This is the reality of a state with a centrally-controlled digital currency – total surveillance as is happening in China.

AN article published by Global Research this month accuses the global banking system of using “digital chains in order to build a “no-escape economy”. 

Writer Mark Keenan says that for generations, money has been a tangible symbol of work, value, and exchange. “Today, money is becoming something else entirely: a digital leash. The transformation is happening quietly, without consent, and most people will not recognize what has been built until the gate locks behind them. 

Keenan says a new financial order has central banks, not markets, determining who can participate in the economy. “It is a system that promises security and stability, while constructing the most sophisticated control mechanism in human history. This is the no-escape economy, and its architecture rests on three pillars: debt, digital money, and total surveillance.”

Cairns News is not aware of any provision in the Constitution or Banking Act 1959 that allow for such weaponisation of currency, that is, the abuse of currency (in whatever form) by parliaments for suppression and control of economic activity and control of the populace.

If anyone, particularly those already sitting in parliament, is aware of any provision in the dark corners of the Banking Act that could be abused for this purpose, then they should seek immediate amendments for the purpose of ensuring currency is used only for it’s most basic, traditional purpose.

We also note that Section 51 of the Constitution, which gives the Commonwealth Parliament the right to legislate with respect to “currency, coinage, and legal tender”, is headed by the statement: “The Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws for the peace, order, and good government of the Commonwealth …”

How, we ask, is a Chinese-style surveillance state based on social credit scoring an example of “peace, order and good government”? “Oh, but the Chinese are a well-behaved society,” you say? Well then, let’s simply end this idea of “democratic” “representative” “government of the people”!

Keenan notes that “debt used to be a tool” but “today it is a cage” because nations borrow from private central banks. Taxation is simply a tool to service that debt that continues to expand exponentially.

“Corporations do not save capital to expand — they leverage borrowing. Families do not save for homes or cars — they finance everything on credit. Debt is no longer an exception in the economy; it is the foundation,” writes Keenan. 

“Once a society becomes dependent on debt, freedom becomes conditional. Governments rely on central banks to survive. Corporations rely on lenders. Individuals rely on credit. And whoever controls the debt controls the debtor. A debtor society cannot say no. It can only comply.” 

He says the next stage of control is already underway: the elimination of cash. 

Cash, says Keenan, is inconvenient for central planners. It is private. It does not require permission. It cannot be monitored, frozen, or reversed. So cash is being removed — not by banning it, but by making it irrelevant. ATM networks shrink. Bank branches close. Stores become “cashless for convenience.” Increasingly, money exists only as digital data inside the banking system. 

“But digital money is not money. It is permission to participate. Electronic payments pass through private gatekeepers: banks, payment processors, and soon, central banks themselves. If those gatekeepers disapprove of what you buy, what you donate to, or what you believe, access can be denied instantly.

“This is not hypothetical. Visa and Mastercard blocked donations to WikiLeaks without any court ruling. PayPal has repeatedly closed accounts of journalists, writers, and activists and held their funds for months. GoFundMe froze millions of dollars for the Canadian truckers and announced plans to redistribute the money until public pressure forced a reversal. 

“When money becomes digital, you do not own it. You rent access to it.” 

Now comes the final piece, says Keenan: Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), which are sold as modernization — safer, faster, more inclusive. But the design reveals something else entirely: 

It is money that can be programmed, traced, frozen, selectively turned on or off. 

A CBDC can be set to expire after a deadline. It can be restricted to certain locations. It can be blocked from purchasing certain goods. It can lock itself during an “emergency.” It can shrink in value if a citizen disobeys. 

In a CBDC system, money is no longer a store of value. It becomes a tool of behavioural control. Is this, we ask, what our Constitution defines as “good government”?

Keenan notes that the Bank for International Settlements — the central bank of central banks — openly states its intention to embed “programmable money” and “programmable payments” into CBDCs. Nearly every Western central bank is running pilot programs. Once introduced, CBDCs will not just replace cash; they will replace freedom. 

