Probably easy enough for them to use bank transfers.

Talking of drug dealers & cash, as cannabis is still illegal in the USA as a whole but allowed in some states the fully licensed (by the county or city they are in) cannabis stores can only take cash as they cannot use the banking system because the banks will not touch them while it is still federally illegal. They then have to semi legally launder the cash & then bank it via another business, this goes for the growers all the way up to & including the retail stores.

Governments, irrespective of their ideology, like control and a cashless society gives them a lot more, still at least the Banks will do very well out of it.

It's one thing being told 'we don't take cash; cards only', but personally I am dreading the day we can only pay by smart phone!
Being an ageing gent, I hate the bloody things. It is creeping in though!! :old:

Correct, very little difference between extreme left and extreme right.

It’s progress supposedly and can’t be stopped…
The banks don’t want the hassle of counting cash from shops etc so charge more to put them off …

Only a major issue if you're fiddling somehow; like 95% of tradesmen! Haha

Cash is already obscolete for me. I only use it to pay for my hair cut.... because he's fiddling his tax return! Other than that, 100% card or digital.

Keep looking 2 foot in front of you, unfortunately that short sightedness does not see the bigger picture. :bluebird:

We are heading for a time Governments will freeze Bank accounts, as has already happened in Canada, if you don’t toe the party line.

Let me guess, tradesman?

If not, then at least submit your version of "the bigger picture".

Not sure if I'm a tradesman as I do interact with other companies and process their payroll for them (check out my previous posts to confirm).

With that confimation you will understand that I was right in the middle of the furlough rip off. But hey, who cares, the tax payers will pay for it right!

As for the cashless society, I'm pretty sure you are not stupid. Thus you will understand the danger that may lay ahead. Already we have banks closing down people's accounts because they have a different view (i.e. free speach) to the bank.

How will they then survive in your cashless society? I'm not telling you what will happen, just trying to open your eyes so you can think for yourself. :bluebird:

Wokeness (i.e. political correctness) is ideally suited to control our morals as a way of controlling us. Here in Scotland we have the most draconian anti-free speech/Woke laws anywhere on the planet. The notion of 'hate speech' is a fabrication, of course. Someone mouthing off on the internet that he thinks there are only two sexes is not demonstrating hate for anyone. But even if we do hate something or someone we should not be condemned in the same way as someone who does physical harm to another person or animal out of hate. There are a lot of people out there whose eyes need to be opened. A cashless society would be a slave society.

Sorry, still not following? Are you refurring to the average man on the street regards bank account closure, or is this something Andrew Tate-esque.

Again, may be short sighted on my part, but I very much doubt that Natwest are scanning the Valleys for people like me and my opinions in the risk/threat of closing my account.

I just don't want to pay on card for everything,if I go and get a cup of coffee from a cafe or van I don't want to use a card for just £3.30 odd ,or for a burger etc,how will you put money in a birthday card for example, people will grow up not valuing money if it goes all digital,just think every time you tap your card in a shop ,cafe , petrol station etc the bank knows your whole life where you have been ,what you eat ,if you went to the football ,i don't want that

Re: O/T don't kill cash

I think the scary thing is the value of your cash by using card depreciates. So if I went to the local butchers and paid £50 for the good by card, that £50 is now worth less after that transaction and the more times it’s done it becomes virtually worthless. In turn making the banks richer. Whereas with cash the value will always remain the same. I myself am guilty of just tapping my card, but when I go to a local business I now make sure I pay with cash.
A cashless society on the whole is such a scary thought though, the amount of control they could have over your life if they wanted.

Exactly what I have in China, they have everything under control really, now we pay everything via smartphone and I do feel spending 100 quid like it is nothing.

Cashless society > state issued crypto > smart contracts > government control of your spending > erasure of liberty > neo feudalism

All fairly straightforward to follow for anyone who chooses to pay attention.

Most don't though because its more convenient not to, but its not like its particularly hidden.

China was the first model. Canada the test in a western economy. Its not as far off as people think.

Ukraine will be the pilot for the WEFs New World Order. The contracts to rebuild the country have already been awarded to scum like Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Blackrock.

It’s hardly just come out of nowhere has it mister hysteria. The first debt card was used in 1987 over 35 years ago. If you count credit cards even further back in 1966.

You even admitted to using non cash payments yourself so don’t really know what point you’re trying to make either you against it or for you seem to be for it. Everything evokes and moves on my friend and mostly as a result of the past generation who want to improve on what they had.
