Does Mark Green DR. Support Crypto?

@RepMarkGreen

From start to finish, a CBDC is controlled by a central bank like the Federal Reserve. Allowing this much control over our daily lives puts our country on a real road to serfdom. cato.org/visual-feature…

Claiming that a CBDC can be designed to protect privacy is like claiming a surveillance state won’t abuse its power—it's absurd.

A central bank digital currency (CBDC) isn’t just a currency - it’s a method of payment, a method completely controlled and observed by the government. /1

This week, I will be voting in favor of the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act—a bill to ensure the Fed cannot create CBDCs and weaponize them against the American people. Thank you @GOPMajorityWhip for your tireless work on this.

Crypto has shifted economic power from centralized institutions back into the hands of the people. The CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act, the Securities Clarity Act, and FIT21 will provide the regulatory certainty needed to ensure that web3 is designed with our American values.

This week, I joined @RepEricBurlison, @RepLangworthy, and @RepBrianBabin in co-sponsoring the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act. The Fed has no business collecting Americans’ private financial data through CBDCs.

There’s no question about it; CBDCs are about containment, surveillance, and control.

Exactly! FedNow is step one of the CBDC and it is a tool for the Fed to control what we buy! It’s the final stage of tyranny.

The Federal Reserve is building the financial equivalent of the Death Star. Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) corrupts money into a tool for coercion & control. Congress must swiftly ban then criminalize any effort to design, build, develop, test or establish a #CBDC.
