| Anonymous Coward User ID: 78319800  Canada04/04/2020 07:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When I tried to pay by cash at my grocery store the other day, they looked at me in horror as though I had pulled out a shotgun or something. Quoting: Love_Goddess I was told that only one checkout line was accepting cash, and that there would be a long wait for it. I declined to wait and paid by credit card instead. I suspect this time next week no one will be accepting cash at all. Cashless society..here we come!! I had a cashier look at me funny, too. This virus is the perfect way to get people to look down on cash. Ah, you experienced it too? And yes, it really is! We are watching events we have discussed on GLP for years unfold into the real world very rapidly now. Some days I think I must be dreaming!! Just paid a auto body shop cash but they were trying get me to pay by phone. I said sorry im bringing cash. Yes, they're allowing it for now it seems, but balking at it. I think they will be tightening up over the coming days/weeks. OP has confirmed it. |

I want every single politician and judge microchipped and under constant surveillance, they should show up on monitors and maps, 24/7 day in day out, all the time. And their conversations monitored as well. Quoting: Sungaze_At_Dawn They are the ones that need to be kept in line. I LOVE THIS IDEA! |

thinking...
 User ID: 78212432 United States04/04/2020 07:32 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | i read in an old nineteen seventy four or five ALMANAC and one chapter started out how back then the banks and others were determined to create a cashless society. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78518147 their stated goal was they did not want anyone to carry anything tangible in the distant future and were pushing for credit cards over cash at that time. it shocked me and i had to keep rereading it over to make sure i read it correctly. the goal is the people everywhere would be completely cashless and the credit cards were a baby step in accomplishing this. When Your Money Fails, by Mary Stewart Relfe PhD, 1981 She worked for IBM and foretold everything that since has come down. I tried to link a site where you can read it but GLP blocked the link. Go look for it. Fast read and very interesting. In his poem Human Pride, Marx admits that his aim is not to improve the world, reform or revolutionize it, but simply to ruin it and enjoy it being ruined: With disdain I will throw my gauntlet full in the face of the world, And see the collapse of this pygmy giant whose fall will not stifle my ardor. Then will I wander godlike and victorious through the ruins of the world And, giving my words an active force, I will feel equal to the Creator. “Looking for consciousness in the brain is like looking in the radio for the announcer.” – Nasseim Haramein, Director of Research for the Resonance Project |

User ID: 8648552 United States04/04/2020 07:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My bank sent me a new debit card yesterday that has a proximity chip on it that allows touchless transactions. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78680074 Probably not long before they want to put that chip in my hand. Spooky. I now have to worry about thieves reading the card through my back pocket. Cover your butt.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 76389621 United States04/04/2020 07:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Revelation 3:16-17 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76760905 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Credit cards have always fit that description. As long as you have the card in your hand, or can give the number from memory (your head), then you can buy and they can sell. Once they become mandatory then this prophecy will have been fulfilled. Most won't accept this theory for it would mean they have already accepted the mark. |

User ID: 78490196 United States04/04/2020 07:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How awful! I live for physical contact with a women. Even touching a cashier's fingers as I give her my money is better than nothing. The Asian massage places are all closed down, so what's the point of living anymore? I feel that way about men. I agree with everything you said here. Everything. I miss the touch of a man intensely. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 78734592 United States04/04/2020 07:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | WIKI on "legal tender". Contrary to common misconception, there is no federal law stating that a private business, a person, or a government organization must accept currency or coins for payment. Private businesses are free to create their own policies on whether they accept cash, unless there is a specific state law which says otherwise. For example, a bus line may prohibit payment of fares in cents or dollar bills. In addition, movie theaters, convenience stores, and gas stations may refuse to accept large denomination currency as a matter of policy or safety. The principal purpose of that statute is to ensure the nationwide acceptance of U.S. currency, consistent with constitutional language that reserves to Congress the power to create a uniform currency that holds the same value throughout the United States. While the statute provides that U.S. money is legal tender that may be accepted for the payment of debts, it does not require acceptance of cash payments, nor does it provide that restrictions cannot be imposed upon the acceptance of cash. |
