Bit of Govt common sense here

[Landdownunder]

Moves afoot to enshrine in legislation that cash payments for groceries fuel and medicines will remain.
Some want cashless society.
Elderly dont. At times your phones go flat. Power outages. The computer glitch of two months ago.
I have about $120 cash in ashtray of every vehicle here.
Run out of fuel in middle of nowhere and ask a farmer for 20 litres of fuel type situation can pay them on the spot. Never happened yet touch wood.

Presume you guys basically cashless as well. Many dont take cheques anymore.

Have a top week all

Seems like an excellent plan, convert to a cashless society which requires 100% uptime on the electrical grid. At the same time they are destroying the reliability of the electrical grid with unreliable power sources while destroying reliable base load.

What could go wrong

Trump will push digital currency. PP will tag along.

What is the source of that information?

[Landdownunder]

Good gosh how did this become a trump thread again sorry wasn’t intention.

But guess digital currency cashless society mean the same thing?? Honest question.

Can’t remember where I was recently a small diner or coffee shop run by some young people 19/20 “we make no apologies CASH only” first time I’ve ever seen that

use cash and fight to keep cash as much as possible

[blackpowder]

Same here. But in the cashless societies because of poverty, barter becomes the trade.
Sorry, reread. Unfortunately no move to enshrine cash here. Good for you.

[agstar77]

[cropgrower]

It's called deflection. He's been learning from Chuck.

There is a government fine for that.

If $100 GST fine isn't enough, it raises it to $250 to see if you will comply because paper returns are too difficult for the Receiver General to accept.

I think I'll retire to Australia.

[chuckChuck]

PP still thinks Crypto currency will solve inflation!

PP would like fire the bank of canada governor and then set interest rates himself!

How is he going to lower Canadian rates when the US rates and dollar are much higher?

[agstar77]

Can you imagine a time when you have buy U.S. goods in Trump coin or accept Trump coin in payment ? That would be the ultimate Ponzi scheme.
