As Central Banks assert control while making way for their dystopian
Central Bank Digital Currencies, governments are moved to criminalize
the use of cash. It’s an incremental squeeze, lowering the levels of
permitted transactions. The war on cash is global, making it obvious
that this is a key part of flipping the world into scientific

The European Union is
in danger of “criminalising” the use of physical cash with its new
anti-money laundering laws, an MEP has warned.
Dr Gunnar Beck, a
representative for the populist Alternative for Germany (AfD) party,
has warned that the EU appears to be pushing for the “criminalisation”
of the use of physical cash with its new anti-money laundering (AML)
laws.
Politicians in Brussels have long been pondering an upper
legal limit on the value of cash transactions within the bloc, with
lawmakers detailing plans to ban Europeans from spending over €10,000 in
physical tender as part of a single transaction.
The European
Parliament however has now voted for such a proposed limit to be dropped
down to as little as €7,000 as part of efforts to clamp down on money
laundering and tax dodging within the bloc, with officials also voting
to see cryptocurrency transactions paying for goods and services that
are valued over €1,000 to be banned.
Many within the parliament
appear to be justifying the decisions as being an important step in
curtailing criminality within Europe, though Dr Beck warns that the
limits on cash payments now appear to have gone too far.
In a
statement to Breitbart Europe, Beck emphasised that while the AfD
welcomed additional efforts to tackle money laundering and terrorist
financing, it rejected the parliament’s call for cash transactions to be
curtailed.
“While we should focus on money laundering by
organized crime and Islamist terrorists, the EU chooses to tighten its
surveillance of German savers and pensioners transactions,” Dr Beck
remarked. “This is a mistake.”
He went on to claim that the AfD
were now the “only party defending cash freedom” in Germany, with the
members of other supposedly right-leaning parties from the country
allegedly voting in favour of the cash restrictions, despite criticising
the implementation of similar measures at home...<<<Read More>>>...
