Cash is king: The problems of a cashless society

Many people will have by now heard of ‘The cashless society’ and the CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) something that could be a reality in the coming years.

To understand fully of what this means just imagine cash was completely gone and banks were a thing of the past although many will still have an online presence of sorts, everything is paid for by your bank card.

Then one day after months even years of no outages at midday everything went down! now you can imagine the situation, everyone would go into a panic of the sorts no one has ever seen, people at petrol stations with almost or no petrol in the tank no longer able to go home or pick the kids up! you’re no longer able to buy essential products, no longer able to do anything, you, your family, your friends all now stranded.

If you want this then keep going to cashless places because buying into this means places like ASDA will believe it’s what people want, we urge you to use another petrol station, or supermarket or store, whilst this might seem inconvenient at the time you are playing in the hands of those in power to dictate what the future will be in the near future.

It is now people need to seriously think about a cashless society where printed money and coins will be long gone, something to fall back on is in most people’s minds and we agree! however as stated if everyone buys into a supermarket, store or petrol station that has card only payment there will be no ‘Fall back on’

This is so serious that despite the time it will take for a cashless society will take which will be a while yet, it is now! that the government are testing this out and watching how people respond, it is now! we have to tell them and the Bank of England that we do not want cash to go and we do not want card only.

Some people on social media we asked are actually happy to be paying only with a card, however once we told them the reality they changed tune and admitted that they actually wanted it to be the same as it is now! a choice.

It is up to you where you go to do shopping or getting the petrol for the car or motorbike but it is also your choice to make sure we continue to have a choice which ultimately means older people and the most vulnerable will also be protected.

We ask you why all the banks are closing? this is not a conspiracy it’s happening, having no banks is a clever move since without them how can anyone get any cash….do you see where this is going? the excuses that because of the pandemic no one was using the banks, bank usage is higher now than at any other time which proves cash is king!