Debt, he says, made the public dependent on central banks. CBDCs will make the public dependent on obedience. 

Government overspends — central bank prints — inflation rises — digital currency is introduced as the “solution.” The crisis becomes the excuse for the control system that was planned in advance.

“As I explored in my book The Debt Machine: How Private Banks Engineered Global Control, inflation is not an accident of policy — it is a mechanism of control. Each crisis transfers more power from governments to the banking institutions that create money from nothing. 

“The IMF, the UN, and the World Economic Forum all say the same thing: the future economy will be cashless, centralized, and programmable. When money requires permission, freedom becomes an illusion.” 

CBDCs, of course, will be sold as protection against fraud, terrorism, and money laundering. But the real purpose is surveillance. 

“In a CBDC regime, every purchase is recorded, every donor is identified, every transfer can be blocked, and every account can be frozen. Not by law, by software. You do not need police to enforce compliance in a digital economy. The banking system becomes the police. 

“In the old world, silencing someone required effort: laws, courts, arrests, media justification.  In the new world, silencing someone takes a keystroke. Accounts closed. Payments blocked. Access denied. No trial. No explanation. No headline. 

“Ask the Canadian truckers. Ask the journalists de-banked in the UK. Ask the activists whose PayPal accounts disappeared. This is not the future. It is the present.” 

Why Cash, Gold, Bitcoin, and Local Trade Terrify Central Planners 

Keenan says three forms of money threaten this system: Cash — anonymous and untraceable; Gold — value outside the banking system; open blockchains like Bitcoin — permissionless, censorship-resistant, and outside centralized control. While not literally “untouchable,” it appears no single government or corporation can alter the Bitcoin ledger on its own. 

In India, over 85% of high-value banknotes were removed from circulation overnight in 2016, after the government abruptly invalidated most currency in a surprise “demonetisation” policy.

In Nigeria, the central bank imposed strict cash-withdrawal limits — as low as 20,000 naira per week — as part of a push to force adoption of its digital currency. The EU is moving to ban cash transactions over a few thousand euros. Governments constantly attempt to regulate, tax, or outlaw self-custody of Bitcoin, not because of crime, but because it is outside their control. 

If money is freedom, then controlled money is controlled freedom. 

The no-escape economy will not arrive suddenly. It will arrive gradually, quietly, and logically. It will be sold as convenience, efficiency, sustainability, safety, and progress, and most people will accept it, not because they want tyranny, but because they never understood what they were trading away. 

How to Resist 

“The defense is not political. It is practical. Use cash. Hold gold and silver outside banks. Use permissionless digital currency where possible. Build local trade networks. Support parallel economies (cash, local exchange, time-banks, community markets),” says Keenan. 

“Store value outside the system. Freedom will not be saved by elections. It will be saved by stepping outside the system. When enough people stop asking permission, the system loses power.” 

Keenan says there is a deeper dimension to this struggle — not just monetary, but legal and spiritual. Long before digital IDs and CBDCs, the system claimed ownership of identity itself. That subject is larger than this article can hold, but I explore it in depth in Demonic Economics and future essays. 

The final question, says Keenan, is if the government can turn off your money, are you free? “If banks decide who can speak, is there free speech? If transactions require political approval, is it still a market?

“Once CBDCs replace cash, there is no going back. The gate will close, not with a law, but with a software update. This is the future being built now. We either recognize it — or we will wake up inside it.”

  1. @Caltrop

    Banks don’t lend money, they deal with securities from a gratuitous bailment (deposition) of One’s presumed abandoned/salvaged (salvation) biology.

    Buzzfeed – New Word Order… make Hosea 4:6 no longer apply to you.

  2. If you have done nothing wrong you have nothing to fear. Now roll up your sleeve. By the way, has your 6 month old baby had its mandated 35 injections. The state now requires your property for undisclosed purposes. FOI requests may take up to 6 months and the fee is $500. Please be out by midnight or police will attend.

