You mentioned that you hope they try it...........How could anyone stop it in the EU? TPTB hold all the power.
Best solution is to be ahead of the curve and get your hard earned money while you still can.

Now they will outright steal it?
Where's the best place to hide your savings ?
And then what use is it if the cashless society comes along? When we are on the digital credits that would need to be in a bank

Here's an idea, why don't they confiscate the savings and assets off the houses of Rothchild, Rockefeller, Morgan and Carnegie first, then the Vatican, then the Royal family, then all the Billionaires and then the multi-millionaires.
Then we will see how things sit, I reckon my bank account would go up - just like everybody elses.
Now that's my idea of forced redistribution of wealth.
Moet for everyone.........

You really have to ask yourself that in an economy based on debt, why do the bankers have to steal money based on value (sweat labour) instead of just printing new money. Some might say that would cause inflation, but that is not necessarily the case. If all countries agreed to increase their currency base by 100%, the currency value relationship between countries would remain the same, hence no inflation. It would however "free up" the funds required for further projects, loans to developing small business, etc.

NO.
No no no no no no no. (I don't mean that offensively)
The problem is that people have forgotten what money is.
Money is not the root of all evil.
Money is not paper.
Money is not wealth.
MONEY... IS A REPRESENTATION OF WORK.
Money is VALUE that can be EXCHANGED for GOODS or SERVICES.
When you start from zero (nothing tangible) you have ONE WAY to acquire money. WORK.
End of story.
People want to fabricate money out of thin air these days because THEY DONT WANT TO WORK. So they will instead ROB the rest of us in order to do it. This is the kind of spark that will ignite a well-needed revolution in the West.edit on 15-2-2014 by 8675309jenny because: (no reason given)

As the adage goes, "keep your money stuffed in your mattress"! I don't deal with banks, I despise them. I would heed this warning and take my money out of the financial institutions and hide it somewhere.
The problem is, if you have any decent sum of money, then you're screwing yourself doing that simply due to inflation.
