Think tank time folks... It's coming, there is no stopping it. Now is the time to address it and prepare for it. All ideas welcome and I have few of my own. Starting with and including secret organizations and local black market "exchange" banks backed by hard assets such as equity, title loans, and local credit organizations. Local exchanges with their own local physical currency. Let's take it out of their hands and keep it in local hands just like the Mafia does.
And anyone who breaks their oath of loyalty and silence gets Indian justice. They get burned at the stake, tied over Anthills, or skinned alive and dumped out in Walmart parking lots still alive. I don't give a damned how "brutal and savage" you might think these methods are. But THEY WORK to install fear into those who might snitch. It only needs to be done a couple times to set the example, and then the example lasts for years and years.
Screw them and their laws. They are breaking laws by even creating this concept. The only way to fight back is fire against fire. It is going to be a matter of survival and war. There are no rules or laws in war. You cheat to survive period. An unjust immoral law is not a law bound by morality. They take a swing at us, we take a swing back. There are no rules in this war for basic survival...
Thank you :)
Suppose, just suppose, old silver (and gold) coins became the only way to acquire food or clothing.
Once you appeared in public and handed over one of your shiny objects to a local merchant, how long do you imagine you would survive, having declared to the local bad guys that you had a stash of those things?
my immediate thought is to protect the homestead.
As soon as cbdc is on the immediate horizon, maybe pay the property taxes 4 years in advance. This is a biblical timeline for me, but I subscribe to a mid trib rapture. I cannot prepare for seven years, but I can plan for 3.5 years.
This way, the homestead can gather the water and food plantings to survive the storm. During that period, everything is barter. I cannot save those who will not save themselves.
...it’s going to get ugly very fast when this rolls out and most will be caught up in the beast system by default.
Prepare accordingly is my thought
Well God does mention it, if you believe in that sort of thing. If you don't then God help you.
“I’ve never, never understood the people who, in response to invasions of privacy, especially by the government, say “I’ve got nothing to hide.””
It is easy to understand. Government is our friend, Trust Government, Government is God and protector, sacrifice your person and property for the better good, Patriotism is obeying Government orders without question, Ooh Rah...
You know when I served overseas the military often issued MPC for use in the PX and to convert into local cash. They frequently locked everything down and declared your MPC to be invalid and you could then exchange your old MPC for the new stuff but not without an explanation of where and how you obtained it. That also removed MPC from the local inhabitants hands.
Paper money will be worthless period. Gold or silver coins will always have value.
They are going to apply ESG to everyone’s account. Soon they will be giving you a score and reward and punish you through your account.
There will no longer be cash, so they will know everything you buy. Where and when. Nothing you do or buy will ever be private.
That leaves you with bartering and I imagine they will make that illegal and if you get caught, you are going to jail.
And what of cash becomes worthless?
They’re paint in a system which may have no value if everything it converted to CBDC. It would be like exchanging sea shells, or grains of sand.
I have the capability to be much worse than any ‘local bad guy’; they are generally stoned or drugged on any given day.
I believe it was FDR that confiscated people’s gold. I figure this could happen again.
People in Venezuela were so thrilled after being able to eat the animals in the zoo that they overwhelmingly re-elected their king.
Sounds like a good plan... We have the same here. :)
911, The oxymoron Freedom Act, perfectly fine for the Government to search my underwear drawer to protect me from those terrorists under every bed...
Yep the mash is the hard thing to make, needing all that sugar makes you easy to track.
Not really they just walk into a store fill up their bag and leave, no cash required, in Kalifornia.
That will be your choice but what happens next will not be your choice just your consequence.
Clearly you don't live in California.
It’s Ok with you to be forced by government to own a phone and use a phone app to hand your next door neighbor the two bucks you owe him?
Think about that...
We are going to have a thriving black market! Barter, silver coins, booze, cigarettes, etc.
So they’re not coming after you(yet), so what’s the problem.
