In today's episode I talk about the "public", monetary side of the Great Reset: Going Direct - a plan formulated by BlackRock in August 2019 in order to "Deal with the Next Downturn", which coincidentally happened to arrive a few months later in the form of a world-shutting virus. Going Direct consists of "Central Banks finding ways to get Central Bank money directly into the hands of public and private spenders", which is precisely what has happened over the course of the past 18 months. The implications for this are huge, as this could mean a complete centralization of money creation by Central Banks. As many nations around the world are preparing to release their own digital currency, it's important to understand how this fits in with plans to Reset the world and Build it Back Better, because of course - all of this is connected.
