The only entities benefiting from such a move    are the local government and the banks. Cash is a form of    financial freedom, something most of us will never see again.    Ron Paul feels a cashless society is equal to an authoritarian    power grab. An interesting take on things, that much is    evident.  <\/p>\n<p>    People with more than two peas for a brain know the economy is    failing. Especially the dollar-based monetary system, as it is    under serious threat. Ron Paul feels the same way and doesnt    agree with Janet Yellens assurances. Especially the promise of    how we will not see     another financial crisis in our lifetime is absolutely    ridiculous. Ron Paul feels the next crisis could happen in    August of this year, for all we know. A very bold statement    that wont sit too well with the economic powers.  <\/p>\n<p>    Interestingly enough, Ron Paul is trying to drive a point home.    More specifically, he feels central bankers are always wrong.    While there is some merit to such statements, it is not a    popular train of thought. Then again, the ongoing     war on cash seems to hint at the trouble which will befall    us all. More specifically, if banks weed out cash, consumers    and enterprises will be even more reliant on them. That is    something everyone should try to avoid.  <\/p>\n<p>    Then again, there are also reasons to turn cash into something    else. Right now, cash isnt a safe store of value by any means.    Ron Paul feels buying gold, stockpiling provisions, and    potentially even buying Bitcoin is the right way forward. The    longer the next financial crisis stays away, the bigger the hit    will be. Now is the time to prepare for the worst, as it will    happen eventually. Those unprepared for such a situation will    find themselves in a world of trouble.  <\/p>\n<p>    It is remarkable to see Ron Paul is so outspoken about the    looming crisis. In his opinion, authoritarians want to cling to    power. This means weeding out cash is the number one priority    right now. A cashless society will not work the way    authoritarians envision it, though. People will lose confidence    and revert to other means of payment in the end. Cash is not    the enemy here, that much is evident. The real enemies are the    banks and the government, as it always has been. Ron Paul is    quite convinced things will turn sour soon. Only time will tell    if hes right.  <\/p>\n<p>    Header image courtesy of     Shutterstock  <\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>See the rest here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/2017\/07\/15\/ron-pauls-feels-war-cash-authoritarian-power-grab\/\" title=\"Ron Pauls Feels the war on Cash is an Authoritarian Power Grab - newsBTC\">Ron Pauls Feels the war on Cash is an Authoritarian Power Grab - newsBTC<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> The real enemies are the banks and the government, as it always has been.