  3. Constitution or Banking Act weaponizing money? Or has ‘money’, which should be more appropriately called currency and its doppelganger ‘debt’, been weaponized against Aussies, specifically the next generation?
    Here is an example of how 50 years of heavy-lifting by the UnaParty which has encouraged the loosening of lending practices and pushed through ‘investor-friendly’ tax regulations, all in order to achieve what is best described as inter-generational theft:
    Assume a home is today worth $1M and that the current rate of house inflation ranges between 10-20% (it has topped 30% recently in certain areas) – that means the average home owner is sitting on a passive wealth uplift of between $100k and $300k per year.
    Who is going to pay for that uplift through their working life? Certainly not the home owner, they are home and hosed. No. that cost is passed onto the next generation of home-buyers who will be paying more for less. It has probably always been so. However, can this system survive indefinitely if house inflation massively exceeds the 2-3% CPI figure the Reserve Bank pretends to operate under?
    The CPI fails to include the actual land value of new dwellings, and completely fails to include “Purchases of established homes [as they] are not included because they are transfers between households, not new expenditure.”
    This is why the model will collapse eventually – because of this built-in distortion designed to hide real inflation. Meh. Next generation’s problem.
    What does the earning of a passive wealth uplift of $100k-$300k per $1M home look like in terms voting habits? It looks like there will be next to no pushback against the UnaParty.
    Greed as a carrot worked, the sleepers are being led to the paddock gate which is about to locked with digital ID forever and a day. It’s a controlled demolition, you’re welcome.

  4. Another one for the library. 😀

    Thank you @obvious_bob for putting up the Mel Clarke — Clive Edwards video.

    The stories of people without degrees in law, like Edwards, Romley Stewart and others succeeding in their search for fairness on run-ins with minions and their masters is enlightening and uplifting.

    https://capillarywave.com

    Old mate in the early nineties, bought about ten acres of what was considered thick Tea Tree swamp bordered by a two lane highway, bush, farmland and a tidal creek which cut through a sandy beach into the sea.

    He put on his gum boots and found more than two thirds of the property was dry; so paid ten grand for it and built a caravan and cabin park — his way.

    He had a pre-existing contract with the local council digging graves.

    The council who owned a caravan park with some cabins in a nearby seaside town opposed his application, harassed him big time; he kept them at bay with a Misconduct Restraining Order.

    The local nickname for the council was, probably still is “The Church”: An article about the park in the local rag, owned at the time by a self-righteous family, had old mate down as grave digger then his names.

    He was ahead of the green-concrete game, building some cabins including a two storey treehouse built around a massive gumtree, with lightweight panels between the pole frames, made by mixing non toxic factory waste with concrete.

    Would Gary if he was in Edwards’s shoes, have notified the council CEO in writing the CEO would be held commercially liable for any loss or damage to Gary’s property, for not allowing Gary to eliminate or control potential future theft without council’s paid permission, demanding money with menace or have a restraining order placed on them?

    I wonder if the gate and fence was said to be a security gate and safety barrier, would the cost of personal liability insurance be reduced, on the off chance a thief stubbing his toe on a brick whilst engaging in his trade, sues?

    How grows the Nillumbik tree?

