According to the central bank, 66.5 per cent of people in rural areas were already using digital payments by 2017, but that compared to 76.9 per cent in the country as a whole.
Among the benefits listed by promoters of the switch to cashless payments are that they speed up transactions, reduce business risks, and cut the opportunities for criminals to cheat others.
Logically, it would eradicate the theft of cash, and counterfeiting.

Huh.
It’s almost as if cashless societies and totalitarian regimes go hand in hand.

Once we go cashless, it will be the end of freedom.
Everything you do will be tracked, reported, and regulated.

Pay attention, folks . . . a commie dictatorship is the first to go cashless. We should NEVER follow suit . . . EVER!!!!!!!!
To: SeekAndFind
Cashless society = no underground economy. Perfect for a totalitarian society like Communist China or an Elizabeth Warren Presidency...

Part of Satan’s plan. They get rid of cash, then they can get rid of your control of your own money. Say something they don’t like and see what happens to your digital account.
To: SeekAndFind; All
Logically, it gives the central government complete control over the economic life of every individual.
This is totalitarianism to a level that is terrifying.

I actually barely remember when I used cash last time unless abroad.
To: SeekAndFind
I use my debit card to buy goods online and I pay my bill peer to peer.
Cash Is increasingly obsolete. I haven’t had cash in my wallet for years.

It’s a bunch of hype. 1/3 of in person payments in China are made with non-cash payment methods. In the US, it’s 2/3.

[Meanwhile, plastic cards purchases comprised 66 percent of all in-person sales, with nearly half of them, or 31 percent, made with debit cards, according to Javelin. ]

Count me out.
I don’t mind doing cashless when it’s convenient, but cash always works and I will fight doing it under compulsion.
