I just realized that paying in cash is an underappreciated weakspot of the powers that be. First, they can't track you as easily. Second, their big data AI will be blinded. Third, a lot of their wealth comes from transaction fees on all digital purchases. They even lobbied to increase welfare so more EBT would be used because they get a commission on it. Fourth, cash liquidity is a weak spot in overall solvency. It's not just banks being able to deliver funds (in theory, all digital payment means they're all IOU-ing each other in realtime), it's about having physical cash which is an even less liquid asset. Fifth, it means they'll never integrate central bank digital currency. Look at Japan, they wanted to trial it there first but old boomers think non-cash payment is fake or untrustworthy. If people can't shake their cash habit, what will they do?
I propose we stop being lazy fucks, stop going into debt. Go to your bank, take out cash, and pay for shit with it. Carry a coinpurse. Sit on a fat stack in your back pocket. Make it a habit.
If you pay big items in cash it means you're not giving the banks their cut, so they are going to drop your credit score and make it harder for you to get a house or car.
So that's an endorsement then. Nice. You can also start keeping cash in stashes around the home.

You don't need a credit card for that shit. Write a check. Consumer purchases in cash. I've never spent more than $500 for consumer purchases except when I bought a couch and a tv. And I could have used $100s and just got them from the teller.
Do you realize how fucked and surprised they'd be if people just massively stopped swiping all the time to pay?
Ayden Hernandez
I mean, if you pay in cash it’s going to be worse, but my credit score has gone from 850 to 700 in a year from paying off all my debt, but I still put everything on a card and pay it in full every month for the free money.

Isnt it already what prostitutes and drug dealers do?

Take the barter pill

There is a strip of metal in 20$ bills that is tracked ever time you go through a metal detector
Jayden Gonzalez
You just need a couple loans on a car and house or whatever. Buy a motorcycle. Just don't put it on a card.

Thats not what happened
Ryder Cruz
That's the sixth advantage. Do you really want them tracking happy endings once cash is banned? >I was just going to buy groceries and yard supplies with this $400 in my wallet, officer.

Pay in physical silver
Xavier Jones
No, it doesn't do that. Nice try.

they literally take money on top of every non-cash transaction that is made.
>First, they can't track you as easily. true >their big data AI will be blinded. Some of them, not all. The merchants still input the data. >a lot of their wealth comes from transaction fees on all digital purchases >their Card issuers. You get a rewards card that earns points. The highest categories are often loss leaders, and the flat 2% cashback cards are low-margin since you keep the majority of the fee. Merchants already slgightly raise their prices to account for these fees so by using cash you're paying the same price but you get nothing back, and you save the merchant some transaction fees.
Your ideal situation is to get some rewards cards and exclusively spend in the highest reward categories. This ensures you get your points/cash back at a higher rate than the card issuer actually receives, and the merchant still has to pay it (you).

I buy everything online. I don't care if the government knows I bought an anal vibrator.
Christian Cooper
Hey, I'm for silver too. Just pay in cash and never swipe to pay for over the counter shit.
Hunter Roberts
I need to start paying in cash way more often, then the Visa Globohomo machine doesn’t get a cut anymore. Hell I might even buy Amazon gift cards and pay in cash for Amazon purchases also
Good point OP, but Anyone who goes to gun shows has been doing this for 25 years…
Jason Rogers
the absolute state of aussies
Eli Thompson
they charge about $6 for a gift card these days. it's fucked.
Christian Walker
Yeah but then do they use their fucking debit card at the gas station? We need to make this a movement. I mean, it's just OUR money right? We're all doing legal activities. Just cut out their transaction fees and digital tracking, which they never had a right to anyway.
Jordan Perry
They literally inflate cash on purpose so that you’ll be forced to spend your money before you lose the value of it. The top and most powerful economists in the world think it’s stupid for you to save money. This is not a joke, they really believe this.
Leo Collins
NICE! Spread the movement.
I bet we can get niggers on TikTok to spread this with cash fetish.
Jason Morales
I’m sure you know all about it. I went from a mortgage, car loan, and student loan, to nothing in about six months. And my credit dropped 143 pts.
Adrian Wood
I'm proposing zero changes to your spending habits. Just use cash instead of swiping your card.
Robert Perry
Fedcoin is getting rolled out.
Hunter Moore
That would do it.
Liam Wilson
Im just saying, user. There are prostitutes and drug dealers using the roads and sidewalks and plumbing and whatnot and aint contributing because of muh cash, its just math. there will be an imbalance and so just cull the prostitutes and drug dealers and people that just want to pay with cash
