Diana and Simone , go do your virtue signalling somewhere else . My guess is you find that part of the article as worthy of your attention but you missed the information that might awaken you to what the globalist have in mind for you .
Only you assumed the spit roast had a gender of your imagination . Go protest porn hub . Take your emotional baggage with u
We already have digital currency. The danger is centralized control of our digital currencies. Trudeau did not have a CBDC when he used the digital currencies implemented by Canadian banks and credit card companies to freeze the assets of the Truckers and their supporters earlier this year. In the US, we must block government's use of private companies to enforce its censorship and other oppressive, authoritarian policies. Ultimately, we need to ban the use of "public-private" partnerships to bypass the Bill of Rights. The BoR must be directly applied to ALL corporate entities, since all are chartered (created) by some level of government. We must start recognizing all corporate entities, whether for profit or not for profit, as part of government. Their violations of the BoR are therefore unconstitutional and prohibited regardless whether they are guided by recognized government structures and individuals, or have simply been dreamed up by officials of the corporation itself.
Smashing corporate violations of the BoR is a necessary but insufficient measure that must be taken. Individual human beings are also capable of mass formation and manipulation. But I can cope with isolation and ostracism from individuals, even when they band together loosely as a group. What I can't cope with is when such a group enjoys massive financial backing chartered by government and uses enforceable group power to isolate me rather than the free choice of individuals. We must recognize that any attempt to control speech or other legal behavior through corporate power is prima facie government interference with those rights.
Regarding illegal immigration, if the US stopped meddling in the internal eco-political affairs of our southern neighbors, there would be no incentive for them to take refuge in the US. It's US foreign and drug policies that generate the chaos immigrants are fleeing. Of course, employers like the low wages and poor working conditions undocumented immigrants are willing to accept to escape the chaos, but the migration is pushed by chaos, not pulled by better conditions in the US.
Gee, you use PornHub as a resource? [The roasted pig pic, and text to explain his way-cool woman-abuse knowledge.] This is why we say there's no difference between the men of the right and the men of the left: Y'all glory in your hatred of women, except as useful-to-you orifices. Unsubscribing. I had expected better.
So true. CBDC, particularly when it completely replaces cash as we know it, is the gateway to digital ID, social credit scoring, and rest of the totalitarian parade of horribles that China has already had the "free trial" of. We must NEVER let them get rid of cash!
Some theorists put UBI (Universal Basic Income) in this category too, which I think is an erroneous category error. A genuine UBI is truly unconditional with no strings attached, and need not be done with CBDC at all. Just look at Alaska, for example. I believe the best way to prevent the oligarchs from implementing a CBDC based one WITH strings attached is to beat them to it with a non-CBDC one with NO strings attached. (The oligarchs' nefarious (per)version of that idea should NOT be called UBI.)
Good stuff, Bruce. I'm wondering what you and readers think we can DO to resist CBDC's. I saw your note on Children's Health Defense, where other commenters were saying loud "No's" to no cash. But how do you say no, or where, if the switch to digital currency happens. It's really a rhetorical question.
My own answer is to use my voice and share my process of working this out, as clearly as I can. Risky truth-telling by choice is the best I know. What's happening is "emergent" . . . in systems the outcomes can't be predicted. And we individuals are part of the system, actors and players.
