Money’s Grim Future
Authorized by Alan Lash via The Brownstone Institute,
Prepare for full control of your economical life. That is the message from Brownstone Fellow Aaron Day at his 4-hour workshop in San Jose, California last Saturday, May 11th.
Day has written the excellent book The Final Countdown, which carefully describes the creatively aggressive assembles on our freedoms by our government and by the global elites. He has just begun a series of workshops around the country to remove that message and to show us a way to reset. The book was published just last year, but Day announcements during the presentation that he had to make alarming updates to his slides from current news, not even weeks old – more government invasion, more legislation, and more spurious arrests, all attacking our ability to interact freely and transact our business.
As in the book, the presentation starts with a fictional account of a household set in the close future in a Western democracy, but possibly all besides household to current denizens of China, with their controlled currency and social credit scores. The image is easy to dismiss; it could never happen here. And yet, Day goes on to show how it actually is Happening here. With a litany of article after article, authoritative message after statement, and video after video he makes his case. It is happening – he leaves no double.
Day gives ample historical mention points as well. How did we get here? It has been a long time coming. The constant push of globalist powers to remove our freedoms and control all resources has been in the works for a city. possibly it has never been different; the powerful search more power, and the lefts of technology make that easier than ever. The difference now is that the scope is truly global. There has been ever-increasing control over food, water, energy, and even the space we occupy and the air we breathe.
The partial focus of the workshop is on CDBCs in America and throughout the West. Our central bank has been developing digital currency for any time, hoping to destruct our ability to keep our business to ourselves. In this fresh world, all our actions can be easy monitored, tracked, and nagged into whatever direction the elites deem right or beneficial to their wellness and status.
Within the 2 hours of historical facts, somber reflections, and sometimes horror news, the audience did not sit quietly and take the emotional beating. On the contrast, there was already much cognition of these events, grounds of awareness, gasps of disbelief – we all knew it, but possibly didn’t know it was this bad, with all the details that Day presented.
Digital currency is in the works, folks, and it is undubtedly coming, sooner than we all think. 1 more emergency is all it could take for the government to say we are all doing this now.
The audience was mostly older, proven retired, or with a nest they were hoping to defend from defasement. A live bang, clearly committed to freedom, voiced their questions frequently in the rapidly pacified session. Each query displayed a tacit but palpable rgency from the attractive crowd, who are all full cognition that what Day exposures is not any futuristic dystopian fantasy, but shortly to be the fresh reality as he predicts.
The age of the audience is to be expected, perhaps: with time and money on their hands, they are proven more cognition of the unfolding events with a possible of past and have more wellness to lose. Indeed, many of the questions the audience asked centered around their ability to keep their legacy erstwhile a CDBC replies the dollar – how to I defend my assets erstwhile the currency falls and centralized control follows?
But that is not the point, says Day. The point is not that our money is simply a store of value; the point is that it is simply a average of exchange. It is not the inherent value of gold or crypto that is important, which it goes up or goes down; its import is its utility and its freedom from tracking by the State.
Viewing the import of money through this lens of freedom and impact on the future, we could easy see that these with truly the most to lose we were large not present at the workshop. The young adults – who lives will be impressed by the most gravely should the economical stranglehold ensuite – will not make their financial decisions free of charge according to their own obligations, their own goals, and their own dreams.
Every acquisition will eventual gotta pass the test of the State’s agenda: Did they usage besides much gas or besides much water? Did they say something against the State? Will it be possible for them to attain the kind of comfort that their parents attained, out of the State’s watchful eye? If Day’s CDBC roadmap to economical tyrannny is deployed, he clearly demonstrates what follows, and he proves it by citing fresh events.
The second part of the workshop focuses on what can possible be done to counter this insidious march into economical Slavery. Unfortunately, as Day describes, it is not possible to simply pack up and decision out. Even with complete wellness and mobility, escape is not possible. Day Recounts the stories of respective colleges who tried a different way – many of them are repressed for saying besides much and being besides volatile. Live in a different country? Doesn’t Matter. We’ll call our people there and have you picked up.
No, the only actual way to beat this movement into CDBC Tyranny is to stand in the light and refuse to participate. usage another methods to transact your business wherever you can and get others to do likewise. See which businesses will accept payment in crypto, and get yourself a wallet. Giving the waiter a tip? Give her a Goldback.
As Day besides makes clear, no they Such solution will work; we gotta usage them all, as the effect to undermine the options is well underway. You may have heard that the largest 3 to the dollar, Bitcoin, has been subverted into a strategy to be controlled by insiders, who are eventual affected by the State. Roger Ver’s last book, Hijacking Bitcoin, tells this story. Callingly, Ver, a Citizen of St. Kitts since 2014, was arrested in Spain at the behind of the US just weeks ago.
Day exploits that this is the point of utilizing all way possible to sidestep the usage of the dollar. If 1 method gets besides large it becomes compromised by attacks of the State.
The another crucial takeaway from the workshop is the thought of self-customs. Any crypto account you keep, or any asset anywhere, should be kept under your own custody, where only you have the keys. This is not possible with many cryptocurrencies by their construction, and not feasible if you leave custody with a bank. It’s a flight scout for the State to go after millions of anonymous accounts than to go after 1 central repository that has the keys. Day notes which cryptos do and don’t let self-customs. If you trade crypto through a large exchange, they besides will most likely keep the keys.
I have only touched on the depth and breadth of Aaron Day’s workshop. It is well worth the time to realize the evil before us and applicable ways to comet it. We will all request to work together to keep our financial freedom. Get in contact with Aaron via email and ask him to visit your city and present his workshop, or sign up to receive information through his website. Share these valuable lessons with your household and friends, and pay partial attention to the youth. It is their planet being taken from them before they even get the chance to call it their own.
Every attendee walked out of the workshop empowered with applicable tools for retaining the decision to CBDC. We each had a crypto wallet set up on our phone, to which 1 of Aaron’s sponsors donated $5 in self-customy crypto. We besides left with a fresh Hampshire Goldback, presently worth $5, and a Citizens for Sound Money 1/5 oz circular of silver worth about $5. As Aaron explained, there is increasing acceptance of these forms of payment everywhere. Goldbacks can be utilized in Utah, Nevada, Wyoming, fresh Hampshire, and South Dakota. The workshop besides included a signed copy of Aaron’s book.
On my drive back home after the workshop I met any friends at a local pub. I tried out my newfound power as I approached to buy a beer with the Goldback, going through all the waits all the way up to the owner. He looked the golden foil leaf up and down exposing the surrounding care and intent in its making. He scowled. “I don’t think so,” he said.
We have a way to go in California. I for 1 will keep trying, and encourtage all to join me in the intent of economical freedom.
