employees” = zero benefits. OPM is obligated to reimburse the Postal Service Retiree Health Fund >$55.9 USPS debt FY 17. The USPS employed 617,254 workers (as of February 2015) and operated 211,264 vehicles in 2014.USPS had a good year FY 16. FY2016 had total revenue of $71.5 billion and total expenses of $77.1 billion, resulting in a net loss of $5.6 billion, nearly exactly equal to the legal mandate in the Postal Service Retiree Health Benefits Fund (PSRHBF) pre-funding expense.

B. On November 6, 2013 the New York Times reported; Last year, the Postal Service’s operating revenue was $65 billion, but its operating expenses were $81 billion = $16 billion deficit in 2012. A net loss of $41 billion is reported between 2007-12. The post office has seen revenue for first-class mail — the agency’s cash cow — decline by $2.4 billion. It has defaulted on three annual $5.5 billion payments into a health care fund for its future retirees. It has also exhausted its $15 billion borrowing limit from the Treasury Department. It has defaulted on three annual $5.5 billion payments into a health care fundfor its future retirees. It has also exhausted its $15 billion borrowing limit from the Treasury Department. On November 15, 2013 the L.A. Time wrote; The USPS reported a $5 billion loss FY2013. It's the seventh-straight yearly net loss. Since 2006, the agencyhas cut its expenses by $15 billion annually, but first-class mail volume has continued to drop. While package and standard mail volumes increased, the agency's most profitable product, first-class mail, declined by 2.8 billion pieces. The USPS FY 2016 Annual report to Congress: FY2016 Annual Performance Report and FY2017 Performance Plan FY2016 Comprehensive Statement on Postal Operations declares an incurable $5.5 billion deficit. This report satisfies the public reporting requirements contained under 39USC§2401(e), § 2402, §2803 and §2804, along with the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA) of 2006 Section 3652. The Postal Service states they had a remarkable 2016, delivering over 154 billion pieces of mail, growing revenue to $71.5 billion in FY16—a 3.7 percent revenue increase, these results helped achieve controllableincome of $610 million, excluding the impact of a $5.8 billion mandated Retiree Health Benefits prepayment, the Postal Service would have recorded net income for the year. USPS must continue to produce an annual fiscal year report to congress, every year.

1. The U.S. Postal Service reported its losses more than doubled to $4.5 billion in the quarter ending in March and warned the worker compensation for COVID-19 could severely hurt its finances over the next 18 months. The agency said quarterly revenues rose $348 million to $17.8 billion. But workers compensation costs rose 288 percent to $2.99 billion last quarter from $771 million for the same quarter last year, $12 billion, about four times the normal annual rate, if the pandemic is not officially treated just after six months since the start of the pandemic. USPS analysis is negligent to attribute the rise in worker compensation costs to interest rates rather than the tripling of employees receiving worker compensation due to the added burden of the untreated coronavirus

pandemic. The Social Security Administration (SSA) has been implicated in routinely exposing disability applicants and postal workers to monoclonal antibody to the spine contaminated disability questionnaires that become infected with methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The Courts and Congress have been implicated in routinely mailing out speed (ephedrine) contaminated paper. In general, postal revenues are high. Provided Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) and Epsom salt are prescribed, worker compensation costs should decline to 2019 annual levels of $3 billion FY 21 and be only about $777 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, cutting 2020 losses, to be afforded by the CARES Act authorized the Treasury Department to lend the Postal Service up to $10 billion. To reduce worker compensation costs it is essential that lay USPS postmasters and worker compensation physicians alike prescribe USPS employees Epsom salt bath to treat painful conditions caused by methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and a dab of Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) on the nose and/or chest to treat coronavirus and mold allergies.

2. USPS follows the strategies and measures recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and public health departments. Ensuring millions of face coverings, including masks, gloves and cleaning and sanitizing products are available anddistributed to more than 30,000 locations every day. Requiring public facing employees and non-public facing Postal Service employees wear face coverings while at work, whenproper social distancing of six feet cannot be achieved or maintained. USPS products andpackages may require more time to be delivered due to limited transportation availability as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 impacts. Priority Mail's two-day and three-day service commitments will be extended to three days and four days, respectively. Priority Mail Express service, which guarantees overnight service, and one-day service commitments for Priority Mail will not change. There is no impact to First-Class letters and flats. However, First-Class Package Service® two and three day service commitments will be extended to three and four days respectively. USPS and its mail order companies need Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP).

3. Coincidental with the COVID-19 pandemic and Presidential election fraud regarding mail-in-ballots, the US Postmaster-General has peculiarly eliminated overtime causing anenormous labor shortage. In response to reports of unprecedented backlogs and delays inthe delivery of mail reforms have been postponed. Chicks and crickets transported in boxes with air-holes were reported to have died. Strangely it is reported that locks were put on certain mail-sorting machines to prevent them from being used to deliver the mail. The termination of overtime and lockdown of certain mail-sorting machines is believed tobe product of Presidential mail-in-ballot fraud. Delays in mail delivery time threaten to prevent votes from arriving to be counted on or before Election Day. The pandemic has also boosted interest in expanding options to vote by mail rather than crowding into polling places, making it more important that funding extends past November for the presidential election. The postmaster general was extremely wrong to curtail overtime while tens of thousands of COVID-19 infected were out of work and receiving worker compensation. Locking the mail sorting machines seems to be a deliberate attempt to sabotage the postal system to defraud voters by delaying mail-in-votes. The mail sorting machines and other equipment should operational and unobstructed. The CARES Act provided the USPS with up to $10 billion loan. The USPS must get into debt to pay for overtime. The USPS must reduce worker compensation and overtime costs of sick leave

by swiftly treating coronavirus with Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint(HELP) and methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with Epsom salt bath. The up to $10 billion USPS loan and approximately $250 billion state unemployment compensation program loans may be forgiven if the dollar is sufficiently devaluated to accommodate excessive state and postal spending to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic by October, 2020 pursuant to the Marshal Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421 and 22USC§5301 et seq.

Article 4 Social Security

§110 Social Security Administration

A. The Economic Security Act (H. R. 7260), first enacted August 14, 1935 and subsequently amended numerous times, is compiled as the Social Security Act in 21 Titles, §1-§2110 and codified at Title 42 of the United States Code Chapter 7 Subchapters I-XXI §301-§1397jj. Although not required for legal purposes, reference to social security law should include both the Act and the Statute for neutral citation. The intention of the original Economic Security Act P.L. 74-271 was “to provide for the general welfare by establishing a system of Federal old-age benefits, and by enabling the several States to make more adequate provision for aged persons, blind persons, dependent and crippled children, maternal and child welfare, public health, and the administration of their unemployment compensation laws; to establish a Social Security Board; to raise revenue; and for other purposes”. The Economic Security Act was part ofthe Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s Second New Deal in response to the economic hardshipsof the Great Depression. The Social Security Program that was established was meant to provide a safety net for the nation’s vulnerable population. Unlike many of the other programs of the New Deal that were temporary in nature, or subsequently abolished, Social Security was built to last. Social Security has become a cornerstone of democracy,a means of efficiently redistributing income from the rich to poor, a system of government that provides people with a subsistence income. Social security has become the largest, most important and most loved social program in modern governments.

1. The Social Security Act has undergone four major amendments. The four most significant amendments to the Social Security Act have been the creation of a disability insurance program in the Amendments of 1956, P.L. 86-778 of 1960 that removed the age requirements for disability insurance, the creation of a national medical insurance program in P.L. 89-97 signed on July 30, 1965 and Public Law 92-603 of 1972 that enacted the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Program to assist "individuals who haveattained age 65 or are blind or disabled" by setting a guaranteed minimum income level for such persons. SSI is currently paid for the by General Fund, not OASDI. SSI is administrated and accounted for by the Social Security Administration (SSA) that became an independent agency in 1996. Since 1994 the Hospital Insurance (HI) tax has no limit on taxable income, beginning in 2013, workers pay an additional 0.9% of their earnings above $200,000 (individual) or $250,000 (joint tax return). The way forward is to close the tax loophole for the rich and state employees by repealing Sec. 230 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§430 and amending it to: 'Supplemental Security Income Trust Fund' 'The tax loophole for the rich and state employees is closed to pay forworkers disabled by the COVID-19 pandemic and create in the Treasury an SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2020 and income floor to end all poverty by 2030.'

323

B. A Social Security Board was responsible for administration of the original Social Security Act except for parts 1, 2, 3, and 5 of Title V (which were administered by the Children's Bureau, then in the Department of Labor); part 4 of Title V which increased the appropriations authorized for carrying out the Act of June 2, 1920 and Title VI which authorized grants to the States for public health work. The Social Security Board was transferred to the Federal Security Agency by Reorganization Plan No. 1 of 1939 and the Board's functions were to be carried on under the direction and supervision of the FederalSecurity Administrator. Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1946 transferred the functions of the Children's Bureau and the functions of the Secretary of Labor under Title V of the Act to the Federal Security Administrator and the Board was abolished. The Bureau of Employment Security, with its unemployment compensation and employment service function, was transferred from the Federal Security Agency to the Department of Labor by Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1949. The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare was established by Reorganization Plan No. 1 of 1953 with a Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare as the head of the Department. All functions of the Federal Security Agency, which was abolished, were transferred to the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. The functions of the Federal Security Administrator were transferred to the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare. The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare was re-designated the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare was re-designated the Secretary of Health and Human Services by P.L. 96-88, §509, approved October 17, 1979. The Department of Health and Human Services re-designation was effective May 4, 1980 (45 Federal Register 29642; May 5, 1980). The Department of Education which was established by P.L. 96–88 was activated May 4, 1980 (Executive Order 12212 of May 2, 1980; 45 Federal Register 29557; May 5, 1980). Effective March 31, 1995, the Social Security Administration was re-established as an independent agency, with a Commissioner responsible for the exercise of all powers and duties of the Administration by P.L. 103-296, §101, approved August 15, 1994.

1. SSA is headed by a Commissioner of Social Security, who employs a deputy commissioner and Inspector General to oversee, in co-operation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the administrative programs of SSA and may create and abolish such operations as they see fit under Sec. 702 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§902. SSA receives counsel from the President’s Advisory Board. In November 2001 a law was passed to give the Commissioner of Social Security a set term of 6 years. Previously, in nature, without a law dictating a arbitrary term limit, the average term was less than two years after the founder Arthur J. Altmeyer served six years from July 16, 1946-April 10, 1953 or the longest serving commissioner Robert M. Ball, served nearly nine years from April 17, 1962 to March 17, 1973. Most Commissioners served only a few months. Congress is recommended to amend the 6 year term of the Commissioner to 2 years under Sec. 702 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§902(a)(3).

2. It is the duty of the Board of Trustees composed of the Commissioner of Social Security, the Secretary of the Treasury, the Secretary of Labor, and the Secretary of Health and Human Services pursuant to Sec. 201(c) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(c) to - a. Hold the Trust Funds; b. Report to the Congress not later than the first day of April of each year on the operation and status of the Trust Funds during the preceding fiscal year and on their expected operation and status during the next ensuing five fiscal years; c. Report immediately to the Congress whenever the Board of Trustees is of the opinion that the amount of either of the Trust Funds is unduly small; d. Recommend improvements in administrative procedures and policies designed to effectuate the proper coordination of the old-age and survivors insurance and Federal-State unemployment compensation program; and e. Review the general policies followed in managing the Trust Funds, and recommend changes in such policies, including necessary changes in the provisions of the law which govern the way in which the Trust Funds are to be managed.

3. Every year more than 70,000 SSA employees process more than 5 million claims for benefits. They issue 16 million new and replacement Social Security number (SSN) cards. They process 265 million earnings items to maintain workers’ life-long earnings records. They handle approximately 54 million phone calls to SSA’s 800-number. They issue 136 million Social Security Statements to advise workers how much they have contributed to Social Security and provide estimates of future benefits online. Social Security Matters blog provides for online feedback. OASDI takes pride in their low administrative costs less than 1%, +/-0.6%, while SSI administrative costs run about 7% of program costs. The contractual cost of processing applications from the SSI tax is expected to be shared with elementary and secondary schools. To process the applications of COVID-19 disabled workers, pay state vocational agencies to operate the Ticket to Work Program and end the administrative persecution of the number of the beast of the OASDI program in excess of 42 months, 2020 OASDI administrative costs are increased from $6.6 billion to $7.0 billion (Revelation 13:10).

C. Social Security benefits are based on a formula that essentially averages earnings over a worker’s life. Unfortunately, women generally have lower wages and are also more likely than men to adjust their work lives to the demands of children, home, and older relatives needing care. As a result, women have more years of very low or no earnings, greatly reducing their potential Social Security benefits. The maximum monthly benefit for people first retiring at full retirement age (67) is $37,327 in 2020. Workers covered by Social Security (virtually all workers other than about 25 percent of state and local government employees (contribute 6.2 percent of their earnings (with an equal employer match) up to a maximum taxable ceiling $137,700 in 2020) into two trust funds: the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund and the Disability Insurance Trust Fund, or whatis more conveniently called the combined OASDI Trust Fund. Self-employed workers make contributions to those made by regular employees and their employers. To be whatthe Social Security Administration calls “fully” or permanently” insured, workers must have contributed to Social Security for forty “quarter of coverage”. In 2020, one credit isgiven for contributions made on each $1,420 of earnings anytime in the calendar year, up to a maximum of four quarters or credits in any calendar year, up to a maximum of four quarters or credits in any calendar year. Because workers can become disabled or die at any time, workers under age 31 may become insured for those benefits with fewer than forty quarters, as few as six quarters out of the last three years for the youngest workers. Disability insurance applicants must meet an additional requirement of recency of work usually twenty out of the last forty quarters, except that in the case of workers under age 31, it may be as little as six quarters out of the last three years. Monthly benefits vary according to such factors as type of benefit, prior contributions, age when benefits begin, and the number of people receiving benefits in a household. Certain family members may also qualify for benefits. Benefits may be paid to a: spouse, divorced spouse, children, disabled child, and/or adult child disabled before age 22. If any qualified familymembers apply for benefits, SSA will ask for their Social Security numbers and their

326

birth certificates. If a spouse is applying for benefits, social security may ask for proof ofmarriage, and dates of prior marriages, if applicable. Each family member may be eligible for a monthly benefit of up to 50 percent of the disability rate. However, there is a limit to the amount social security pays a family. The total depends on the benefit amount and the number of family members who also qualify on the record. The total varies, but generally the total amount a family can receive is about 150 to 180 percent of the disability benefit.

D. The administrative process is begun when a claim is filed, as required of the Social Security Administration by 20CFR§404.603. If the claim is administratively denied, regulations permit administrative reconsideration within a six-month period as set forth in20CFR§404.909. Should a request for reconsideration prove unsuccessful, the claimant may, within 60 days, ask for an evidentiary hearing before an administrative law judge in Sec. 205 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§405. The types of information being solicited, including the following: (A) Countable income. (B) Countable assets. (C) Wasted resources. (D) Relatives capable of providing assistance. (E) Past or present employment. (F) Pending claims or causes of action. (G) A medical condition if relevant to a disability determination. (H) Any other information required by law.

1. Once an application is made the administrator shall carefully investigate the circumstances of the applicant utilizing the Income and Eligibility Verification System set forth in Sec. 1137 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§132b-7. Income verification is done by a person’s social security number under 26USC§6103(7)(D)(iii) ofthe Internal Revenue Code. When petitioners are guilty of falsely misrepresenting themselves the duration of the applicable exclusion period, with respect to the determination by the Commissioner that a person has engaged in administrative misconduct shall be – 1. six consecutive months, in the case of the first such determination with respect to the person; 2. twelve consecutive months, in the case of the second such determination with respect to the person; and 3. twenty-four consecutive months, in the case of the third or subsequent such determination with respect to the person Sec. 1129A of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1320a-8a(c).

2. The privacy and confidentiality of the personally identifying records are protected under 5USC§552a(b) that states, “No agency shall disclose any record which is containedin a system of records by any means of communication to any person, or to another agency, except pursuant to a written request by, or with the prior written consent of, the individual to whom the record pertains”. (I) vital statistics (including records of marriage, birth, and divorce); (II) State and local tax and revenue records (including information on residence address, employer, income and assets); (III) records concerning real and titled personal property; (IV) records of occupational and professional licenses, and records concerning the ownership and control of corporations, partnerships, and otherbusiness entities; (V) employment security records; (VI) records of agencies administering public assistance programs; (VII) records of the motor vehicle department; and (VIII) corrections records. Because malicious monoclonal antibody to the spine contamination of disability questionnaires mailed by local SSA offices have been witnessed interstate, an Epsom salt bath, saline solution, chlorine or salt water pool or ocean swim is prescribed to treat methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Short of arresting the perpetrator and conspiracy, to stop the B&E it is imperative that SSA stop their unprofessional entering of addresses in the social security number indexed

profile pursuant to Art. 28 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relating the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949).

E. The Trustee must provide adequate notice in writing to any participant or beneficiary whose claim for benefits under the plan has been denied, setting forth the specific reasonsfor such denial, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the participant, and afford a reasonable opportunity to any participant whose claim for benefits has been denied for a full and fair review by the appropriate named fiduciary of the decision denying the claim under 29USC§1133. The Commissioner of Social Security has delegated an Appeals Council and Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) in the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA), the authority to hear and decide appealed determinations of claims for retirement, survivor, disability, supplemental security income and statutory blindness benefits under Title II; special benefits to World War II veterans under title VIII; aged, blind and disability benefits under Title XVI; and initial and continuing entitlement to benefits under Title XVIII.

1. In general under 20CFR§404.929 one is entitled to a hearing before an administrative law judge if dissatisfied with one of the determinations or decisions listed in 20CFR§404.930 and may request a hearing. The Associate Commissioner for Hearings and Appeals, or his or her delegate, shall appoint an administrative law judge to conduct the hearing. If circumstances warrant, the Associate Commissioner, or his or her delegate,may assign your case to another administrative law judge. The hearing office (HO) must acknowledge receipt of each valid request for hearing (RH) as soon as possible, but no later than 30 days after the HO receives the RH. When a case is assigned to an ALJ for a hearing and decision, the ALJ is responsible for all actions necessary to process the case. The ALJ's principal responsibilities are to hold a full and fair hearing and issue a legally sufficient and defensible decision. The Hearings, Appeals and Litigation Law (HALLEX) manual conveys the guiding principles, procedural guidance and information from the Associate Commissioner of Hearings and Appeals to the Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA) staff.

2. Representatives who want to charge or collect a fee from a claimant or a third party, for services provided in any proceeding before the Social Security Administration (SSA) under the Social Security Act, must first obtain SSA's authorization Payment for professional representation has been set by the Commissioner of Social Security at 25% of the total amount of past due benefits or $4,000 whichever is the lesser, only in favorable claims, under Sec. 206 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§406. In general it is recommended that the term non-lawyer representative be changed to non-social worker representatives and social workers be appointed to serve in the capacity of administrative law judges, rather than lawyers. A Non-social worker may also be appointed representative by the claimant to represent their dealings before the Commissioner if the person a. is generally known to have a good character and reputation; b. is capable of giving valuable help to the claimant in connection with the claim; is not disqualified or suspended from acting as a representative in dealings before the Commissioner; and c. is not prohibited by any law from acting as a representative 20CFR§404.1705 and §416.1505.

F. The Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA) was enacted to eliminate the barriers that prohibit small businesses and individuals from securing vindication of their rights in civil

328

actions and administrative proceedings brought by or against the Federal Government and authorizes the payment of attorney's fees to a prevailing party in an action against theUnited States absent a showing by the Government that its position in the underlying litigation "was substantially justified” under 28USC§2412 (d)(1)(A). EAJA sets a deadline of 30 days after final judgment for the filing of a fee application and directs that the application include: (1) a showing that the applicant is a "prevailing party"; (2) a showing that the applicant is "eligible to receive an award" ie. net worth did not exceed $2,000,000 at the time the civil action was filed," §2412(d)(2)(B; and (3) a statement of "the amount sought, including an itemized statement from any attorney ... stating the actual time expended and the rate" charged under Scarborough v. Anthony J. Principi, Secretary of Veteran’s Affairs No. 02-1657 (2004). After the Social Security Appeals Council adopted the ALJ's recommended decision that respondent was disabled and instructed the Secretary to pay her benefits, the District Court granted the Secretary's motion to dismiss the judicial review action on the ground that respondent had obtained all the relief prayed for however the Court found that it had jurisdiction under the EAJA in Sullivan v. Hudson 490 US 977 (1989).

1. Sec. 205(h) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§405(h) states, “the findings and decisions of the Secretary after a hearing shall be binding upon all individuals who were parties to such hearings. No findings of fact or decision of the Secretary shall be reviewed by any person, tribunal or government agency except as herein provided” underCappadora v. Anthony J. Celebreeze 356 F 2d. 1, 4 (CA2 1996). Sec. 205(g) however provides that any individual after a final decision of the Secretary may obtain review of such decision by civil action commenced within 60 days by filing a civil action. The district court; in such action, has the power to enter "a judgment affirming, modifying, or reversing the [Secretary's] decision, with or without remanding the cause for a rehearing" under Mathews v. Weber 423 US 261 (1973) and Sullivan v. Finkelstein 496 US 617 (1990). Constitutional questions are unsuited for administrative hearing procedures and therefore access to the courts is essential for the answer of these questions. Written submissions provide the disability recipient with an effective means of communicating his case to the decision-maker. The judicial model of an evidentiary hearing is neither required, nor even the most effective, method of decision-making in all circumstances. One should exhaust administrative remedies before seeking judicial review under Mathews v. Eldridge 424 US 319 (1976).

2. The right of any person to payment is not be transferable or assignable, at law or in equity, and none of the moneys paid or payable or rights existing under this chapter shall be subject to execution, levy, attachment, garnishment, or other legal process, or to the operation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law Sec. 207(a) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§407(a). An entity may not engage in a discriminatory pattern or practice on the basis of age over 40 under the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 under 42USC§6101, on the basis of handicap under section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 under 29USC§794, on the basis of sex under title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 under 20USC§1681, on the basis of race, color, or national origin under title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 under 42USC§2000d or on the basis of physical or mentaldisability under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 under 42USC§12101 et seq. Religious organizations are eligible, on the same basis as any other private organization, as contractors to provide assistance, or to accept certificates, vouchers, or other forms of disbursement, so long as the programs are implemented consistent with the Establishment

329

Clause of the United States Constitution. Neither the Federal Government nor a State receiving funds under such programs shall discriminate against an organization which is or applies to be a contractor to provide assistance, or which accepts certificates, vouchers,or other forms of disbursement, on the basis that the organization has a religious character under Sec. 404(a) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§604(a). As part of the pre-release procedures for institutionalized persons the Commissioner of Social Security shall develop a system under which an individual can apply for supplemental security income benefits prior to the discharge or release of the individual from a public institution. The Commissioner shall provide notice written in simple and clear language under Sec. 1631(m.n.o) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1383(m,n,o) and Sec. 1611 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1382.

