The Demofiends have already talked of converting all cash into digital denominations, meaning the government would have complete control over your checking, savings, retirement, and even secret accounts.

The Bitcoin retreat, coupled with a sinking stock market, is saying something, primarily that all is not well in the economy.

We’ll see. And actually, a recession might just be what the doctor orders to cure inflation.
