Why are the above methods of waiving sovereign immunity and the rights of sovereignty associated with them nearly 13 universally recognized by every country, court, and nation on earth? Because: 14

1. These rights come from God, and God is universally recognized by people and cultures all over the world. 15 2. Everyone deserves, needs, and wants as much authority, autonomy, and control over their own life and property as they 16 can get, consistent with the equal rights of others. In other words, they have a right of being self-governing. Of this 17 subject, one of our most revered Presidents, Teddy Roosevelt, said: 18

“We of this mighty western Republic have to grapple with the dangers that spring from popular self-government tried on a scale incomparably vaster than ever before in the history of mankind, and from an abounding

material prosperity greater also than anything which the world has hitherto seen.

As regards the first set of dangers, it behooves us to remember that men can never escape being governed. Either they must govern themselves or they must submit to being governed by others. If from lawlessness or fickleness, from folly or self-indulgence, they refuse to govern themselves then most assuredly in the end they will have to be governed from the outside. They can prevent the need of government from without only by showing they possess the power of government from within. A sovereign cannot make excuses for his failures; a sovereign must accept the responsibility for the exercise of power that inheres in him; and where, as is true in our Republic, the people are sovereign, then the people must show a sober understanding and a sane and steadfast purpose if they are to preserve that orderly liberty upon which as a foundation every republic must

3. You cannot deserve or have a “right” to what you are not willing to give in equal measure to others. This is the 32 essence of what Christians call “The Golden Rule ”, which Jesus Himself revealed as follows: 33

“ Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. ”

Everyone understands the concept of “explicit consent”, because everyone understands the idea of exercising your right to 36 contract in order to exchange some of your rights to obtain something you deem valuable. Usually, explicit consent 37 requires a written contract of some kind in order to be enforceable against an otherwise “foreign sovereign”. The part of 38 the consent equation that most people have trouble with is the idea of “implied consent”. 39

“ Implied consent. That manifested by signs, actions, or facts, or by inaction or silence , which raise a presumption that the consent has been given. For example, when a corporation does business in a state it impliedly consents to be subject to the jurisdiction of that state's courts in the event of tortious conduct, even though it is not incorporated in that state. Most every state has a statute implying the consent of one who drives upon its highways to submit to some type of scientific test or tests measuring the alcoholic content of the driver's blood. In addition to implying consent, these statutes usually provide that if the result of the test shows that the alcohol content exceeds a specified percentage, then a rebuttable presumption of intoxication arises. ”