G. C. As a rule there are no residency requirements for social security disability or retirement beneficiaries. An individual is considered a "resident" if they live in the State or political subdivision administrating the supplemental relief, if the individual: has located in the area; and intends to make the area the individual's sole place of residence oris traveling through the area who needs emergency assistance and/or has a mailing address in the area. For the purpose of the administration of social security and relief residency is important because local and state administrations are expected to contribute to Social Security benefits through Medicare, foods stamps and state supplemental security income. Any State (or political subdivision) making supplementary payments may at its option impose as a condition of eligibility for such payments, and include a residence requirement which excludes individuals who have resided in the State (or political subdivision) for less than a minimum period prior to application for such payments under Sec. 1616 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1382e (c)(1). State agencies shall administrate aid to the Permanently and totally disabled to guarantee the recipients are granted steady benefits sometimes with residency requirements of up to five years under Sec. 1402 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1352 (b)(1).1. Since 1986, United States immigration law has prohibited employers from knowingly hiring or continuing to employ aliens who are not authorized to work under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Since 1996, employers have had the option of verifying names and Social Security numbers (SSNs) of new hires against SSA’s database through an employment eligibility verification system (EEVS, formerly known as the Basic Pilot) operated jointly by SSA and DHS. Until 2003, the Basic Pilot was restricted to operate in only five states, but has since been expanded nationally. Currently, about 16,700 employers at 73,000 hiring sites (less than 1 percent of all establishments) participate in the EEVS. Most participating employers do so voluntarily, but some are required to use the EEVS by law or because of prior immigration violations.In 2006, the system received over 1.6 million requests for verification. Of these, 1.4 million cases were resolved by SSA. The bulk of the remaining cases were referred to DHS for further verification of work-eligibility. People wishing to enter the United States for more than six months are directed to file Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, before they come to the United States to look for work, or before their six-month tourist visa expires. After filing and receiving a favorable determination, the applicant receives an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) and within seven days thereafter a social security card, even if they previously had a social security number. An EAD is not necessary for lawful permanent residents. The social security number allows the immigrant to work, report their wages, pay taxes and beeligible for disability and retirement benefits after 10 quarters of contributions.

2. Alien nationals are not generally eligible for social security benefits. Generally, a non-citizen is not eligible for SSI but may be eligible for SSDI if lawfully admitted for permanent residence under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and have a total of40 credits of work in the United States, a spouse’s or parent’s work may also count. Not more than 4 credits may be granted any given year. One credit per $1,420 in earnings. For purposes of determining eligibility for and the amount of benefits of an individual who is an alien, the income and resources of any person who executed an affidavit of support or similar agreement with respect to such individual, and the income and resources of the sponsor's spouse, shall be deemed to be the income and resources of suchindividual for a period of 3 years after the individual's entry into the United States. The Secretary is authorized to provide temporary assistance to citizens of the United States and to dependents of citizens of the United States, if they are identified by the Department of State as having returned, or been brought, from a foreign country to the United States because of the destitution of the citizen of the United States or the illness ofsuch citizen or any of his dependents or because of war, threat of war, invasion, or similarcrisis renders them eligible for asylum or refugee status under Sec. 1113 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1313.

3. The March 2020 monthly report of the Treasury Office Fiscal Services held that the assignment to SSA of payroll taxes and to the IRS of individual income taxes, withheld from aliens on trial pursuant to 26USC§1441 is immune from legal process by Sec. 207 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§407. So are the aliens who pay federal taxes and their entitlement to OASDI benefits after contributing for the required period of time.It is Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) who needs to be deported/abolished bya federal judge under Art. 22 of the International Convention on the Protection of Migrant Workers and their Families (1990) and Rule 4 Fed. Crim. P. It is left to Customs to redress the hyperinflation in law enforcement spending and overestimation of customs revenues caused by trade war propaganda evading and defeating payroll and individual income taxes under 26USC§7201. The President, Actuary and Supreme Court must stop discriminating regarding the continuing existence of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) and sell them all regular priced US passports with stateless indication or citizenship pursuant to common articles 26-29 of the Conventions on the Status of Refugees and Stateless Persons (1951)(1954). United States Homeland Security and Social Security must dispense social security numbers much faster and free of charge because it is in the best interest of the United States to facilitate taxpayers.

H. Disability applicants from the COVID-19 pandemic are advised to use Social Security Online before their worker privilege expires. All applicants will be treated to the Ticket to Work program and the needy to benefits pursuant Biestek v. Berryhill No. 17-1184 (2009). The Ticket to Work program must be fully funded to prescribe hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) to ensure workers and workplaces are medically treated and facilitated to negotiate with repressive States indiscriminately prohibiting their industries. All tickets to state vocational agencies issued by the Commissioner pursuant to the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Act of 1999 Sec. 1148(b)(1) of the Social Security Act under 42USC1320b-19(b)(1), funded $3,747,830,155 in 2020, 2.7% annual growth from 2015 pursuant to title I of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 under 29USC§720(b)(1) shall contain a prescription for Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP).

Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP)

a. The public must be informed that essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint aromatherapy is a non-toxic and non-allergenic cure for coronavirus and mold allergies. Due to widespread business closures and unemployment there is no denying that COVID-19 is a disability despite the availability of curative medicine pursuant to Title I Sec. 3(4)(E)(i)(I) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(4)(E)(i)(I). To protect the workplace from the highly contagious coronavirus all disability applicants are required to treat the coronavirus with these safe and effective medicines pursuant to Title I Sec. 103(b) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12113(b)

a. A drop of essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint is topically applied with asquirt bottle or index finger to the upper lip and exterior, and/or interior, of the nose. Essential oils can also be administered in cleansers, soap, spray bottle, or in humidifiers to sterilize airspace, doorways, classrooms. Public restrooms need help to be reopened with soaps and cleansers containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint. Washing the nose, face, hands and chest with soaps, provided in all public restrooms, containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint, may be the social solutionto the COVID-19 pandemic. Lysol, active ingredient eucalyptol, has been specially recommended as an environmental cleanser by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

b. Corticosteroids are the definitive medical treatment for coronavirus and mold allergies.Cushing's disease is a non-life-threatening side-effect of excessive life-saving corticosteroid use, its symptoms are fragile bones and puffy cheeks, and may a be a lead culprit in the high rates of total knee and hip replacement surgeries in industrialized nations. The non-prescription of corticosteroid inhalers to first time asthma patients is certain to be a leading cause of the dramatic rise in asthma and allergy patients over the past few decades.

c. Hydrocortisone crème is a corticosteroid that is available over-the-counter, for as little as a dollar a tube. When a dab is applied topically to the exterior of the nose, hydrocortisone creme instantly cures coronavirus and allergic rhinitis due to mold. A dabof hydrocortisone crème can also be applied to the chest to treat the potentially lethal fluid filled lungs exhibited in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) from coronavirus, the carcinogenic lung nodules of pulmonary aspergillosis and the coronavirus and mold triggers of asthma attacks for as fast a cure as a rescue inhaler and lower-cost and lower-risk of Cushing’s disease or potentially lethal malicious mold contamination than oral, intranasal, inhaled or intravenous corticosteroids.

d. Because malicious monoclonal antibody to the spine contamination of disability questionnaires mailed by local SSA offices have been witnessed interstate, an Epsom salt bath, saline solution, chlorine or salt water pool or ocean swim is prescribed to treat methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). To prevent rampant B&E SSA shall stop entering addresses in the social security number indexed profiles pursuant to Art. 28 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949).

e. To help prevent cardiopulmonary disease, diabetes, cancer and pass the Army Weight for Height Chart, sedentary beneficiaries are prescribed a minimum of 50 crunches, 50 push-ups, 40 age adjusted, and three mile run for all, everyday pursuant to the Marine Corp Physical Fitness Test (PFT). Cripples need equivalent calorie burning alternative, e.g. manual wheel chair that doesn’t tip over backward when crossing the street to the Federal Wilderness Area pursuant to Sec. 507 of the Americans with Disabilities Act under 42USC§12207.

§111 Old Age and Survivor Insurance (OASI) Trust Fund

A. The Old Age and Survivor Insurance (OASI) Trust Fund was begun with the original Social Security Act of 1935 as codified at Sec. 201 of Title II of the Social Security Act 42USC§401. Retirement benefits require that a person be at least 62 years of age. Undercurrent law, the age at which workers become eligible for full retirement benefits—known as the normal retirement age, or NRA—varies, depending on the individual’s yearof birth. For workers born before 1938, the NRA is 65. For workers born in subsequent years, the eligibility age increases in two-month increments until it reaches 66 for workers born in 1943. For workers born between 1944 and 1954, the NRA remains at 66 but rises, again in two-month increments, until it reaches 67 for workers born in 1960 or later. Workers can still receive benefits at age 62, but the benefit they receive at that age will represent a smaller share of what they could have qualified for if they had waited until the normal retirement age to claim benefits in Sec. 202 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§402. Old-age benefits are computed on the basis of a wage earner's "average monthly wage" earned during his "benefit computation years" during which his covered wages were highest as explained in Califano v. Webster 430 US 313 (1977). One month after an insured person dies a sum of not less than $255 is made payable to the widow or widower of the deceased. Should the deceased have been eligible or receiving disability or old age insurance and the spouse was not eligible but dependent upon the deceased income the surviving spouse and children are eligible for 75% of normal benefits of the deceased. A sum of not less than $225 is made out to surviving spouse upon death. A married woman under 62 whose husband retires or becomes disabled is granted monthly benefits under the Act if she has a minor or other dependent child in her care in Mathews v. DeCastro 429 US 181 (1976). Although every state may set their own standards, they may not have an older retirement age than 65. It is estimated that the payroll tax will be reduced by 10% for the entire year, although the pandemic should end after six months now that hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) has arrived. Due to the severity of the second largest economic decline since the Great Depression the economy is not projected to recover to 2019 levelsuntil 2022. With a 291% trust fund ratio (2020) and 10.6% tax rate, OASI has enough assets to be complacent about the COVID-19 pandemic.

Source: 2020 Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Old Age Survivor Insurance Trust Fund and Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund. Pg. 42. 2020 Rec. re-estimates -10% by the UN, 2021 healthy 6% payroll tax revenue growth from 2020 Pan.

1. After incurring a deficit in 2018, in the third and final year of the 2.73% DI tax rate of the Bipartisan Budget Act, the reversion to the 10.6% OASI tax rate left the OASI trust fund with a slight $6.5 billion profit in 2019, but this is lost on the COVID-19 pandemic recession in 2020. It is significant that the Actuary has not been able to adjust the OASDI tax rates since 2000. The projected hypothetical combined OASI and DI Trust Fund asset reserves become depleted and unable to pay scheduled benefits in full on a timely basis in 2035. At the time of depletion of these combined reserves, continuing income to the combined trust funds would be sufficient to pay 79 percent of scheduled benefits. The OASI Trust Fund reserves are projected to become depleted in 2034, at which time OASI income would be sufficient to pay 76 percent of OASI scheduled benefits. However, the Actuary has a long history of overestimating stable 2.4% OASDI beneficiary population growth and >5.5% cost growth, without a 3% COLA, for decades,undermining his long-term gloom and doom prophecies and calculations regarding the future of the OASI trust fund. On the other hand DI Trust Fund asset reserves are wrongly projected in the intermediate projection to become depleted in 2065, at which time continuing income to the DI Trust Fund would be sufficient to pay 92 percent of DI scheduled benefits, although the actual high cost scenario predicts complete depletion by 2026 and this may happen sooner due to the disadvantaged DI payroll tax revenues lost tothe COVID-19 pandemic recession and the high cost of compensation for the outright discrimination against disability by the Office of the Actuary. The Actuary is however highly discriminating against DI applications and incidence and his population reduction is a civil right crime that is not expected to prevail in 2020 or ever, despite, or perhaps because of the compensation due for the ankylosing spondylitis monoclonal antibodies to the back(pay) on disability questionnaires treated for Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) with an Epsom salt bath.

2. Net reimbursements from the General Fund of the Treasury amounted to $11 million in2019, not enough to register, almost all of that amount came from adjustments to prior year reimbursements based on Public Law 111- 312, the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010, Public Law 112-78, the Temporary Payroll Tax Cut Continuation Act of 2011, and Public Law 112-96, the Middle-Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012. These acts specified General Fund reimbursement for temporary reductions in employee and self-employment payroll taxes for earnings in 2011 and 2012. It is however better for the General Fund to avoid

335

paying compensation for deprivation of payroll taxes assigned to the OASDI Trust Fund whereas the tax relief goes only to payroll taxpayers who by definition are not COVID-19torture victims. Due to the extremely cheap cure, it is not surprising that the SSA B & E is a lead suspect in the transmission of coronavirus to the United States from China because of the extremely cheap price of a cure that procured at the dollar store, Epsom salt bath in the case of hospital acquired MRSA and hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavenderor peppermint in the case of coronavirus and mold allergies.

3. Since 2017 the OASI account has been slightly upwardly adjusted from prior reports by the 2020 Annual Report, but not enough to change the OASI trust fund ratio.

B. 90% of retired people earn their income in part or totally from social security. In the USA the percentage of elders living in poverty is at an all-time low, while the percentage who are rich has reached an all-time high. A person will not be eligible for full retirement benefits for such a time they have a monthly income above $2,500.00 from employment, annuities, investments, and royalties in Sec. 203 (f-D) of the Social SecurityAct under 42USC§403 (f-D). Somewhere between 750,000 and 1 million seniors are now estimated to be millionaires, yet continue to receive government entitlements and senior discounts. In 1997 an estimated $48.1 billion in social Security benefits went to households with incomes between $50,000 and $100,000. Another $15.5 billion, almost exactly what the government spends on income support for all families on welfare, will be sent to households with incomes of more than $100,000. Older Americans 65 to 74 years old have a poverty level of only 9.2%, compared with the 10% working-age poverty, 15.4% overall poverty, 15.9% medical CPI adjusted elderly poverty line, and 20% child poverty, not taking into consideration the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Source: 2020 Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Old Age Survivor Insurance Trust Fund and Federal Disability Insurance. Pg. 132 2021 estimates are 2.4% increased in all categories

1. The Actuary has moderated the overestimate of 2.4% OASI beneficiary population growth to nearly 2.5% in the 2020 Annual Report that might actually be sustained for once by people forced to retire earlier than they would like by the COVID-19 pandemic. Micromanagement regarding the treatment of duplicate spousal and worker benefits fromthe Bipartisan Budget Act should not be attributed to broken backed John Boehner, but tothe Actuary’s long list of schemes to fix the OASDI trust funds that criminally neglect to tax the and state employees to afford to create an SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2020 and all poverty by 2030. The number of retired-worker beneficiaries is estimated byapplying award rates to the aged fully insured population, excluding those already receiving retired-worker, disabled-worker, aged-widow(er)’s, or aged-spouse’s benefits, and by applying termination rates to the number of retired-worker beneficiaries. For age 62, the model projects this percentage by using a linear regression based on the historical relationship between this percentage, the labor force participation rate at age 62, and the number of months from age 62 to normal retirement age. The percentage for ages 70 and over is nearly 100 because delayed retirement credits cannot be earned after age 70, whenthey receive the mandatory maximum benefit. Benefits of aged-spouse beneficiaries depend on the earnings records of their husbands or wives, who are referred to as “earners” and receive up to 50% more to pay for their spouse and children. Due to the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, spouses who are insured will no longer be eligible to delay their retired-worker benefit while receiving an aged-spouse benefit. The model applies the same factors to the number of divorced persons aged 60 and over in the population and includes additional factors representing the probability that the person’s former earner spouse has died and that the marriage lasted at least 10 years. The projected numbers of children under age 18, and students aged 18 and 19, who are eligible for benefits as children of retired-worker beneficiaries. The number of disabled-child-survivor beneficiaries is projected in a manner similar to that for student-child-survivor beneficiaries, except for including an additional factor to reflect the probability of being disabled before age 22.

C. In 2017 the average death rate for all ages was 812.5 per 100,000. For those under 65the average rate of death was 239.4 per 100,000. For those over 65 the average rate of

337

death was 4,386.1. The average on the job death rate for all careers studied by Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) is about 3 deaths per 100,000. In peacetime there have been years where the entire 2.8 million soldier US military does not report a single casualty – 50-100 crunches, 50-100 push-ups and 3-mile run. The only career more dangerous than logging is retiree. OSHA reports that logging has the highest death rate of any career at a rate of about 100 per 100,000 per year, since the Mining Safety and Health Act of 1977 reduced the rate of mining accidents to less than 20 per 100,000 labor years. According to the Actuary the total age-sex-adjusted death rate declined at an average annual rate of 1.05 percent between 1900 and 2013. Between 1979 and 2013, the period for which death rates were analyzed by cause, the total age-sex-adjusted death rate, for all causes combined, declined at an average rate of 0.93 percent per year. Death rates have declined substantially in the U.S. since 1900, with rapid declines over some periods and slow or no improvement over other periods. Historical death rates generally declined more slowly for older ages and more rapidly for children and infants than for the rest of the population. Between 1900 and 2013, the age-sex-adjusted death rate for ages 65 and over declined at an average rate of 0.78 percent per year, while declining at an average rate of 3.08 percent per year for ages under 15. The death rate for disability beneficiaries is estimated to be about 10 per 100,000, more than three times higher than the national average of 3 per 100,000. The 2020 Annual Report has extensively revised their death estimates. Although the total death rate and age 65 and over death rate per 100,000 steadily go down, it is somewhat alarming that under 65 death-rate has been irregularly increasing since a low in 2010. SSA must definitely stop sending out poisonous disability questionnaires. Further revision is expected to increase the fertility rate, despite Census bureau propaganda and conspiracy against taxing the rich and state employees to end child poverty by 2020.

D. A nursing facility must care for its residents in such a manner and in such an environment as will promote maintenance or enhancement of the quality of life of each resident. A nursing facility must provide (or arrange for the provision of) nursing and related services and specialized rehabilitative services to attain or maintain the highest practicable physical, mental, dental and fiscal well-being of each resident, without resorting to involuntary psychiatric treatment at Sec. 1919 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1396r. If the United States wants nursing homes to reduce the dementia, irritability, agitation, aggression, hallucinations, delusions, wandering, disinhibition, anxiety, and depression—what some medical professionals call “behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia” nursing homes are going to have leave their patients with more money. Nursing homes need to leave their resident SSI beneficiaries with more than $30 a month. Second World Assembly on Aging in 2002 produced a Political Declaration and Madrid International Plan of Action on Aging pays attention to the dangers arising from social isolation and mental illness and reduce the risk they pose to the health of older persons by supporting community empowerment and mutual aid groups, including peer out-reach and neighborhood visiting programs and by facilitating the active participation of older persons in voluntary activities, such as buying and smoking marijuana. The custom of taking of all but $30 from SSI beneficiaries while they are in the long-term care of a hospital or nursing facility needs to be abolished underSec. 1161(e)(1) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1382(e)(1). SSI beneficiaries in nursing homes are due at least 30% of their benefits and the nursing home 70% whereby the residents own the home under Housing and Urban Development (HUD) guidelines, by Treasury pursuant to 24USC§14a or fee under 24USC§14.

1. Coronavirus has been diagnosed in nursing home populations, exhibiting alarmingly high death rates. It remains to be seen how significant the coronavirus diagnosis is in the 2020 all-cause mortality statistics, if the total death rate increases or continues to decreaseand if they include coronavirus in the Pandemic Pneumonia category, formerly Influenza and Pneumonia. Although there is a constant barrage of health propaganda contrary to treatment, the great discovery is that the coronavirus is the only cold with a cure. To end the COVID-19 pandemic the public must be informed to instantly cure coronavirus and mold allergies with a dab of hydrocortisone crème or, to avoid non-life-threatening Cushing’s disease side-effect from excessive use, essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint to the nose and/or chest.

§112 Disability Insurance (DI) Trust Fund

A. The Disability Insurance Trust Fund was established on August 1, 1956 when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed into law the 1956 Amendments to Sec. 201(b)(1)of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1). In 1956 a 0.250% tax was set forth on the income of employees and employers, 0.500% combined and 0.350% tax on self-

339

employed workers in 1957-58. 50/50 equality in taxation between the combined cost of employees and employers and self-employed workers was achieved in 1984. Since 2000 the Board of Trustees has been unable or unwilling to adjust the OASDI tax rates. During the Great Recession this inability to adjust the DI tax rate, became a serious problem attributed to the age of high incidence of disability of the Baby Boomers causingan estimated $183 billion in damages, $224 billion with 2.5% interest, nearly depleting the DI Trust Fund. The correct DI tax rate was 2.03% (2009), 2.35% (2010), 2.36 (2011), 2.39% (2012), 2.45% (2013), 2.31% (2014) and 2.24% (2015). The 2.37% DI tax under the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 helped the DI Trust Fund to partially recover$65 billion, however, it incurred an unnecessary OASI deficit in 2018 and should have been reduced to 2.05% (2018) to protect the OASI Trust Fund. As of 2020 the Board of Trustees owes the DI Trust Fund an estimated $167 billion compensation, with 2.5% interest except during the years of 2016-2018, plus $4 billion new damages incurred by their failure to adjust the OASDI tax rate to 1.9% in 2019, for a total of $171 billion. 2020 Annual Report estimates do not take into consideration an estimated 10% decline, in payroll taxes for the duration of the pandemic, for which the Board of Trustees is not charged for damaging the DI Trust Fund, although their recent downward historical revisionism of 2016-2019 and planned disability population reduction in the 2020 AnnualReport is clearly a fraud under Biestek v. Berryhill No. 17-1184 (2019).

1. The 2020 Annual Report neglects to consider the disparate impact the COVID-19 pandemic has on the disability insurance program. 8 million covered workers receive pandemic compensation that expires July 31, 2020 and another 22 million receive extended unemployment compensation from States until January 1, 2021. The $600 extrabenefit every week sustaining the pandemic compensation program expires July 31 and was not re-authorized in a timely fashion by Congress. The number of disabled workers is certain to increase as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic for five months of 2020 and all of 2021. Low, intermediate and high cost estimates are needed for the DI program 2020 and 2021. In the low estimate a 3.3% increase in benefit spending over theprevious year is estimated to provide benefits for one million new beneficiaries in 2020 and another one million in 2021, for a total of two million net new beneficiaries, this quota should be immediately implemented to protect needy COVID-19 disabled workers from being jerked around by an irresolute Congress on speed (ephedrine) regarding the termination of the pandemic compensation and extended unemployment compensation programs. The intermediate estimate provides for a 14% increase in benefit spending to provide four months disability benefits for about 4 million new beneficiaries in 2020 and all year 2021, plus about five million of 22 million extended unemployment compensation beneficiaries, for a 190% increase 2019-2021. On the high end, as many as 8 million unemployment beneficiaries may receive an average of four months disability benefits, for 20% growth DI benefit spending in 2020 and 80% increase in 2021 costs, plus 20 million who remain unemployed after the expiration of extended unemployment benefits on January 1, 2021, for as much as 280% enrollment growth. Administrative costs are estimated to increase $0.1 billion in the intermediate and $0.3 billion in the intermediate and high estimates.

