Stop buying from Amazon, they are not your friend - I’ve said this here for years and was constantly blasted.

Maybe now some of you will listen.

Also, stop buying the garbage made in CHY-NA - do some research as to where the product is made and find an American company.

See, e.g., Parler for how well that works.

decided to PAY CASH for 100% of their Purchase for the next 4 years??

Many businesses refuse cash and more are doing it every day.

> Isn’t this the opportunity for conservative businessmen to form replacement companies?

Yes. As a software developer, I really, really want to pursue this. Finding like minded engineers is a challenge (most software devs are leftists).

And of course, finding investors for something like this is difficult too. We need to find a way connect those with the tech talent (e.g., people like me) with conservative-minded investors.

That’s why I keep one debit/credit card for such instances, especially travel.

Otherwise, I pay cash as much as possible.

Cash transactions are easy to stop. Feds can direct banks to limit cash withdrawals to mere pocket change if one is identified as a MAGA supporters. Probably will be a feature of a new Patriot Act.
—————
Daily withdrawal limits at ATMs, plus the damned withdrawal fees. Even mine (Chase) was set to only $300 per day. With most bank lobbies closed or restricted hours due to covid-19. Sucks when it takes 4 days to withdraw rent. Forget it if you withdrew your daily limit and needed $1 more. It’s happened to most people, I suspect.,

That’s actually why I use Amazon. I can still find American and Westetn goods. Since Duterte took over the Philippines, instead of a variety of mostly Western and Japanese products as before, the main shopping centers (SM) here now almost exclusively stock and sell cheap Chinese crap. Even Ace Hardware.

Cash is king!

Buy the same products available on other sites besides Amazon

How does this not violate legal tender mandate printed right there on the paper instrument?

How does this not violate legal tender mandate printed right there on the paper instrument?

That doesn't mean it has to be accepted. Common misconception.

There is no federal statute mandating that a private business, a person, or an organization must accept currency or coins as payment for goods or services. Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether to accept cash unless there is a state law that says otherwise.

Section 31 U.S.C. 5103, entitled "Legal tender," states: "United States coins and currency [including Federal Reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal Reserve Banks and national banks] are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues." This statute means that all U.S. money as identified above is a valid and legal offer of payment for debts when tendered to a creditor.

I have NEVER been to any business that won't take my cash and I have never seen one. Maybe it's time to re-evaluate your purchasing habits and the people you buy from.

Slander is stock and trade for the dems. I point you towards Dingy Harry Reid and his lies from behind the Senate podium, lying about Mittens not paying his taxes. Later, when confronted about it, his response was, "we won, didn't we?"

Don’t use Stripe. Don’t use Shopify.

Stripe Inc. another company nears the tank.
