Now U.S. government threatens to take all your cash

“In the name of fighting terrorism financing, a new U.S. Senate bill threatens to force private corporations to monitor your financial activity and empowers government to seize all your assets if you fail to comply with the new law. Even failure to fill out one form is license for the federal government to take everything you have. …If the bill becomes law, Americans would be subject to a whole host of government intrusions. One little slip-up would open a Pandora’s box of governmental inquiry into your financial life,” says Peter Reagan, a financial-market strategist at Birch Gold Group. “For example, failing to complete a single reporting form would result in the government being granted abilities to freeze and seize not just a portion, but the entirety, of your assets. The bill even goes so far as to include the contents of safety-deposit boxes.”-Source

Looks like Satan is getting a little worried and hurried in his final agenda because he knows that if the people have access to cash they can avoid the mark of his beast that his man of sin in Rome is about to enforce. As one of many students of prophecy, this is why I created a page titled “the expected cashless society” on the site many years ago about the Pope’s plan to make sure all cash is removed from society or at the very least digitized so as to control every dime.   Continue reading

VIDEO: Amazon’s ‘Pandora’s box’ an attack on personal privacy (Enforcing the MARK)

amazon-go-store-in-seattle“For some, it’s a dream come true: The ability to walk into a grocery store, grab anything you want off the shelves, and simply walk out. There’s no need to wait in line at a busy cash register. Your bank account will be automatically debited when you leave the store. It’s magical. …So the day is coming when people will be able to pull up to cashier-less stores in their driverless car, leaving their cashless wallet at home. All they will need is their smartphone and Amazon’s new app, called Amazon Go. The first Amazon Go pilot store is already open to the company’s employees in Seattle and it will open to the public in January. …While super convenient, Wood and others are cautioning to let the buyer beware. What you gain in convenience, you will lose in privacy.” –Source

‘Currency Crash’ Drives British Pound To A 31 Year Low As Deutsche Bank Sinks To The Lowest Level Ever

british-pound-crashes-1024x591The fallout from the Brexit vote continues to rock the European financial system.  On Wednesday, the British pound dropped to a fresh 31-year low as confidence in the currency continues to plummet.  At one point it had fallen as low as $1.2796 before rebounding a bit.  As I write this, it is still sitting at just $1.293.  Meanwhile, the problems for the biggest banks in Europe just continue to mount.  At one point on Wednesday Credit Suisse hit an all-time record low, and German banking giant Deutsche Bank closed the day at an all-time record closing low of 12.93.  Overall, Europe’s Stoxx 600 Bank Index closed at the lowest level in almost five years.  What we are watching is a full-blown financial meltdown in Europe, but because it is not personally affecting them yet, most Americans are not paying any attention to it.

Goodbye, password. Banks opt to scan fingers and faces instead

103735470-banks_security_biometrics_3-530x298The banking password may be about to expire — forever.

Some of the nation’s largest banks, acknowledging that traditional passwords are either too cumbersome or no longer secure, are increasingly using fingerprints, facial scans and other types of biometrics to safeguard accounts.

Millions of customers at Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo routinely use fingerprints to log into their bank accounts through their mobile phones. This feature, which some of the largest banks have introduced in the last few months, is enabling a huge share of American banking customers to verify their identities with biometrics. And millions more are expected to opt in as more phones incorporate fingerprint scans.  Continue reading…

Oklahoma Police Can Seize Your Entire Bank Account on a Traffic Stop Without Any Charges

oklahoma-highway-patrolThe one state that has gone complete anti-democratic is Oklahoma. It is wise not to travel in that state at all. Oklahoma should be on a no-fly zone. Now, Oklahoma police can outright seize everything you have from debit cards to bank accounts on a traffic stop without any criminal charges being filed. If some policeman thinks you’re doing something illegal, your life is over. Without money, you cannot hire a lawyer and they can just rob everything you have on a whim.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol has introduced a device called Electronic Recovery and Access to Data (ERAM) that allows police officers to seize money in your bank account or on prepaid cards. State police began using 16 of these machines last month, and now the police have become literal highway robbers. This makes the traffic cops in Russia, who you can bribe to go away if they pull you over for a speeding ticket, as a far more civilized arrangement. Here, they can rob you of everything.  Continue reading…