342

2. A high 6% rate of growth is expected in payroll tax revenues in 2021, even if the pandemic does not end. Those industries to be closed have already been imposed upon by the State and there shall be a high level of adaptation, negotiation and punishment for censorship of the safety and effectiveness of hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) and other interventions to protect the workplace against coronavirus. 6% growth from the low in 2020 is significantly more than the previous year, and the economic depression caused by COVID-19 is believed to be self-limiting. If the information regarding the safety and effectiveness of hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) arrives, the economy and payroll tax revenues could be normalized, despite a modest increase in disability beneficiaries, that might be downgraded as people return to substantially gainful work for nine months pursuant to Sec. 222 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§422. It looks like the DI Trust Fund should be able to afford the low-cost scenario if the OASDI tax rate is adjusted and the intermediate scenario if the rich and state employees are taxed. The high cost scenario, whereby all or most unemployment compensation beneficiaries receive disability is not affordable. To protect the workforce and place from contagious disease, it must be required that all applicants are informed hydrocortisone creme, essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender, peppermint and eucalyptus (HELP) nose sanitizer and aromatherapy cure both coronavirus and mold allergies to pursuant to Sec. 103(b) of the ADA under 42USC§12113(b), Sutton v. United Air Lines, Inc., 527 U.S. 471 (1999) and Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky, Inc. v. Williams, 534 U.S. 184 (2002).

B. During the Great Recession, that was much less severe than the current economic depression caused by the coronavirus, that is the most severe economic downturn since the Great Depression in the 1930s, total DI beneficiaries in current payment status increased 5% in 2010, 4.2% in 2011, 2.6% in 2012, 0% in 2013. Since 2014 the DI population has steadily declined due to the retirement of the Baby Boomers and unlawful toxic deterrent -0.5% in 2014, -1.1% in 2015, -1.8% in 2016, -1.9% in 2017, -0.5% in 2018. The precipitous decline -4.2% in 2019 on page 141 and – 2.2% on page 62 and -9.3% 2020 projection on page 141 and –1.9% on page 62 of the 2020 Annual Report are not certain, seem to be mostly accounting error and will have to be officially reviewed before the 2021 Annual Report. Berryhill’s -4.2% DI beneficiary population reduction is attributed to the effectiveness of the Ticket to Work Program pursuant to Biestek v. Berryhill, Commissioner of Social Security No. 17-1184 (2019). Saul’s projected -9.2% reduction does not take into consideration the COVID-19 pandemic and attempts to rely on torture and terrorism finance to evade claims for compensation. There is obviously too much incentive for them to reduce the disability population to produce consistent and accurate statistics regarding the disabled population. The pre-COVID-19 finding is an abusively coerced -2.2% (2019) and attempted -1.9% (2020) DI population reduction. Although there is no reason to implicate the Ticket to Work program or disabled workers in general for the pandemic, the penalty for releasing too many disabled persons into the workforce is obviously 32 million COVID-19 pandemic disabled workers. Counting for auxiliary beneficiaries reduces the percentage of pandemic compensation beneficiaries anticipated to receive disability benefits. Auxiliary beneficiaries are qualifying spouses and children of disabled workers. A spouse must either be at least age 62 or have an eligible child beneficiary in his or her care who is either under age 16 or disabled prior to age 22. A child must be: (1) under age 18, (2) age 18 or 19 and still a student in high school, or (3) age 18 or older and disabled prior to age 22. The projection of the number of auxiliary beneficiaries relies on the projected number of disabled-worker beneficiaries.

Source: 2020 Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Old Age Survivor Insurance Trust Fund and Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund. Pg. 141 and Pg. 62 reports different total numbers of DI beneficiaries in 2019 and 2020.

1. The 2020 Annual Report erroneously reports, for the second year in a row, there has been a significant change in the DI reserve depletion date for two main reasons: (1) a change in the ultimate assumed disability incidence rate, and (2) continuing favorable experience for DI applications and benefit awards, which remained at historically low levels for 2019. Disability applications have declined substantially since 2010, and the total number of disabled-worker beneficiaries in current payment status has been falling since 2014. For this report, disability applications and incidence rates are assumed to rise more gradually from the current low levels to an ultimate age-sex-adjusted disability incidence rate of 5.0 per thousand exposed by the end of the short-range projection period, compared to 5.2 per thousand assumed in last year’s report and 5.4 per thousand assumed in the 2018 report. In 2019, the number of DI beneficiaries in current-payment status continued the declining trend of the prior five years. Under the intermediate assumptions, that number of DI beneficiaries is projected to drop further through the end of 2022, then increase through the end of 2026 to a level slightly below 10 million, whichit remains near through the rest of the short-range projection period. The Office of the Chief Actuary projects the number of newly awarded beneficiaries for each future year by multiplying assumed age-sex- specific disability incidence rates and the projected disability-exposed population by age and sex. The disability-exposed population excludesthose receiving benefits, while the disability insured population includes them. In this year’s report, incidence rates are assumed to rise more gradually early in the short-range period than in last year’s report, and are lower later in the period. Incidence rates are assumed to be somewhat elevated during the period 2020 through 2021, when the Social Security Administration is expected to eliminate a backlog of individuals who have appealed for a hearing on a prior disability claim denial.

2. Previously the only detected error in SSA population statistics was a perennial overestimate of 2.4% annual OASI population growth to justify stochastic projections of an OASI deficit. Retirement is expected to be high, around 3% due the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2019 Annual Report embarked on a revision of immigration statistics to assume there was a massive deportation in 2016 that is incredible. The conspiracy to undercount the DI population is similar in that the prior administration is blamed for far more cuts than actually occurred to support an unlawful policy of DI population reduction. SSA population statistics have never produced an accurate study of beneficiaries by race. SSA population statistics are believed to suffer a conspiracy with US Census Bureau child welfare fraud regarding the destruction of population pyramid due to a reduction of child population estimates from 24% of the population in 2010 to the impossibly low rate of 22.7% in 2014. The reduction in child population and destruction of the population pyramid is attributed to declining birth rates, but is actually

345

believed to be a welfare fraud perpetuating the 10 million child benefit cut from the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act (PRWOA) of 1996 that must be ruleda crime of genocide whereas the destruction of or denial of access to food, shelter and other essentials of life, all with the intent to destroy the…group, in whole or in part, constitute the crime of genocide pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. SSA must make an effort to improve their disability statistics by race pursuant to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 under 42USC§2000d and in general under the Art. 31 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2007). To better account for disability beneficiaries the Board of Trustees is advised to produce detailed tables of applications, incidence and termination, by age as is done in three separate tables in the Annual Report of the SSI Program or in one table of applications, beneficiaries in current payment status and terminations.

C. The term ''disability'' means the inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months as set forth by Sec. 223 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§423. A person’s disability insurance eligibility status shall not be revoked until such a time when work earnings exceed, for 9 months, the level of earnings established as substantial gainful activity under Sec. 222 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§422. In determining whether a claimant is entitled to Social Security disability benefits, special weight is accorded opinions of the claimant's treating physician that statethat the physical or mental illness or injury is so debilitating that the person can no longerperform their gainful employment under 20CFR§404.1527(d)(2). An individual shall notbe considered to be under a disability unless he furnishes such medical and other evidence of the existence thereof as the Commissioner of Social Security may require. Anindividual's statement as to pain or other symptoms shall not alone be conclusive evidence of disability as defined in this section; there must be medical signs and findings,established by medically acceptable clinical or laboratory diagnostic techniques, which show the existence of a medical impairment that results from anatomical, physiological, or psychological abnormalities which could reasonably be expected to produce then pain,poverty or other symptoms alleged. Travel, medical and court expenses shall be paid by the Commissioner of Social Security for making the determination of disability under Sec. 202(j) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§402(j). When covered workers become severely disabled, they may be eligible, after a five-month waiting period, to receive monthly Disability Insurance (DI) benefits. After an additional twenty-four months, disabled workers (as well as disabled widow(er)s age 50 through 64) and disabled adult children (of retired, disabled, or deceased workers) are eligible for all Medicare benefits.

Source: Table 6: distribution by sex and diagnostic group and Table 7 Average Monthly Benefit Amount. Annual Statistical Report on the Social Security Disability Insurance Program December 2009

1. Of the 7.78 million disabled workers earning DI benefits 4.1 million were men earningan average of $1,189 a month and 3.69 million were women earning an average benefit of $925 in 2009. Sexual discrimination is clearly indicated in the DI program - men make $4.87 billion while women make $3.4 billion a month. There is ample evidence to indicate both sexual discrimination and discrimination on the basis of diagnosis exist in the DI program. Racial discrimination is so pervasive in the disability and SSI programs that Social Security does not have any reliable statistics. 27.5 percent of DI benefits go for the mental illness diagnostic group followed closely by musculoskeletal system and connective tissue diseases comprising 24.9 percent of beneficiaries. Those with musculoskeletal diseases earned significantly more on average $1,121.20 than those with a diagnosis of mental illness $940.10. Cancer was the highest earning diagnostic group with an average benefit of $1,210.90 a month. Of those who worked the least before becoming disabled and unable to work, those with congenital abnormalities earned an average of $793.40 and those who were mentally retarded who earned the equivalent of SSI $668.00 in December 2009. The monthly substantial gainful amount (SGA) amount for statutorily blind individuals for 2017 is $1950. For non-blind individuals, the monthlySGA amount for 2017 is $1170.

2. The term “disability” means, with respect to an individual— a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of such individual; major life activities include, but are not limited to, caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, seeing, hearing, eating, sleeping, walking, standing, lifting, bending, speaking, breathing, learning, reading, concentrating, thinking, communicating, and working. A major life activity also includes the operation of a major bodily function, including but not limited to, functions of the immune system, normal cell growth, digestive, bowel, bladder, neurological, brain, respiratory, circulatory, endocrine, and reproductive functions in Sec. 3(2) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(2). The determination of whether an impairment substantially limits a major life activity shall be made without regard to the ameliorative effects of mitigating measures such as medication pursuant to Sec. 3(4)(E)(i)(I) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(4)(E)(i)(I). COVID-19 is a disability. It has devastated the economy and payroll tax from February 2020. There were 32 million people receiving unemployment compensation benefits as of July 31 when the $600 weekly pandemic compensation terminated, leaving 8 million people without benefits under the CARES Act and reducing regular state unemployment benefitsto their usual rate. Essentially, due to the economic collapse resulting from excessive bailouts and store closures, everyone out of work due to the COVID-19 pandemic, will beentitled to disability insurance if the pandemic is not cured and economic depression averted, when their unemployment compensation expires, and they must all be informed of the treatment and cured of the COVID-19 disease, whereas the term “qualification standards” may include a requirement that an individual shall not pose a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals in the workplace in Title I Sec. 103(b) of the ADA under 42USC§12113(b).

3. It is alarming that the 2020 Annual Report of the Board of Trustees indicates that since2010 the number of deaths of under-age 65 has increased from 248.5 per 100,000 in 2010to 254.3 per 100,000 in 2020, without estimating COVID-19 pandemic mortality. The under-age 65 death rate of disability beneficiaries is 243 per 100,000, slightly lower than the average under-age death rate. Deaths over age 65 continue the steady decline since 1900. The 2020 Annual Report repeatedly emphasizes disability “exposure”. Applicantsmust beware of B&E and toxic disability questionnaires. Applicants must be prescribed hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) to cure coronavirus and an Epsom salt bath to treat methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). To preparefor 8 million pandemic compensation to disability transition applicants in August, and as many as another 24 million in SSA local offices need to stop entering homes in the profile whereas there is an arrest warrant out for the B&E perpetrator and local SSA offices must stop chronically sending out disability questionnaires that are contaminated by a monoclonal antibody that infects the spine, with methicillin resistant Staphylococcusaureus (MRSA) cured with an Epsom salt bath, or swim in a chlorine or salt water swimming pool or ocean.

4. Monoclonal antibody contaminated disability questionnaires and address associated B&E pose a direct threat to working age adults and children. The term “direct threat” means a significant risk to the health or safety of others that cannot be eliminated by reasonable accommodation by Title I Sec. 101(3) of the ADA under 42USC§12111(3). Consequentially, its victims are entitled to compensation for torture under Art. 14 of the

348

Convention against Torture, Cruel, Inhuman, Degrading Punishment or Treatment (1987). Art. 16 (3) of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2007) provides, in order to prevent the occurrence of all forms of exploitation, violence and abuse, States Parties shall ensure that all facilities and programmes designed to serve persons with disabilities are effectively monitored by independent authorities. Wherefore, it has been advised that local offices retain a physician, informed regarding the contamination of disability by a monoclonal antibody to the back, so staff could take their gloves off on the outgoing mail, that should be minimized in favor of receiving information from the diseased applicant and rendering a healthy determination. Short of arresting the perpetrator and conspiracy, to stop the B&E it is imperative that SSA stop their unprofessional entering of addresses in the social security number indexed profile pursuant to Art. 28 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relating the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949).

D. For failing to adjust the OASDI tax rate and discriminatorily scheming to reduce the disabled population, the Board of Trustees must be charged with discrimination against disability. The term “discriminate against a qualified individual on the basis of disability” includes— utilizing standards, criteria, or methods of administration that have the effect of discrimination on the basis of disability; or that perpetuate the discriminationof others who are subject to common administrative control in Title I Sec. 102 of the ADA under 42USC§12112(b)(3)(A)(B). The Treasury is obligated to protect the Government and individuals from fraud and loss, that apply to anyone who may receive for the Government, Treasury notes, United States notes, or other Government securities; or be engaged or employed in preparing and issuing those notes or securities under 31USC§321(a)(5). The Board of Trustees is obligated to provide balance available for the usual disabled workers and those disabled by the COVID-19 pandemic pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502. Art. 28(1)(c)(e) of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities provides1. States Parties recognize the right of persons with disabilities to an adequate standard of living for themselves and their families, including adequate food, clothing and housing, and to the continuous improvement of living conditions, and shall take appropriate steps to safeguard and promote the realization of this right without discrimination on the basis of disability. (c) To ensure access by persons with disabilities and their families living in situations of poverty to assistance from the State with disability related expenses, including adequate training, counseling, financial assistance and respite care; (e) To ensure equal access by persons with disabilities to retirement benefits and programs.

1. Because the reserves of the DI Trust Fund at the beginning of 2020 were less than the estimated annual cost for 2020, and are projected to remain below annual cost throughoutthe short-range period under the intermediate assumptions, the DI Trust Fund fails the Trustees’ test of short-range financial adequacy. The error regarding the DI Trust Fund asset reserves being projected to become depleted in the incredibly long-time of 2065, at which time continuing income to the DI Trust Fund would ostensibly be sufficient to pay 92 percent of DI scheduled benefits. However, during 2019, the reserves in the DI Trust Fund decreased by $4.0 billion, from $97.1 billion at the end of 2018 to $93.1 billion at the end of 2019. Under the intermediate and low-cost assumptions, reserves increase through 2029. Under the high- cost assumptions, DI reserves decline until depletion in the fourth quarter of 2026. The double standard is proven in the hypothesis: If the OASI Trust Fund reserves were to become depleted in 2034 as is currently projected, the

349

operations of the hypothetical combined OASI and DI Trust Funds would not reflect the aggregated operation of the OASI Trust Fund and the DI Trust Fund because part of the OASI benefits could not be paid without a change in the law. Implicitly, the values shown for the hypothetical combined trust funds assume the law will have been changed to permit the transfer of resources between funds as needed. It constitutes discrimination against disability for the Board of Trustees to assume that the fake “law” justifying their OASDI tax rate adjustment strike since 2000 would be abolished, if it were the OASI Trust Fund threatened with insolvency pursuant to in Title I Sec. 102 of the ADA under 42USC§12112(b)(3)(A)(B). However, fake law does not enable the Board of Trustees to perform the OASDI tax rate adjustment calculus, their most difficult mathematical challenge, and discrimination against disability makes it even less likely that they will suddenly learn how to do the OASDI tax rate calculus wanted to justify transfer money between Trust Funds pursuant to title II Sec. 201(b)(1) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1).

2. It may be a defense to a charge of discrimination that an alleged application of qualification standards, tests, or selection criteria that screen out or tend to screen out or otherwise deny a job or benefit to an individual with a disability has been shown to be job-related and consistent with business necessity, and such performance cannot be accomplished by reasonable accommodation in Title I Sec. 103(a) of the ADA under 42USC§12113(a). It is not a legal defense that the Board of Trustees is trying to enforce their discriminatory disability population reduction with poisonous disability questionnaires and B&E. It constitutes discrimination against disability that the 2020 Annual Report presumes that the disability insurance trust fund can sustain itself on the basis of an unlawful reduction in the number of disability beneficiaries, until the impossibly long time of 2065, with an inadequate (<100) trust fund ratio of 66 (2019) declining to 62 (2020), disregarding the millions of disabled workers from COVID-19 pandemic. The Board of Trustees is neglecting to treat the wrongful reversion to the inadequate 1.8% DI tax rate in 2019 by abusing beneficiaries with threatened population cuts, poorly accounted for. In the 2020 Annual Report, the Office of the Chief Actuary isspecifically attributed with discriminating against disability by planning to reduce the “exposed” disabled population to fit the discriminatory 1.8% DI tax rate. Severe consequences of this fraud have been witnessed- poisonous disability questionnaires and breaking and entering (B&E) to dissuade uncounted disability applicants, overt discrimination against disabled population and the DI trust fund and violent email responses by the Actuary, i.e. war on Palestine, and arson in lieu of home invasion. To explain the first-degree murder and discrimination against disability, as well as the statistically unstudied topic of racial discrimination in disability awards, it seems prudent to admit the capital civil rights crime of deprivation of right under color of law against the Board of Trustees in regards to their profound legal inability to perform the OASDI tax rate calculus due to deprivation of rights under color of some uncited “law” under 18USC§241.

3. Olmstead v. LC No. 98-536 (1999) held, Title II of the American Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, which proscribes discrimination in the provision of public services, specifies, inter alia, that no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in, or be denied the benefits of, a public entity'sservices, programs, or activities or be subjected to discrimination by such entity in Sec. 202 of the ADA under 42USC§12132. The "reasonable-modifications regulation,"

350

requires public entities to "make reasonable modifications" to avoid "discrimination on the basis of disability," but does not require measures that would "fundamentally alter" the nature of the entity's programs under 28CFR§35.130(b)(7). Discrimination in compensation occurs when a discriminatory compensation decision or other practice is adopted, when an individual becomes subject to a discriminatory compensation decision or other practice, or when an individual is affected by application of a discriminatory compensation decision or other practice, including each time wages, benefits, or other compensation is paid, resulting in whole or in part from such a decision or other practice. In addition to any relief, liability may accrue and an aggrieved person may obtain relief, including recovery of back pay for up to two years preceding the filing of the charge pursuant to Sec. 706(e)(3) of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 under 42USC§2000e(3)(A)(B) and 29USC§794a. It is assumed, due to their well-meaning compensation program, they use to justify hyperinflation in excess of 10% annual spending growth, the VA has managed to stop their back pain backpay passively noted in Scarborough v. Anthony J. Principi, Secretary of Veteran’s Affairs No. 02-1657 (2004) and Shinseki, Secretary of Veteran's Affairs v. Sanders No. 07-1209 (2009) while SSA continues to B&E and send out monoclonal antibody to the back contaminated disability questionnaires pursuant to Astrue, Commissioner of Social Security v. Ratliff No. 08-1322 (2010) and Biestek v. Berryhill, Commissioner of Social Security No. 17-1184 (2019).

4. The preamble to the Convention the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2007) provides (h) Recognizing also that discrimination against any person on the basis of disability is a violation of the inherent dignity and worth of the human person. (p) Concerned about the difficult conditions faced by persons with disabilities who are subject to multiple or aggravated forms of discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national, ethnic, indigenous or social origin,property, birth, age or other status. Art. 2 defines "Discrimination on the basis of disability" to mean any distinction, exclusion or restriction on the basis of disability which has the purpose or effect of impairing or nullifying the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal basis with others, of all human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural, civil or any other field. It includes all forms of discrimination, including denial of reasonable accommodation; "Reasonable accommodation" means necessary and appropriate modification and adjustments not imposing a disproportionate or undue burden, where needed in a particular case, to ensureto persons with disabilities the enjoyment or exercise on an equal basis with others of all human rights and fundamental freedoms. Art. 4(e) To take all appropriate measures to eliminate discrimination on the basis of disability by any person, organization or private enterprise. Art. 5(3) In order to promote equality and eliminate discrimination, States Parties shall take all appropriate steps to ensure that reasonable accommodation is provided.

§113 Supplemental Security Income

A. The SSI program is a means-tested transfer program administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA) to assist individuals who have attained age 65 or are blindor disabled, by setting a guaranteed minimum income level for such persons pursuant to Sec. 1611 of Title XVI of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1382. SSI was established in 1972, and went into effect January 1, 1974, as part of Public Law 92-603. SSI replaced the former Federal-State programs of Old-Age Assistance, Aid to the Blind,

351

and Aid to the Permanently and Totally Disabled in the 50 States and the District of Columbia. Residents of the Northern Mariana Islands became eligible for SSI in January 1978. SSI is paid for by the General Fund, not the Old Age Survivor and Disability Insurance (OASDI) Trust Funds. About half of States also pay for, or supplement benefits to individuals. SSI beneficiaries are immediately eligible for Medicaid in most states and, if they live independently, for food stamps, except in California where they are paid extra cash. The tax loophole for the rich and state employees must be closed by repealing Sec. 230 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§430 to to pay for workers disabled by the COVID-19 pandemic and create in the Treasury a Supplemental Security Income Trust Fund beginning January 1, 2021 to end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030 in Sec. 201(b)(3) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(3).

1. Supplemental Security Income (SSI) is a general assistance program with the same concept of qualifying disability as disability insurance (DI) but not requiring the beneficiary to have made any contributions. People without a qualifying disability who have made no contributions their entire life automatically qualify for SSI at age 65. The term “disability” means inability to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason ofany medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months in Sec. 223 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§423(d)(1)(A). The monthly maximum SSI Federal amounts for 2020 are $783 for an eligible individual, $1,176 for an eligible individual with an eligible spouse. Social security generally pays up to 150% of a qualifying beneficiary's original benefit to pay for a spouse and children. SSI pays about 1.8 million child SSI benefits, 22% of 8.0 million federal SSI benefits in 2020. Child SSI benefits terminate at age 18 or upon graduation from high school at 19 or 20, if the child is not diagnosed with a permanent disability.

