Circumventing the CBDC?

What options will be available?

The motorcycle of the Future!

It is clear that the Central Bank Digital Currency will be imposed on the people, and people will have to obey in order to be granted access to their own “money.” All aspects of life will be regulated, resulting in total slavery:

Obviously, those who don’t care for being turned into cyborgs or zombies, would like to have alternatives. What are those, if any?

Those, who leave the miserable remnants of “civilization,” will have to tackle quite a few problems.

How does survival work in an environment, where production, distribution, energy, and financial services are no longer available in a balanced system that can more or less self-regulate and maintain itself? My projections are for a five-year span, because I am expecting total turmoil to last for about that long.

Barter works only as long as there is anything to trade. Only production or survival skills can last, but only as long as the tools for them remain available. Most people cannot produce anything of value in a pre-industrial environment, and those, who do, will be in constant danger of becoming enslaved by gangs, killed by marauders or by government drones. Even defending crops or farm animals will pose insurmountable challenges, and all those “good country people” will be nice to each other only as long as their food doesn’t run out. The strong will take from the weak, kill them, or make them labor for them.

Food production will be a government monopoly. There is already a government initiative to make it mandatory to register farm production, even if it’s only a large backyard. Food production and barter will be made illegal for “health” and for “economic” reasons (“fighting the black market”), respectively. The “authorities” will confiscate food reserves (against “hoarding,” while the crooks are using taxpayer’s money to stockpile years’ of reserves in their luxury bunkers), and claim exclusive right to access potable water, which will be guarded with lethal force. There are already places in the US, where it is “illegal” to grow your own veggies or to collect rainwater on your own private property! Well, nothing is really yours, anyway, as long as you have to pay property taxes, and the CBDC will be the only acceptable form of payment… Hunting will be outlawed, too, but hungry people will probably hunt down everything that moves in a year or two. I expect a lot of hunting “accidents” as well as enforcer drones used against “poachers” with extreme prejudice.

Depleting natural resources would finish off everyone, but what are the alternatives?

Building a community can work, if the community

1. is well protected on a terrain that is easy to defend from drones and from outsiders;

2. can produce more food than it consumes;

3. can meet its energy needs;

4. has access to clean water;

5. has all the necessary pre-industrial skills (a blacksmith is the most important one, but making clothes, shoes, and building houses are a few more of the essential trades);

That’s only theory. Striving to survive does not a community make, at least not in a sustainable manner. MOST IMPORTANTLY, the community will need a culture, based on an ideology that offers a palatable role and space for each member. Considering the level of cultural atomization in the US, only a few ideologies might make it, but “multiculturalism” will not be an option: in history, whenever two civilizations clashed, one of them eliminated or absorbed the other, which is the rule of Nature.

The usurpation of law and order through hijacked puppet governments is a worldwide phenomenon. When the facade falls, there will be no mercy. Based on the current schedule, the following events can be expected:

Retaining the current civilization would need several measures that are so unlikely to be carried out that the whole question is purely academic:

I maintain that the best chance people still have is to make the enforcers realize that they will not be spared, either; they will be taken on a “vacation” to a place with no exits, will be replaced with robots, or forced to become zombies within the system, because the blood money they are earning now will be worthless: CBCD will rule.
