There are stores that doesn't allow cash any more. That is border illegal, as cash is legal instrument for trading. You can't even open bank account without having mobile phone. Why all those restrictions? So to open bank account you already need to borrow money just to satisfy requirements. But it is your money that you are giving to bank. And what if I don't want to have phone. Something is off and I think cash needs protection. We will know once we lose it, so why wait, let's see if it makes difference.
It isn't illegal. They're a private enterprise and can take payments in whatever form they choose. They can demand to be paid in roosters and it would still be legal.
I read through all of your comments in this thread. I'm going to ask you a few questions, more for my own curiosity than anything. Feel free to answer or not, but I've been studying conspiracism for the past few years and I think I may be one of the most open ears around. I would say at a minimum that I have some understanding of your worldview. Not a perfect one, but some.
Are you experiencing economic instability in your life? As in, finding it difficult to pay for things that you need?
Do you feel lost or disconnected from others? Is it hard to form connections with people because your worldview is so different?
Is there some other unmet need in your life? If so, can you articulate it or is it difficult to put into words?
I'm not asking these questions to be patronizing. I'm asking them because they're humanizing and help me get a better understanding of the person on the other side of the screen.