Source: Berryhill, Nancy. Acting Commissioner of Social Security. 2018 and 2019 Annual Report of the Supplemental Security Income Program. September 1, 2017, July 31, 2018. Saul, Andrew 2020 Annual Report of the Supplemental Security Income Program. Est. – preliminary estimate. Nothing final. Sup. – supplemental providing 4% spending, 3% COLA and 1% population growth. Dev. – devaluating 11.7% would provide $250 billion for SSI to end child poverty by 2020. Tax – taxing the rich and stateemployees to create an SSI Trust Fund will end all poverty by 2020. The average benefit estimate of $559 for 2019 is wrong, the average benefit equals $56,870,000,000 divided by 8,050,000 divided by 12 equals $589 (2019) plus 1.6% COLA equals $598 (2020).

2. The primary issues regarding the SSI program, the COLA, maximum benefit, population, benefit spending, administrative costs and total expenditures are combined onto one table. The average benefit must be calculated by dividing benefit spending by population and grow at the same rate as the COLA. Plans to reduce the SSI population and spending are doomed to failure to pay legal child support obligation under 18USC§228 and deprivation of relief under 18USC§246. All non-contributing Baby Boomers will not be over the age of 65 until 2029 and the poverty and child poverty ratesare twice as high as the next poorest industrialized nation. Attempts to reduce the SSI population in 2019 failed and are certain to continue to fail again in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and highest poverty rate of any industrialized nation. The SSI program must grow to redress child poverty and all poverty. It is essential to life with 2.7% average annual inflation since 1980, that disability insurance spending normally grows 4% annually to pay a 3% COLA and 1% population growth, to create an income floor for United States citizens insured against economic depression in balance available to the poor pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act under 31USC§1502. To correct the deficiency it is essential that a supplemental appropriation be enacted and the tax on the rich and state employees be proposed under 31USC§1515. To provide for 1% populationgrowth 2019 – 2020 it is estimated that an $878 million supplement is needed to increase total benefit and administrative spending from $61,285 million to $62,163 million in

353

2020. To provide 1% population growth and 3% COLA and $3,412 million supplement is needed to increase spending from $6,223 million to $64,635 million in 2021.

3. SSI benefits and low-income disability and retirement benefits, need to grow slightly faster than inflation, 3% annually. With an automatic 3% COLA, although benefits may currently not be enough to raise a person out of poverty, at some time in the future they should, and they should not become unable to afford bills they could previously afford. Any shortfall from 3% COLA can only be perceived as the civil rights crime of deprivation of relief benefits under 18USC§246 now pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. The Commissioner must come to grips with the 3% COLA, originally determined as 2.4 percent, but pursuant to Public Law 106-554, enacted December 21, 2000, is effectively now 2.5 percent. 1974 - 1980 the COLA was 14.3%, an average of 2.4% annually. 1990-2000 16.1%, 1.6% annually. 2000-2010 27.8%, 2.8% annually. 2010-2020 11.6%, 1.2% annually, with three zero COLA years. With a 1.6% COLA 2020 the six-year term of the Commissioner has been tentatively reduced in half to three years under Sec. 702 of the Social Security act under 42USC§902 and 18USC§246.

B. The prevalence rate for all Federal SSI recipients declined from 1975 through the early1980s. In 1983, this percentage started increasing and continued to increase through 1996. The number of SSI recipients receiving Federal payments increased rapidly in the early 1990s due to the growth in the numbers of disabled adults and children. The growthin the numbers of children receiving SSI resulted in large part from the Supreme Court decision in the case of Sullivan v. Zebley, 110 S. Ct. 885 (1990), which greatly expanded the criteria used for determining disability for children. SSA determined that roughly one quarter of all beneficiaries – 1.85 million— could not manage their own benefits and appointed others to manage their funds. The implementation of Public Law 104-121 and Public Law 104-193 resulted in a decline in the Federal recipient population from 1996 to1997. From the end of 1997 through the end of 2000, the Federal SSI recipient populationgrew at an annual rate of less than 1%. From the end of 2000 to the end of 2008, the Federal SSI recipient population grew an average of 1.7% per year. From the end of 2008to the end of 2012, the Federal recipient population grew an average of 2.7% per year duelargely to the economic recession, the slow recovery from that economic downturn and age of highest incidence of disability for the Baby Boomer generation. In 2013, the Federal SSI recipient growth slowed to 1.3%, with much smaller growth in 2014. The Federal SSI recipient population decreased slightly in 2015, by roughly 0.2% relative to 2014. Since 2016 the SSI population has remained 8 million although the number of applications and children growing up in poverty increases.

1. The SSI program needs to desist with the near zero-population and spending growth, the in-kind-support mechanism (ISM) and disability requirements to use the program to end poverty, as it is designed, without disability questionnaire. To minimally make progress ending poverty it is normally necessary to afford a 3% Cost-living-adjustment (COLA) and 1% population growth, with 4% inflation in SSI budget. While disability insurance is more expensive than 2.5% inflation for government and 3% for services, SSIis a consumer economic subsidy that targets the poor. Pro-poor administration benefits sustainable economic growth and price control, more than any other economic intervention, because it increases the purchasing power of poor, price conscious people, who return the vast majority of their income into the consumer economy, rather than invest or squander it on hyperinflation, pursuant to Engel’s law. SSI is underutilized to reduce and eliminate poverty, and the rich and state employees are untaxed. Net zero SSIpopulation growth rate does not redress net zero poverty reduction over the past three decades, the 20% child, 10% working age, and 9% elderly poverty rate, the highest poverty rate amongst industrialized nations, or make progress on the income floor.

E. Total SSI spending, including both benefits and administrative cost, are traditionally undeclared by the Annual Report, very similar to total discretionary and mandatory funding in the Treasury budget. In this margin, where OMB, who already retroactively changed their only right answer, is expected to do the math, SSI spending reached $60.6 billion in 2019 and intends to stagnate there with unrealistically low growth estimates

355

$61.3 billion (2020) and $61.2 billion (2021). These persecutions regarding the number of the beast must not last longer than 42 months (Revelations 13:10). The actual Defenseagainst persecution, that can make the -$8 billion Treasury FY 21 budget deficiency a $1.5 trillion Relief Act and SSI’s -$8 billion deficiency a cool $250 billion FY 21, tax free to end child poverty 2020 if the US decides to devaluate 11.7% October 1, 2020, is that there is a will to grow from 6 to 7 in less than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). Commissioner Astrue committed a grave error with $674 SSI (2009-2011) because the persecution began at $600 and ended with $700. The Great Recession and current COVID-19 pandemic indicate that this persecution is the absolute leading cause of economic depression. Astrue violently prolonged the Great Recession, as a consequence SSA is still toxic to this day. This time, it is the Secretary-General of the United Nations who is inciting economic depression from the untreated COVID-19 pandemic by cruelly and unusually cutting UN Peacekeeping spending from more than, to less than $7 billion, for more than 42 months as of December 2020. He is so obsessed that he has not even produced a Peacekeeping Budget for the July 1, 2020 – June 31, 2021 year and news reports indicate that the UN Peacekeeping budget has been frozen at $6.5 billion by the General Assembly. The objective is not to persecute people with the number of the beast,but to justify sustaining more rapid growth than normal to achieve lucky numeral seven.

1. Taxing the rich and state employees 2021 would create in the Treasury a SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty 2024 and all poverty by 2030. A 0.7 tax rate would enable SSIpay more than $70 billion benefits (2021) in less than 42 months (Revelation 13:10). A 0.75 or better tax rate when COVID-19 disabled workers return to work in 2022 will accelerate benefits for children and non-contributors and the best program with which to create an income floor to end poverty by 2030. The weight of gold which came in to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold (1 Kings 10:14)(2 Chronicles 9:13). He whohas an ear, let him hear. If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints for forty-two months…He alsoforced everyone great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark which is the name of the beast or the number of his name, This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666 (Revelation 13:9, 10 & 16-18). O Prophet! why do you forbid (yourself) that which Allah has made lawful for you; you seek to please your wives; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful (The Prohibition 66:1). O you who believe! save yourselves and yourfamilies from a fire whose fuel is men and stones; over it are angels stern and strong, theydo not disobey Allah in what He commands them, and do as they are commanded (The Prohibition 66:6). Thy people called it a lie, and yet it is the truth. Say, I have not charge over you; to every prophecy is a set time, and in the end ye shall know (Cattle 6:66). Say:Come I will recite what your Lord has forbidden to you-- (remember) that you do not associate anything with Him and show kindness to your parents, and do not slay your children for (fear of) poverty-- We provide for you and for them-- and do not draw nigh to indecencies, those of them which are apparent and those which are concealed, and do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden except for the requirements of justice; this He has enjoined you with that you may understand (Cattle 6:151).

2. SSA must stop wearing gloves on the outgoing mail and stop entering addresses into the profile. Since the Great Recession the SSA B&E has been very toxic. Unnecessary

356

SSA questionnaires contaminate the US mail with a monoclonal antibody to sacrum, up the spine to the brain, with lethal and paralytic potential, if the offending Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) is not cured with an Epsom salt bath. There is no guarantee that the B & E follows these rules and SSA must stop entering people’s addresses in the profile. Nonetheless, to take off their gloves on the outgoing mail, SSA must inform the public that Epsom salt bath cures Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Epsom salt bath a cheap miracle cure for hospital acquired MRSA that is otherwise poorly treated with doxycycline or wrongly treated with months of penicillinIV although ‘cillin’ is obviously ineffective. Furthermore, the timing of the B & E diseaseand cheapness of the cure, indicate that SSA data vulnerabilities are a lead suspect in the transmission of COVID-19 pandemic from China. The public must be informed that a dab of $1 hydrocortisone crème and essential oil of lavender to the nose and/or chest instantly cures coronavirus and mold allergies. Because it primarily primarily disables workers who contribute to the DI tax the COVID-19 pandemic is unlikely to a significanteffect on SSI enrollment. Nonetheless, by creating an SSI Trust Fund, SSA is committed to ending child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030, therewith and to make good on this promise orphan shall be a qualifying disability and SSI enrollment should immediately increase and continue to increase at an enhanced rate to create an income floor by 2030. SSI applicants, whether or not they participate in the Ticket to work program shall be prescribed HELP.

Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP)

a. The public must be informed that essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint aromatherapy is a non-toxic and non-allergenic cure for coronavirus and mold allergies. Due to widespread business closures and unemployment there is no denying that COVID-19 is a disability despite the availability of curative medicine pursuant to Title I Sec. 3(4)(E)(i)(I) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(4)(E)(i)(I). To protect the workplace from the highly contagious coronavirus all disability applicants are required to treat the coronavirus with these safe and effective medicines pursuant to Title I Sec. 103(b) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12113(b)

a. A drop of essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint is topically applied with asquirt bottle or index finger to the upper lip and exterior, and/or interior, of the nose. Essential oils can also be administered in cleansers, soap, spray bottle, or in humidifiers to sterilize airspace, doorways, classrooms. Public restrooms need help to be reopened with soaps and cleansers containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint. Washing the nose, face, hands and chest with soaps, provided in all public restrooms, containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint, may be the social solutionto the COVID-19 pandemic. Lysol, active ingredient eucalyptol, has been specially recommended as an environmental cleanser by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

b. Corticosteroids are the definitive medical treatment for coronavirus and mold allergies.Cushing's disease is a non-life-threatening side-effect of excessive life-saving corticosteroid use, its symptoms are fragile bones and puffy cheeks, and may a be a lead culprit in the high rates of total knee and hip replacement surgeries in industrialized nations. The non-prescription of corticosteroid inhalers to first time asthma patients is

357

certain to be a leading cause of the dramatic rise in asthma and allergy patients over the past few decades.

c. Hydrocortisone crème is a corticosteroid that is available over-the-counter, for as little as a dollar a tube. When a dab is applied topically to the exterior of the nose, hydrocortisone creme instantly cures coronavirus and allergic rhinitis due to mold. A dabof hydrocortisone crème can also be applied to the chest to treat the potentially lethal fluid filled lungs exhibited in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) from coronavirus, the carcinogenic lung nodules of pulmonary aspergillosis and the coronavirus and mold triggers of asthma attacks for as fast a cure as a rescue inhaler and lower-cost and lower-risk of Cushing’s disease or potentially lethal malicious mold contamination than oral, intranasal, inhaled or intravenous corticosteroids.

d. Because malicious monoclonal antibody to the spine contamination of disability questionnaires mailed by local SSA offices have been witnessed interstate, an Epsom salt bath, saline solution, chlorine or salt water pool or ocean swim is prescribed to treat methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). To prevent rampant B&E SSA shall stop entering addresses in the social security number indexed profiles pursuant to Art. 28 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949).

e. To help prevent cardiopulmonary disease, diabetes, cancer and pass the Army Weight for Height Chart, sedentary beneficiaries are prescribed a minimum of 50 crunches, 50 push-ups, 40 age adjusted, and three mile run for all, everyday pursuant to the Marine Corp Physical Fitness Test (PFT). Cripples need equivalent calorie burning alternative, e.g. manual wheel chair that doesn’t tip over backward when crossing the street to the Federal Wilderness Area pursuant to Sec. 507 of the Americans with Disabilities Act under 42USC§12207.

§114 Message of the Public Trustee

A. The Social Security Act established the Board of Trustees to oversee the financial operations of the OASI and DI Trust Funds pursuant to Sec. 201(c) of the Social SecurityAct under 42USC§401(c). The Board is composed of six members. Four members serve by virtue of their positions in the Federal Government: the Secretary of the Treasury, whois the Managing Trustee; the Secretary of Labor; the Secretary of Health and Human Services; and the Commissioner of Social Security. The President appoints and the Senate confirms the other two members to serve as public trustees. These two positions are currently vacant. The Deputy Commissioner of the Social Security Administration serves as Secretary of the Board. Hospitals & Asylums (HA) petitions to sign one of two vacant Public Trustee positions for a doubling of disability benefit to $2,000 a month (2020) tax free and pay back student loans in full under 24USC§422(d)(1). To not be played for a fool, the 2021 Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Old Age Survivor Trust Fund and the Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund and 2021 Annual Report of the Supplemental Security Insurance Program are to be consolidated under the final draft of this Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP)Act of 2020 and second Message of the Public Trustee of 2020, that may be immediately published independently to provide guidance regarding SSA's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, pursuant to amendment of the due date of the Annual Report from April 1 to

358

June 20-21, the summer solstice, in Sec. 201(c)(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(c)(2) and Sec. 1161 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1320c-10. Regardless of the delay in 2020 treating the COVID-19 pandemic, budget cuts and hiking 1,000 miles to the Tubercular Hospital at Fort Bayard to get Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender and Peppermint (HELP) under 24USC§19. The federal budget and final devaluation estimate shall be done by the end of the High Sierras. Important supplemental appropriations, other than disability program response to the COVID-19 pandemic, were submitted before the July 16 deadline under 31USC§1106. A balance must be made available to the cover the disability benefits needed as the result of the expiration of the pandemic compensation program on July 31 pursuant to the Ant-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502. Congress has only to resolve to repeal the Adjustment to the Contribution Base in Sec. 230 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§430.

1. The 2020 Annual Report did not take into consideration the low revenues and high costs of the COVID-19 pandemic and the hypothetical lucky numbers for the combined OASDI trust funds for 2020 must be overruled. Provided, the US dollar is devaluated and excessive withdrawal from the stock exchange is averted, a six percent increase in payroll taxes revenues is estimated for 2021 after a low in 2020, the brief six month economic depression caused by COVID-19 would be over and the recovery would be in full swing, but the economy is not expected grow past its 2019 level until 2022. The tax rate is adjusted to afford the low and intermediate cost alternative. The intermediate cost alternative requires the tax on the rich and state employees to be distributed between the three OASI, DI and new SSI Trust Funds. SSA must take care not to authorize too little or too many beneficiaries in the five months remaining in 2020 than they can afford in 2021 with the 33% increase from the tax on the rich and state employees, whereas benefits shall not terminate until earning a substantial gainful income for nine months.. Because the high cost scenario, where all unemployment beneficiaries get disability, is obviously more than the tax on the rich and state employees can afford, and it is not an option.

2. Six months since beginning in February, the COVID-19 pandemic has officially caused an economic depression. The COVID-19 pandemic is significantly more severe of an economic depression than the inaptly named Great Recession (2009-2011) and the economic collapse is said to be the most severe since the Great Depression. The UN has estimated a 10% decrease in the economy from the previous year, but it may be worse. 32 million unemployment compensation beneficiaries constitute 18% of the total workforce, significantly more than the 10% to 12% official unemployment rate. The European Union has declared as much as a 30% economic decline for a third the cost of the Relief Acts that have sustained retail sales in the United States, but the payroll tax is certain to be devastated. Due to the severity of the economic collapse -10% decline in payroll taxes from 2019 to 2020 is estimated although the pandemic is likely to barely last six months, at the cusp of economic depression, now that the Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) Act has arrived just before the 2020-2021 school year to prevent a flood of snot nosed child deaths and recommendation for home schooling. In 2021 and 2022 a six percent increase in payroll taxes is conservatively estimated from pandemic lows in 2020. State quarantines have shut down certain industries for too long, causing small businesses to go bankrupt from lapse in payment, and the high-cost of Relief Acts has withdrawn and threatens to withdraw even more

359

investment funds from the stock exchange, if the dollar is not devaluated by October, 1, 2020 pursuant to the Marshall Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421 and 22USC§5301.

3. The message of the public trustee requires study of the prior year and a five year projection into the future pursuant to Sec. 201(c)(2) of the Social Security act under 42USC§401(c)(2). To describe the entire operations of the Social Security Administration (SSA), including the total operations of both OASDI Trust Funds and SSIProgram, and optimally adjust the tax rates, it is necessary to devise a new type of table with five rows per year – SSI, OASDI, DI and OASI, and SSA total with tax rates as applicable, reduced to four rows OASI, DI, SSI and SSA in 2021 when the rich and state employees are taxed. Inflation expectations during, after and before the COVID-19 pandemic are -10% decline in payroll tax revenues 2019-2020, 9 million new DI beneficiaries 2020-2021, one million new SSI beneficiaries 2021-2022, 6% payroll tax revenue growth 2020-2021 and beyond, 33% increase in payroll tax revenues when the rich and state employees are taxed, 4% DI, 5.5% OASI, 3% administrative spending and tax on benefits, 3.4% DI bonds, 3% OASI bonds and 3% cost-of-living adjustment pursuant to 2.7% average annual consumer price index (CPI) inflation since 1980, 2.2% since 2000 with suspected underestimation since 2010 in Sec. 215(i) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§415(i). When there are different projections for the same year, the year shall be repeated with indication differentiating alternative scenarios, beginning with the official, final or intermediate projections of the most recent Annual Reports. The six year table is somewhat long and difficult to compare with other years, but is necessary to prove governing OASDI tax rate decisions. Review of alternative scenarios should be isolated on an annual basis. Due to the dynamic changes to revenues and expenditures as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic, all estimates are extremely hypothetical and certain to be revised in the aftermath, however the following estimates should provide accurate guidance to benefit administrators regarding the balance available pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502.

4. The responsibility to pay COVID-19 pandemic disabled workers and their families looms large. The DI Trust Fund may not neglect to pay benefits to as many as 8 million applicants from the pandemic compensation program that terminated July 31 and 24 million extended state unemployment compensation that terminates January 1, 2021 and their families who qualify on the basis of being out of work due to the COVID-19 pandemic pursuant to Sec. 223 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§423 and Sec. 3(2) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(2). Although the pandemic has prioritized the DI Trust Fund for disabled workers who have contributed 40 credits over child SSI benefits to end child poverty by 2020, COVID-19 has strengthened resolve to close the payroll tax loophole for the rich and state employeeson January 1, 2021 by repealing Sec. 230 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§430. The tax on the rich and state employees, beginning January 1, 2021 can only afford to pay a third, 9 million benefits, the intermediate cost, out of 32 million receiving pandemic compensation from March 1 to July 31 the high cost, that is not affordable and therefore estimates are not bothered with. There is no other way to afford benefits that last until after nine months of substantial gainful employment unless the rich are taxed There shall be no denying that being out of work due to the COVID-19 pandemic is a disability. SSA must fully funded with $7 billion from OASDI to immediately begin paying benefits to one million disabled workers in 2020 and another million in 2021 when the extended unemployment compensation expires. Congress must pass the tax for SSA to afford to pay as many as a third of pandemic compensation claims and slightly increase total SSI program spending from $62 billion in 2020 to $70 billion in 2021 (Revelation 13:10). It is assumed that the slight OASI overestimate is right for once, the lion's share of the tax will go to the DI Trust Fund to pay for COVID-19 pandemic disabled workers and their families, the remainder, including prospective return to work of disabled workers after the economy has recovered from COVID-19 pandemic, shall goto the new SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2024 with and all poverty by 2030. Therefore 2023-2024 DI benefit spending growth is scheduled at 3.5% to express a modest decline in DI population from from 1% to 0.5%, and SSI benefit spending growthis estimated at 4.5% to express 1.5% population growth, with a 3% COLA remaining constant. It may seem alarming that the OASI and combined trust fund ratio are estimated to decline because benefit spending grows faster than assets, however recovery revenue projections are conservatively estimated and should be higher than 6% annual growth, the OASI trust fund ratio is greater than 100, the DI and SSI trust fund ratios enjoy healthy growth towards the goal of 100, and with the tax on the rich are expected topass the long-term test of adequacy whereas the income floor shall be finished before anydeficits, OASI or combined trust fund ratios less than 100 or depletions occur.