  5. Cash Control, Lockdown, CBDC, Digital ID, Biometrics? Whitney Webb’s Extraordinary Geopolitical Analysis.
    By Peter Koenig and Whitney Webb
    Global Research, November 03, 2025.
    Excerpt >
    Whitney Webb, the extraordinary geopolitical analyst, just reports in a 22-minute video what supposedly is expecting us around the world, but presumably starting with the west, namely a monetary conversion into all-digital control called Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) which will be linked to electronic or digital IDs which, in turn, are linked to each individual’s biometrics (finger prints, face recognition, iris-scans and more).
    This would mean absolute control of everything you do, intend to do – or not to do.
    It would mean, you are obedient, or your bank account is blocked, for good or for a while, if you are not obedient and submissive to “authorities’” orders.
    Remember, first trials of this evil-control’s workability were carried out during the 2022 Canadian trucker strike, when bank accounts of leaders were blocked, some for good.
    This was not just a warning, but a prediction of what was to come.
    By remaining largely silent around the world, populations accepted this insane government interference in people’s privacy. It was – and still is – against human rights, against basic freedoms as inscribed in almost all western countries’ Constitutions, including in Canada’s.
    That would have been one opportunity for a world revolution against government interferences in peoples’ constitutional and international rights; an opportunity missed. Now there is a second one….
    As we may be confronted not only with universally unwanted, but compulsory digital IDs, but also with control over our – in many cases – hard-earned money. Imposed obedience to accept illegal government actions against us, the People. Your bank account can be blocked if you “misbehave”; meaning you do not follow orders, for example, enforced infractions on your body, like unwanted “vaccinations”, or if the central-control system discovers your environmental / CO2 footprint is too heavy -never mind the vast, immense boot-prints of all military and wars.

  6. The economy actually rests on four pillars – debt, digital money, total surveillance, and electricity. Without electricity the system is stuffed. Apart from Bonehead Bowen’s efforts to make the electricity supply as unreliable as ever, the pulling of a plug here and there, accidentally of course, might also achieve the same effect.

  7. Are banks legally bound to take my promissory note?

    What is the treasuries position on using promissory notes?

    Lord denning stated

    “We have repeatedly said in this court that a bill of exchange or a Promissory Note is to be treated as cash. It is to be honoured unless there is some good reason to the contrary” (see per Lord Denning M.R. in Fielding & Platt Ltd v Selim Najjar [1969] 1 W.L.R. 357 at 361; [1969] 2 All E.R. 150 at 152, CA)

    Another of Lord denning’s rulings stated that a bill of exchange once tendered has to be treated as cash.

    The principle is that a bill, cheque or note is given and taken in payment as so much cash, and not as merely given a right of action for the creditor to litigate a counterclaim (see Jackson v Murphy [1887] 4 T.L.R. 92).

    First of all it is important to remember that the Bills of Exchange Act 1882 (and many Statutes subsequently) consider a Promissory Note to be the same thing as “cash”.

    Why is this not enforced in Australia? Instead of placing the promissory note in the Bank ledger against your loan the Banks simply on sell it.

    Bank fraud relies on your ignorance – they have no right to hold the Deed of Grant.

    If you ‘borrowed’ money from a Bank and do not pay it back, then there should be no problem as you had unwittingly self-financed your own so called Bank loan. The Bank lends you your own money then charges you compound interest – that is fraud.

    Which side of the ledger is your promissory note deposited?

    http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/cth/consol_act/antsasta1999402/s195.1.html

    “money ” includes:

    (a) currency (whether of Australia or of any other country); and
    (b) promissory notes and bills of exchange; and
    (c) any negotiable instrument used or circulated, or intended for use or circulation, as currency (whether of Australia or of any other country); and
    (d) postal notes and money orders; and
    (e) whatever is supplied as payment by way of:
    (i) credit card or debit card; or
    (ii) crediting or debiting an account; or
    (iii) creation or transfer of a debt.

  9. I posted weeks ago, UIB, that petitioning and protesting are the most puerile forms of political activity known to man. Those are things the “Inerts” do to make it look like they are actually doing something politically, rather than just admitting that they are brain dead knuckleheads. Th Inerts thing comes from an interview Mike Adams did with the great Michael Yon where Yon talks about Thailand, Japan, England, and other countries being white-anted by immigration, with the people in those countries, if they are not oblivious to the fact, being “inert”, by doing nothing about it. At least here we have the brain dead Inerts writing letters to papers like The Age with their brain dead commentaries.
    In any event, once again I present Clive Edwards, who is actually ON TO “IT”:

    Who the f-ck would be a cheer-leader for these psychopaths? Who would willingly submit to their claimed “authority” and “superiority’?

