LOL. Small businesses have been getting destroyed by the corporate goof troop big boy monopolies for the last 40 years. Biden has nothing to do with this. Hell Chump himself put Linda Freaking Mcmahon in his cabinet as Head of "Small Business Administration whatever the hell". Linda Mcmahon really? The same goofball family that ran all the small wrestling businesses out of business by stealing all their top wrestlers? righhtttt

Without the support from govt. - nearly 50% of all businesses would go out of business right now. If you don't think that is leverage against the citizenry to play by their rules - don't know what to say. They don't want the lockdowns to end because it will bring to light the destruction of the world economy. Take out a piece of paper and write down all of your assets and figure out what is digital and what is not. Unless you hold the stock certificate or cash in your hand - you don't own stocks or cash in the bank - it's all digital promises. It is structured that way for a reason.

Link me to a page that isn’t from a conspiracy nutter website, because there’s zero real evidence Klaus Schwab made these statements.

That video in the first post is on the World Economic Forum website.

Some stores will soon no longer take cash or checks. We're moving in cashless direction.

NOTE: The video is ON the World Economic Forum's website.

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/...world-in-2030/

Right on the World Economic Forum's own website. Scroll down to the bottom where the video is.

Play the 1 min 33 sec World Economic Forum video titled: "8 Predictions for the World in 2030."

First Statement: "You'll own nothing. And you'll be happy."

Yelling "conspiracy nutter" is an immediate red flag that you have done ZERO research.

I actually did research the subject, and was specifically trying to find proof that Klaus Schwab directly made the statements, as the OP claimed. Which is to say, there’s nothing on the WEF website that backs up said claim. The site that the OP linked to is lying. These statements were written by Ceri Parker.

As per the website: The views expressed in this article are those of the author alone and not the World Economic Forum.

I will admit that the video was posted to the website, however.

The video is directly from the World Economic Forum.

The statement? Is in the VIDEO, not the ARTICLE.

Do some research. Actually LOOK at links when you get what you asked for.

My point remains, it is a blatant lie to say that Klaus Schwab has anything to do with these statements or video.

As per the website: The views expressed in this article are those of the author alone and not the World Economic Forum.


The video is simply re-stating Ceri’s personal opinions.

In order for this country to become a cashless society, the constitution would have to be amended.
The constitution presently states that coins and bills are legal tender for paying all debts, be they private or otherwise.
Stores that do not accept cash are going against the constitution, and that is illegal, unless the constitution is amended.

More worthless "elite" conspiracy theories. Here are the facts- the so-called "elites" are not going to gain control, they are going to lose their ability to rule, most of them are going to be financially eviscerated in the coming economic crisis because most of their wealth are tied up in paper assets, which are going to see their values colapse. Central governments are not going to become all-powerful- they will only become increasingly inept, impotent, and ineffective.
