Doug Casey on “15-Minute Cities” and Penning You In for the Next Lockdown

Doug Casey

The “15-minute city” is an urban planning concept rapidly spreading in North America and Europe. They aim to make everything—where people work, shop, get their education, healthcare, and leisure activities—just 15 minutes away.

The idea is for bureaucrats to restrict—and eventually prohibit—car use because everything is within walking or biking distance. Phasing out hydrocarbons, in general, and cars with internal combustion engines, in particular, is a primary goal of the carbon hysterics.

Critics also argue that 15-minute cities will eventually allow for total surveillance and control of people’s lives, as governments will inevitably pair them with an ESG social credit system and central bank digital currencies.

What is your take on the 15-minute city concept?

  1. His description of the “elites” as “parasites that don’t produce anything or serve a useful purpose”–in other words, they are useless eaters (which is how they describe us “little people”) is PERFECT! You nailed it, Doug Casey!
