Digital Currencies & Rations


Armstrong Economics Blog/War Re-Posted Mar 18, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Dear Mr. Armstrong
A question that is worrying so many…
Will programmable central bank digital currencies be successful once introduced?
Kind regards G

ANSWER: Reliable sources are saying that they intend to (1) cancel all paper currency, (2) confiscate all cryptocurrency, (3) impose rationing, (4) wage World War III. Will CB digital currency be successful? Yes and No. They will impose it by sheer force and do everything in their power to attack black markets. They will fail in this endeavor for everything relies upon the power grid. If an adversary takes out less than 10 strategic power stations, the grid will fail and so will all money transactions.

Germany in World War II counterfeited the currency of Great Britain to undermine the currency value as a tactic to win the war. Today, you just target the power grid and that will kill the economy faster and far more sufficient than ever before. The black market will probably involve canned for and silver coins dated pre-1965.

During WWII, Americans were asked to make sacrifices in many ways including rationing. With the attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States government created a system of rationing, limiting the number of certain goods that a person could purchase. Rationing included gasoline, butter, sugar, and canned milk. War also disrupted trade, limiting the availability of some goods as we will expect this time around so get some of those pink umbrellas for your drinks for they come from China. Since the Japanese Imperial Army controlled Indonesia from March 1942 to September 1945, that cut off the supply of rubber. Roosevelt’s Executive Order 8875 created the Office of Price Administration (OPA) on August 28, 1941. They put in price ceiling on most goods in auditioning to rations.

Americans received their first ration cards in May 1942. The first card, War Ration Card Number One, became known as the “Sugar Book,” for one of the commodities Americans could purchase with their ration card. Other ration cards developed as the war progressed. Ration cards included stamps with drawings of airplanes, guns, tanks, aircraft, ears of wheat, and fruit, which were used to purchase rationed items.

They will impose curfews and lockdowns. The WHO is already proposing a worldwide COVID passport and they will most likely use that to claim they are filtering out spies.

Zelensky has just signed into law the first steps of Schwab’s Great Reset. He announced he is introducing a Social Credit Application combining Universal Basic Income (UBI), a Digital Identity & a Vaccine Passport all within their Diia app. He also says that because so much money is coming into Ukraine as he has become an international celebrity, he has legalized cryptocurrencies in Ukraine. He will allow foreign and Ukrainian cryptocurrencies exchanges to operate legally, according to the country’s Ministry of Digital Transformation.

Forbes Fires Journalist Who Revealed Fauci’s Finances


Armstrong Economics Blog/Media Re-Posted Mar 17, 2022 by Martin Armstrong

Adam Andrzejewski reported that Dr. Anthony Fauci became America’s highest-paid public employee amid the pandemic, and that report cost him his job at Forbes. The war on journalism is on. Everything Andrzejewski reported is public record — Fauci earned $1.7 million in 2020, and his wife Christine, who also works at NIH, earned $234,284 in 2020. The Fauci’s household net worth now exceeds $10.4 million.

Forbes was not happy with Andrzejewski’s reporting, and the situation reached a peak in January 2022 when US Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kan) cited the Forbes article while questioning Fauci’s financial disclosures. Fauci pulled a Biden and called the senator a “moron” on a hot mic. OpenTheBooks sued NIH in October 2021 for failing to provide the 1,200-page report of Fauci’s hidden financials. Rather than questioning the money flowing to Fauci, Forbes blamed their own journalist for exposing the skeletons in the closet.

Caroline Howard, the executive editor at Forbes, reached out to Andrzejewski to question why he wrote three articles on Fauci in three weeks. Howard accused Andrzejewski of reporting his personal “opinion” rather than fact, despite him citing his sources and maintaining journalistic integrity. Only six of his 56 published articles from 2021 to 2022 mentioned Fauci, but that was still too much for Forbes.

The National Institute of Health should have no say on public reporting and their eagerness to censor the truth should raise suspicions. The NIH reached out to Forbes demanding that they change the terminology surrounding Fauci’s gala attendances to “received” rather than “collected,” along with other minor changes, but they found nothing wrong with Andrzejewski’s overall report. Forbes fired Andrzejewski two days later.

All news agencies have been compromised. All news is now government-sponsored and/or edited. The truth is not easily available, but it is out there if one cares enough to seek it out.

Tucker Carlson Revisits the Media People Who Manipulated the Hunter Biden Laptop Story


Posted originally on the conservatoire tree house on March 17, 2022 | Sundance

On his evening broadcast Fox news host Tucker Carlson took a historic look at how the media manipulated the Hunter Biden laptop story in order to protect Joe Biden as a candidate.  These same media personalities claim they are credible, and viciously attack anyone who points out their lies.   The example of the BIden laptop should forever dispatch any credibility they claim to hold.  WATCH: 

.

Not included in the Carlson review, but one of the most transparently biased segments on the Biden laptop issue, was the interview between CNN disinformation specialist Christiane Amanpour and Liz Harrington.  Given the recent revelations about the authenticity of the Biden laptop, watch this video of Amanpour trying to protect the regime.

You Know World War Reddit Gets Real When Pelosi Invokes Bono To Support Ukraine


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on March 17, 2022 | Sundance 

I said on March 1st (two weeks ago) when Bono shows up, that’s the moment when you know western propaganda over Ukraine will soon apex.

Bono’s appearance in any State Dept or CIA construct usually precedes the bombing of the proverbial milk factories and subsequent “babies are casualties of war” narrative.   Well, he didn’t officially appear in Ukraine yet, however, Nancy Pelosi did the next best thing, and Tucker Carlson noticed.

.

Pro Tip – Stay away from the milk factories now.

Dan Crenshaw Says If You Don’t Support War Against Russia, if You Question Our Involvement in Ukraine, You Are a Putin Apologist


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on March 17, 2022 | Sundance

The war mongering one-eyed Liz Cheney appeared on Fox News this morning [Full Video] to cast aspersions against any republican who might question our involvement in Ukraine.

First, let me be clear in my position.  Almost everything about the Ukraine conflict, as displayed in mainstream U.S. media, including the specific examples of war and casualties as broadcast by Fox News, is propaganda constructed by a UniParty political apparatus in Washington DC.  Only a very small portion of it is accurate, and the interpretations of that small portion are manufactured pro-NATO talking points.

That said, the manipulative creep from Texas is now saying anyone who questions the Ukraine narrative, as constructed by himself and his pro-war coalition, is a propagandist for the Putin regime.  WATCH:

Keep in mind, this “war” is taking place inside a nation with widespread open internet and cell phone networks. There are tens of millions of Ukrainian people with cell phones and access to every social media platform, and yet you see NOTHING from that communication sphere that would provide evidence to support the claims by corporate media.  Why is that?

Why are we not seeing Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and various social media being used by people inside Ukraine to document all of these attacks, assaults, bombings, shootings and brutalities.  Given the scale of the communication networks available, we should see thousands of streams of these videos and images every single second of the day, 24/7.  Yet we don’t, why?

The Occam’s razor answer is the action described does not exist, therefore it cannot be shared.  This ‘void of information’ is identical to what happened in 2014, when the U.S. State Department and CIA carried out their prior Ukraine operations.  We should be questioning everything.
