The Federal Reserve is highly considering this option, and Powell has mentioned it numerous times in his speeches. This is part of the move toward a cashless society as the government continually hunts down its citizens for taxes. The Founding Fathers fought to prevent direct taxation. Yet, the failing current government is drowning in debt, so they are after every possible penny they can find. A CBDC would effectively provide the government with a glimpse of all your purchases. They could easily de-bank an individual or institution without a middleman or prevent someone from making specific purchases.
Ron DeSantis (R-FL) also put forward legislation to prevent Floridians from a CBDC. The governor accused the Biden Administration of trying to inject “woke ideology into the financial sector” and said that the current administration is promoting “a central control state.” “Our money says In God We Trust. The central bank digital currency changes that to In Government We Trust. That’s wrong and I am grateful for the Governor’s continued pushback of an out-of-control DC bureaucracy,” said Foundation for Government Accountability CEO Tarren Bragdon.
Governments across the globe are searching for the Philosopher’s Stone. By changing the banking system to instantaneous transfer, they can eliminate physical money and track everything we do in real-time. They want us to surrender all liberty and terminate our civil liberties. This is precisely how empires collapse.

If you combine government use of energy policy, government regulation on individuals around that energy policy, and the self-interested need to control political opposition, you discover one of the most effective ways to control human activity is to control their finance.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave us a great example of that when he weaponized the power of the Canadian government to target the protesting truckers and those who support them. You might remember Trudeau’s government locked down bank accounts, froze assets, denied loans, blocked mortgages and generally confiscated the wealth and incomes of his political opposition without any due process; all because the people were challenging his totalitarian COVID dictates. {Go Deep}
Take those reference points as an overlay and now consider this undiscussed recent announcement from the Biden administration:
[White House] – President Biden often summarizes his vision for America in one word: Possibilities. A “digital dollar” may seem far-fetched, but modern technology could make it a real possibility.
A United States central bank digital currency (CBDC) would be a digital form of the U.S. dollar. While the U.S. has not yet decided whether it will pursue a CBDC, the U.S. has been closely examining the implications of, and options for, issuing a CBDC. If the U.S. pursued a CBDC, there could be many possible benefits, such as facilitating efficient and low-cost transactions, fostering greater access to the financial system, boosting economic growth, and supporting the continued centrality of the U.S. within the international financial system. However, a U.S. CBDC could also introduce a variety of risks, as it might affect everything ranging from the stability of the financial system to the protection of sensitive data.
Notably, these benefits and risks might vary significantly based on how the CBDC system is designed and deployed. That is why Executive Order 14067, Ensuring Responsible Development of Digital Assets, placed the highest urgency on research and development efforts into the potential design and deployment options of a U.S. CBDC. The Executive Order directed the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), in consultation with other Federal departments and agencies, to submit to the President a technical evaluation for a potential U.S. CBDC system.
Today, OSTP is publishing its report, Technical Evaluation for a U.S. Central Bank Digital Currency System, which lays out policy objectives for a potential U.S. CBDC system and analyzes key technical design choices for a U.S. CBDC system. The report also estimates the technical feasibility of building a CBDC minimum viable product and describes how a U.S. CBDC system might affect Federal operations. The report makes recommendations on how to prepare the Federal Government for a U.S. CBDC system. Importantly, the report does not make any assessments or recommendations about whether the U.S. should pursue a CBDC, nor does it make any decisions regarding particular design choices for a potential U.S. CBDC system.

When you read that full announcement, you realize they have already built the system.
If the system is built and they are now making policy recommendations for implementation, the question becomes ‘what’s the goal’?
We do not have to look far for the explanation.
the World Government Summit 2022 took place on March 29 and 30 in Dubai, hosting more than 4,000 individuals from 190 countries including senior government officials, heads of international organizations, and global “experts.” The invited participants presented ideas and worldviews from within their various fields of specialty.
One presentation was from Dr. Pippa Malmgren, an American economist who served as special advisor on Economic Policy to President George W. Bush.
Her father, Harald Malmgren, served as a senior aide to US Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford. In this segment, Mrs. Malmgren says the quiet part out loud. Yes, they are no longer hiding the construct; indeed, as you will hear they are saying quite openly what the future will look like. WATCH (2 minutes):
Transcript – Dr. Malmgren: “What underpins a world order is always the financial system. I was very privileged. My father was an adviser to Nixon when they came off the gold standard in 71. And so, I was brought up with a kind of inside view of how very important the financial structure is to absolutely everything else.
And what we’re seeing in the world today, I think, is we are on the brink of a dramatic change where we are about to, and I’ll say this boldly, we’re about to abandon the traditional system of money and accounting and introduce a new one. And the new one. The new accounting is what we call blockchain.
It means digital, it means having a almost perfect record of every single transaction that happens in the economy, which will give us far greater clarity over what’s going on. It also raises huge dangers in terms of the balance of power between states and citizens.
In my opinion, we’re going to need a digital constitution of human rights if we’re going to have digital money. But also this new money will be sovereign in nature. Most people think that digital money is crypto, and private. But what I see our superpowers introducing digital currency, the Chinese were the first the US is on the brink, I think of moving in the same direction the Europeans have committed to that as well.
And the question is, will that new system of digital money and digital accounting accommodate the competing needs of the citizens of all these locations, so that every human being has a chance to have a better life? Because that’s the only measure of whether a world order really serves!”
The entry into a digital currency, needs a digital identity.
The end goal of a digital currency is why western political leaders have not been worried about following the COVID-19 spending demands from the World Economic Forum. {Go Deep}
When the global trade currency does not need to be pegged to anything to determine value, it is completely fiat. This is the current problem with global trade and transactions taking place in U.S. dollars, which arbitrarily lifts the standard of life for Americans while providing no similar benefit to other nations. That view became the underlying motive for Osama Bin Laden to target the World Trade Center, twin towers. That view was/is also the perspective carried by Barack Obama, that lay behind his “fundamental change” statement.
A digital currency allows ultimate control on a global basis by a one world government, or western system of collective governments, that can assign value. No other mechanism will have as much control over the life of a person than a digital currency that will create a system of transactional credits and debits, perhaps also influenced by your social credit score.
The digital currency requires a digital identity in order for apportionment based on your value to society. This is essentially an extension of the Fabian mindset into the world of financial transactions and monetary evaluations. Fabians believed that some form of socioeconomic tribunal would be needed in order for each citizen to be quantified according to their “worth” to society. The Chinese social credit score is a variant of that same concept.
The phrase “you didn’t build that,” when espoused by former President Obama and current Senator Elizabeth Warren is also based on this collective worldview. Both believe that individuals do not succeed independently, but rather gain their ability to grow wealth by using the resources of the larger society, infrastructure, labor and education. The phrase “it takes a village” to raise a child, as espoused by Hillary Clinton is another variant of the same collective advocacy.
A digital currency and digital identity is not a conspiracy theory, these “global leaders” are explaining it to us out loud. However, I am concerned that most will not hear it, or understand it, until it is too late.