    They’re the scum of the earth. The embodiment of the devil on earth.

  11. The Jew Cult.

    “Conceived in dishonour, he was born in inglorious captivity, schooled in the dark practices of savage cults (such as those of Saturn, of the gloomy Israel, of the disreputable Tsabaoth, and of Asthoreth), and reared amid scenes of perfidy, turbulence and anarchy.”

    “Flattered by lying tales of a “wonderful past” and deluded by borrowed prophecies and plagiarized promises of a “still more glorious future,” he is consumed with lust for “World domination,” and, under the lion’s skin, wears hatred as a garment and nurses a sinister purpose.”

    “The impersonation has continued so long and has proved so advantageous that its perpetuation, at any cost, has become the dominant idea which obsesses his vain, selfish mind.”

    “Devoid of scruples and realising his inability to fight his way openly to leadership, he has determined, with all the stubbornness of which his obstinate nature is capable, to reach his end by cunning, by duplicity, by any means however ignoble—even if these entail the destruction of all who are nobler than he and the degradation of the rest to a position lower than even his own—so that at last Һе may “reign” unassailed, in “ Universal Peace,” over such dregs of the once human race as may still remain to soil the desecrated ruins of a besmirched and polluted world.”

    “In every country subversive, disruptive and disintegrating forces of every kind are to be encouraged and organised by professional propagandists and trained organisers, who, after the manner of all revolutionaries, will “ invent fictitious rights, thus creating imaginary wrongs; exploit real grievances, and create want, thus producing discontent and an atmosphere of revolt; and then blame the existing social and industrial systems and point to the Red Road of Revolution as the only way of escape.”

    “When the “ aristocracy ” and “ bourgeoisie” of all Gentile peoples have been “removed,” and all non-Jewish institutions have been discredited and trampled under foot by a systematically bestialized and scientifically depraved “Proletariat,” the International Directors hope that their Jewish mummers, under cover of great secrecy and protected by armies of agents-provocateur and a vast network of secret police will be able to continue their soul-destroying Masque in the character of а “Wealth-controlling, World-dominating, Ruling Race.”

    THIS IS HOW THEY GOT TO WHERE THEY ARE.
    Who would accept to be subject to these psychopaths? Who would bestow legitimacy and respect to these con-artists, sorcerers, child-abusers, and murderers? THESE PRETENDERS. Practitioners of abominations.

    That’s why they need the EXTREME CONTROL measures.

  12. The currency act doesn’t allow this. The notes are promissory of only debt. This is illegal and unlawful. It needs a constitutional challenge.

  13. This is a predominantly decent article covering a lot of ground. Good post Ed.

    A few small niggles though.

    ‘Corporations do not save capital to expand — they leverage borrowing.

    That’s Incorrect. I pointed this out only a week or two ago, with regards to the two U.S. companies that do not surrender capital. BRK and MSTR.

    “But digital money is not money. It is permission to participate’

    This is probably a moot point. But anything can be used as money, as long it is agreed as such. The stone currency of the Pacific Yap people has always been used as a good example, and especially, the way in which the ancient Yap economy was destroyed through devaluation by one Western sailor and a boat.

    “When money becomes digital, you do not own it. You rent access to it.” 

    Finally, someone gets it, well done!, – probably too late now for the imbecilic retail. They’re descendants will now be the future rentier class of those who weren’t stupid enough to sell out to the big boys as they now move into the asset.

    How to Resist 

    “The defense is not political. It is practical. Use cash. Hold gold and silver outside banks. Use permissionless digital currency where possible. ‘

    It’s actually boring hearing these people from California, Florida, etc, telling everyone how they’re gonna fight the government, yet don’t have the balls to go live in Detroit. They all talk about cold-storing Bitcoin to avoid the Government, yet don’t have the balls to renounce their passport! Without ditching their U.S. passport, the Government will tax them wherever they live in the World. So what’s the point?