5. The Board of Trustees owes the DI Trust Fund an estimated $217 billion (2020) compensation, including 2.5% interest, owed by the OASI Trust Fund as the result of the inability of the Board of Trustees to adjust the OASDI tax rates to make reasonable accommodation for the high incidence of disability of the Baby Boomers during the Great Recession 2009-2015 and in 2019 pursuant to Sec. 201(l) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(l). The 2.37% DI tax of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 helped the DI Trust Fund recover an estimated $69 billion from $224 billion in economic damages, plus 2.5% annual interest to $240.4 billion, as if the OASDI tax rate had been adjusted right to accommodate the age of high rate of disability of the Baby Boomer generation, that nearly nearly depleted the fund 2009-2015, reducing credit from this episode to $184.3 billion including interest through 2018. In 2018, its final year of operation, the 2.37% DI tax rate incurred an unnecessary OASI deficit and should have been reduced to 2.04% (2018) to better protect the OASI Trust Fund, reducing the DI Trust Fund from a high of $95.2 billion to $71.9 billion at year end 2018, raising the money owed the DI Trust Fund by $23.3 billion to $207.6 billion, wherefore this option is available to Congress only if they tax the rich and state employees, and settle on the right way to adjust the contribution base in a timely fashion. Because it affects the undercapitalized DI Trust Fund the difference between the alternative 1.9% and 1.8% DI tax rate in 2019 adds to $4 billion, to the balance owed the DI Trust Fund - $211.6 billion, $216.9 billion with interest in 2020. Provided, the tax rate adjustments and tax onthe rich and state employees contained in this 2020 Message of the Public Trustee are adopted the OASI trust fund should not accumulate any more liability to the DI trust funddue to overt discrimination against disability and covert threat to OASI trust fund due to the evident inability of the Board of Trustees to adjust the tax rates since 2000 as occurred in 2018. Provided, reasonable accommodation is made for 4% disability spending growth, comprised of 1% population growth and 3% COLA, any positive asset accumulation of the DI Trust Fund balance shall be credited towards the payment of this debt accumulating 2.5% interest annually. Because the SSI program is not a part of this calculation, it is excluded from the following table to reduce paperwork.

Congress is highly advised to adjust the OASDI payroll tax rate to the full extent needed to prevent a deficit in the highly depleted and inadequate DI Trust Fund by amending Sec. 201(b)(1)&(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1)(&(2). The OASI Trust Fund would receive credit on paying back their welfare fraud loan to DI Trust Fund, with the difference between the 1.8% and 2.06% low or 2.3% high cost COVID-19 pandemic projection for 2020 pursuant to Sec. 201(l) of the Social Security Act under 42USC401(l). For the low-cost COVID-19 scenario (b)(1)(&(2) would be amended by appending (U) 2.06 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2021. $22.9 billion would be reduced from the debt owed DI to $170.1 billion. Or if they vote to pay the intermediate projection for as many as half pandemic compensation beneficiaries upon expiration by taxing the rich and state employees to reduce the DI debt by $40.2 billion reducing the DI debt to $152.8 billion (U) 2.3 per

367

centum of wages paid after December 31, 2019 and before January 1, 2021 and (V) 2.75 per centum of wages (including the tax on the rich and state employees) paid after December 31, 2020 and before January 1, 2025.

7. To conclusively pay back the loan from the DI Trust Fund in full, for the incompetenceof the Board of Trustees to properly adjust the OASDI tax rates during the Great Recession, by lawfully transferring funds from the OASI Trust Fund to the DI Trust Fund, now that the final results are known, it is advised to amend that section at common paragraphs Sec. 201(b)(1)&(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1)(&(2) beginning with (R) 1.80 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 1999, and before January 1, 2009, and so reported. (S) 2.03 per centum of the wages/self-employment income paid after December 31, 2008, and before January 1, 2010, and so reported, (T) 2.35 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2009 and before January 1, 2011, (U) 2.36 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2010 and before January 1, 2012, (V) 2.39 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2011 and before January 1, 2013, (W) 2.45 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2012 and before January 1, 2014, (X) 2.31 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2013 and before January 1, 2015. (Y) 2.24 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2014 and before January 1, 2015. (Z) 2.37 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 2015, and before January 1, 2018. (AA) 2.04 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2019. (AB) 1.9 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2018 and before January 1, 2020. (AC) 2.06 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2021, in the low-cost COVID-19 scenario. or (AC) 2.3 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2019 and before January 1, 2021, in the intermediate COVID-19 scenario. (AD) 2.75 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2020 and before January 1, 2025, including the tax on the rich and state employees.

B. SSA population statistics are helpful, often the best provided by the United States, but they are problematic and there are a number of errors and omissions open to comment. The decline in covered workers due to the Great Recession and COVID-19 pandemic, theundercounting of the under age 18 population conspiracy with the Census bureau destroying the population pyramid in 2014, significantly higher area population than Census Bureau, the habitual slight overestimate of current year and future OASI beneficiaries causing spending overestimates to be projected to long-term failure, outrightdiscrimination against disability beneficiary population growth since 2013, and the historical revision of immigration statistics to imply the big deportation occurred in 2016 and lays down a new unlawfully reduced quota for lawful permanent residents. The Census Bureau in general is no longer a reliable statistical source, mostly due the termination of the Annual Statistical Compendia program October 1, 2011, American Factfinder July 1, 2019 data.census.gov will be the primary source of all new Census Bureau data, including upcoming releases from the 2018 American Community Survey, 2017 Economic Census, 2020 Census and more. The Census does not maintain country by country US international trade statistics anymore. Customs does not maintain official immigration statistics and the Annual OASDI Trustees Report is the most reliable source of immigration statistics. A big problem seems to be that “trade war” and discrimination against nationality in general is typically used to cover up the robbery of domestic benefitprograms by undercover operations of the customs service. For example food stamp cuts are being saved by the Commodity Credit Corporation under auspice of unpaid trade war

368

damage compensation. Extraordinarily high, counterfeit customs revenue declarations over the past two years, ostensibly from high tariffs that tend to decrease international trade volume, but without explanation, but is actually believed to be a fraudulent accounting of withholding of tax on wages of aliens under 26USC§1441 that needs to be repealed. The Treasury has emphasized that these taxes paid by aliens are assigned to payroll tax and individual income tax and are immune from legal process pursuant to Sec.207 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§407. Net immigration and birth statistics are inextricably linked to population growth that is being underestimated by the Census and SSA is vulnerable to conspiracy against rights under 18USC§242 due to deprivation of relief under 18USC§246 and failure to pay legal child support obligations under 18USC§228. For international statistical purposes and social security number estimates, and the sale of regular priced identification documents, e.g. US Passport indicating that a person is stateless, it is important that the United States declare total net immigration, uphold the Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness (1961) and sell US passports and identification documents at regular price pursuant to common articles 26-29 of the Conventions Relative to the Status of Refugees and Stateless Persons (1951)(1954).

1. There was an unexplained 2% difference between 324 million Census and 328 million,downwardly revised from 330 million, Social Security Administration total area population, that includes U.S. armed service members deployed overseas estimates for 2016. The difference in regards to the under age 18 population is even larger, 5%, between 74.1 million and 77.8 million respectively in 2016. The hypocrisy is that SSA reports 74.9 million Baby Boomers were born 1946-64. The Census has clearly discriminated with the 22.9% under age 18 revision in 2015 that destroyed the populationpyramid and must return to a number closer to the 24% under age 18 used in the 2010 Census after conducting the 2020 Census or will be liable for age discrimination. 77.8 million under age 18 is 23.7% of the 328 million SSA area population in 2016. Excluding Trump who is probably too xenophobic to give people born in the United States of foreign parents citizenship, the birth rate tends to fluctuate above 4 million during Republican administrations and below 4 million during Democratic administrations, with a high birth rate in 2007. Having added up the 1998-2018 cohort births reported by SSA, the 2020 Annual Report is in error, and admits to be estimating from 2017, to report a decline to 84,477,000 under age 20 although total births for this cohort is 84,973,865 in 2018, the last year for which births can be added with readily available online SSA birth statistics.

2. The nation's total fertility rate hit a high of an average of nearly 3.8 children born to each woman in the United States in 1957 during the postwar Baby Boom. The birthrate fell sharply through the 1960s and 1970s with the introduction of the birth control pill, legalization of abortion and other trends, including women delaying childbearing to attend college and pursue a career. The rate dipped below replacement level in 1972 and hit a low of 1.7 in 1976, but it started rising again in the late 1970s, climbed steadily through the 1980s, hovering close to but never hitting the replacement rate throughout the'90s and reaching 2.2 in 2000-2010 before going down to 1.8 or 1.9 in 2011-present. TheUnited States has the highest birth rate (12.5 per 1,000 population), infant mortality rate (6.1 infant deaths per 1,000 live births and 8 under age 5 deaths per 1,000 ) and maternal mortality rate (32 deaths per 100,000) of any industrialized nation. Net population growth is bolstered by net migrants. The 2020 Annual Report historically revised immigration statistics to express a huge deportation in 2016 and propose a repressive newreduction in the quota of legal immigrants in 2019 and is not very credible except in comparison with the statistical omissions of US Customs who likes to play around with drugs in the evidence room and try to deport allegedly criminal aliens without federal trial. Having checked the math SSA is assumed to be succumbing to the peer pressure of the Census Bureau to underestimate total population, births, and under age 20 population,and Customs immigration statistics to the detriment of the ability to do math. Total population is lower than mathematically correct. Although the number of deaths increases, as a percentage of the growing population the death rate is declining. SSA musttake care that all children born in the United States are issued a unique social security number, regardless of the nationality of their parents pursuant to the Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness (1961).

3. Omission of the covered worker and total area population statistics for 2009 and 2010 may seem as random as the three reports that must be checked to get the numbers, but theprecipitous -5 million, -3% decline in covered workers 2008-2009 is important to note while making preliminary estimates of a -24 million, -13.5% decline in workforce from the COVID-19 pandemic. During the Great Recession, that was much less severe than the current economic depression caused by the coronavirus, that is the most severe economic downturn since the Great Depression in the 1930s, covered workers decreased by an estimated 5 million, -3%, from 162.9 million in 2008 to 157.9 million in 2009, and by 818,000, -0.5%, from 157.9 million in 2009 to 157,059 in 2010, before slowly recovering at a rate of 0.9% in 2011. Usually the workforce grows at a rate of 1.3%

370

annually. It is fair to assume that for the duration of 2020 the workforce shall decrease by nearly 32 million pandemic compensation beneficiaries, less those somehow working no more than 32 hours a week and collecting benefits, and those who are re-employed. Recent reports indicate that 21 million people were unemployed and 9 million have regained employment. Of the 12 million unemployed persons, maybe 2 million will find work, but COVID-19 outbreaks and business closures continue. It is therefore estimated that there will be 10 million fewer covered workers in 2020 than 2019, a -5.6% decline to 167.9 million. Provided that the high-cost of the Relief Acts is paid for by devaluationbefore October 1, 2020 there should be no further large withdrawals from the stock market and the economy will stabilize. However, once jobs are lost, it takes time to recover, at 1.3% average annual growth, the number of covered workers are not expected to recover to 2019 levels until 2025. Payroll tax revenues will take so long to recover that it is absolutely necessary that social security tax the rich and state employees so that there will be a balance available to pay scheduled benefits, including COVID-19 disabledworkers and their families pursuant to Anti-deficiency act of 1982 under 31USC§1502.

4. Before the 2020 Annual Report, the only detected error in usual SSA population statistics was a perennial overestimate of 2.4% annual OASI population growth to justify stochastic projections of an OASI deficit. The slight, nearly 2.5% overestimate of 55.5 million OASI beneficiaries in the 2020 Annual Report is believed to be an accurate description of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the OASI population. The OASI program is much larger than the disability programs and can absorb the surge in beneficiaries without being disturbed. Retirement age people tend to have more savings, other investments, and more reliable work if they continue working beyond the minimumretirement age of 62, in part because they, and not other workers under the age of 40 are protected against forced retirement by the Age Discrimination Act under 42USC§6101 etseq. People between the ages of 62 and 70 ½ capable of earning a substantial gainful income are not likely to want to retire because they can earn higher benefits if they continuing contributing to age 70 ½. Total DI beneficiaries in current payment status increased 5% in 2010, 4.2% in 2011, 2.6% in 2012, 0% in 2013. Since 2014 the DI population has steadily declined due to the retirement of the Baby Boomers and unlawful toxic deterrent -0.5% in 2014, -1.1% in 2015, -1.8% in 2016, -1.9% in 2017, -0.5% in 2018. The precipitous decline -4.2% in 2019 on page 141 and – 2.2% on page 62 and -9.3% 2020 projection on page 141 and –1.9% on page 62 of the 2020 Annual Report are not certain, seem to be mostly accounting error and will have to be officially reviewed before the 2021 Annual Report. Berryhill’s -4.2% DI beneficiary population reduction is attributed to the effectiveness of the Ticket to Work Program pursuant to Biestek v. Berryhill, Commissioner of Social Security No. 17-1184 (2019). Saul’s projected -9.2% reduction does not take into consideration the COVID-19 pandemic and attempts to rely on torture and terrorism finance to evade claims for compensation. There is obviously too much incentive for them to reduce the disability population to produce consistent and accurate statistics regarding the disabled population. The pre-COVID-19 finding is an abusively coerced -2.2% (2019) and attempted -1.9% (2020) DI population reduction.

5. To better account for disability beneficiaries the Board of Trustees is advised to produce detailed tables of applications, incidence and termination, by age as is done in three separate tables in the Annual Report of the SSI Program or in one table of applications, beneficiaries in current payment status and terminations pursuant to Art. 31 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2007). For failing to adjust the OASDI tax rate and mostly discriminatorily scheming to reduce the disabled population, to the detriment of statistical accuracy, the Board of Trustees must be charged

372

with discrimination against disability. The term “discriminate against a qualified individual on the basis of disability” includes— utilizing standards, criteria, or methods of administration that have the effect of discrimination on the basis of disability; or that perpetuate the discrimination of others who are subject to common administrative controlin Title I Sec. 102 of the ADA under 42USC§12112(b)(3)(A)(B). The Treasury is obligated to protect the Government and individuals from fraud and loss, that apply to anyone who may receive for the Government, Treasury notes, United States notes, or other Government securities; or be engaged or employed in preparing and issuing those notes or securities under 31USC§321(a)(5). The Board of Trustees is obligated to provide balance available for the usual disabled workers and those disabled by the COVID-19 pandemic pursuant to the Anti-Deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502.

6. Child SSI benefits were initially intended to end child by poverty by 2020 by taxing the rich and state employees. The COVID-19 pandemic has shifted the immediate priority to providing for COVID-19 disabled workers and their families. However, as these people earn a substantial gainful income and DI spending decreases, revenues for the SSI program shall be augmented to end child poverty by 2024 and create an income floor to end all poverty by 2030. SSA child population statistics are believed to suffer a conspiracy with US Census Bureau due to child welfare fraud that has destroyed the population pyramid due to an unjustified reduction of child population estimates from 24% of the population in 2010 to the impossibly low rate of 22.7% in 2014 under 18USC§242. The child population underestimates and destruction of the population pyramid may be attributed to declining birth rates, but is actually believed to be a welfarefraud perpetuating the 10 million child benefit cut failure to pay legal child support obligations from the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) of 1996 under 18USC§246 and §228. Only people over the age of 40 are protected against wrongful dismissal pursuant to the Age Discrimination Act under 42USC§6101 et seq. Child development, labor and other laws clearly indicate that childhood is a “disability” insofar that child development is a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, such as caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, seeing, hearing, eating, sleeping, walking, standing, lifting, bending, speaking, breathing, learning, reading, concentrating, thinking, communicating, and working pursuant to Sec. 3(2) of the Americans with Disabilities Act(ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(2). The best interest of the child is represented by Art. 7 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2007). Every child has the right to benefit from social security, including social insurance. The benefits should, where appropriate, be granted, taking into account the resources and the circumstances of the child and persons having responsibility for the maintenance of the child, as well as any other consideration relevant to an application for benefits made by oron behalf of the child under Art. 26(1)(& (2) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1990). To properly respect the right of children to an SSI benefit it is necessary to make orphan a qualifying disability. To compensate insulin dependent diabetics and negotiate arebate for astronomical hyperinflation of insulin prices over the past two decades, it is necessary for Medicaid to pay for all insulin prescriptions, regardless of the ability of the patient, their family or health insurance policy to pay pursuant to Sec. 1927 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1396r-8(3).

7. From a uniform poverty rate of 15% in 1996 the poverty rate in the United States is now segregated 9% elderly, 10% working age and 20% child poverty. The additional perchild cost is more than a full-time and part-time minimum wage worker can afford. Not to be overruled by statistical propaganda and undercounting, the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) must be ruled a crime of genocidewhereas the destruction of or denial of access to food, shelter and other essentials of life, all with the intent to destroy the…group, in whole or in part, pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. The disability program was initially bribed with an augmented 1.88% DI tax rate, but it was not sufficiently used for child benefits to sustain child welfare or the tax rate pursuant to Sullivan v. Zebley, 110 S.Ct. 885 (1990). The subsequent inability to adjust the 1.8% DI tax rate since 2000 has resulted in SSA being charged with discrimination against disability. The Commissioner is reprimanded for citing the PRWORA as justification for the Annual Report of the SSI Program. In 1996, 15% of children were poor, about average for any American. From 1990 to 2000 the high school completion rate declined in all but seven states and the true child poverty rate increased from 15% to 20%. In 2014, 21% (15.5 million) of all 77 million U.S. children ages 0–17 were reported to live in poverty. Subsequently, the child poverty rate went down somewhat to 18.3% in 2017, but is believed to be higher than ever due to COVID-19 pandemic unemployment. Overall, the poverty rate was much

375

higher for Black, non-Hispanic and Hispanic children than for White, non-Hispanic children. Some 12% of White, non-Hispanic children lived in poverty, compared with 37% of Black, non-Hispanic children and 32% of Hispanic children. In 2014, children in married-couple families were much less likely to be living in poverty than children living in female-householder families (no spouse present). About 11% of children in married-couple families were living in poverty, compared with 46% in female-householder families. The experience in the United and developing nations is that children living in poverty are vulnerable to environmental, educational, health, and safety risks. Compared with their peers, children living in poverty, especially young children, are more likely to have cognitive, behavioral, and socio-emotional difficulties. Additionally, throughout their lifetimes, they are more likely to complete fewer years of school and experience more years of unemployment. In developing countries malnourished children often die from wasting, or suffer permanent stunting and permanent intellectual disability.

Source: Annual Estimates of the Resident Population by Sex, Race, and Hispanic Origin for the United States, States, and Counties: April 1, 2010 to July 1, 2017. U.S. Census Bureau, Population Division. June 2018. Three Tables combined and % calculated – (1) Total; (2) Non-Hispanic – white, black, Asian, Pacific Islanders, two or more races; (3) Hispanic – Latino - Total % within 0.2% of 100

8. It is important to note that in 2017 60.7% of the population was white, 18.1% Latino, 12.5% black, 0.7% Native American, 5.7% Asian, 0.2 Pacific Islander and 2.1% Two or more races. US Census Bureau racial statistics are not immediately useful because they use a discriminatory and duplicitous method of accounting for Hispanic ethnicity that destroys the mathematical integrity and ability of the reader to swiftly say what percent ofUS residents are by race, because every race is arbitrarily divided against strange Hispanic ethnicity statistics. To redress this very severe discrimination in US Census bureau racial statistics, by virtue of Hispanic ethnicity, Census data must prohibit the duplicitous Hispanic ethnicity method of accounting for race, and distinguish race – white, Latino, African American black, Native American, Asian, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander and two or more races under Art. 20 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1978) and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 under 42USC§2000d et seq. SSA population statistics have never produced an accurate study of beneficiaries by race. One of the primary reasons for African-Americans having the highest, 14.7% unemployment rate is there are no accurate racial statistics, and it is believed that blacks in particular, but also Native Americans, and other races are not awarded disability benefits on an equal basis with whites, due to discriminatory differences in medical diagnosis of idiopathic disorders, particularly of mental illness by state mental institutions without criminal charges, and overt discrimination by SSA decision-makers and statisticians. Great care must be taken to ensure that the payment of benefits to COVID-19 disabled workers and their families is fairly distributed to African-Americans and other minorities. Taking into consideration that they are more likely to bedestitute, there should be a slight +/- 5% statistical preference for black and other racial minority beneficiaries in the administration of pandemic compensation and the proceeds of the tax on the rich and state employees. It is hoped that the African-American unemployment rate will go down if they are awarded disability benefits on an equal basis.SSA must make an effort to improve their disability statistics by race to ensure equitable distribution of benefits without racial discrimination pursuant to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 under 42USC§2000d.

9. The final statistical dispute sustains a 3% COLA for low-income beneficiaries, to enable them to not be poor in the future, although income from SSI is currently less than

378

the poverty line, and the social security program cannot currently afford a poverty line benefit for non-contributors, even with 33% more revenues from a tax on the rich and state employees. Sustainable Development Goal 1 to end poverty by 2030 and the spate of low-income social security beneficiaries becoming unable to pay their bills due to theirbenefits not competing with inflation, to the point that Medicare now reduces premiums cost for low income beneficiaries, has driven home the point that the maximum SSI benefits is not adequate to raise a person out of poverty and it is a serious problem that poor beneficiaries become poorer because benefit purchasing power decreases annually, especially in relation with rent increases. Homelessness, however holy, profitable, healthy and adventurous for most beneficiaries, without crippling disabilities, to camp forfree, is not a viable option for families with children. To fulfill the goal of raising all United States citizens out of poverty by 2030 by taxing the rich and state employees, it is necessary for SSA to re-evaluate the relationship of the Cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) with consumer price index (CPI) inflation estimates pursuant to Sec. 215(i) under the Social Security Act under 42USC§415(i). Since 2000 average consumer price inflation for the urban consumer has been 2.2%, this is less than 2.7% average inflation since 1980. However there is concern that since the $674 (2009-11) SSI benefit there hasbeen a conspiracy between SSA and the Bureau of Labor Statistics with the objective of producing low CPI inflation numbers in order to sip from the COLA to reduce costs and evade inevitable taxation of the rich and state employees. Low-income beneficiaries don't want high inflation either, however they need a COLA that grows significantly faster than inflation, if they are to not be poor at some time in the future and the US is to achieve the elimination of poverty by 2030. The Annual Report admits, originally determined as 2.4% based on CPIs published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, pursuant to Public Law 106-554, the COLA is effectively now 2.5%. The threatened reduction of the Commissioner's six year term in half as punishment for the 1.6% COLA stands to impress on him that he must minimally provide beneficiaries a 2.4% COLA and those with incomes below the poverty line, e.g. SSI a 3% COLA despite the extremely low 0.6% CPI inflation estimated for 2020.

States Parties shall recognize for every child the right to benefit from social security, including social insurance, and shall take the necessary measures to achieve the full realization of this right in accordance with their national law. The benefits should, where appropriate, be granted, taking into account the resources and the circumstances of the child and persons having responsibility for the maintenance of the child, as well as any other consideration relevant to an application forbenefits made by or on behalf of the child under Art. 26 (1)(&(2) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1990). Persons with disabilities have the right to an adequate

Be it enacted in the House and Senate assembled

Part I Revenues

§116 Sec. 1 Devaluation

1. To prevent economic collapse in 2021 from the sale of t-bonds and special issue bonds from the extraordinarily expensive Relief Acts in 2020, the Secretary of the Treasury shall cover the one-time cost of the COVID-19 pandemic relief acts and fiscal year 2020 federal deficit by devaluating of the US dollar, by an exact amount to be determined before the new fiscal year, October, 1, 2020 pursuant to the Marshal Lerner Condition under 19USC§4421, 22USC§5301 et seq. and 2020 Revised estimates: effect of changes in rates of exchange and inflation Report of the Secretary-General A/74/585 of 11 December 2019.