I reported on the Private Blog that I had a copy of the legislation and I was told it would be introduced today – Monday 28th. That info was correct. Well, here it is!. Reps. Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.), Jesús Chuy Garcia (D-Ill.), Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), all Democrats, have introduced the “Electronic Currency And Secure Hardware Act” (ECASH Act) that does far more than just creating a digital currency. This Act cleverly strips the Federal Reserve of its authority to create the money. I wrote:
Next week there will be a bill introduced which will be entitled ECASH (Electronic Currency and Secure Hardware Act. This is in response to President Biden’s Executive Order on Ensuring Responsible Development of Digital Assets to develop the digital dollar design, including assessments of financial inclusion, possible benefits and risks for consumers, existing payment systems, and national security.
ECASH is very clever for it is actually transferring the creation of the currency from the Federal Reserve to the US Treasury or in other words the White House. The Treasury will distribute DIRECTLY to the public via a secured hardware device which will be something along the lines of like a vending machine. All of those who have created conspiracy theories about banks that own the Fed will now have to switch their theories for the creation of money will now reside in the White House.
Here is the catch, it will be anonymous so it will not be trackable like Blockchain cryptos. People will cheer that, but there will be that infamous Catch 22. Individuals may be restricted to having a maximum of $2,000. That means all money will need to be deposited so it is a covert way of canceling the currency. But they are not dealing with that issue just yet. The end goal here is to force all money to be above board for the purposes of taxation. So it may actually result in creating more of a barter economy.
There will be no centralized ledger or distributed ledger for it will be non-traceable thereby better than crypto. It is to utilize secured hardware software and it’s issued by the Treasury which eliminates the Federal reserve putting the creation of money in the hands of the White House. They are clever for this will be fully anonymous transactions just like paper money today rather than Blockchains that are designed to track every transaction, which means the government can therefore tie every transaction to the sender and receiver.
This will not change the banking requirements of know-your-customer rules. The ECASH you will get via a bank account, peer-to-peer transaction. Thus, retail will not change from the currency acceptance of cash. The sales pitch is this will still serve people who are unable to hold bank accounts due to minimum balance requirements, or those who do not trust banks because banks may charge fees or freeze funds. However, what they are not telling the press is there will be limits so you can not move $1 billion to ECASH – try $2,000.
Simultaneously, Biden is introducing the “Billionaire Minimum Income Tax,” imposing a 20% minimum tax rate on U.S. households worth more than $100 million, even though they are not billionaires. The sales pitch is typically Marxist where the minimum tax would make sure that the wealthiest Americans no longer pay a tax rate “lower than teachers and firefighters.” To the Democrats, the problem is always the rich not that they spend more than they have and constantly bribe the public to pretend they are Santa Claus. They claim this will reduce the deficit by about $360 billion in the next decade. What they are NOT telling the people is this is Elizabeth Warren’s WEALTH TAX.
So anyone who pays less than 20% will have to “top-up payment” to meet the new minimum. However, the DANGER here is that “this new minimum tax will eliminate the ability for the unrealized income of ultra-high-net-worth households to go untaxed for decades or generations.”
That means if you own a company or even a house, and the CURRENT market value rises to whatever the IRS uses, guess what, you will have to pay 20% tax on the value of your stocks, company, or your home. This is the alternative to his attempt to track every $600 transaction to get those evil billionaires who they seem to define as everyone but themselves.
They used the same clever trick to get the income tax passed back in 1913. Only evil people who earned more than $3,000 a year would have to pay. Of course, $3,000 in 1913 was 150 $20 gold coins and that at $2,000 an ounce today is $300,000. So they pitched it as targeting the millionaires, but it came down to less than the millionaire just as they are doing today with the billionaires.
Just as now EVERYONE must file income tax or go to prison, the WEALTH TAX will also come down as they constantly need more money. So if your house doubled in value, you will have to pay 20% of that value to the IRS even if you did not sell it. And then, if it drops by 50% next year, you will NEVER get a refund.
So the hatred of anyone who has more than the lower homeless person is always on their agenda. They will continually change the definition of the rich until everyone who has a job is now the “privileged” rich.
During the Great Depression, this vile group who looks down upon society from above was defined as those who made $5 million. That collapsed to $250,000. The definition will ALWAYS be redefined to maximize their revenue whenever they need it.
Anyone who votes against it will be targeted as supporting Zuckerberg, Gates, etc. WEALTH TAX will destroy the foundation of America, end the benefits of investing for retirement, and serve as the final nail in the coffin of the United States.
