俄亥俄州共和党众议员沃伦·戴维森计划提出一项法案，旨在遏制中央银行数字货币（CBDC）的发展前景。
Rep. Warren Davidson, R-Ohio, plans to introduce legislation that puts the prospect of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) in the crosshairs.
这位自2016年年中起便在众议院任职、目前正寻求连任的议员在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时，将中央银行数字货币形容为“数字时代的共产主义货币”。
The lawmaker, who has served in the U.S. House since mid-2016 and is currently seeking re-election, characterized central bank digital currency as "communist money for the digital age," during an interview with Fox News Digital. "They could just freeze your money. You could program it.
“他们完全可以冻结你的资金。这种机制还可以被编程设定。有些人甚至将其视为一项‘功能’，”戴维森说道。他举了一个例子：一辆皮卡的司机需要以每加仑10美元的价格购买燃油，而驾驶混合动力车的人只需支付每加仑2美元即可。“人们把这种机制当作优点。在我看来，这简直是反乌托邦式的做法，”戴维森补充道，“我绝对要阻止这种事情发生。”
Some people call it a feature," Davidson said. He provided a scenario in which a pickup truck driver pays $10 per gallon for fuel while a hybrid driver could get their fuel for just $2 per gallon. "And people see this as a feature. I think it's dystopian," Davidson said, adding, "I definitely want to stop it." Last month, in a post on X, Davidson wrote, "I'm drafting a bill to regulate Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) as counterfeit money. Planning a CBDC? Conspiracy.
上个月，戴维森在X平台上发帖称：“我正在起草一项法案，将央行数字货币定义为假币。打算发行央行数字货币？纯属阴谋。设计央行数字货币？等同于制造假钞。正式推出央行数字货币？那就是伪造货币。制造假币者及其同谋都应入狱。绝不能允许央行数字货币出现！”
Designing a CBDC? Same as designing counterfeit plates. Launching CBDC?
特朗普采取罕见举措：在多方施压之下，任由跨党派住房法案未经签署即生效。上个月，戴维森在X平台上的另一篇帖子中警告道：“央行数字货币就是数字时代的共产主义货币。这种可编程货币会让政府掌控你的资金——只有经政府许可，你才能动用自己的钱。”“这对西方文明而言是一种生存威胁。”
Counterfeiting. Prison for counterfeiters and their accomplices. No CBDC!" TRUMP TAKES UNUSUAL STEP, LETS BIPARTISAN HOUSING BILL BECOME LAW UNSIGNED AMID SAVE PRESSURE CAMPAIGN In another post on X last month, Davidson warned, "CBDC = communist money for the digital age. Programmable money puts the government between you and your money. You will only have access with their permission.
虽然今年早些时候正式生效的《21世纪住房发展法案》中有一条款暂时禁止发行央行数字货币，但该禁令几年后便会失效——条款明确规定：“本条款的各项规定将于2030年12月31日起失效。”
This is an existential threat to western civilization." While a section within the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that became law earlier this year temporarily prohibits the creation of a CBDC, that ban sunsets in a few years — language in the ban notes that "provisions of this section shall cease to be effective on December 31, 2030."
戴维森周二在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时指出：“维持货币稳定的基础在于一定程度的财政纪律，每年的支出绝不能超过收入。”
Davidson told Fox News Digital during the interview on Tuesday that "the fundamentals for sound money is some level of fiscal discipline," adding that "you can't spend more than you bring in every year."
他补充道：“其实不一定非得是黄金，关键在于实施严格的货币政策，确保货币供应量的增长幅度与经济发展水平相匹配。”
"I don't think it has to be gold," he said, explaining that there needs to be "a disciplined monetary policy" in which "you can't grow the money supply disproportionate to your economy."
“我认为应当废除美联储，”戴维森说道，同时他也承认“设立央行有其必要性”，不过强调：“目前的美联储恐怕只有通过彻底废除才能实现改革。”

戴维森表示，“我们至少应该对美联储进行审计。”当被问及如果共和党在中期选举中同时掌控参众两院，唐纳德·特朗普总统提出的向每位成年美国人发放5000美元的提议时，戴维森表示，只要配套实施相应的开支削减措施来弥补成本，他支持这一政策。
Davidson said that he thinks "we should at least audit the Fed." Asked about President Donald Trump's proposal to dole out $5,000 to every American adult if the GOP wins both chambers of Congress during the midterms, Davidson indicated that he could get behind the policy if it is paired with spending cuts to cover the cost.

戴维森指出，从表面上看这一提议令人担忧——毕竟向每位民众发放5000美元会加剧通货膨胀；但他同时建议，该举措可与废除奥巴马医改政策等措施相结合，并称“彻底改革医疗体系是支付这笔开支最具可行性的途径。”
Davidson said that "on its face" the proposal is concerning "because $5,000 per person going into the economy would fuel inflation," but suggested that such a move could be combined with action such as gutting Obamacare, saying that among "the most promising ways to pay for it is a radical shift in healthcare."