2. There is significantly more unemployment and business closures due to the COVID-19pandemic than occurred during the Great Recession. The pandemic is believed to be the largest economic contraction since the Great Depression. The United Nations estimates a10 percent economic decline from the previous year, for the entire year. Due to the severity of the contraction in the United States, this is believed to hold true, even though the pandemic should immediately end just after passing the six month threshold of economic depression, with this prescription for HELP to cure coronavirus. The expensive relief Acts have sustained retail sales that may keep gross domestic product (GDP) growth at 0 to -3%, enabling a full economic recovery as early as 2021 or 2022. However, payroll and individual income taxes are estimated to decline 10% from the 2019. Provided the pandemic is treated with HELP and the dollar is devaluated to prevent bond sales from making huge withdrawals from the stock exchange, from the

382

2020 low, employment can only be expected to increase 1.3%, GDP not more than 3% and payroll and individual income taxes 6% annually, delaying full recovery until 2022.

§117 Sec. 2 Closure of tax loopholes for rich, state employees and energy exports

1. Adjustment to the Contribution Base codified in Sec. 230 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§430 shall be repealed. The payroll tax loophole for the rich and state employees shall be entirely closed, without any reservations, beginning January 1, 2021 to enable the Social Security Administration (SSA) to pay for the benefits of workers disabled by the COVID-19 pandemic, end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030.Closing the loophole should generate a 33 percent increase in payroll tax revenues. This should be enough to pay one-third of 32 million pandemic compensation beneficiaries, create an SSI Trust Fund and make progress on child SSI benefits in 2021.

2. To afford UN arrears and the recosting of $3.6 billion Certain Iranian Assets (2019) with 100% interest after 40 years of 2.5% inflation since 1980 - $8 billion FY20; the one tax limit in 26USC§4612(b) shall be amended- In addition, there is imposed a flat 5% energy export tax (feet).

Part II Pandemic Social Security Benefits

§118 Sec. 3 Supplemental Security Income Trust Fund

Trust Funds at Sec. 201(b) of the Social Security Act under 42USC401(b) shall be amended by inserting (3) Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Trust Fund. There is created in the Treasury, to relieve the General Fund from obligation therefore, an SSI Trust Fund to end child poverty by 2024 and all poverty by 2030 pursuant to Sec. 1611 ofTitle XVI of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1382 et seq. There is hereby preliminarily appropriated to the SSI Trust Fund for the calendar year beginning January 1, 2021, and each year thereafter, for exact amendment by subsequent final reports if needed, amounts equivalent to 100 per centum of— (A) 0.7 per centum of wages and self-employment income paid after December 31, 2020 and before January 1, 2024. (B) 0.75 per centum of wages and self-employment income paid after December 31, 2023 and so reported, which wages and self-employment income shall be certified on the basis of the records maintained by the Commissioner.

§119 Sec. 4 COVID-19 Disabled Workers

1. COVID-19 disabled workers are advised to use Social Security Online before their worker privilege expires. There is no denying that COVID-19 is a disability and that people out of work. COVID-19 disabled workers shall be entitled to disability benefits when their unemployment compensation expires. Due to the economic damage caused byState ordered shutdowns of certain small businesses and the high cost of relief acts to the stock exchange, COVID-19 disabled workers shall be eligible based on need and the certification of their participation in the pandemic compensation by the Secretary of Labor pursuant to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 under 29USC§794a.

2. The determination of whether an impairment substantially limits a major life activity, e.g. work, shall be made without regard to the ameliorative effects of mitigating measures

383

such as curative medicine pursuant to Sec. 3(4)(E)(i)(I) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(4)(E)(i)(I). Disabled workers must be informed to treat themselves and their prospective workplaces with hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) whereas the term “qualification standards” may include a requirement that an individual shall not pose a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals in the workplace in Title I Sec. 103(b) of the ADA under 42USC§12113(b).

3. There is not enough money to automatically give a disability benefit to all 32 million, or even 8 million in 2020, pandemic unemployment compensation beneficiaries upon expiration. SSA is therefore directed to immediately provide reasonable accommodation for COVID-19 disabled workers with a balance available to pay for 1 million of 8 millionexpired pandemic compensation beneficiaries in 2020 and another 1 million when extended unemployment benefits expire on January 1, 2021. Congress shall afford benefits for more than a third of COVID-19 disabled workers and make progress providing child SSI benefits to all children growing in poverty, by taxing the rich and state employees to ensure there is a balance available for disability insurance pursuant to the Anti-deficiency act of 1982 under 31USC§1502. 3. To defend the public against contagious airborne disease and pollutants pursuant to Sec. 103(e) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) under 42USC§12113(e) is appended: (4) The Secretaries of Health and Human Services, and Environmental Protection Agency, (who lists only six air pollutants 2019), not later than January 1, 2021, shall review all airborne pollutants, infectious and communicable diseases of concern to respiratory health in the workplace and disseminate this information to the public, along with information on the best available medical treatment.

§120 Sec. 5 Ticket to Work

1. For the duration of the pandemic and its economic consequences, all disability applicants will be treated to the Ticket to Work program and the needy to benefits pursuant Biestek v. Berryhill No. 17-1184 (2009). The Ticket to Work program shall be fully funded to prescribe hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) toensure prospective workers and workplaces are medically treated and supported to negotiate with repressive States indiscriminately prohibiting their industries. All tickets to state vocational agencies issued by the Commissioner pursuant to the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Act of 1999 Sec. 1148(b)(1) of the Social Security Act under 42USC1320b-19(b)(1), funded $3,747,830,155 in 2020, with generous 2.7% inflation from 2015 pursuant to title I of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 under 29USC§720(b)(1) shall contain the following, exactly one blank page in size 12 Times New Roman font, prescription:

Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender and Peppermint (HELP)

a. The public must be informed that essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint aromatherapy is a non-toxic and non-allergenic cure for coronavirus and mold allergies. Due to widespread business closures and unemployment there is no denying that COVID-19 is a disability despite the availability of curative medicine pursuant to Title I Sec. 3(4)(E)(i)(I) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(4)

384

(E)(i)(I). To protect the workplace from the highly contagious coronavirus all disability applicants are required to treat the coronavirus with these safe and effective medicines pursuant to Title I Sec. 103(b) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12113(b)

a. A drop of essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint is topically applied with asquirt bottle or index finger to the upper lip and exterior, and/or interior, of the nose. Essential oils can also be administered in cleansers, soap, spray bottle, or in humidifiers to sterilize airspace, doorways, classrooms. Public restrooms need help to be reopened with soaps and cleansers containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint. Washing the nose, face, hands and chest with soaps, provided in all public restrooms, containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint, may be the social solutionto the COVID-19 pandemic. Lysol, active ingredient eucalyptol, has been specially recommended as an environmental cleanser by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

b. Corticosteroids are the definitive medical treatment for coronavirus and mold allergies.Cushing's disease is a non-life-threatening side-effect of excessive life-saving corticosteroid use, its symptoms are fragile bones and puffy cheeks, and may a be a lead culprit in the high rates of total knee and hip replacement surgeries in industrialized nations. The non-prescription of corticosteroid inhalers to first time asthma patients is certain to be a leading cause of the dramatic rise in asthma and allergy patients over the past few decades.

c. Hydrocortisone crème is a corticosteroid that is available over-the-counter, for as little as a dollar a tube. When a dab is applied topically to the exterior of the nose, hydrocortisone creme instantly cures coronavirus and allergic rhinitis due to mold. A dabof hydrocortisone crème can also be applied to the chest to treat the potentially lethal fluid filled lungs exhibited in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) from coronavirus, the carcinogenic lung nodules of pulmonary aspergillosis and the coronavirus and mold triggers of asthma attacks for as fast a cure as a rescue inhaler and lower-cost and lower-risk of Cushing’s disease or potentially lethal malicious mold contamination than oral, intranasal, inhaled or intravenous corticosteroids.

d. Because malicious monoclonal antibody to the spine contamination of disability questionnaires mailed by local SSA offices have been witnessed interstate, an Epsom salt bath, saline solution, chlorine or salt water pool or ocean swim is prescribed to treat methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). To prevent rampant B&E SSA shall stop entering addresses in the social security number indexed profiles pursuant to Art. 28 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949).

e. To help prevent cardiopulmonary disease, diabetes, cancer and pass the Army Weight for Height Chart, sedentary beneficiaries are prescribed a minimum of 50 crunches, 50 push-ups, 40 age adjusted, and three mile run for all, everyday pursuant to the Marine Corp Physical Fitness Test (PFT). Cripples need equivalent calorie burning alternative, e.g. manual wheel chair that doesn’t tip over backward when crossing the street to the Federal Wilderness Area pursuant to Sec. 507 of the Americans with Disabilities Act under 42USC§12207.

§121 Sec. 6 Tax Rate Adjustment Investigation Loan

1. The due date of the Annual Report shall be amended from April 1 to June 20-21, the summer solstice, in Sec. 201(c)(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(c)(2) andSec. 1161 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1320c-10. The Board of Trustees owes the DI Trust Fund an estimated $217 billion (2020) compensation, including 2.5% interest, owed by the OASI Trust Fund as the result of the inability of the Board of Trustees to adjust the OASDI tax rates to make reasonable accommodation for the high incidence of disability of the Baby Boomers during the Great Recession 2009-2015 and in 2019 pursuant to Sec. 201(l) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(l). Congress must resolved to adjust the OASDI payroll tax rate to the full extent needed to prevent a deficit in the highly depleted and inadequate DI Trust Fund by amending Sec. 201(b)(1)&(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1)(&(2). The OASI Trust Fund would receive credit on paying back their welfare fraud loan to DI Trust Fund, withthe difference between the 1.8% and 2.06% low or 2.3% high cost COVID-19 pandemic projection for 2020 pursuant to Sec. 201(l) of the Social Security Act under 42USC401(l). For the low-cost COVID-19 scenario (b)(1)(&(2) would be amended by appending (U) 2.06 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2021. $22.9 billion would be reduced from the debt owed DI to $170.1 billion. Or if they vote to pay the intermediate projection for as many as half pandemic compensation beneficiaries upon expiration by taxing the rich and state employees to reduce the DI debtby $40.2 billion reducing the DI debt to $152.8 billion=. (U) 2.3 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2019 and before January 1, 2021 and (V) 2.75 per centum of wages (including the tax on the rich and state employees) paid after December 31, 2020 and before January 1, 2025.

2. To conclusively pay back the loan from the DI Trust Fund in full, for the incompetenceof the Board of Trustees to properly adjust the OASDI tax rates during the Great Recession, by lawfully transferring funds from the OASI Trust Fund to the DI Trust Fund, now that the final results are known, it is advised to amend Sec. 201(b)(1)&(2) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§401(b)(1)(&(2) beginning with (R) 1.80 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 1999, and before January 1, 2009, and so reported. (S) 2.03 per centum of the wages/self-employment income paid after December 31, 2008, and before January 1, 2010, and so reported, (T) 2.35 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2009 and before January 1, 2011, (U) 2.36 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2010 and before January 1, 2012, (V) 2.39 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2011 and before January 1, 2013, (W) 2.45 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2012 and before January 1, 2014, (X) 2.31 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2013 and before January 1, 2015. (Y) 2.24 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2014 and before January 1, 2015. (Z) 2.37 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 2015, and before January 1, 2018. (AA) 2.04 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2019. (AB) 1.9 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2018 and before January 1, 2020. (AC) 2.06 per centum of the wages paid after December 31, 2019 and January 1, 2021, in the low-cost COVID-19 scenario. or (AC) 2.3 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2019 and before January 1, 2021, in theintermediate COVID-19 scenario. (AD) 2.75 per centum of wages paid after December 31, 2020 and before January 1, 2025, including the tax on the rich and state employees.

§122 Sec. 7 Insulin Rebate

1. Approximately 7.4 million Americans with diabetes use one or more formulations of insulin. People with diabetes using insulin come from varied economic, racial, and ethnic backgrounds. Almost 20% of African Americans with diabetes use insulin, either alone orwith oral medications, as do 14% of Caucasians and 17% of Hispanics with diabetes. Of adults with diabetes earning below the poverty level, approximately 24% use insulin, either alone or with oral medications. For millions of people living with diabetes, including all individuals with type 1 diabetes, access to insulin is literally a matter of life and death. In general, the dosage of insulin is adjusted based on blood and urine glucose determinations and carefully individualize to attain optimum therapeutic effect. It is administered into the thighs, upper arms, buttocks, or abdomen using a 25- to 28-gauge needle, one-half to five-eighths inch in length. Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) comes with +/-50% death rate within 20 years of juvenile onset. IDDM and diabetes in general, must be a qualifying disability for DI and SSI pursuant to Sec. 223(d)(4) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§423(d)(4) and Sec. 1602 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1381a.

2. As the hyperinflation in the price of insulin continues, individuals with diabetes are often forced to choose between purchasing their medications or paying for other necessities, exposing them to serious short and long-term health consequences. In 2013 Human insulin was available at the pharmacy for $25 to $100 per vial compared with human insulin analogs at $174 to $300 per vial. In one case four vials of insulin per month to properly manage diabetes, cost of $1,948 a month out-of-pocket, until the family met the health plan deductible. The average list price of insulin has skyrocketed in recent years, nearly tripling between 2002 and 2013. Between 2006 and 2013, averageout-of-pocket costs per insulin user among Medicare Part D enrollees increased by 10% per year for all insulin types. Comparatively, overall inflation during this time was 2.2%, medical care service costs increased by 3.8%, and spending for all prescription drugs increased by an average of 2.8%. Using a private insurance administrative claims database for all insulin prescriptions filled at least once, the median out-of-pocket cost to patients went from $19 per vial of insulin in 2000 to $36 per vial of insulin in 2010. In addition, Working Group members with the USC Schaeffer Center found that average Medicare Part D beneficiary out-of-pocket costs for all insulin types doubled between 2006 and 2013, from $27 per month to $65 per month. Because insulin price inflation is so extremely out-of-control, Medicaid has a duty to pay for all insulin prescriptions, without copayment, regardless of the patients ability to pay, pursuant to Sec. 1927 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1396r-8(3).

3. Almost 100 years ago, the discovery of insulin, derived from animal sources, began to save human lives. The advent of genetic engineering brought human insulin formulations to patients with diabetes in the 1980s. Rapid-acting and long-acting human insulin analogs were introduced in the 1990s. There are only three insulin manufacturers serving the U.S. market: Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, and Sanofi. The global insulin market is dominated by the same three large multinational corporations that manufacture and sell insulin in the U.S. Those companies represent 99% of the total insulin by value, 96% by total market volume, and 88% of global product registrations. The patents for many of thehuman insulin and human insulin analog formulations in current clinical use have expired. Hyperinflation in insulin prices is not the only serious crime associated with the

387

US insulin manufacturer Eli Lilly. In 2007 a federal court in New York City, with a showy first execution in the state of New York City in decades in defense of murdered undercover police officers who were likely culprits of precisely this sort of insulin adulteration, upheld an injunction against research by several physicians who had found that Eli Lilly's best selling anti-psychotic/anti-depressant drug Zyprexa (Olanzapine) had caused millions of cases diabetes and death in diabetics when mixed with alcohol, taken orally in a McFinn or counterfeited in insulin vials and injected into the bloodstream, respectively. There is reason to believe that for Eli Lilly to stop torturing their insulin dependent diabetic customers with both the most outrageous hyperinflation and lethal poisonings, in the United States, it is necessary that both Zyprexa be recalled and responsibility for manufacturing insulin in the United States be acquire by another pharmaceutical corporation. To negotiate non-judgmentally with the hyperinflation, monopolization and torture of the insulin manufacturing industry, in the United States and abroad, without bankrupting the manufacturers with mandatory restitution, it is absolutely necessary for State Medicaid programs to free all insulin consumers from being billed for insulin and sue Eli Lilly for a rebate. To compensate for the hyperinflation in insulin prices Medicaid has a long-term obligation to pay for all insulin prescriptions, without any copayment, deductible, or out-of-pocket expense to the consumer or cost to their health insurance, whatsoever, regardless of the ability of the patient, family and/or premium financed health insurance policy to pay as much as $3 billion a month, $35.5 billion in 2020 pursuant to Sec. 1927 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1396r-8(3). Coercion, retaliation, or discrimination and prohibited by Sec.503 of the Americans with Disabilities Act under 42USC§12203. States shall sue insulin manufacturers for a rebate to redress hyperinflation since 2000, asking insulin prices be reduced to one third current levels, plus 44 percent inflation over the past 20 years, plus no more than 2.5% inflation thereafter pursuant to Sec. 1927 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1396r-8(1).

§123 Sec. 8 Orphan Benefit

1. To reduce psychiatric abuse in foster care and enable orphans and orphanages to do SSA justice, orphans, including un-adopted adults orphaned before the age of 18, shall beconsidered a qualifying disability for a compassionate allowance to pay for the candy, carand college pursuant to Sec. 223 of the Social Security Act under 42USC423 and Sec. 1602 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1381a. . SSA must recognize the orphanage as a representative payor due 30 to 50% of an orphan’s benefit for the durationthat they receive room and board from the orphanage. An orphan is a child whose parents are dead or have abandoned them permanently. Adults can also be referred to as orphan, or adult orphans. However, those who reached adulthood before their parents died are normally not called orphans; the term is generally reserved for children whose parents have died while they are too young to support themselves. An orphan shall not be automatically be eligible for SSI if they are adopted or if parental rights have not been terminated by final felony determination pursuant to Sec. 472 of Title IV of the Social Security Act under 42USC§672. Do not take advantage of a widow or an orphan (Old Testament, Exodus 22:22). Leave your orphans; I will protect their lives. Your widows too can trust in me (Old Testament, Jeremiah 49:11). Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress andto keep oneself from being polluted by the world (New Testament, James 1:27). And theyfeed, for the love of God, the indigent, the orphan, and the captive (The Human: 8).

388

Therefore, treat not the orphan with harshness (The Quran, The Morning Hours: 9). Be good to orphans and the very poor. And speak good words to people (The Quran, The Heifer: 83). Give orphans their property, and do not substitute bad things for good. Do not assimilate their property into your own. Doing that is a serious crime (The Quran, The Women: 2).

2. In 2011, of the 73.7 million children under the age of 18, 28% (20.6 million) lived withone parent, and 4% of children lived with no parent. Approximately more than half of thechildren living with no parents were living with grandparents. There are an estimated 428,000 children in foster care in the United States in 2015 and that number is growing. 269,000 children entered foster care and 243,000 exited. 55% are planned to be reunified with parents or principal caregiver, 3% live with other relative, 26% are adopted, 3% stayin long term foster care, 4% are emancipated, 3% guardianship, and 5% have not established a case plan. 135,000 children are adopted in the United States each year, 54,000 with child welfare agency involvement. Of the 111,000 waiting to be adopted, 62,000 had their parental rights terminated that year. The circumstances associated with the child's removal was neglect 61%, drug abuse (parent) 34%, caretaker inability to cope14%, physical abuse 12%, child behavior problem 11%, housing 10%, parent incarceration 8%, alcohol abuse (parent) 6%, abandonment 5%, sexual abuse 4%, drug abuse (child) 2%, child disability 2%, relinquishment 1%, parent death 1%. and alcohol abuse (child) 0% The reason for the discharge of 248,496 children is reunification with parents or primary caregiver 51%, living with other relative 7%, adoption 23%, emancipation 8%, transfer to another agency 2%, runaway 0.4%, death of child 0.1%.

3. It is estimated that there are less than 111,000 orphans and 400,000 adult orphans of whom an estimated 50% would be eligible due to economic circumstances at any given time. The final estimates of the SSA Division of the Actuary October 1949 was that therewere a total of 3 million orphans, 6.3% of the under 18 population – 1.9 million paternal only 3.9%, 1.0 million maternal only 2.2% and 100,000 complete 0.2%. Orphaned children age 14-17 were found in the Census survey to be half as frequently in the labor force as all children of that age. The proportion who were both at work and in school was substantially greater among all children aged 14-7 than among orphans in these ages.Depending on their circumstances adult orphans have even less social support and are believed to suffer high levels of unemployment and low levels of education. The Veterans administration motto is “To care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan” and is somehow able to justify greater than 10% inflation.Widows are fairly well-taken care of by OASI, SSI has no less of a duty to provide for orphans, growing up in orphanages because their parents are dead or custody rights terminated by felony conviction. Orphans tend to be needy and having grown up in an orphanage, have an attitude and references, well-suited to benevolent administration of social security.

§124 Sec. 9 Three Percent Annual Increase in Cost-of-Living Adjustment and Minimum Wage

1. Sustainable Development Goal 1 to end poverty by 2030 has driven home the point that the maximum SSI benefits is not adequate to raise a person out of poverty and because there is not currently not enough money to afford all beneficiaries a poverty line income, the COLA, like payroll tax revenues, must increase faster than CPI inflation.

389

Originally determined as 2.4 percent, based on Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in Public Law 106-554, the Cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) is effectively 2.5 percent pursuant to the most current interpretation by the 2020 Annual Report of Sec. 215(i) of the Social Security Act under 42USC§415(i). However, since 2010 the COLA has frequently been less than 2.5 percent and in three years, zero. So many beneficiaries have complained about becomingunable to pay bills they could previously afford Medicare now reduces premiums for low-income beneficiaries. A three percent COLA is needed to compensate low-income beneficiaries for decades of attrition of benefit purchasing power against 2.7 percent average annual consumer price inflation since 1980, 2.2 percent since 2000, with a suspicion of that since 2010 consumer price index inflation has tended to be underestimated to justify sipping from the COLA. To reduce costs the maximum benefit shall increase 2.5 percent. In response to extraordinary expenses that jeopardize the profitability of the Trust Funds, the Board of Trustees may decide to limit the COLA for beneficiaries with incomes above the poverty line to 2.5 percent. Because a bifurcated COLA would be difficult to account for, the Annual Report would need to declare how many beneficiaries have incomes above and below the poverty line, and the precise average COLA 2.5 – 3 percent, to be auditable. To make a concerted effort to end poverty by 2030, avoid layoffs due to sporadic overcompensation for decades of neglect, and ensure minimum wage worker compensation increases faster than inflation, it is necessary for the Department of Labor to legislate an automatic 3 percent annual increasein minimum wage, from $7.25 an hour 2009-2020 to '$7.50 in 2021 and 3% more every year thereafter.' under 29USC§206(a)(1)(D).

