I posted this in 2013 when the Cyprus thing was going on from this thread. https://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=377977     My Dad told the story of being stationed in Korea and being paid in  military scrip. It was colored military money. Of course the locals had  ways to counterfeit and use it too mainly because their native currency  was worthless.  It got to the point a change had to be made. So the word  came out new blue scrip was going to be used. (I don't remember if it was red to blue or blue to red the idea is the same)  The locals were in a panic at the locked gates begging GI's to exchange  their red scrip for the new blue scrip. They were offering huge  haircuts like offering to give a GI  50 or 75 out of a hundred to change  their money. The old was going to soon be worthless and they needed the  new scrip to buy things. The catch was a GI could only exchange so much  scrip. The locals needed the scrip for currency as the yuan was  so worthless it took huge basketfuls to buy a few simple items. It was  so worthless that when transported on trucks if some blew off nobody  bothered to pick it up.  The same could happen again here. I'm not  an advocate of burying in the back yard. However there is no way they  can physically turn every square foot of earth over 100ft deep to find  every bit of treasure that determined people have stashed over the last  couple hundred years. The way to draw it back into the system is to  limit the amounts that can  be used in transactions to some ridiculously  low number or by going to all  plastic money via cards, or by using new  different printed money with limits on the amounts of old that can be  exchanged for new.  Not only do you need to think about how to  protect yourself you need to  understand how they will do anything to  avoid taking  their losses that they have created. No matter what, they  aim to steal our  money (which is actually our labor)  the question is who will step up and stop this.   The framework/laws are already in place to steal everyone's money. My guess is it will happen over a long weekend  and come Monday morning ......voila a new paradigm is in place with limited ability to exchange or transact with old dollars. Those in the past were well aware of what the Aldrich plan (which became the Federal Reserve Act) was designed to do.  Everyone screams for continued free money, printing QE and whatever else. Leverage is a nasty function and few realize it works in both directions. They only believe it works in positive ways  and that they are getting something for nothing when that is the farthest thing from the truth.  The Federal Reserve is a criminal cabal that is only interested in stealing your labor and financially enslaving everyone since they want to be the buyer and lender of last resort and aim to own EVERYTHING.