    But what should really be on peoples radar is the October-November market sell-off, which is now looking like an institutionally orchestrated sell-off. Some are hinting at JPM?

    According to a well known Blackrock affiliate and market insider, currently on a business trip in Switzerland, hence, last week’s two market reports were from Zurich. The financier was discussing the current market sell-off, which despite being a piddly 30%, naturally, ended up with the majority filling their nappies and running to the hills.

    His assessment of the irrational majority – the ‘retailers,’ when compared to the rational ‘institution pros,’ was not only brutally honest, but moreover, an accurate assessment of the fundamental difference between the two groups, and especially, the former’s complete intolerance to economic stress and volatility.

    The financier then pointed out the irony of these people, who dream of changing the system, but are incapable of suffering economic volatility without capitulating their positions at the first sign of trouble!

    [quote]. – ‘And its this echo-chamber of people that believe that they are going to be the ones that end the system, change the system, quote-unquote, – ”take the power back.” And then they shit and piss themselves like toddlers in nappies, and little sissies, at a 25% to 30% dip, – when its kind of looking like a some kind of orchestrated sell-off from an institution.’

    ‘And so my thought process was the people of Switzerland, the people that have the wealth, the people that manage the wealth, real wealth is managed here in Switzerland. These people don’t shit and piss themselves from a 20% to 30% dip. Some wealth may change. Some wealth will find its ways into new hands, but those new hands will be people that understand how to manage wealth long term. Because those people are never going to change. It is never going to be any different.’

    The financier continues.

    ‘There’s only going to a handful of people that have all the wealth and everybody else is going to be happy-hippie, thinking that one day they’re going to take power from the system, and everything’s going to collapse and they will be the powerful ones. And the reality is, if one day you woke up, the system collapsed, and you had all the power, – you would shit and piss yourself at the volatility that it took for you to have that power’

    ‘That’s why there’s only one Switzerland. That’s why there’s only one Dubai. That’s why there’s only a handful of places around the world that have this level of wealth.’ [unquote].

    And that pretty much sums up the reality.

    After last month’s non-acceptance by the U.S. and London Central Banks, the BIS based Basel Committee are currently rewriting their proposed new banking rules for balance sheet allocations. This should be ready for implementation early 2026.

    This also coincides with a major European Central Bank development in the same month: so things are rapidly moving forward in Europe.

    At the same time, and probably due to the reworked BIS rules, a number of major U.S. banks will start buying BTC in the Q1-Q2 of 2026. They will then start buying, selling, holding in custody, and issuing credit against the asset.

    If the current market sell-off is institutionally orchestrated, as claimed?, then it doesn’t take much to work out whose going to be hoovering up the exchange floor on the cheap, which just so happens to coincide with the associated reworking of the associated BIS banking regs. Coincidence?

    The big boys are shaking out the weak hands and kicking out the tourists.

  14. As a follow-on: people anywhere in Australia where bank branches have been closed, forcing people to travel to do their banking (I have been told that people in Colac have had to travels to Geelong, 50 miles away, to bank) have every right to Lawfully the CEO of their Bank that the Bank must accept partial liability for any accident occurring on the roads they have been forced to travel on to do their banking, given the Bank’s commercial decision to close the local branch.

  15. As is, rightfully, said of the Constitution: “What is not granted is denied.”
    The “peace, order and good government…” mentioned in the article is a good call, but the individual Member of Parliaments mandated duty to “…act in the best interests of their constituents…” is also a good call.
    Failure to do either is a breach of contract, which is an applicable charge, and which can be actioned against any Member, state or federal.

    Exodus 22:25-27 “If you lend money to any of my people with you who is poor, you shall not be like a moneylender to him, and you shall not exact interest from him.

Take no interest from him or profit, but fear your God, that your brother may live beside you. You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
