I am not sure they will have a lot of luck when trying to enforce that.

"EU parliament says 1+1 can't equal 2".

In a free world, people don't have to subject themselves to authoritarianism if they don't wish to do so. It is pathetic that the EU wants to control everyone and everything.

Fckin Hypocrites.... What do they think FIAT CASH is? .... So if they print it, it is good... but if they are not behind it... it is bad? The reasoning

behind this thinking is totally idiotic. If I want to be more anonymous than Bitcoin, I would rather use CASH... like most of the scammers and

money launderers are doing now.... Good luck putting the cat back into the bag. 

On the other hand... they are trying their best to get rid of cash too.... One of these days... they will have FULL control over your money.

Indeed.


They have no authority, they have only violent enforcers of their arbitrary decrees, no different to the original fascistas who beat non-compliant serfs with bundles of sticks.

"I'll beat the shit out of and steal from you if you disagree" is not authority, it's tyranny.

Exactly!  Those unelected, bank-rolled dopes in Brussels show the world once again that they don't have a clue what they are talking about.

The Brits were wise getting out.
