Hate to say it, but I've been a firm opponent of the literal War on Cash for quite some time, because this was fucking inevitable...
I don't think it's ANY coincidence whatsoever that a) the entire West (with a few exceptions) has made it harder and harder to use/pay with cash (some countries more than others. Australia is really bad), and indeed, to simply buy a paper ticket on public transport.
They want your every move to be trackable and traceable. They want to know where you are at all times. They want your every transaction to be controlled. They want to know everything you do, and everything you buy. Let alone the fact that you literally must possess a credit card, and use it, in order to check into most hotels in Australia (i.e. debit is unacceptable, as is cash, now...).
This is no coincidence whatsoever, and it was planned... Fuck, is it any surprise that Victoria, in Australia, under Dan Andrews, was one of the first places to implement all that?? Just like California, although Australia is worse, on this...
You know what is also not a coincidence? The fact that this is not an opinion you are allowed to have, on mainstream social media, or even in the blogosphere. Even stating that there IS a war on cash, let alone that it might be a bad thing will get you laughed off the platform, or called a fucking looney.
But "muh convenience", "muh ease of use", "muh accessibility" - that's all that matters, they say.
Well guess what, arseholes? This is the world you built. This is what you wanted. And it will fucking come for you, eventually. We sleepwalked into this situation, and now, here it is.
We've learned nothing from the 20th Century, apparently. NOTHING...