2. Inflation is a powerful economic force that is both fundamental to economic growth and destructive to purchasing power. Hyperinflation can render a currency worthless, such as 200,000 percent annual inflation in Venezuela where starvation has become common. Although the law of supply and demand provides that more units will be sold at a lower cost, if inflation is too low or negative the economy contracts, as business ventures are unable to sustain adequate levels of growth in wages and profit, as enforced by the COVID-19 pandemic, exactly as predicted by economists in regards to federal budget cut and tax relief propaganda. It is desirable so far as possible to adopt measures which expand rather than contract international trade (economy/finance) pursuant to Art. XII (3)(a) of the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs (GATT). Tariffs, are one form of intervention that cause international trade to contract, wherefore tariffs have been required to be annually reduced 0.97 for industrialized and 0.999 for developing nations by the Swiss Formula for Unilateral Tariff Reductions (2007). A delicate mathematical balance between consumer price inflation and economic growth has long been sought to ensure a stable economy provides everyone with a steadily improving standard of living. The Iron Law of Wages provides if wages rise above subsistence level, they produce inflation, which in turn forces wages down to subsistence level again. To ensure stable consumer economic growth, States and employers from time to make estimates as to the minimum living wage so as to keep the standard of living of the population above the poverty line. Engel’s Law anticipates that with rising incomes, the share of expenditures for food and other products declines. Based on surveys of families' budgets and expenditure patterns, that the income elasticity of demand for food was relatively low. The resulting shift in expenditures affects demand patterns and employment structures. Engel's Law does not suggest that the consumption of food products remains unchanged as income increases, it suggests that consumers increase their expenditures for food

390

products, in percentage terms. Because the poor spend a larger percentage of their income on food and consumer goods, subsidies for the poor are believed to both sustain consumer economic growth and limit consumer price inflation because the poor are more astute observers of price than the rich who will save and thereby remove money from the consumer economy. To maximize economic efficiency, sustainability and standard of living, subsidies for the poor and goods consuming services, are therefore prioritized to grow faster than those for the middle-class, government and rich who are expected to protect themselves against inflation with amortized mortgages. For the federal government optimal growth rates are estimated at 2.5 percent government, 3 percent services, education, COLA and minimum wage, 3.3 percent food stamps, 3 to 3.4 percentinterest rate on t-bonds, 4 percent disability, 5.5 percent retirement and greater than 6 percent individual income and payroll tax revenues, lost to xenophobia in 2017 and the TCJA in 2018.

§125 Sec. 10 Labor Insurance

1. The Department of Labor shall estimate the cost to contributors to provide for six months, 24 weeks, paid maternity leave, or six month sabbatical every ten years, under state and federal unemployment compensation programs. Six months paid maternity leave or sabbatical every ten years overrule both the current Labor Department proposal for paid leave for both mothers and fathers, including adoptive parents, and 14 weeks of maternity leave in the Maternity Protection under International Labor Organization (ILO)Convention No. 183 (2000) pursuant to six months of exclusive breastfeeding required for infant nutrition and development by the World Health Organization (WHO) EssentialNutrition Actions: Mainstreaming Nutrition Through the Life-Course (2019). Men and adoptive parents are not expected to want more than a three week holiday to have the income to enjoy their new baby. Male and non-child bearing contributors are entitled to equal six month benefits with new mothers, wherefore legitimate demand for a six monthsabbatical every ten years of unemployment contribution is supported to prevent reverse gender discrimination. Unpaid maternity leave and the extraordinarily high cost of hospital delivery, as well time spent on child-care, are the primary reason that female income lags behind male, and that child poverty rates are so high in the United States. The United States lags dramatically behind all high-income countries, as well as many middle- and low-income countries when it comes to public policies designed to guaranteeadequate working conditions for families. One hundred sixty-three countries around the world guarantee paid leave to women after childbirth; the United States does not. Forty-five countries ensure that fathers either receives paid paternity leave or paid parental leave; the United States does not. Seventy-six countries protect workingwomen’s right to breastfeed at work; the United States offers no such protection. Ninety-six countries offerpaid annual leave; the United States does not require employers to provide any paid annual leave. One hundred thirty-nine countries provide paid leave for short or long-term illnesses; the United States has no national policy regarding sick leave. The only other industrialized country, which does not have paid maternity or parental leave for women, Australia, guarantees a full year of unpaid leave to all women in the country. In contrast, the Family and Medical Leave Act of February 5, 1993 (PL-303-3) in the U.S. provides only 12 weeks of unpaid leave to approximately half of mothers in the U.S. and nothing for the remainder. 45 countries ensure that fathers either receive paid paternity leave or have a right to paid parental leave. To legislate this fundamental labor program, the Secretary of Labor shall produce estimates regarding the cost to contributors and propose

391

to repeal experimental ‘Demonstration Projects’ and replace it with ‘Labor Insurance’ at Section 305 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§505.

(a) To expedite the reemployment of mothers who have established a benefit year to claim unemployment compensation under State law the Secretary of Labor shall pay unemployment compensation for 24 weeks of Maternity Protection under International Labor Organization (ILO) Convention No. 183 (2000) as amended to provide 6 months of exclusive breastfeeding by page 39 of the World Health Organization (WHO) Essential Nutrition Actions: Mainstreaming Nutrition Through the Life-Course (2019). To provide equal benefits for equal contributions, while the unemployment compensationprogram makes a good faith effort to provide labor insurance, male and non-child producing female contributors shall be entitled to a six month sabbatical every ten years.

(b) On production of a medical certificate, stating the presumed date of childbirth, a woman shall be entitled to a period of maternity leave of not less than 24 weeks. Cash benefits shall be provided at a level which ensures that the woman can maintain herself and her child in proper conditions of health and with a suitable standard of living.

(1) Where a woman does not meet the conditions to qualify for cash benefits under national laws and regulations or in any other manner consistent with national practice, she shall be entitled to adequate benefits out of social assistance funds, subject to the means test required for eligibility for such assistance, from Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) under Sec. 404 of Title IV-A of the Social Security Act under 42USC§604 et seq. and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Program for the Aged, Blind and Disabled under Sec. 1611 of Title XVI of the Social Security Act under 42USC§1382 et seq.

(2) Medical benefits shall be provided for the woman and her child. Medical benefits shall include prenatal, childbirth and postnatal care, as well as hospitalization care when necessary.

(c) Employers shall provide at least 3 weeks of paid leave annually to uphold the Holidaywith Pay ILO Convention No. 132 (1970) and Workers with Family Responsibilities Convention No. 156 (1981). Employers shall provide up to 12 week of unpaid leave to care for the severe sickness of a child under the Family and Medical Leave Act of February 5, 1993 (PL-303-3).

Part III Federal Government

§126 Sec. 11 Speed Ticket

1. It took four months for medical propagandists to touch their nose when prompted to identify the immediate symptom of coronavirus, before it descends the airways, the lungsfill up with fluid and the patient dies from severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Instead of gold, out came diarrhea, as fictitious as the asymptomatic COVID-19 patient. The Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender and Peppermint (HELP) Act of 2020 has finally arrived to cure coronavirus and mold allergies, just as the pandemic crosses the sixmonth threshold of economic depression.

392

2. It is resolved that Congress shall stop paying for “speed tickets” with extraordinarily expensive Relief Acts un-dismissed while high or low, on or off, ephedra (Mormon tea) harvested from the Great Basin National Park – extra senile. Ephedra intoxication of judges was noted to justify both the CARES Act of 2020 and Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 and is believed to be a common cause of high spending and clerical errors in Congress, statistical insolvency and administrative malaise and un-dismissed police rampages in federal and state courts. Whereas ephedra is not listed in the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) it seems best to treat the abuse as a constitutional disability affecting all three branches of the federal government pursuant to Sec. 510 (d)(2) of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 under 42USC§12210(d)(2) and XXV Amendment to the US Constitution and reauthorize the Census Bureau Annual Statistical Abstract that was discontinued October 1, 2011.

3. Previously congressional activity, and delinquent federal student loan collections have been cited with inciting rampage shootings under the influence of topical Dimethoxymethylamphetamine (DOM) exposure that causes a three day panic attack followed by six months recovery from severe mental illness if not immediately washed off with water. Panic disorder of US Ambassadors to the UN was evident in Republic of Iran v. United States of America (2018-2019). Henbane is suspected in COVID-19 quarantine related domestic violence without insomnia. Methamphetamine causes temporomandibular joint (TMJ) discomfort, and although there are several experimental amphetamines with different numbers of methyl molecules, is believed to be the only oneof these drugs of criminal abuse, that is listed in the CSA. To reduce demand for speed, opiates and other dangerous drugs and make peace with the idiotic drug war in the only fashion known to work, by federally legalizing marijuana, Congress shall repeal marijuana from Schedule I(c)(17) of the CSA under 21USC§812(c).

4. It is necessary to abolish the unwarranted criminal agencies diverting attention from themselves by wastefully attempting to sanction the innocent civilian and military officials and judges pursuant to Art. 54 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949). To outlaw outlays right, it is necessary to redress the highest concentration of detainees in the world and unjust war by a reduction in force that seeks to terminate terrorism financing for unwarranted secret police forces. Police defunding is popular in many localities, force reduction must require police officers have at least a Bachelor degree to prevent recidivism 100 percent of court orders. To abolish slavery while improving security despite the post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from the Civil War, the US Marshall shall justify their increases in excess of 3 percent annually based upon the usurpation by the federal court of any legitimate responsibilities of the FBI (protecting only Uniform Crime Reports, National Forensic Laboratory and Police Academy), DEA (destroying the DEA stockpile and all drugs seized by the police, and terminating DEA Diversion Control if the Department of Health and Human Services does not want to charge the biannual fee), ICE (shared with CBP), Interagency Drug and Crime Enforcement. To prevent terrorism it is necessary that federal criminal action, such as deportation, is warranted on an individual basis by a federal judge under Rule 4 Fed. Crim. P. The Authorization for employment of FBI and DEA Senior Executive Service under 5USC§3151-§3152 must be repealed. The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy and judiciary Sentencing Commission alsoneed to be abolished. The CIA (protecting the World Factbook), international military finance, international military education, international narcotic control and law

enforcement and non-UN peacekeeping are to be completely abolished by the State Department.

5. To stop corruption of the Attorney General, whereas the White House refuses to receive anymore Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) financing from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), all such ONDCP financing by CMS shall be terminated. The FBI, with lethal norovirus coffee prior from 2016, and Department of Justice Health Care Fraud Enforcement is suspected of being the only agency who tortures with live coronavirus, during the course of their routine unwarrantedbreaking and entering (B&E) of Attorney General petitioners.

6. Social Security Administration (SSA) shall stop sending out monoclonal antibody to spine contaminated disability questionnaires and prescribe Epsom salt bath or salt water pool or ocean swim to treat methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). To prevent a mostly kleptomaniac B&E, SSA shall stop entering addresses in the social security number indexed profile pursuant to Art. 28 of the Fourth Geneva Convention Relative to the Protection of Civilians in Times of War (1949).

7. Congress must amend federal torture statute to comply with Arts. 2, 4 and 14 of the Convention against Torture (CAT) by repealing the phrase “outside the United States” from 18USC§2340A(a) and amending Exclusive Remedies at §2340B so: The legal system shall ensure that the victim of an act of torture obtains redress and has an enforceable right to fair and adequate compensation, including the means for as full rehabilitation as possible. In the event of the death of the victim as a result of an act of torture, their dependents shall be entitled to compensation under Art. 14 of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT)(1987).

§127 Sec. 12 President’s Budget

1. To reduce superfluous paperwork and meaningless discretionary / mandatory distinction that unnecessarily divides and complicates agency budgets, the word “discretionary” shall be repealed from the caption of 'Enforcing Spending Limit under 2USC§901 & (b). 2USC§901(b)(2)(A-G) and (c) shall be repealed to eliminate accounting for Overseas Contingency Operation/ Global War on Terrorism, Continuing Disability Reviews, Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control, Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessment and 2020 Census; paragraphs (b)(2) (D) & (F) shall be renumbered (A) Disaster funding and (B) Wildfire suppression and a new paragraph shallprovide for (C) Ticket to Work (i) If there is a shortfall in federal Ticket-to-work funding for state vocational agencies because the Annual Reports of SSA do not adequately account for the program in their administrative expenses pursuant to the Ticket to Work and Self-Sufficiency Act of 1999 Sec. 1148(b)(1) of the Social Security Act under 42USC1320b-19(b)(1) Congress shall legislate to ensure the program is adequately funded $3,747,830,155 in 2020, with generous 2.7% inflation from 2015 to afford COVID-19 disabled workers a ticket to work that prescribes hydrocortisone, eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint (HELP) to cure coronavirus and mold allergies pursuant to title I of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 under 29USC§720(b)(1).

394

2. For the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and Treasury Bureau of Fiscal Services to produce a federal budget that is both accurate and legitimate, to: The terms ‘‘budget outlays’’ and ‘‘outlays’’ mean, with respect to any fiscal year, expenditures and net lending of funds under budget authority during such year under 2USC§622(1), should be appended:

(A) The term ‘‘on-budget outlays’’ means, with respect to any fiscal year, the President's budget, all the expenditures of the United States Government, except those for the Federal Old Age Survivor Disability Insurance Trust Funds, “referred to as off-budget outlays”, and the repayment of debt principal or negative subsidy revenues, excluded.

(B) The new Office of Fiscal Services Combined Statement outlay and undistributed offsetting receipt overview table must outlaw fictitious, interagency transfer, lending, etc.unoriginal outlays from the budget request as they do for the revenue by source category, for the edification of OMB Historical Table 4.1 Outlays by Agency. The Combined Statement must agree to the definition of undistributed offsetting receipts often called advanced appropriations – unspent funds remaining at the end of year that are used to reduce the deficit and pay the first obligations of the new year – and rename the undistributed offsetting receipt revenue category “earnings on investments”. CBO will then cross-examine the outlays by agency and undistributed offsetting receipts table under these new rules.

(C) Fictitious rows: off-budget offsetting receipts, Other Defense-Civil Programs, Allowances, On and Off Budget Independent Agencies, Off-budget Undistributed Offsetting Receipts, International Assistance Programs [added to State], and novel Infrastructure Improvement rows shall be deleted from OMB Table 4.1 and Bureau of Fiscal Services. To ensure there is a balance available for federal outlays, t-bond sales shall allow for up to a three percent margin of error more than scheduled expenditures pursuant to the Anti-deficiency Act of 1982 under 31USC§1502.

(D) New CBO, and obsolete OMB Table 4.1 Outlays by Agency table shall report the exact amount of federal outlays reported in annual congressional budget justifications andBureau of Fiscal Services the monthly Treasury report for the following federal agencies (1) Legislative Branch, (2) Judicial Branch, Departments of (3) Agriculture, (4) Commerce, (5) Customs, aka Homeland Security, (6) Defense-Military Programs (changename to Military Department if their budget declares undistributed offsetting receipts), (7) Education, (8) Energy, (9) Health and Human Service (to graduate into two Cabinet agencies with outlays growing 3%), (10) Housing and Urban Development, (11) Interior, (12) Justice, (13) Labor, (14) State (combined with unrepresented International Assistance Program row), (15) Transportation, (16) Treasury, (17) Veteran’s Affairs, (18)Environmental Protection Agency, (19) Executive Office of the President, (20) Federal Emergency Management Administration (21) General Services Administration and Office of Personnel Management, (22) National Aeronautics and Space Administration, (23) National Science Foundation, (24) Small Business Administration (including Office of Advocacy), (25) on-budget Social Security Supplemental Security Income transferred off-budget if the rich are taxed (26) on-budget undistributed off-setting receipts, (27) totalon-budget outlays, (28) total off-budget outlays reported by the Annual Report of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Old Age Survivor Insurance Trust Fund and Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund' and (29) total outlays.

395

(E) Undistributed offsetting receipts are agency revenues remaining from the previous year, often called advanced appropriations, that are used to pay for the following year budget, to reduce outlays by the General Fund. Only five agency budget justifications produce reliable undistributed offsetting receipts, the Departments of Defense, Education,Health and Human Services, Interior and Corp of Engineers – Civil Programs. The annual tabulation of undistributed offsetting receipts is mathematically necessary to calculate total federal outlays and surplus / deficit. The Department of Agriculture has been saving money stolen from food stamps cuts in the Commodity Credit Corporation and does not produce undistributed offsetting receipts, nor make any additional “trade war” compensation payments, for that matter of concealing the proceeds of domestic program robbery. Elementary and Secondary Education and Medicaid declare Advance Appropriations in their budget tables, with explanation that these savings are used to pay for the difference between the school year and the fiscal year and to pay for the beginningof the next year medical claims. The Corp of Engineers – Civil Programs budget vacillates between the sound financial strategy of openly declaring precisely $1 billion in undistributed offsetting receipts and total incompetence, but having once made the declaration, predictably produces $1 billion undistributed offsetting receipts annually as the cornerstone of their federal outlay total. The Departments of Defense and Interior budgets are impaired by the failure to openly declare undistributed offsetting receipts in their budget overview. The Defense Department shall declare undistributed offsetting receipts with the difference between the congressional budget request and the total outlays of the three military departments – Air Force, Army and Navy. The Department of Interior turns a tidy profit in undistributed offsetting receipts, that must be declared to ensure payment of 2.5 percent growth for public land agencies and 3 percent for Indian Affairs programs.

(F) Usual federal spending inflation is estimated to grow 2.5 percent for government, 3 percent for services, education, minimum wage, cost-of-living adjustment, 3.3 percent forfood stamps, 4 percent for disability and child welfare and 5.5 percent for retirement annually. Any shortfall is entitled to compensation for deprivation of relief under 18USC§246 pursuant to the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020 and Art. 14 of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman orDegrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT)(1987).

§127 Sec. 13 Customs Impoundment

1. Customs must defend the sources of their skyrocketing revenue and law enforcement outlay declarations. Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c) because it is determined to be excessive under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and §1514(a)(2).

2. Tariff increases since FY 17 and Customs revenue growth since FY 18 are excessive. Safeguard measure, such as tariff barriers imposed by the Trump Administration, have been outlawed Swiss Formula on Unilateral Tariff Reduction (2007) and must end after four years because they are unjustifiable and incur retaliation under Arts. XII and XIX of

396

the General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs (1994). As an industrialized nation United States tariffs must decrease by 3 percent, 0.97 annually pursuant to the Swiss Formula on Unilateral Tariff Reduction (2007). To make amends for unlawful tariff increases between 2017 and 2020, it is suggested that tariffs be reduced 0.97 annually since 2016.

3. To accurately account for total customs revenues and total customs outlays national accountants shall report total customs revenues and total customs outlays and not attempt to reduce the outlay total with any percentage of customs revenues. All Customs receiptsshall be deposited into the Treasury and the Treasury shall pay for all Customs outlays. The USDA FY 21 budget requested delinking Sec. 32 funds with Customs revenues. TheTreasury Office of Fiscal Services Combined Statement shall review the disturbing language and Congress amend any statute justifying such unaccountable sharing of Customs receipts with the General Fund. FY 19 estimates $70.8 billion total Customs Duties. $50.3 billion Duties on Imports. -$2.7 billion Refunds and Drawbacks, United States Customs Service (Indefinite), Treasury. $40.8 million Import Duties on Arms and Ammunition. $21.5 billion 30% of Customs Duties, Fund for Strengthening Markets, Income and Supply (Section 32). $28,380 3.08 Percent of Customs Duties, Agricultural Disaster Relief Trust Fund, Farm Service Agency, Agriculture. $30 million Transfers from General Fund of Amounts Equal to Certain Customs Duties, Reforestation Trust Fund, Forest Service. $62.6 million Customs Duties, Aquatic Resources Trust Fund, Sport Fish Restoration. $1.6 billion Transfers from General Fund of Amounts Equal to Certain Taxes, Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund. It is possible that Customs revenues might be significantly higher if cost-sharing were outlawed.

4. The withholding on wages of non-resident aliens under 26USC§1441 must be repealed. Customs may not count the tax withholdings of non-resident aliens on trial or deported as customs revenues. Their social security contributions count towards the full 40 quarters of contributions it takes aliens to qualify for benefits. Customs must not discriminate against the taxpayers who most sustain federal revenue growth. The March Treasury Statement ruled all taxes assigned to individual income and payroll tax shall be completely immune from customs duties pursuant to Sec. 207 of the Social Security Act under 42USC§407.

5. The increase in fees for visas shall be repealed. Immigrants shall be granted a social security number and employment authorization free of charge. Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) beneficiaries shall be sold a US Passport, that indicates theircitizenship of US or stateless, pursuant to common Arts. 26-29 of the Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees (1951) and Stateless Persons (1954).

5. Customs revenues shall be generated by repealing the one tax limit in 26USC§4612(b) and replacing it with - In addition, there is imposed a flat 5% energy export tax (feet) by the UN Arrears and Certain Iranian Assets Act of 2020.

6. Hyperinflation in Customs and Border Protection must be justified in Immigration andCustoms Enforcement (ICE) spending reduction to an estimated $6 billion FY 21 and termination / abolition of the unwarranted deportation program within 42 months shared with the US Marshall for individual deportation trials of criminal aliens by a federal judge to counsel them against being recruited by prison gangs as foot soldiers in Central

397

American drug wars pursuant to Art. 22 of the International Convention on the Protectionof the Rights of Migrant Workers and Their Families (1990) and Rule 4 Fed. Crim. P.

7. Customs fiscal year budget must report total customs revenues and total customs outlays and the Customs shall deposit all revenues in the Treasury who shall pay all Customs outlays. As of FY 21 the Secret Service is to be transferred back to Treasury. To accurately account for Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) supplementals is necessary that the total Customs budget must be historically subtract theamount of FEMA budget request, to produce Customs Total Budget Authority subtracted by Rescissions, above Total Budget Authority, equal to Customs Federal Outlays. To clearly report total federal outlays for the Department, the FEMA must be removed from the Customs budget to ensure any supplemental FEMA appropriations are accounted for by a FEMA row in OMB Table 4 alphabetically indexed right after the Executive Office of the President who issues the disaster declaration. Customs must stop attempting to receive revenues shared with the Treasury by depositing them in their entirety and deleting several unnecessary rows from the Homeland Security budget pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508.– Less FEMA Disaster Relief, Less Mandatory Fees and Trust Funds, Gross Discretionary Budget Authority, Less Overseas Contingency Operations, Less Discretionary Offsetting Fees, Less FEMA Disaster Relief – Major Disaster Cap Adjustment, Net Discretionary Budget Authority, Less – CHIMP Funding, and Adjusted Net Discretionary Budget Authority.

§129 Sec. 14 Education, Housing and Interior Budget Credit Reform Accounting

1. The Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 Pub. L. 101–508, title XIII, §13501, Nov. 5, 1990, 104 Stat. 1388–628 defined the terms ‘‘budget outlays’’ and ‘‘outlays’’ to mean, with respect to any fiscal year, expenditures and net lending of funds under budget authority during such year under 2USC§622(1). Government outlays are held responsible only for administrative and loan guaranty costs. All other lending costs should not have any incidental effects on the tabulation of governmental receipts or outlays under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C).

