Wealth Confiscation In Britain – U.S. Next

All oppressive programs designed to strip citizens of their civil rights and money are piloted in Britain before adoption in the United States. Neighborhood spy cameras, internet monitoring, privatization of roadways, per mile driving tax and even the national I.D. were all tested and adopted in Britain before being proposed in America.

It will start out very mild with only dormant accounts being seized by the government. Once the public is used to the idea, Americans guilty of major crimes will forfeit their wealth to offset the cost of trial and incarceration.  Suspected drug related crimes already allow for asset seizure even without conviction. Then we move to minor offenses such as traffic violations. Soon the idea of wealth confiscation and asset forfeiture are ingrained in the American psyche.

Last year the U.S. Treasury Department mercilessly tracked down American citizens with accounts in foreign banks. This allowed the government to complete the wealth confiscation infrastructure which now tracks the assets of all Americans. January 1st, 2012 all gold purchases over $600 must be reported to the IRS. At that point it will be impossible to hide your assets from the government seeking to redistribute your money to global corporations.

U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron announced plans to use “hundreds of millions of pounds” from dormant bank accounts to fund community projects, while Business Secretary Vince Cable said lenders “ripped off” customers.

Cameron said he will press ahead with a proposal set out in the coalition government’s program to establish a “Big Society Bank” to finance moves by charitable groups and not-for-profit companies to take over jobs currently done by the government.

“These unclaimed assets, alongside the private-sector investment that we will leverage, will mean that the Big Society Bank will over time make available hundreds of millions of pounds of new finance to some of the most dynamic social organizations in our country,” Cameron said in a speech in Liverpool, northwest England, today.

Cameron said the idea ties in with his plans for a general overhaul of the public services, as the government tries to narrow a record budget deficit. The new Office for Budget Responsibility forecasts that 490,000 public-sector jobs will be lost by April 2015.

“We’ve got to get rid of the centralized bureaucracy that wastes money and undermines morale,” Cameron said. “In its place, we’ve got to give professionals much more freedom and open up public services to new providers like charities, social enterprises and private companies so we get more innovation, diversity and responsiveness to public need.”

Existing Legislation

A law passed in 2008 under Gordon Brown’s Labour government allows the government to use money from dormant bank and building-society accounts “for social or environmental purposes.” An account is dormant if the holder has made no transactions over a period of 15 years.

The British Bankers’ Association, a lobby group, estimates that about 400 million pounds ($610 million) is unclaimed in bank accounts. The government will set up a fund to be administered by Co-operative Financial Services that will hand over money to Cameron’s Big Society Bank by the end of this year, the Treasury said. The Co-op expects as much as 100 million pounds to be disbursed.

    You should not have any money in the banking system. Cash or hard assets. Banks are criminal organizations working with the government to screw you out of your last dollar.
