US presidential candidate promises to transfer the entire budget to the cryptocurrency blockchain
US presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr, the nephew of President John F. Kennedy, has promised his voters to transfer all work with the country’s state budget to the blockchain. In his opinion, such an innovation will ensure transparency and accountability of expenditures.
Speaking at a campaign rally in Michigan, Robert Kennedy Jr. announced to the audience that if elected, every American would be able to view any budget item.
«I will put the entire US budget on the blockchain, and we will have 300 million budget watchers. If someone spends $ 16,000 on a toilet seat, everyone will know about it! » Kennedy Jr. emphasized.
The politician believes that taxpayers have the right to know what their money is spent on. According to the US presidential candidate, blockchain and cryptocurrencies should help America remain a leader in innovation and preserve financial freedom for its citizens.
In June last year, Kennedy Jr. promised to support bitcoin and the freedom to conduct cryptocurrency transactions if he wins the election in 2024. «I will make sure that we have policies that support bitcoin, the freedom of movement of funds, and allow people to manage their own wallets, nodes, and passwords. I will only allow the minimum controls necessary to prevent money laundering ,» the politician said in a lengthy interview with the New York Post.
