It’s actually pretty insane how bad the war on cash has gotten, where I am…
To the point where banking in person requires a nearly one-hour round trip, and where “my” bank has ripped out their only ATMs in my large town…
In other parts of the country, people are having to travel 5 hours to access those services. 5 fucking hours!!
Payphones are almost completely gone, and most “modern” businesses don’t even take cash, now…
I believe the insane government here also reduced the maximum threshold for cash payments from $10,000 to $5000 (!!), a few years back, so it is just… Insane.
One big centralized “digital” money-hoarding system where you basically can’t even access your own funds, if the bank and/or government deems you “persona non grata”…
That is absolutely where this is headed.
And most people my age/around me couldn’t be happier. Because it’s “convenient” and “safe”, and “I trust these institutions that they know best, and will do the right thing”.
It’s insane. It’s just… Insane. To the point of I cannot see myself living in this country in the future - that level of insane… 😑
Sounds like you should consider transferring your savings to an off-shore bank account. It might come with some inconveniences, but I'm sure that foreigh banks could still provide you with a working credit card, and you'd get a few more layers of separation between your government and your money.
Her bank account being banned in 3, 2, 1...
Is it sad that our fortunes were more protected when we used mattresses and guns to protect them than rely on institutions?
Mass centralized government entities led to this. The politboro won when they were able to make the 4th branch and act without impunity.

Some stores around here do not accept cash after 6. in the name of safety of course. except this is probably one of the safest areas in town.

Ooft. She about to go MIA
She's only talking like this to get Kanye's attention, basically this is the beginning of an elaborate plan to take half of Kanye's money.
I've loved her music for a while now. Glad to see she seems one of the only sensible rappers left.
She's an open border fetishist and promoted the 2015 illegal immigrant tsunami.
