The greatest tyrannies are always perpetrated in the name of the noblest causes.”—Thomas Paine
The government wants your money.
It will beg, steal or borrow if necessary, but it wants your money any way it can get it.
The government’s schemes to swindle, cheat, scam, and generally defraud taxpayers of their hard-earned dollars have run the gamut from wasteful pork barrel legislation, cronyism and graft to asset forfeiture, costly stimulus packages, and a national security complex that continues to undermine our freedoms while failing to making us any safer.
Americans have also been made to pay through the nose for the government’s endless wars, subsidization of foreign nations, military empire, welfare state, roads to nowhere, bloated workforce, secret agencies, fusion centers, private prisons, biometric databases, invasive technologies, arsenal of weapons, and every other budgetary line item that is contributing to the fast-growing wealth of the corporate elite at the expense of those who are barely making ends meet—that is, we the taxpayers.
This is what comes of those $1.5 trillion spending bills: someone’s got to foot the bill.
Because the government’s voracious appetite for money, power and control has grown out of control, its agents have devised other means of funding its excesses and adding to its largesse through taxes disguised as fines, taxes disguised as fees, and taxes disguised as tolls, tickets and penalties.
No matter how much money the government pulls in, it’s never enough, so the government has come up with a new plan to make it even easier for its agents to seize Americans’ bank accounts.
Make way for the digital dollar.

The crypto fan boys don’t realize they are just the beta testers for the Big Show.
Going to a Digital Currency created by the Federal Reserve along with the elimination of cash could be the biggest loss of freedom in our history and must be resisted by any means necessary.
Imho the digital dollar is a given. It is merely the implementation that is in question. Boston and NY feds have completed early trials with privacy being a serious goal. The reports are online via search engines.
The young have fallen victim to this and think its wonderfully convenient until the government shuts you down because you said something or did something they didn’t like. Life sustaining Control is essential, food, water shelter and money.
Or the government makes any monthly payments, i.e. retirement, social security, welfare etc. have an expiration date.
Use your January SS payment all up by February or we give you less in February. Or, whatever you don’t spend each month of your digital dollar, we put back into the “general” fund.
Far from it. Those in the crypto community realize more than anybody that CBDC’s are fascist coin. They must be stopped at all costs.
The whole point of crypto from the start has been to build decentralized currency that is beyond the power and control of any government. Seeing how well it works, governments have glommed on to this technology and are now trying to use it to grab far more power for themselves in the form of CBDCs.
Yes the young have - their digit tech is part of their body now. So they are ripe to adjust to anything government controls/ does on line.
I’ve resisted cell phones after using one for a month and realizing I do not want to be contacted 24/7 and all that goes with having it. But that will one day have to change again as cash etc is evntually all in digital form.
What if Satoshi Nakamoto was an NSA sleeper?
That would seem to be a strange leap considering Crypto Currency runs directly against centralized power.
That’s the boob bait. Every new gov “thing” promises the opposite as boob bait, otherwise the people would say “No thanks”.
This is even worse than the MyRA that Obama announced back in 2014 or so.
First they do a “study.” Then they create a federal “crypto” currency. Then they force all the others to conform to the federal standard. Then they make the federal the only one. Then they eliminate cash. Then it’s their dream come true. They will take whatever they want from your accounts and give some of that money to their favored friends.
Or just keep it for themselves. “Well, we have to pay down the debt so we are going to be reappropriating “excess savings” in your accounts for ‘the greater good’…”
I’m just not buying that. Bitcoin is not subject to that kind of manipulation by governments. The entire movement is very libertarian leaning. It runs directly against everything the centralizers want.
Oh no? How about they MANIPULATE it to OFF, BYE, BYE. China and India already did that. Governments are not worried, they could shut it down at any time.
What we need is a currency totally free from government control and that includes the US government. Crypto’s shortcomings is that if can be deleted with the touch of a button.
This could very well be true. Volunteer for the state parks as a campground host. The managers all told us that they are allocated so much budget for the year. If there is any funds left at the end of the year, that extra is taken away and they receive that much less for the following year. So, the managers all use up that budget no matter what.
