Living in a cashless country.

[FLEKTARN]

Isn't our society already CASHLESS? ATMs have closed down, Banks have closed down, the only way you can buy anything these days is online with the credit card, or "swipe" it at the checkout. I haven't seen any Aussie dollars for at least a year!

They didn’t close. They just moved to offshore country Cyprus

Debit cards are convenient, but I usually keep cash for small purchases like food. If I know I'm going to buy something that I'd rather keep private, I use cash. (Guns, ammo, liquor, etc...). Things like that are legal, but I try to keep my profile as clean and inoffensive as possible. I go through all kinds of background checks several times per year for my job. I also stay off of social media. This is as social as I get.

You can always get very social in a Russian bar. Just sayin

I saw on the news last night that a totally cashless store was about to open. I don't like this as I like to have some cash.

Even the idiot taxi driver I had to use the other day refused cash.

The grubberment want a cashless system and will do whatever they can to implement it.

They did a deal many years ago, giving details of all customers so that the grubberment could watch and see where you hide your money.

But there is still that annoying cash, used to pay for things that the grubberment can't tax.
And It galls them no end
Tradies that take cash payments
The old bloke mowing your lawn
The guy with cash secreted all over his home so he don't lose the pension.

These are the things that keep the kleptocrats up at night.

I pay cash wherever I can
I even pay the full amount and tell the tradie to pocket it rather than pay tax.

Hell, if I could work for cash, I'd take a pay cut, just to piss off the grubberment.

If they get their cashless system
Every single cent you own will be there for them to take.

They even tried to introduce a tax on barter.
They wanted the tax amount estimated for any work or trade and a tax paid.
Of course that failed miserably.

Kleptocrats, they name is the Australian grubberment.
