It is coming very soon. The chips are already available. I have read where one company has adopted them as security passes, for pay receipts and more. It is placed in the fleshy area between the thumb and the index finger. It could and can be considered the "mark of the beast" written about in the book of Revelation in the Bible. This chip can be very dangerous because it can hold all kinds of information about you that can be accessed with a transponder. In Canada they use bank issued cards to use anywhere in Canada instead of cash. These cards are not credit cards but similar to a debit card.

Hmm! How do you like to barter?

There never will be a totally "cashless" society: it's just not possible. Would you be happy to pay a transaction fee for buying a 2 bucks ice cream? Didn't think so. Cashless works out in big transactions - but not small ones.

Seeing as how EVERYTHING is getting hacked now.....I'd rather stick to cash. I like keeping my money hidden the walls because I don't trust the banks.

Remember the Rothschild's own the currency in all but three countries in the world, including the USA. Their agenda is to have a one world currency. From what I have read this is in the very near future of occurring. They will simply cancel all the currencies and issue electronic currency. You will lose whatever you have in banks. What is in your pocket will be worthless.

No That's when I go off grid. Local autonomy and cooperation is an essential foundation of sovereignty

I'm only comfortable going strapless, when my tan-lines are nearly completely blended in.

not really since ive already gone thru that and didnt like it

No, because you are then completely controlled and the government will know everything that goes in and out of your account. Cash gives us freedom to make money without the government snooping. This is why people should get use to cash again. The chip is the ultimate goal, I've read this on a number of business sites, they hoped that 9/11 would bring it in, we already have the chip in our hand when holding a card, it's only a short step further before it's inside us. RFID chips give off RF radiation, and ALL RF radiation is classified as a 2B carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and the World Health Organisation (WHO), the most recent study carried out in 2018 showed that it was a definite link to cancer, it was the largest of it's kind over a two year period, and yet they have hidden the findings. It was Alfred Russell Wallace who suggested a society where cash is valid in of itself without gold or silver as it's backing. Cash is an IOU, a promissory note, this is what people use to give the man who looked after their Gold for them, what that man found out is that people rarely came back for their Gold, and instead would swap the IOU's. This is how cash was created. Now the Banks control the monetary supply depending on how much they print, and this money is created out of nothing, if we all turned up at the bank tomorrow to collect our money or what should of been gold, they wouldn't be able to provide it. The system is rigged we are controlled by numbers, that's what controls the economy and that is what controls the labour. Whoever you vote in will either spend money and put future generations into more debt, or will tighten the purse strings, however no matter what the debt is always greater and so there is no way to work it off. Whenever you place $100 in your bank, the bank uses $90 dollars to loan and make interest on. The founding fathers of the USA were completely against this, but the US went bankrupt and had no choice to become beholden to the federal reserve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9IH-XKQpOI

I would say no since the fact is not eveyone uses a credit or debit card. Though it is easier to get a debit card than a credit card.

of course. The trend is to use technology to pay. Probably you have used your cell phone to pay, or the many systems in internet to handle transactions etc.

I pay mostly by credit card.

nope i love the feel of money and like to see it,,i pay cash,,hate cashless,,poor kids if they never get pocket money

I'd be concerned about it. It means our entire economy would be numbers on computers. Manipulate those numbers and you can manipulate our money. The one advantage of cash is that it is hard to argue with. Its either there or it isn't. You can't make it disappear with a few keystrokes.

No I prefer to pay with cash.

No problem for me.

Absolutely, I would. But...too many people in the U.S. would not. The U.S. is not going cashless any time soon. Too much commerce (both legal and illegal) depend upon it, including (personally) among our Congressmen in Washington D.C. itself, and including U.S. foreign relations.

In God we trust. All others pay in cash.

I like to have option of paying in cash. I am not against cashless but I would like options. I hope that we can use our fingerprint and facial recognition to buy things one day. I do not like to bring card and use mobile phone.

Not really. There are lots of cash use occasions still in our society, I think. Church collections, pan handlers asking for a couple bucks, kids selling candy bars for some school event or another, paying the kid who mows the weeds down for you, etc.

No what happens when the network is down? I waited a couple of hours at a servo in the middle of no where a couple of weeks ago because I had no cash. Due to network error.

I usually pay using Apple Pay on my phone.

I can't remember the last time I paid cash for anything.
