WOW! I can hardly believe there are people here who don’t see the incredible problem this is.

This is the last step needed for us to all be subjects in a totally surveilled state. You will have no privacy. Every transaction you make will be recorded. Where you are, what you are buying or selling, for how much money, and to or from whom. And the tyranny watching how you are living will control whether or not you can spend your money, if they even let you keep it. Taxes will be collected through the system. Rationing of fuel, alcohol, tobacco, firearms, ammunition, carbohydrates, meats, whatever! will be enforced!

Just WOW!

“The only thing “the authorities” care about is taxing our monetization.”

You don’t really believe that, do you? Power lusting “authorities” won’t control what they let you spend your money on?

These are the same “authorities” who want total firearms confiscation, crushing of the 1st Amendment, etc.

Really?

I’ve made wine from unconventional home-grown sugar sources. It shouldn’t be a problem.

‘Most weeks…I am putting $80+ into the safe. I am not unique.’

And when we’re given, say 180 days, to put all of our cash assets into banks before the banks will no longer honor cash, what can you do with all the fancy butt wipe you now have?

You talk about how we should treat snitches to the barter systems. When economies are driven underground, the people who are most willing to use force will run EVERYTHING.

Paper money isn’t worth defending or getting worked up about.

One good thing about digital money, is that bums will no longer go up and demand you give them money.

I have that base covered.

And we are not in an occupied country.

I don’t think you guys understand what digital currency is.

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.

Digital will happen. Question is, what kind of digital? Hopefully the answer is decentralized digital coin, one that has some protection from government definition and manipulation. A number of the top more legit cryptos could do this.

Bitcoin interlocked with some of the top decentralized cryptos that have high transaction speeds and serious security.

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.

Fine with me. I don't want a completely cashless economy. We'll be tracked with our every purchase.

Ah, the old, “If you have nothing to hide, no worries.” Until one day, you’re buying a case of beer, and the cashier says, “Your card payment is denied. The computer says that you are entitled to only one six-pack per week. A whole case is unhealthy.”

Gun owners can also do trade, using ammo as currency.

What’s the best way to keep seeds? I know planting is probably the very best....but, for those who aren’t/can’t planting all of their seeds, at this time.

I have read about thousand years old seeds being planted, and, producing plants/fruits.

TIA.
