But, then again, we certainly don’t want the “elites” telling us what to do.
The car / speeding bit was an analogy; it isn't the issue introduced for discussion. I agree that providing one that is rather off-topic is not helpful however, I still understood the point being made.

Of course, the elites want more and more control over the plebeians - there is a clear pattern of that. They also want more of our money - that is blindingly clear.

I have little doubt that CBDCs will come about at some point, probably by force. And, I have the same little doubt that people will not like that program once they understand it plus the limitations of it and the lack of anonymity.
