>>Which type of activity illegal?
Government theft of savings accounts.
This is coming to an IRA near you. In order to protect themselves, people will start draining their savings as of today, placing that money in physical assets.
What, like gold? Does anyone remember how FDR stole the nation’s good supply, and for decades it was illegal for citizens to possess gold in non-jewelry or -industrial form? There’s also always eminent domain. They’ll get your wealth, if they want it.
