A hundred governments around the world have had an open debate about whether CBDCs are the way forward. The fact there is no outcry about those treasury adverts last week shows you just how badly wrong these things have gone. I'm a pragmatist. I haven't got time for ranting conspiracy theories. But these are the directions that the West is going in. Increase wealth terrorism, increase tax, reduction of choice, infringer on free speech and ultimately total control of our lives. That's where we're going.
