I hate the thought of the government controlling everything... and yet at work, those that pay for their room in cash... we usually have problems. They are homeless and won't leave, or they sneak in dogs who poo on the carpet, or they smoke in the room... the caliber of people who pay with cash are... suspect...
The rich Mexicans most often pay in cash, because their credit cards don't work very well in the USA, and the exchange rate gets them... we rarely have issues with them.
When Covid started, we stopped taking cash.
The banks here had irregular hours when the covid lockdowns started in 2020, and many just closed- they still do not have Saturday hours back, and probably won't per the bank manager I spoke with last week. For me, when guests use a credit card, it is much easier, I don't have to balance the cash in my accounting ledger, write up deposit slips and take it to the bank... where they take my ID and enter it into the computer for the government's prying eye... cataloging that I made deposits. I do resent that every time I make a deposit for the company, I have to show my personal ID. When there is a new teller, they ask for a credit card as well. I am depositing effing cash, and they take all my information... so yeah, where does it end. The government can't tax us enough to pay for all their excess... they want to take away our freedom of cash. And yet if I am honest... It is easier when credit is used.
The following from Dave Ramsey seems spot on:
Are you a bit concerned with the shift away from cash or does it seem like no big deal?
Here are Dave Ramsey’s comments. It’s a two minute read and he does a nice job of explaining.
HERE'S WHAT NO CASH ACTUALLY MEANS:
A cashless society means no cash. Zero. It doesn’t mean mostly cashless and you can still use a ‘wee bit of cash here & there’. Cashless means fully digital, fully traceable, fully controlled. I think those who support a cashless society aren’t fully aware of what they are asking for. A cashless society means:
* If you are struggling with your mortgage on a particular month, you can’t do an odd job to get you through.
* Your child can’t go & help the local farmer to earn a bit of summer cash.
* No more cash slipped into the hands of a child as a good luck charm or from their grandparent when going on holidays.
* No more money in birthday cards.
* No more piggy banks for your child to collect pocket money & to learn about the value of earning.
* No more cash for a rainy day fund or for that something special you have been putting $20 a week away for.
* No more little jobs on the side because your wages barely cover the bills or put food on the table.
* No more charity collections.
* No more selling bits & pieces from your home that you no longer want/need for a bit of cash in return.
* No more cash gifts from relatives or loved ones.
What a cashless society does guarantee:
* Banks have full control of every single penny you own.
* Every transaction you make is recorded.
* All your movements & actions are traceable.
* Access to your money can be blocked at the click of a button when/if banks need ‘clarification’ from you which will take about 3 weeks, a thousand questions answered & five thousand passwords.
* You will have no choice but to declare & be taxed on every dollar in your possession.
* The government WILL decide what you can & cannot purchase.
* If your transactions are deemed in any way questionable, by those who create the questions, your money will be frozen, ‘for your own good’.
Forget about cash being dirty. Stop being so easily led. Cash has been around for a very, very, very long time & it gives you control over how you trade with the world. It gives you independence. I heard a story where a man supposedly contracted Covid because of a $20 bill he had handled. There is the same chance of Covid being on a card as being on cash. If you cannot see how utterly ridiculous this assumption is then there is little hope.
If you are a customer, pay with cash.
If you are a shop owner, remove those ridiculous signs that ask people to pay by card.
Cash is a legal tender, it is our right to pay with cash.
Banks are making it increasingly difficult to lodge cash & that has nothing to do with a virus, nor has this ‘dirty money’ trend.
Please open your eyes. Please stop believing everything you are being told. Almost every single topic in today’s world is tainted with corruption & hidden agendas.
Please stop telling me & others like me that we are what’s wrong with the world when you hail the most corrupt members of society as your heroes.
Politics & greed is what is wrong with the world; not those who are trying to alert you to the reality in which you are blindly floating along whilst being immobilized by irrational fear. Fear created to keep you doing & believing in exactly what you are complacently doing.
Pay with cash & please say no to a cashless society while you still have the choice.
