Tighter restrictions in market place and market place politics stymie freedoms.

[RunningDeer]

Good summary by Billy Johnson, AmidsTheNoise, in under 4 minutes.

My take is that with tighter restrictions over time by limiting access to material goods and through market place politics, it's a subtle designed to condition, change behaviors, and relinquish freedoms.

I didn’t post for the 2nd amendment. It’s an example of when your gut says “something doesn’t feel right”. IMO, there are more steps added to what was once a simple transaction or form to fill out.

The other day, I heard myself say, “I wished I brought my lockbox of personal papers to verify who I am.”

For some reason, the last several days, I’m not able to copy the summaries below the videos.

Here's an example of the larger picture that Billy Johnson explained. Thank you, Kelly Anne.

The article fits into what is happening with Americans trying and getting pushed around as is one of the points brought up in this thread and a few others:

Nipped in the Bud

Bob Diefenderfer has been operating a high-end retail garden supply store since 1998. His wife, Kristen, is vice president. They built a single shop in St. Clair Shores into the largest high-end retail garden supply chain in the state of Michigan, with seven locations throughout the lower peninsula. They have 30 employees, and provide them with Blue Cross health insurance. They pay their taxes, they say proudly, and have cultivated impeccable credit.

And then, last year, their bank, Huntington, closed their business accounts. Huntington gave no reason, except to say that the Diefenderfers could close their accounts at any time. Huntington could make that decision, too.

In a matter of two business days, their business was turned upside down. Automatic payments were rejected. Suppliers, utility companies, and more had their automatic payments go unpaid, and then came the bounced check fees. They had to switch payroll — and their employees had direct deposit. DTE, Consumer’s Energy, their alarm systems, insurance, the water bills — everything had to be changed for seven different locations.
It was financial hell. But the Diefenderfers picked up their money, moved it to PNC, and again set up their automatic payments to suppliers, utilities, and payroll.

Then, in April of this year, they received letters from PNC, notifying them that each of their business and personal accounts (including a savings account in their name they were keeping for their son) would be closed.

They took their money, and went to First State Bank — and First State refused to open an account for them.

You see, Bob’s shop is the Cultivation Station. Cultivation Station sells organic fertilizers, non-GMO seeds, and outdoor gardening supplies. They also sell indoor hydroponics and aquaponics systems.

And that could be why banks don’t want to do business with them.
