Banks trying to drive cash out of society, warns Nigel Farage
Former Ukip leader says he would welcome Royal Commission into sector, with more than 1,000 bank accounts a day being shut
The way I understand it:
If you have a debt, the store has to take cash. Says so right on the cash, valid for all debts.
But they can refuse to take cash before you incur a debt.
So if you eat at a restaurant, you can in theory always pay cash at the end, because you have a debt.
But if you try to buy something at a cafe, they can refuse cash because you don't have the debt yet.
Good sentiment, but two ironies:
1. The rich have more "ballots" and can out vote you.
2. The gov can take your "ballots" (taxes) and cast those votes how they like.
I suspect that favored businesses don't care about boycotts because somehow unlimited newly printed money is directed their way.

Both true.

They hypnotized us with the Beefy Crunch Burrito and other drive-thru Mexican delicacies, and now they're guiding us into the new globalist nightmare through cashless restaurants.
During an earnings call earlier this month, parent company Yum! Brands, Inc. addressed plans to eventually move to 100% digital sales at its restaurants.
This includes fast food chains like Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and KFC.
If you're going to switch us off a cash-based society, this is the way to do it.
Just four weeks ago, I reported how a prediction by Australian “conspiracy theorists,” falsely debunked by the press, became reality in just three months.
That story was about certain Australians who predicted that the government would move their country to become a “cashless society.” Those people were soundly debunked and called crazy right-wing conspiracy theorists by the Australian press. Then, three months later, the Australian government decided to move towards a cashless society, indeed.
At the time, I thought that three months from a conspiracy theory being debunked to the same theory coming true was fast.
Boy, was I wrong! Australia just outdid itself.
According to an excerpt from the book, during an interview Musk asked biographer Isaacson, "How am I in this war?" He explained, "Starlink was not meant to be involved in wars. It was so people can watch Netflix and chill and get online for school and do good peaceful things, not drone strikes."
Well. I suspect Starlink also has a little something to do with a replacement digital currency, which can only possibly work as a cash replacement if there is 100% reliable connectivity everywhere all at once. But that’s a subject for a different post.
Starlink is funded by DoD, so that's bullshit right out of the gate.
On the necessity of a worldwide system, I don't see it at all. If they're able to herd even 95% of the population into large cities(definitely the plan), why give a shit about the rest? They won't. At least not until they have achieved their vision for a slave world with the majority.
Their goal is not to simply control everything, but also to eliminate the majority of people.
The time to worry is when all currency is recalled and the new shit doesn't have that phrase - that's how it's all been done before.

I agree that the present currency can be used for all debts but that doesn't mean that a merchant has to let you incur a debt to begin with
I've been to about a dozen restaurants and cafes now which simply refuse to even let you place an order without a credit card. That seems like a serious step toward eliminating cash. I always leave and tell them why.
You're probably too courteous in that you ask before you're served.

They have a window where you can order a beer while you are waiting. So I ordered a beer and they refused to take cash.
OK, I wanted the beer, so I paid with a credit card. Then the total had an extra $1.50 on it. I asked about that and was told that I added a tip. I specifically did not add a tip because I was pissed that they don't take cash.
I got the manager and made him remove the tip.
We are rapidly approaching the CCP utopia of complete tracking of all citizens at all times.
Lesson: call ahead and make sure a restaurant will take cash. If they will not, don't go there.
