Not only Governments put in place policies that impact your customer base, they provide you with loans. Do you think the same Government which takes actions to destroy your customer base intends to help you with this loan? It is not. The goal is to enslave you financially. No matter if the loan is interest free, you owe money to the system. If you owe money to the system, the People in charge are going to use this as leverage against you. This will be used as a bargaining chip. If you cannot accept their request, you will have to repay the money and it is very likely that you cannot do that. As a consequence, you are likely to accept new requirements (example: deploy surveillance system, share your customers' data).

How to regain leverage from a financial independence perspective?

• Do not take loans from the Government especially if this Government is run by People working for the World Economic Forum

• Talk to your community about your troubles and identify solutions with them. Schedule a session outside of your office where you will explain your issue and seek ideas from People. The session needs to be dynamic. You want it as a constructive conversation between you and them

• Think about alternative ways to get funding if you need funding. Can you use local crowdfunding?

• Resources. What resources do you think you need and why? Can you pool resources with other local companies? Imagine John works 4 hours a day for Milk & Co but has nothing to do in the afternoon. Can he come for a few hours to help in the afternoon?