2. The Education Department (ED) budget has largest margin of error of any Cabinet agency. ED budget requests fraudulently reduce the total with student loan revenues that must be excluded, when not erroneously billing the General Fund for huge and irregular replenishments of [privately financed federal student lending programs], that must be excluded from the outlay total pursuant to the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). Budget cuts must not be imposed upon federal education finance that should grow 3 percent annually to afford consumer price inflation in goods consuming education services. Retaliation is hard wired into the Department budget request with computer fraud and inconsistent year to year accounting software that is virtually in-auditable, calling for a printer to check off scrambled rows when they are entered, or to do it her unprecedented way from FY 19 without checking it against historical records. The Department is requested to return to using a normal Microsoft Office table organized consistent with historical budget request FY 22.

a. The final ruling of the 2020 President’s three-year budget is that total discretionary spending for education rose from $63 billion FY 18 cut from $68 billion FY 17, to $68 billion CR 18, to $70.6 billion FY 18 appropriation, $500 million more than $70.1 billion

398

3% annual growth. 0.7% FY 19 and 2.3% FY 20 discretionary spending growth is less than 3% and it is important that FY 21 education budget is 3% inflation from FY 16 - $76.2 billion FY 21. Abusing the number of the beast in the $66,561 million FY 21 discretionary budget request, however playfully, cannot be tolerated. Mandatory outlays shall be estimated to increase to from $6 billion FY 18 to $7 billion FY 21 within 42 months (Revelation 13:10) and Advance Appropriations to inflate 3 percent. Total federal outlays for the Department of Education are estimated $83 billion FY 21. The $66.6 billion FY 21 discretionary budget cut request, from $72.87 billion FY 20 is a crime of genocide that must be highly suspected as being causative of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as representative of nationwide school closures for which education institutions must receive full-funding.

b. To end the COVID-19 pandemic and prevent snot nose child deaths in the 2020-2021 school year, it is essential that ED prescribe Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) to cure coronavirus and mold allergies. Just smear a dab on the noseand/or chest to uphold the high standards of School Board of Nassau County v. Arline, 480 U.S. 273 (1987), Sutton v. United Air Lines, Inc., 527 U.S. 471 (1999) and Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Kentucky, Inc. v. Williams, 534 U.S. 184 (2002) against medical negligence to prescribe curative treatment as defended by Sec. 3(4)(E)(i)(I) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 under 42USC§12102(4)(E)(i)(I). ED and Health and Human Services (HHS) must Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) pass the Convention on Pandemic Treatment or be disabled by germaphobia. Although coronavirus is the only cold with a cure, it is the most contagious virus pandemic known, if untreated it can cause the lungs to fill with fluid anddeath from asphyxiation. If a school is unable to prescribe Hydrocortisone, Eucalyptus, Lavender or Peppermint (HELP) homeschooling or online college courses are advised. Schools should administrate essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint in bathroom soaps to facilitate students to wash their nose, cleansers and humidifiers placed in entrances and classrooms. Germaphobia/affluenza is masked by an irrational fear of infectious disease or its treatment.

3. To correct the HUD budget-in-brief introduction it necessary to define that governmentoutlays are responsible only for administrative and loan guaranty costs, and all other lending costs are privately financed and should not have any incidental effects on governmental receipts or outlays under 2USC§661a(5)(A)(C). It is necessary to prove balance is available, for all accounts, budget authority is more than federal outlays, advanced appropriations are undistributed offsetting receipts, private receipts are more than private outlays, and that total public and private revenues are more than total outlaysunder 31USC§1502 to overcome dependency on discretionary / mandatory gibberish and enjoin other federal agencies to repeal 2USC§901(b). Manufactured House Fees Trust (MHFT) is the only [offsetting receipts] accepted ($16 million) to reduce federal outlays, the rest are dedicated to private lending programs. Discretionary is redefined to be federal and mandatory to be private.

a. The supplemental Fiscal Year 2020 budget request for federal outlays is $56.2 billion, -2.9% less than HUD (Gross) discretionary outlays (Gross) and 8.6% more than (Net) discretionary - exactly the same as the HUD FY 21 Budget-in-brief estimates for FY 20. The FY 21 Supplemental is the first HUD budget that claims to exactly estimate federal outlays, report undistributed offsetting receipts and differentiate between federal and

399

private revenues and outlays. Great care must be used when adding subtotals and totals - make two copies of entered data in scrap file, one for budget authority and the other for outlays, delete unnecessary rows pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508. Free Camping […] row is to be included in the Self-Sufficiency Program FY 21 Supplemental and FY 22 to solicit HUD support for city to city to National Trail System trails and planting of a trail mix of fruit and nut trees and wild edibles. HUD shall solicit for $4 billion of new programs of relief no later than FY 23 for FY 24, to make the leap from $66 billion FY 23 to $70 billion FY 24, whereas no persecution regarding the number of the beast shall last longer than 42 months (Revelation 13:10) After a 0.7% cut FY 17-FY 18, budget cuts are not tolerated anymore and the HUD budget total has been severely punished for their attempted discrimination, with total federal outlays increasing 8% FY 18 - FY 19 and 9% to $56.2 billion FY 20. Total (discretionary) federal outlays for HUD FY 21 are estimated to be $62.9 billion FY 21, a 12% increase from FY 20, rather than -19% decrease to $47.4 billion FY 21. 3% growth from FY 17 or better, the new $5.2 billion FY 21 Moving to Work Program and $50 billion increase to [$550 billion GNMA limit], should settle all foreclosure/ eviction moratorium claims under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act CARES Act by October 2020. Sec. 4022 provides for a foreclosure moratorium and consumer right to request forbearance on Federally backed mortgage loan is extended to multifamily properties under Sec. 4023. There is a temporary moratorium on eviction filings for a 120-day period of eviction relief for tenants in federally-backed housing, who may not be served with an eviction notice from March 27, 2020 until July 25, 2020 and the notice must give 30 days to leave the property (Aug. 24, 2020).

4. The Department of the Interior Budget-in Brief must begin to calculate undistributed offsetting receipts in order to justify 2.5 percent annual spending increase for land management agencies and 3 percent growth for Indian Affairs. Current appropriations arefederal outlays for agencies. Permanent appropriations are additional revenue funded operations that contribute to agency budget authority. Undistributed offsetting receipts are total revenues minus total budget authority, they reduce the federal deficit and are the first funds used by the Treasury to pay Interior budget authority in the beginning of the year. To end budget trauma from cuts, threatened budget cuts and high cost of compensation under 18USC§246, it is necessary for the Budget-in-brief overview to quantify both the Department profit margin adjusted by the size of the deficiency between total federal outlays and inflation adjusted current appropriations, 2.5% government, 3% services, Indian and Insular Affairs, to be remedied by the Anti-deficiency act under 31USC§1515 to ensure balance is available at time obligation is incurred under §1502. Subtracting the offsetting deficiency to produce undistributed offsetting receipts perfects the first reproducible, accurate, Interior budget framework under 24USC§153.

a. Interior receipts are declining since a high of $13.3 billion in FY 19. However, there are plenty of undeclared undistributed offsetting receipts for the Secretary’s proposal to administrate $1.3 billion Public Lands Infrastructure Fund in addition to 2.5% government and 3% Indian Affairs current appropriations growth since FY 17. There arealways enough revenues for the Interior Department to ask Congress to help afford to purchase the Forest Service outright and start operating on the supplemental basis of totalcurrent appropriations they pretend to operate on, rather than the deficiency they currently Office of Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR) pursuant to the Anti-deficiency

400

Act of 1982 under 31USC§1515. Even with the Secretary and President inciting and counterfeiting enough energy revenues payments to states to finance prescribed burns andslash piles in violation of 36CFR§261.5 in the Interior Budget-in-brief, camping on the banks of waterways in the Interior is believed to be 65 times more fire-safe than National Forests whose the most flammable Congressional practice is to genocidally enforce eviction of river campers pursuant to amendment of 36CFR261.58(e)(z) to prohibit campers entry or access to ‘endangered species habitat, urban drinking watershed, privateproperty or military base perimeter’, and encourage them to extinguish campfires with water on the bank of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers, rather than fight wildfire smolder with mineral soil for ten full minutes in the duff.

b. Hyperinflation in permanent appropriations for the Interior Office of the Secretary is asdisappointing the Secretary’s current appropriations as it is alarming. The hyperinflation is attributed to an unauthorized switching of Mineral Lease and Associated Payments rowto permanent appropriations, from receipts, FY 20 concurrent with the Secretary’s currentappropriation impoverishing invention of ONRR. Since FY 19 total receipts have declined and the 127% increase in Office of the Secretary budget authority wants to be prohibited for hyperinflation to justify 2.5% annual current appropriation growth since FY 17 for the Secretary under 31USC§1517(a)(2) and 1514(a)(2). These non-imaginary, extra since FY 19, ‘Mineral Lease and Associated Payments’ add up to be distributed states, may be rescinded by the Secretary, to better help Congress to afford to transfer the Forest Service to the Interior, and enable the Solicitor to do the ‘Indian email war FY 17 – FY 20’ justice under 18USC§1111. Title X of the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), that created the House and Senate Budget Committees and the Congressional Budget Office, does not apply to budget authority proposed to be rescinded under 2USC§684(c). Treasury energy payments were never authorized to be distributed to any state but Alaska under Sec. 20001(b)(5) of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 (P .L . 115-97, Dec. 22).

c. Hyperinflation in permanent appropriations for the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSMRE) due to overpayment of United Mine Workers Health Benefit Plans (UMWA) turns out to be an illusory overestimate under the OSMHE FY20 budget justification involving omission of Mandatory Grants to Non-Certified States (AML Funds) row. The Office of Surface Mining Reclamation (OSMR) current appropriations must increase 10% from FY 17 to $278 million FY 21. It is estimated 2.5% growth to $332 million UMWA FY 21 including $141 million FY 20 Mandatory Grants to Non-Certified States (AML Funds) growing to $145 million FY 21. The OSME needs a more optimistic budget. Payments (or Grants) to States in Lieu of Coal Fee Receipts (Treasury Funds) are down 54% FY20-FY 21 and should be increased from $47.3 million or $42.6 million FY 20 to $107 million FY 21 to terminate irregular energy payments to states and sustain environmental restoration.

Deprivation of relief is a civil rights crime under 18USC§246, that motivates life-threatening deprivation of rights under color of law under 18USC§241 and conspiracy against rights under 18USC§242 prompting redefinition by the Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (The Gambia v. Myanmar) Summary 2020/1 23 January 2020. The random distinction by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) between State Department and International Assistance,

The State Department, Foreign Operations and Related Organizations budget request requires the elimination of unnecessary columns supporting the reporting of Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism spending pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act under 44USC§3508. Overseas Contingency Operations/Global War on Terrorism spending pursuant to Sec. 251(b)(2)(A) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985 under 2USC§901a(b) must be repealed by Congress. This will relieve stress on the table and give accountants more time to abolish unlawful security assistance, simplify and expand reporting and pay arrears. Due to widespread budget cuts to international organizations beginning FY 17 and continuing through FY 20 all State Department financed agencies and outlay categories are due 2.5 percent growth from FY 16. UN agencies requesting them are due reasonable arrears, including 2.5 interest, for any shortfalls that occurred during this time period.

4. Foreign military finance, foreign military education, international narcotic control and law enforcement, non-UN peacekeeping must be completely terminated / abolished. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), federal funding source unknown, must also be usurped / abolished by the State Department, protecting the World Factbook and total spending increase from $66.6 billion FY 21 arrears to $70 billion FY 23.

5. United Nations Relief and Works Administration for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has been identified as the International Organization and Program row inthe State Department, Foreign Operation and Related Organizations fiscal year budget. UNRWA has defended their claim against threatened budget cuts, much more effectively than UNESCO’s 2011 US funding termination dues to discrimination against Palestine, but must be ensured 2.5 percent annual growth from FY 16.

6. UNESCO imposed $550 million arrears plus $85.7 million FY 18, the US did not settleand the total cost of redressing college tuition hyperinflation, delinquent student loan collections incited rampage shootings, congressional budget-justification and computer fraud, by re-enrolling in UNESCO is crudely estimated at $906 million, including $92.3 million current dues FY 21 2.5% more thereafter. Since the 1980s, the United States has withheld a proportionate share of assessed contributions to the U.N. regular budget for selected activities or programs related to the Palestinians (Section 114 of P.L. 98-164). This provision has impacted U.N. regular budget funding through the CIO account. Palestinian Membership. Two laws enacted in the 1990s prohibit funding to U.N. entities that admit the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) as a member, or grant full membership as a state to any group that does not have the internationally recognized attributes of statehood (Section 414 of P.L. 101-246; Section 410 of P.L. 103-236). This provision has impacted UNESCO funding through the CIO and IO&P accounts. (Sec. 410) Prohibits U.S. contributions to any affiliated organization of the United Nations or to the United Nations if they grant full membership as a state to a group that does not have internationally recognized attributes of statehood. These rules discriminates against nationality ultra vires the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racism (1969) and UNESCO Convention against Discrimination in Education (1960). The Presidential interference with international organizations in 22USC§288 must be repealed to prevent misinterpretation of the withholding from international organizations in regards to the

403

Palestine Liberation Organization not being the same as the Government of Palestine under 22USC§2227.

7. The U.S. pays a share of the assessed budgets of 44 international organizations, including the United Nations Regular budget, United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) the US has not paid since 2011, and discounting the Residual Mechanisms for War Crime Tribunals three times, only 11 of these 41 organizations, listed in the Contributions or International Organizations sub-table, are part of the United Nations system. The Contributions for International Organizations table must be rearranged to include the Convention for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons and World Trade Organization in the 11 United Nations programs. The others 30 organizations mostly relate to the Organization of American States and conservation of resources. NATO is advised to claim $65.6 million FY 21 and an extra million in FY 23 to make it to Chapter VII in less than 42 months.

8. The weight of gold which came in to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold (1 Kings 10:14)(2 Chronicles 9:13). He who has an ear, let him hear. If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints for forty-two months…He also forced everyone great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark which is the name of the beast or the number of his name, This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s number. His number is 666 (Revelation 13:9, 10 & 16-18). O Prophet! why do you forbid (yourself) that which Allah has made lawful for you; you seek to please your wives; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful (The Prohibition 66:1). O youwho believe! save yourselves and your families from a fire whose fuel is men and stones; over it are angels stern and strong, they do not disobey Allah in what He commands them, and do as they are commanded (The Prohibition 66:6). Thy people called it a lie, and yet it is the truth. Say, I have not charge over you; to every prophecy is a set time, and in the end ye shall know (Cattle 6:66). Say: Come I will recite what your Lord has forbidden to you-- (remember) that you do not associate anything with Him and show kindness to your parents, and do not slay your children for (fear of) poverty-- We providefor you and for them-- and do not draw nigh to indecencies, those of them which are apparent and those which are concealed, and do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden except for the requirements of justice; this He has enjoined you with that you may understand (Cattle 6:151).

Part V Convention on Pandemic Treatment

§132 Sec. 17 Preamble

Recognizing that since February 2020 everyone on the planet has probably been exposed to, and at one time or another, contracted the highly contagious COVID-19 disease, that begins with an infected nose that can descend down the airways and cause death when the lungs fill with fluid.

404

Recognizing the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the official name of the coronavirus disease as COVID-19, and named the virus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Recalling as of July 26, 2020 there have been an estimated 16.1 million confirmed cases, 9.27 million recovered and 645,000 deaths from COVID-19.

Recalling that the invention of the antibiotic streptomycin in 1946 and tuberculosis drug isoniazid (INH) in the 1950s eliminated demand for the historical Tubercular Hospital at Fort Bayard under 24USC§19, nine months of the combination of INH and rifampin chemotherapy will result in roughly 95% cure rates, therapy with INH, rifampin and ethambutol helps avoid the complication of drug resistance with non-tubercular mycobacterial disease, the addition of pyrazinamide can reduce treatment time to six months, but is toxic.

Resenting the futile preventative vaccine propaganda in response to pandemics that have already begun and must be cured with the right drugs, the trade in live viruses, their loss, theft and abuse, that there is officially no treatment for coronavirus, that the Ozone Secretariat has not exempted corticosteroid inhalers from the Montreal Protocol to cure the coronavirus and achieve 2020 goals and most of all that WHO pandemic response does not prescribe hydrocortisone creme, or to avoid Cushing's disease side-effect, essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint aromatherapy to cure coronavirus and mold allergies and prescription Oseltamivir (Tamiflu), Zanamivir (Relenza) and Amantadine (Symmetrel) to cure influenza.

Resolving to wear a clean face mask in contagious places to reduce the risk of transmission by an estimated 95%.

Recognizing that coronavirus and influenza are disabilities for which everyone has the equal right to voluntary curative treatment to fully enjoy all their right and freedoms pursuant to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2007).

Resolving to respond to the coronavirus pandemic and any future influenza pandemics byprioritizing the immediate prescription of curative medicines.

Believing health = eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint

§133 Sec. 18 Art. 1 Essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint

1. Essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint cure coronavirus and mold allergies. A drop is topically applied with the index finger to the exterior of the nose and upper lip.

2. The aroma should cause the nasal irritation to immediately go down, and contagiousness and infection is believed to be instantly cured. The nasal irritation congeals into boogers. The alcohol in the essential oil mixture also sterilizes fingers probing inside the nostrils to prevent infection, careful to avoid injury to the sensitive mucosal membrane. When the gold boogers are removed, without injury, nasal irritation is completely eliminated. The patient is cured.

405

3. Scientific, before and after treatment, diagnostic testing is needed to determine the curerate and speed, and other particulars regarding these essential oils, before children risk their lives returning to schools that have been closed since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

§134 Sec. 19 Art. 2 Aromatherapy

To sterilize popular indoor social environments, such as schools, against the highly contagious and potentially lethal coronavirus, aromatherapy using essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint is advised to be dispensed by humidifier. These humidifiers should be placed at the entrance to ensure everyone is treated as they enter the building. The public must be informed that these essential oils are non-toxic and non-allergenic by nature, they cure both coronavirus and mold allergies.

§135 Sec. 20 Art. 3 Soaps, cleansers and other medicinal herbs

Public restrooms must sanitized with eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint soaps and cleaners. The social solution to end the pandemic may be to reopen public restrooms stocked with soaps containing essential oils of eucalyptus, lavender or peppermint for people to wash their nose, face, hands and chest. Oral echinacea preparations have been effective at curing fluid filled lungs, but relief is not instant. Many other natural remediesfor pulmonary conditions may cure coronavirus, and are due publicity if they work or don't. The public must trust eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint.

§136 Sec. 21 Art. 4 Hydrocortisone crème

1. Corticosteroids are the definitive medical treatment for coronavirus and mold allergies.Cushing's disease is a non-life threatening side-effect of excessive life-saving corticosteroid use, its symptoms are fragile bones and puffy cheeks, and may a be a lead culprit in the high rates of total knee and hip replacement surgeries in industrialized nations. The non-prescription of corticosteroid inhalers to first time asthma patients is certain to be a leading cause of the dramatic rise in asthma and allergy patients over the past few decades.

2. Hydrocortisone crème is a corticosteroid that is accessible over-the-counter, for as littleas a dollar a tube. When a dab is applied topically to the exterior of the nose, hydrocortisone creme instantly cures coronavirus and allergic rhinitis due to mold. A dabof hydrocortisone crème can also be applied to the chest to treat the potentially lethal fluid filled lungs exhibited in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) from coronavirus, the carcinogenic lung nodules of pulmonary aspergillosis and the coronavirus and mold triggers of asthma attacks for as fast a cure as a rescue inhaler and lower-cost and risk of potentially lethal malicious mold contamination than more expensive oral, inhaled and intravenous corticosteroids. The dose of corticosteroid in hydrocortisone crème is much lower than other corticosteroid preparations and should be below the threshold of Cushing's disease, despite chronic use.

3. Because essential oil of eucalyptus, lavender and peppermint aromatherapy is equally curative with corticosteroids, without any potentially harmful side-effects, and can be

406

used to sterilize environments, they are the primary medicines to be promoted to cure the COVID-19 pandemic. Nonetheless, no law shall be allowed to prohibit, limit or control the use of prescription and over-the-counter corticosteroids to cure coronavirus and mold allergies and treat asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder.

§137 Sec. 22 Art. 5 Corticosteroid inhaler exemption

1. It is a crime that there is said to be no official treatment for coronavirus although corticosteroids are the definitive medical treatment for coronavirus, and that the Ozone Secretariat has not exempted corticosteroid inhalers from their failed 2020 prohibition agenda to inform the public that corticosteroids cure COVID-19. Ozone is a form of air pollution and its defenders do not have the standing to prohibit life-saving corticosteroid inhalers, or any other, dangerously less-effective, fluorocarbon propelled inhaler, a smarter physician would want to prohibit, for that matter, because asthma patients may want to treat ozone inhalation. Wherefore corticosteroid inhalers are to be exempted from the 1987 Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, and 1990 London Amendment, 1992 Copenhagen Amendment, 1997 Montreal Amendment, 1999 Beijing Amendment, and 2016 Kigali Amendment thereto, by the Ozone Secretariat.

§138 Sec. 23 Art. 6 Prescription influenza drugs

1. WHO must respond to influenza pandemics by prioritizing the prescription of Oseltamivir (Tamiflu), Zanamivir (Relenza) and Amantadine (Symmetrel) to cure influenza. Amantadine (Symmetrel) is cheapest and is also indicated to cure the potentially lethal extra-pyramidal facial tic side-effect of antipsychotic drugs by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

2. WHO influenza pandemic response has been crazy – germaphobic - for as long as anyone can remember. It involves espionage-like publicity regarding the sending of live virus samples around the globe for vaccine development although flu vaccine effectiveness is often abysmal and it is prescription flu drugs that are wanted. WHO mustprimarily prescribe and provide life-saving prescription flu drugs, second ensure the public is informed of the use of masks and safety protocols to prevent the spread of contagious airborne disease and third develop a more effective vaccine for next year.

§139 Sec. 24 Art. 7 Ratification

The Secretary-General of the United Nations, and Director-Generals of the World Health Organization and Ozone Secretariat shall equally be the depositary of the present Convention. The Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish texts of the present Convention shall be equally authentic. A State Party may denounce the present Convention by written notification to the Secretary-General or Director-Generals. Any State Party may propose an amendment to the present Convention and submit it to the Secretary-General, or Director-Generals. Reservations incompatible with the object and purpose of the present Convention shall not be permitted, and may be withdrawn. The present Convention shall be open for signature by all States as of 28 July 2020 and shall enter into force after the thirtieth day after the deposit of its twentieth instrument of ratification.
