:            an OSA NW Order on 6 February 1988.)


        The original date of issue is during the era of the Guardian office (before the Snow White Trials in 1979). This proves that Hubbard dictated Guardian Office orders, despite Scientology's claims to its members (and the U.S. Government) that Suppressive Persons [radicals outside of Scientology's control] infiltrated the Guardian Office and were responsible for Snow White.

        Miscavige, his lawyers, and his Public Relations representatives said that all Guardian Orders were "cancelled", so naturally the cult has to reissue many as OSA NW Orders. Simple, really. Keep the "tech". Just rename it something else to go with the illusion that the criminals (GO staff) were ousted, and the "off-source tech" issues (Guardian Orders) were cancelled. In parallel, rename the GO the "Office of Special Affairs". It's semantics, that's all -- an "acceptable" truth.

        The later issue date is after Hubbard's death in 1984. This proves that Scientology did not disband the Guardian's Office, despite Scientology's claims to the contrary. In reality, both GO and OSA are the same Scientology entity, internally named Division 20.

: suggests that the only reason a government would have to rely on 
: taxation would be if its own ability to produce were in a condition of 
: non-existence.]


        This paragraph reflects Hubbard's Exchange Principle, which simply put is that to receive something of value, one must give something of value. Hubbard obviously valued his Technology, since he charged $350,000 for The Bridge through the OT VIII level. While the Exchange Principle is nothing new to capitalists, apparently Hubbard felt the need to teach this principle to his adherents.

        Hubbard here suggests that Government should function only on Usage Fees. While Conservatives in the USA would agree, it lacks what Liberals call "fairness", since everyone would have to pay for the government services received. Lacking in Hubbard's utopian government is any support for the "downstat" or needy, since it violates the Exchange Principle.

        Thus, Hubbard is left with the conclusion that the Government taxes individuals (getting something for nothing) because it is in the Ethics Condition of "Non-Existence". For each Ethics condition, there is a formula for moving to the next higher condition. To move from Non-Existence, the formula is ???? [need to check the archives].

        Of course, the Church of Scientology's contentious relationship with the USA Internal Revenue Service is legendary. According to a NY Times article, the Church of Scientology sponsored up to 2000 simultaneous lawsuits on behalf of Scientologists against the IRS before receiving tax exemption in 1993. 

      : 
: [ Hubbard suggests that governments that force businesses and individuals to pay 
: taxes have gone "fascist." ]


        Hubbard here lays the foundation for not paying taxes to the government. It is OK to not pay taxes because only Fascist governments require involuntary payments. This may be part of the basis of the 2000 lawsuits against the IRS - Scientologists were simply following church policy.

        Hubbard, a product of 1950s McCarthyism, looked for communists (and fascists) in every corner.

        Not paying taxes is official church policy.

        This line describes the Scientology management hierarchy:

        1. L. Ron Hubbard dictates to the Church of Scientology International.
        2. CSI dictates to Jane Kember (?) [Worldwide Guardian or head of G.O.].
        3. jk dictates to "ta", who is probably the person charged with typesetting this OSA Network Order. Note: typographical errors appear in the original.

        Hubbard is clearly controlling the actions of the Guardian's Office, despite Scientology's claims to the contrary during the Snow White trial. Hubbard also controlled the Office of Special Affairs.
