As We Move Towards a Cashless Society

[Weatherman2020]

Russians can’t use Apple Pay, Google pay, or credit cards any longer. Just remember that they can make you totally broke in a nanosecond if they don’t like you and there’s not a thing you can do about it.



Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. Revelation 13:16-17

Seizing assets is nothing new.
Having said that, there has never been a case in the entire world where wholesale asset freezing has taken place like this.
Mastercard and Visa freezing out Russia? That means debit cards don't work anymore either. And banks don't actually have cash sitting around for everyone to withdraw. You would be surprised just how little actual cash branch banks have on hand in comparison to the population they serve.
You can support such a thing perhaps, applying pressure to Putin by his own population suffering deeply for his decision.
But... whose next?

 

[Damaged Eagle]

How fast do you suppose people will go back to gold and silver to avoid this especially after what Trudeau did to the trucker protest in Canada?

After all the banks don't want to pay crap so you might as well stick it in your mattress.

Give $5 to a group those in power don’t like?
Freeze all of your money.
Now you can live on what’s in your wallet. And in a cashless society that’s some meaningless plastic cards.

This freezing of assets is now a common practice.

Good reference point with the Canadian truckers.
In my opinion, there is a desperate need to have legislation written that it is unlawful for any organization that holds funds for any purpose to freeze those funds without a court order. So GoFundMe for instance, cannot freeze accounts without getting a court to approve it.

Legislation is meaningless if the average person no longer trusts the government.

After all moms who make a fuss at school board meetings are domestic terrorists nowadays.

Looks like Russians are going to Chinese based cards.

You should have seen how they treated us, pot smokers, since the 1980s, now cry me a river.

MC and VISA are not credit cards (or the issuing bank), they are the Card networks. Russia still had their home grown system MIR that will allow Russians do use their credit cards.

The Democrats want to censor its critics.
They would love to use the Chinese CCP social credit system.
They could cut people off from the internet, cellphones, credit cards, driver's license.....
The Democrat Cult is an Orwellian nightmare come true.

Pretty soon the rugged individual will have no choice but hunt, fish, trap and set up networks of local trade where people in the area produce their own goods and all purchases are based on a town or village or county bartering system which exists wholly outside government influence and/or regulation. Guerilla markets. Local manufacturing. Good times.

Government would come after them for conducting business without a business license.

Criminality and the black market will buttress cash for quite a few years, it will also work to turn anyone who isn't willing to be tracked and controlled by the government into a criminal.

Their military proved to be sub-standard, so now you’re touting their scammers?!?!

Mussolini tried that, but he could never pin down their roving location in the woods at 3:00 AM.

Well if so, they lost about 30% of their money
