Beware The ‘Big Brother’ Digital Dollar That Will Take Your Freedom

If Gov't Digital Currency is mandated and exclusive, America is done.

You'll never be able to drive more than half a tank of gas from your house, as quantity and frequency will be restricted.

[frank ballenger]

Heard one line about the cashless online society that you will be allowed spending of the value only to a deadline date after which the government will make it expire. For spending in ways the social credit scoring says you can spend it.

No State shall make anything but Gold and Silver Coin a tender in payments of debts

[Old Yeller]

Freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose. That is when humans will seek revenge.

[READINABLUESTATE]

No more garage sales. All private transactions will be reduced to barter.

I’m not sure if that’s a good idea. China has yet to actually make it work, and if it can’t work in China...

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis refers to the idea as a “wolf in wolf’s clothing.” Both DeSantis and insurgent Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have rightly raised the issue in the presidential campaign and have been smeared by the corporate press for deliberately “misconstruing” the clearly stated intentions of the Biden administration to move toward a federal digital currency.

Intensions be darned.

Intensions of a law are meaningless once laws are passed.

The intensions of the IRS, the FDA, the FBI, and endless numbers of other Fed agencies were good at their creation.

Time passes and powers grow.

And their is the problem that no congress can put obligations or limits on any future congress.

And we all know that once a government entity is created it is nearly impossible to destroy.

Much better to never create the monster than try to uncreate it later. Intensions

Why is it whenever I hear something similar it always brings to mind that one lone dude standing in the way of that tank in Tiananmen Square, Beijing, China in 1989?

[ridesthemiles]

NONE OF THIS WILL BE MORE CONVENIENT OR MORE AFFORDABLE

[rktman]

Sort of like “the mark” in order to buy or sell. Weird huh?

[DPMD]

North Dakota is considering dig money? North Dakota? Doug Burgum country? The great conservative?

[Chode]

for some reason, they never touched Cathy Buckle...

[Chode]

BELAY THAT... wrong thread

[mabarker1]

? Hypothetically speaking: the States that block this, does it mean that the people in that State are protected from the cbdcscam or are the Bank Accounts (Online Banking Direct Depositor’s) where the Bank Headquarters are protected and therefore people who are Bank Customers in other States are protected from this crap 💩?

All you have to do is Check with the Chicoms on how digital currency works they started in 2020, so the knuckle head in Puzzle Palace wants to do it .

Do you have money in the bank? Because if you do, it belongs to the bank - you are a shareholder of the bank's assets. When the feds go to digital dollars, that is what you will receive from your I.O.U. promises by the bank. Scary times ahead.

[Georgia Girl 2]

The Federal Reserve is on life support. They don’t have the money to launch a digital currency system. Even if they did very soon They will be gone and we will be on the QFS system along with the rest of the world.

I’m assuming since you’re so worried about it that you have already rolled your 401k and IRA into gold and silver. In addition you’ve transferred the bulk of your bank assets into hard assets like property, food etc and only keep enough cash in the bank to pay monthly bills.
