Obama and his gun grabbing regime are marching forward with their communistic tactics
The Consumer Financial (un)Protection Board is before the House of Representatives stating it wants to know what you buy and keep that information.
The CFPB has a data-mining program that will make your purchases government knowledge. Officials from the CFPB say their performance goal is to monitor at least four out of every five U.S. consumer credit card transactions this year, estimated total around 42 billion transactions.
They also want to monitor up to 95% of all mortgage transactions but lets focus on the buying aspect.
With this invasive of privacy shredding program the federal government will know what you buy, when you buy it and how much of it you buy. Even if you don’t use a credit card to buy firearms, if you use one to buy ammo or parts for your weapon the fed can extrapolate what you have to some degree.
And debit cards would not be safe from this intrusion either. You ever notice that little Mastercard or Visa logo on your debit card? Though it deducts money directly from your bank account the card itself works just like a credit card and as such would fall under this federal snooping.
This invasion of privacy needs to be stopped. No doubt that if States like New York wanted access to this information when they pass some draconian law limiting magazine size or outlawing sport rifles, the Obama Administration would have no issues sharing it. Then, when Cuomo’s jackbooted thugs bust down your door looking for your “contraband” they will have a detailed list to go on thanks to the Consumer Financial Protection Board.
Don’t you feel protected? How’s that HOPE & CHANGE working out for you?
If the gun grabbers can’t attack directly, they will use any hijacked backdoor method they can. It’s the communist way.
