How Digital ID & CBDCs remove individual freedom & national sovereignty (P#30)
To understand this, we first need to demystify two very important sounding phrases – fiscal and monetary policy. Bear with me. They are just fancy ways of talking about what a nation does and how it does it.
Fiscal policy (or what government does) is about how much tax we pay and what it’s spent on – infrastructure, community grants, Medicare, NDIS etc.
Monetary policy (or how government does it) is about controlling money supply/ printing, interest rates, employment and inflation.
The important issue around these two things is who controls them.
We currently have public control of fiscal policy and private sector control of monetary policy, albeit that organisations doing the latter have given themselves names that help them pretend to be government, so we don’t consciously realise that they aren’t.
Governments around the world lost control of monetary policy to private banking corporations some centuries back. Various American presidents, from Lincoln to Kennedy have been assassinated for trying to retrieve it. Hitler also tried to do the same and got what he got. So control of monetary policy is a very big deal. One Lord Rothschild said he didn’t care who governed a country so long as he controlled the money. He knew that was the critical thing to do, so he could get whatever he wanted. Just think of your own life and household and the importance of securing your income. That’s your own personal monetary policy. Without that, you can’t get to do or even think about your personal fiscal policy = how to spend it.
Much private sector effort is focused on extracting money (contracts) from government coffers, which is any nation’s biggest honeypot. The private sector can legitimately maximise profits through ingenuity, creativity and innovation. But it can also do so by transferring costs to the public purse, creating monopolies, colluding among themselves and by capturing regulators. Rockefeller once said that it’s not possible to generate great wealth without monopoly. Hence the importance of influencing and capturing government – along with recognising when it’s happening!
Digital ID and CBDCs are simply the next step for private enterprise to seize control of the fiscal policy of all nations, thus acquiring monopoly control of the whole financial system and taking it completely out of public or government control. The opportunities for abuse of the people and supposedly sovereign governments if that happens are obvious, and that is the direction in which we are being not so subtly ‘nudged’ by corporate and media PR = Propaganda.
Controlling the fiscal policy of individuals means controlling what, where and when they (you and I) can spend the artificial Casino-tokenised money our corporate (/ feudal/ slave) masters may allocate/ ration to us. By controlling how all individuals spend their money, they will control the summation of that i.e. how the governments of all nations spend their money. They can disguise it by using grand terms like fiscal policy so that few ordinary people have any idea what they are talking about. It means controlling you – what you are allowed to do, where you are allowed to go, who you are allowed to transact with, whether the locked supermarket shelves will open for you or not, where your money will work and what its expiry date will be, whether you can access your own refrigerator that the IOT can lock, whether you can order a pizza without first passing system analysis of your calories, metabolism, medical and financial records. You will own nothing! You will play with tokens. You will rent everything, which will all be owned by somebody else, who will, of course, grow even more wealthy at your expense and ignorance. You will have to bend your knee to them, comply to their will and whatever capricious mandate they may introduce to further increase sales of more incredible and harmful products packaged up as being good for you or the planet e.g. bugs, crickets, cockroach milk, plastic, synthetic meat, to name some of their more ridiculous offerings.
CBDCs are a totalitarian dream, and the Digital ID is necessary to implement it.
So we must resist introduction of Digital ID if we place any value at all on our freedom.
When offerings come to us in the form of ease and convenience, we just need to recognise them as unsolicited and not for our long-term benefit. We need to decline them and send their advocates packing, regardless of whatever cargo cult type bells, whistles and convenience we are being enticed with.
This issue is so big and global now that we cannot ensure our continued freedom without suffering some pain/ difficulty/ inconvenience. But if done now, it will be nowhere near as bad as the sacrifices our forefathers made with their lives for our freedoms. We have to honour their efforts by being prepared to make some sacrifices ourselves now. We just cannot run the risk of potentially having psychopaths or eugenicists controlling us in this way.
