Maybe having everything run by a very few systems is not a good idea?

Went to get my kids Burger King and they were not taking credit cards either. Luckily I always have cash but was not too thrilled having to chit chat with the cashier at the drive through.

"If the want accept cards and won't accept cash they must not be selling anything."

The so called peaceful Antifa/BLM people seem to have solved that problem. If the goal is chaos and the collapse of society, this would be a step in that direction.

I had no problems with my hard currency? I have found in virtually all purchases my cash was gladly taken ....imagine a power outage because of weather or any ginned up problem?....I know I’m being overly sarcastic but I do not carry or use a credit/debit card. When needed I reactivate the card I bought years ago and use it...its 3 dollars a pop and I get what I need and then it sits dormant.

Some coffee kiosks around here won’t take cash because of the dreaded COVID on the bills and only accept credit cards. Today must have been really hard on them.

“Third party” — take your pick. Biden or Democrats. Everything they touch turns to crap.

If so, seems like could be some hacking going on you know, ccp, norks etc.

More likely it's the deep state installing spying systems to send copies of all transactions to Langley.

Cashless society. Looks like a few wrinkles need to be worked out.
