Central Banks and Domestic Spies

 The central banker says, "Free markets cannot be trusted to direct the flow of goods and services, so a small collection of experts must be empowered to manipulate markets at their discretion." The spy agency says, "Free peoples cannot be trusted to make wise decisions based upon available information, so a small collection of experts must be empowered to manipulate what the public knows." In both instances, freedom is diminished.

Perhaps the biggest "Tell" that we have been living under the mere illusion of free markets is the uncomfortable truth that the central banks of closed communist nations are scarcely distinguishable from those purporting to undergird capitalism.

The worst part of central bank tyranny is that it has destroyed sound money and private savings.

So long as people continue to participate under the delusion that paper currencies have innate value, central banks and governments can print more worthless notes whenever bankers or governments need money.

Central banks have destroyed sound money, middle-class savings, self-sufficiency, and private property.

Just as central banks manipulate the supply of money for profit, spies manipulate the supply of information for profit, too.

Central bank manipulation of money turns free citizens into debt slaves and finances the national security architecture that keeps them permanently chained.
