I characterize it all as the confiscatory taxation administration. I would add this also applies to the bureaucrats in Mount Peculiar too. In both cases it is clear that those making the decisions abjectly despise the rank and file in the US and in Vermont. There is no longer any desire to serve we the people, who are the employers. I say we all just say no to paying our taxes because their performance reviews do not warrant being in the employ of the citizenry. They are rogue and take their orders from a global elite operating through many think tanks, NGOs, captured government agencies etc. I am working locally now because that is what we all must do, to elicit change and restore the republic to. That which is founded on serving the people and respecting their freedom, their right to free speech, their right to private ownership etc. their right to farm and grow their own food, their right to liberty. Our governments no longer believe in any of this. Our government wants license to do as they please for the masters to whom they have sold themselves out.

Yes, but many of them (in the bloated Dome in Montpelier) believe they are rescuing the poor, while making them poorer. Elites always believe they are entitled to their elitism and that they are there BECAUSE they are enlightened and intellectually superior. This was equally true of Marie Antoinette and slave-owning Aristotle. (John Kenneth Galbraith wrote about this at length in his book "The Culture of Contentment.") Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates BELIEVE they are saving humanity via planned genocide. The guillotine is unremembered by them behind their wall of false wealth and corrupted power.

Well you know, it is relatively simple to fabricate a guillotine; so much of their wealth is fiat. And they continue to invent new forms of fiat such as carbon credits. The problem with elites is utter hubris, they act as if they are God, because they have no understanding of God. If you have ever listened to Yuval Harari, this is clear. I should read that book by JKG one of these days. I will put it on my long lease of reading. My homesteading lifestyle occupies much of my time.

Galbraith, ironically, was a solid liberal. :) His better work studied the Great Depression, soon to be repeated on much grander scale....

All systems--financial, health, education, agriculture, energy, and transportation are no longer functioning. They are all interconnected. A band-aid or two will not make it "better". There is no fixing, they must be overhauled and the powers that shouldn't be are not the ones who will do this. The people will be the ones who create the new models. It is always the people who actually do the work, not the figureheads. We just need the opportunity to use our multiple talents to move forward.

Janet Yellen is a proponent of the smart city infrastructure fund. Will this be the chaos for introduction of cbdc?

That's the plan--how we respond determines the direction that we will take. Are we awake yet? Do we understand our collective power, or do we just roll over and take whatever is presented? We are at the crossroads, it is ultimately our choice.
