On Thursday, the United States Federal Reserve (Fed) tweeted a link to a page on its website that explains what a CBDC is, along with some frequently asked questions about CBDC.&nbsp;<div class="raw-html-embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet">What is a central bank digital currency (<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CBDC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#CBDC</a>)?

In the case of the United States, a CBDC would be a digital currency issued and controlled directly by the Federal Reserve.&nbsp;CBDC is kind of like cash, which is backed by the Fed and whose value is manipulated by the Fed’s monetary policies.&nbsp;However, where cash allows you to transact anonymously, CBDC would not. &nbsp;In fact, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/88f47c48-97fe-4df3-854e-0d404a3a5f9a">according</a> to the Financial Times, CBDC would have to be tied to your&nbsp;digital ID.<blockquote>What CBDC research and experimentation appears to be showing is that it will be nigh on impossible to issue such currencies outside of a comprehensive national digital ID management system. Meaning: CBDCs will likely be tied to personal accounts that include personal data, credit history and other forms of relevant information.&nbsp;</blockquote>Digital IDs&nbsp;A digital ID would be a form of digital identification that would also be issued by the government and would be tied to everything you do.&nbsp;Think of it as a vaccine passport, but instead of it just being scanned when you enter restaurants or get an organ transplant, it would also be scanned when you buy&nbsp;gas, ride the bus or order groceries.&nbsp; &nbsp;At least, that’s what the World Economic Forum (WEF) envisions as part of its “Great Reset”.&nbsp;As <a href="https://aflds.org/news/post/it-begins-digital-id-requirements-may-lead-to-declined-cards-say-uk-banks/">reported</a> by Frontline News, the WEF says on its website that “digital ID systems have enabled the authorities to identify populations reliably and remotely.&nbsp;. . . Digital ID, digital payments, and data governance are each important individually. Together, they add up to a powerful public good.”&nbsp;In other words, digital ID + CBDC + controlling that data = The Great Reset.&nbsp;What is The Great Reset?&nbsp;The Great Reset is a plan of the WEF and global leaders to reshape the global economy and culture.&nbsp;In a controversial&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zUjsEaKbkM">ad</a>&nbsp;published by the WEF in 2020, the organization promised that by 2030, “you will own nothing and you’ll be happy,” because everything and everyone&nbsp;will be digitized.&nbsp; &nbsp;The WEF lays out other “predictions”, including:&nbsp;<ul><li>Whatever you want you’ll rent and it’ll be delivered by drone,</li><li>The U.S. won’t be the world’s leading superpower, rather&nbsp;a handful of countries will dominate,</li><li>We won’t transplant organs, we’ll print new ones instead,</li><li>You’ll eat much less meat – an occasional treat, not a staple, for the good of our environment,</li><li>Polluters will have to pay to emit carbon dioxide,</li><li>There will be a global price on carbon.</li></ul>What does this all mean?&nbsp;Well, imagine your money being issued directly by the government and controlled by the government, who can also see and control everything you do with that money.&nbsp;For example, if you’ve already exceeded your allotted meat purchases for the month, perhaps you will no longer be able to buy any more meat products until the next month.&nbsp;Or, you might be limited to buying only a certain number of products made in the U.S.&nbsp;Or, you might have money deducted from your account for every mile you drive in a vehicle that causes too much pollution. (The Biden administration and its mainstream media partners have already said they are <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/26/buttigieg-says-white-house-is-weighing-mileage-levy-to-fund-infrastructure.html">planning</a> to do this.)&nbsp;The government has already made it clear that it wants to track individuals’ finances, like when Biden tried last year to <a href="https://www.azcentral.com/story/money/business/2021/10/09/what-you-need-know-biden-plan-track-600-bank-accounts/6052734001/">monitor</a> every bank account with a balance of over $600.&nbsp;Lawmakers have also begun to float the <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/3571#:~:text=Introduced%20in%20Senate%20(03%2F23%2F2020)&amp;text=This%20bill%20requires%20Federal%20Reserve,domiciled%20in%20the%20United%20States.">prospect</a> of the Federal Reserve issuing digital accounts to receive money such as COVID-19 stimulus checks, which would be deposited into&nbsp;the government-issued account instead of your personal bank account.&nbsp;Again: Digital ID + CBDC + controlling that data = The Great Reset.&nbsp;

A CBDC would be tied to your digital ID
