Re: Bundys victims of Constitution-violating government tyranny
Given that the "point of principle" is not paying money, and that the "Sovereign Citizen" movement is heavily into tax evasion and dubious legal manoeuvring to get out of debts it seems very, very likely that greed is behind it.
I think it more likely that the "Sovereign Citizen" stupidity is behind the assertion that. Indy is being denied access to lawyers. It's entirely possible that that comes down to Bundy rejecting lawyers who give him sensible advice rather than going along with the crazy cargo cult law he prefers..

Do you know what the "change" was in 1993 that Bundy was reacting to? Something changed with the fees but I dunno what.
From what I read the fees were still below the market rate.

Then 15 years or so goes by and they're all: "Now you owe us a million dollars".
I very much doubt that. More likely after 15 years of trying everything else to get him to pay his debts, they finally take him to court.
