What to Expect from the Government in 2023? More of the Same

“There is no greater tyranny than that which is perpetrated under the shield of the law and in the name of justice.”
—Montesquieu, Enlightenment philosopher

For those wondering what to expect from the government in 2023, it looks like we’re going to be in for more of the same in terms of the government’s brand of madness, mayhem, corruption and brutality.

Digital prisons. Unceasingly, the government and its corporate partners are pushing for a national digital ID system. Local police agencies have already been given access to facial recognition software and databases containing 20 billion images, the precursor to a digital ID. Eventually, a digital ID will be required to gain access to all aspects of life: government, work, travel, healthcare, financial services, shopping, etc. Before long, biometrics (iris scans, face print, voice, DNA, etc.), will become the de facto digital ID.

Precrime. Under the pretext of helping overwhelmed government agencies work more efficiently, AI predictive and surveillance technologies are being used to classify, segregate and flag the populace with little concern for privacy rights or due process. All of this sorting, sifting and calculating is being done swiftly, secretly and incessantly with the help of AI technology and a surveillance state that monitors your every move. AI predictive tools are being deployed in almost every area of life.

Mandatory quarantines. Building on precedents established during the COVID-19 pandemic, government agents may be empowered to indefinitely detain anyone they suspect of posing a medical risk to others without providing an explanation, subject them to medical tests without their consent, and carry out such detentions and quarantines without any kind of due process or judicial review…

That omnibus bill abomination took care of a lot of it even IF McCarthy actually was planned on doing anything.

The country is bankrupt and the criminals are in the midst of raiding what remains of the country’s credit by borrowing from other countries.

What do I expect from the government in 2023?
The only thing different in 2023 is the minor league Uniparty is in temporary ‘control’.
So, same sh*t different year with a little more Sturm und Drang.

Doing the same thing over & over and expecting a different outcome is one definition of insanity.
