The major issue is that there's no practical difference between dollars printed out of thin air and dollars printed digitally. The 'experts' can pretend that the digi dollar will stabilize the system, but that system is destined to crash exactly the same as this one is -- this is just another way to kick the can down the road.
I pay in cash as much as possible. If my local chain grocer goes to electronic payments only, I’ll find an independent grocer that accepts greenbacks. Screw this Fedcoin; credit cards are bad enough.
B-I-N-G-O, bad cat. They are employing the same strategy they used to coerce compliance with COVID tyranny: manufactured crisis for the old Problem-Reaction-Solution trick. And CBDC/digital ID was the ultimate end game all along.
#MistakesWereNOTMade, once again. And anyone who hasn't watched Tess Lawrie's knee-buckling performance of my poem should immediately spend 4 minutes doing so. I guarantee you won't regret it and will want to share it with everyone on the planet ASAP:
But Bitcoin is the lord and saviour from this, surely. All the smart people who know lots and lots of jargon says so.
Funny. Bitcoin has been around how many years now, and the enthusiasts still don't grasp that Bitcoin was and is used as a beta-test version of digital currency under state/corporate control.
From a historical perspective, this is the same thing that happened when states who allowed (read: had at some point in time been forced to) private minting of coinage withdrew that privilege, sometimes forcefully.
Wonder if they'll nullify accounts and then put the same amount into everyone's to give every US citizen equity and a level starting position? Could easily be combined with a system where you upon becoming a legal adult get access to a sort-of starting fund that's been held for you (i.e. not activated) until then. Obviously with loop-holes for the 1%-ers, such as certain investments, assets et c not counting towards this "citizen's credit system".
We had a saying here, back in the day:
"You can't vote the bankers out of office".
But hey hey, is much different from communism, yes?
Literally the purpose of Bitcoin (not Crypto). Reference to the bank bailouts of 2008/2009 are included in the Genesis block by Satoshi.
Bitcoin is trustless, permissionless and peer-to-peer. The first truly digital scarce asset. I encourage everyone to diligently research and understand it, then start buying it as hedge against constant monetary debasement, and learn to take complete custody of it (to a hardware wallet).
The planning ability of this group tells me that this isn’t going to as smoothly as a flip of a switch - in fact I think it’s going to blow up everything (even more so if it works). CBDC’s don’t fulfill the role of money .... it turns money into a subscription - that’s going to lead buildings being burned down
Considering how poorly the private sector has handled digital transactions, I have no reason to believe the government can do any better. Quite the opposite, actually.
For those who think they can just opt out of this, do not fool yourselves.
Over a year ago my family stumbled in to a nasty surprise. We were nearing the end of a city hike when my oldest kid, then 8, suddenly needed to use the restroom right NOW. We were in a newly opened shopping area underneath elevated train tracks in Tokyo. I quickly found the restrooms, but they were all “QR CODE ONLY” restrooms. To use the restrooms, you first must obtain the QR Code from a qualified merchant in the shopping area. To do so, you first must make a qualifying purchase with from the qualified merchant. Once the transaction is complete, the merchant will prove the QR Code for you to scan with your idiot phone. You then take your idiot phone to the QR Code controlled door and have the QR Code scanner scan the code from your phone’s screen. Let that sink in a bit. All of it.
I do not own an idiot phone. Kid is crying out that they need to use the toilet. “Luckily”, my wife has an idiot phone. After inquiring with a few shops, we find one that is qualified to provide us the QR Code necessary to allow our kid to use the restroom....after the qualifying purchase was made. Now, imagine this incorporated into the ESG system.
As far as every one entering it voluntarily, what else have we already voluntarily entered? We voluntarily allow all sorts of tracking even when we turn it off or decline offers to share data just by carrying the devices we use. Our computers are designed to spy on us and they do. Our banks spy on us for the governments as do our credit cards. While this may not be in use in the US, for certain uses, cash is tracked as easily, perhaps more so, than other transactions in Japan. The most common form of payment of wages and salary is through direct deposit with the most common and preferred to the point of penalizing those who don’t method of paying monthly bills is through automatic allotments. I do not like this and receive as many bills through t he mail to pay via cash as possible, and pay more to do so. However, the bills come with a barcode that probably displays all my information on the screen of the convenience store’s register and certainly collects and sends all the information including location, date and time I paid the bill. Simple to implement in the US or anywhere.
While one of our local supermarkets is pushing back and only accepts cash, the number of registers accepting cash at other super markets and convenience stores is decreasing. The fear of catching covid has driven this still cash based society to embrace a “cashless” system. I am of the opinion that one of the many goals of the panic is the destruction of cash as legal tender and is using all the tactics laid out in this article.
There is no hiding from this. It must be fought and defeated.
If you wondered how they were going to pay for that debt, here you have it. Once you put "your" money in this bank, it's now *their* money to use as they please.
But if you think the really wealthy people will put their money in this bank, you're hitting the catnip a little too hard. This is just for the plebes, even if they have some money.
I started smelling something fishy at the beginning of Covid, when I started began to see the signs, “Due to a national coin shortage, we no longer can accept cash.” Glad to see that some people finally see what’s happening.
This is THE topic behind a lot of the other crises we are enduring nonstop these days. These dumbasses/evil geniuses (take your pick) have way way way bankrupted the country ( As have their equally venal counterparts in various other countries) and the peanut butter has just about broken the fan. So what’s next, fuckery-wise?
CBDC basically in one fell swoop turns all of us into slaves because if successful they can track you and penalize you and nudge you and rip you off at a microscopic level every nanosecond. Raiding retirement accounts? Some type of global debt jubilee? Repricing gold again? How do you escape- paper dollars
are not a long term solution. Crypto, gold, bullets, sacks of rice, and single malt whiskey?
Welcome to the black market, gringos. They need to pass laws. They can’t just mandate this crap. But who has faith in the New Jersey Generals up in Congress to win this one for the little guy? Not this guy. I’m thinking a farm in Sardinia or the Azores is looking pretty good right now. ....What a colossal pain in the ass these people are.
I strongly disagree with your statement “did they set it up on purpose? i doubt it.” The FED’s and USG’s policies of massive monetary expansion during relatively low interest rates and then historically rapid interest increases could only end in bank failures. The flood of government cash created the demand for a lot of relatively low interest rate debt instruments that got crushed in our current high(er) rate environment. And that’s what happened. To paraphrase Rahn “Don’t let a crisis go to waste and if you don’t have a crisis, get one.”

Castro Jr already tested it against the truckers. The same people lining up for boosters will be lining up for CBDCs.

More than happy to help anyone interested.

"Crisis By Digital Consensus" (CBDC)
Watch........
I am increasingly convinced that none of this is in our power to control or stop anymore and the choices are either submission or kamikaze.
Buy copper rounds, silver and or gold. Think negotiable
