Hidden within H.R. Bill #2847, is a little-known provision known as FATCA.
The first part of this law went into effect last year. The rest of it will roll out, piece by piece, through the end of 2018.
Few Americans have any clue about what this isbut FATCA actually stands for the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act.
Like many problematic pieces of legislation, this one sounds innocent enough.
But it has major repercussionswhich could expedite a worldwide flight from the U.S. dollar and ultimately result in billions in potential losses for U.S. citizens.

For one, this law means any institution that deals with U.S. dollars has to now comply with the IRS
which means many institutions could essentially stop dealing with U.S. dollars.
For another, this law makes it increasingly difficult, if not impossible, for the average American to get some of his money out of U.S. dollars, and into more stable currencies via foreign banks.
Already, weve seen two of the largest banks in the world, JP Morgan Chase and HSBC, set all sorts of new rules and regulations surrounding international wire transfers and how you can get your cash out of the bank. Many small banks have reportedly followed suit.
Weve heard several reports already of banks now refusing to accept American citizens deposits. And this trend is likely to accelerate rapidly in the months to come.
But most importantly, this law may signify that a true currency crisis is much closer than most people think in America.
This new law is a clear example of what are known as Capital Controls. And this is exactly what broke and desperate governments do when they know the value of their currency is about to collapse.
Weve seen governments around the globe pull these stunts over and over again
right before a currency devaluation or collapse.
And now its happening right here, in the United States of America.

The same financial problems Ive been tracking from bank to bank and from company to company for the last six years have now found their way into the U.S. Treasury. What it means is critically important to every American.
