land patent and tax

The land patent, not a deed, is the only true evidence of absolute land ownership that cannot be seized for debt or taxes. Modern mortgage systems like MERS have broken chains of title by trading mortgages like stocks without recording transfers, making it impossible for banks to prove ownership. Land patents bypass electronic records entirely by tracing ownership to sovereign grants, removing property from government jurisdiction and preventing it from being used as financial collateral.
