Drastic measures. Like our Founding Fathers employed to form our country. That way.
Of course, we can accept servitude and oppression. But I'm not made that way. What is the motto of the State of New Hampshire? Oh yeah, "Live Free or Die".
You're just trying to make feel better.... yes, I agree. Once President Trump was removed, I knew we would be in for a bad ride. And I was right.You're already not free; you just noticed the bars of the cage you're in as it shrinks.
Trump? Wha?? Oh - I was talking about how people lose their freedom the moment they rely on someone/something outside of their control for their own survival.You're just trying to make feel better.... yes, I agree.

I agree with that too. I was just pointing out that Trump was helping lift the yoke and then the evil ones stole our government.Trump? Wha?? Oh - I was talking about how people lose their freedom the moment they rely on someone/something outside of their control for their own survival.
A bigger cage is still a cage -I agree with that too. I was just pointing out that Trump was helping lift the yoke and then the evil ones stole our government.
Then you might want to GTFO now *.Ha ha ah it happens. A country, a state, a county, a city are all in a manor of speaking "cages".... It's almost impossible to find a a place to live that is completely "free". And those actual places REQUIRE that you are completely self sufficient as there are zero support mechanisms.
And this is pertinent to the OP as CBDC is a lock on the cage.

I'm getting out of U.S. Dollars as fast as possible.
China and Russia know it's going to pop.
What's your plan for when retailers/vendors/etc are forced to accept only FRD?
Ah - my question was insufficient, but your reply covered what I was asking - and as long as you're 'allowed' to access the internet - converting to FRD to make purchases should work.Same as now.
I keep my savings in Bitcoin & Monero, then convert as much as I need to Dollars, and send them to my Discover checking account for spending.

Paper money isn't money. Seriously.Might be a stupid question, but how will gold or bitcoin be "valued" if paper money is worthless?
No value is ever set. Value is subjective. Value is a personal opinion, always.So, there's no set value?
1. Is your guess that we'll each have an individual federal account?
I've read the World Bank, IMF, and Federal Reserve white papers. What they are working toward is a completely, and only, digital financial system where every human interaction like food, energy consumption, and financial transactions is monitored and controlled.
The purpose of that is so they can implement a Social Credit System like the one China has implemented, only way faster, and in much finer detail, with zero possibilities for evasion.
If you've ever seen the 1971 Robert Duval, George Lucas movie THX 1138, it will be exactly like that, only with much smarter A.I. technology. Food controlled. Sex controlled. Work controlled. Constant calming drugs administered by force...
People who think this is crazy or impossible haven't studied the white papers and technology for 30 years like I have. They still think government actions like replacement migration, "green energy", and Anti-Fascist riots are "oopsie-daisies" due to government incompetence or cowardice. They are not.
People who think some 1776 style "revolution" will prevent it are clueless as to how deeply Federal Spending controls Americans. I'm not because my formal University education focused on Public Finance. I've been studying it since 1988.
Private, free market currencies like Bitcoin and Monero are the technological weapons we are developing to resist that future. We are still in the very early stages of development.
Total control is never really possible. There's always a blackmarket. You just need to get comfortable with being a criminal. Those type of systems never last for more than a few generations, too.If it is to be as you described, I dont see how having any wealth whatsoever would help. It wont be parallel; not possible.

Everyone should be building and diversifying their wealth now so they can not only survive, but help their loved ones, too. The only people who are completely trapped are the ones who poured all their energy into the equity of the house they live in, and/or a government sanctioned retirement account. It's good to have those things, but if that's all you have start to diversify now.
Small flasks of Everclear, cigarettes, etc. It's amazing how people will give you what you want if you can feed their vices.What would be outside of their eventual control that one could diversify into?
Tangible and/or productive things. Gold, silver, lead, crypto, capital goods, skills, natural resources, community, property you physically control.What would be outside of their control that one could diversify into?
