On February 6, 2024, TJ Roberts, a candidate running for Kentucky House of Representatives District 66, published a press release unveiling his plan to turn Kentucky into a hub for economic freedom.
He specifically cited the United States’ growing inflation as the main catalyst for his plan to make Kentucky “the Crypto Capital of the World.” He stated the following:
TRUTH LIVES on at https://sgtreport.tv/
Inflation is at an all-time high, and it’s time for Kentucky to take action to protect our citizens from the harmful effects of the Biden Regime’s economic policies. I am committed to making Kentucky a leader in financial freedom and economic opportunity.
The first step of Roberts’ pro-freedom plan is to abolish taxation on precious metals:
First, we will abolish the sales tax on gold and silver to provide a hedge against inflation and protect the purchasing power of Kentuckians. It’s time to stand up to the Federal Reserve and their reckless policies that devalue our currency.
To preserve financial privacy and freedom, Roberts’ second point consists of prohibiting Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), which he detailed below:
Second, we will ban Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), which are a direct threat to our financial privacy and freedom. Kentucky will lead the way in protecting our citizens by ensuring that our financial system remains free from government overreach.
Roberts wants to have Kentucky follow in Wyoming’s footsteps in becoming a pro-cryptocurrency jurisdiction. The candidate for Kentucky State House District 66 declared:
Third, by adopting the Wyoming Model, Kentucky can become the Crypto Capital of the World. This will create countless job opportunities and spur economic development in our state. The Biden Regime is waging a war on cryptocurrencies because they offer a means for financial freedom. Kentucky will embrace this technology and ensure our citizens have access to the benefits of this rapidly growing industry.
By following the example of Wyoming, Kentucky can become the Crypto Capital of the World. This will create countless job opportunities and spur economic development in our state. The Biden Regime is waging a war on cryptocurrencies because they offer a means for financial freedom. Kentucky will embrace this technology and ensure our citizens have access to the benefits of this rapidly growing industry.
Last but certainly not least, Roberts vows to slash taxes in the case that the Biden Regime debases the US dollar through inflationary monetary policies:
Lastly, if the Biden Regime devalues the dollar, Kentucky will cut taxes to make sure our citizens have more money in their pockets. We will not allow the federal government’s reckless policies to harm the financial well-being of our citizens.
Roberts is not alone. Kentucky State Representatives Steve Doan, Candy Massaroni, Steve Rawlings, and Josh Calloway have publicly expressed support for Roberts’s plan to tackle inflation in Kentucky. TJ Roberts’ addition to the Kentucky State House is key in making Kentucky one of the freest political jurisdictions in the US. Rolling back the easy money regime that has dominated American politics since the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913 is one of the critical economic battles of our epoch.
