The liars in the media are doing their best to scare people out of using cash.

The idea of a cashless society where all transactions are tracked and traced is one that has been advanced by the establishment for awhile. It is really nothing new. Unfortunately, this agenda has been pushed into overdrive with the ongoing pandemic hoax. The media is literally trying to make people believe that using cash will help spread the coronavirus.

Like the coronavirus itself, it is nothing more than wild fear mongering.

Take for example this Los Angeles Times headline which shows a picture of an Asian woman disinfecting paper bills.

The Los Angeles Times isn’t the only media outlet doing things like this.

The Associated Press ran a piece focusing heavily on people’s fears of using cash, even though they admit in their own article that the risk of spreading the virus by using cash is minimal.

In troubled times, people have been known to hoard currency at home — a financial security blanket against deep uncertainty. But in this crisis, things are different. This time cash itself, passed from hand to hand across neighborhoods, cities and societies just like the coronavirus, is a source of suspicion rather than reassurance.

No longer a thing to be shoved mindlessly into a pocket, tucked into a worn wallet or thrown casually on a kitchen counter, money’s status has changed during the virus era — perhaps irrevocably. The pandemic has also reawakened debate about the continued viability of what has been the physical lifeblood of global economies: paper money and coins.

From the supermarkets of the United States and Japan to the shantytowns of Africa to the gas stations of Tehran, a growing number of businesses and individuals worldwide have stopped using banknotes in fear that physical currency, handled by tens of thousands of people over their useful life, could be a vector for the spreading coronavirus.

Public officials and health experts have said that the risk of transferring the virus from person to person through the use of money is minimal. That hasn’t stopped businesses from refusing to accept currency, and some countries from urging citizens to stop using banknotes altogether.

They obviously want people to stop using cash because cash transactions can’t be recorded in a computer database. So if you convince enough people that you could catch a virus and die by using cash, it means that more people will voluntarily stop using cash.

Specifically, it appears as if the establishment wants to implement a new digital currency, implant a microchip in everybody and make it impossible for people to participate in the mainstream economy without said microchip. We can probably assume that this entire system would work through 5G wireless connectivity or some other type of future network technology that has yet to be rolled out.

This anti-cash propaganda we are seeing advanced is designed to make people more comfortable with participating in this satanic economic beast system they have planned for us. We can probably assume that such a system will be presented as the solution once the existing monetary system implodes. And considering what’s happening economically, there is a higher percentage than zero that this system will collapse sooner rather than later.

The countries that are pushing hardest for a “cashless” society are, of course, the Scandinavians. Why? Well, because the government wants to do two things:

Deny dissidents the ability to participate in the economy

And

Charge negative interest rates.

You gotta read between the lines:

Fewer than 10 percent of Norwegians are still using paper currency or coins, which could completely disappear in a decade, according to the local authorities.

Jon Nicolaisen, the deputy governor of Norway’s central bank, has said Norwegian society has become cashless, and that this is very much a present reality rather than a future dream.

“By approximation, I would argue that the present is cashless,” he said at the City Week conference at London’s Guildhall in a discussion on the future of paper currency, chaired by the Bank of England’s chief cashier.

“According to our latest numbers, we have less than 3 percent of broad money in cash. Less than 10 percent of the number of transactions, including buying coffees, are in cash,” he said.

Norway’s chief banker added that the phenomenon has nothing to do with the Bank of Norway’s policy, it’s just the wish of the people. “We have no wish to eliminate cash. It is the public itself that chooses other means of payment,” he said.

Cashlessness is on the rise globally, as more and more people are abandoning paper money. Scandinavia and neighboring Finland have been the leaders in this area.

Sweden is the ‘most cashless nation’, with barely 1 percent of the value of all payments made using coins or notes. For example, the country has banned cash on buses for concerns over drivers’ safety.

“In the not-too-distant future, Sweden may become a society in which cash is no longer generally accepted,” the Swedish central bank has said.

However, not everyone is pleased in Scandinavia about the cashless system. In Sweden, there is a movement called Kontantupproret (the cash insurgency), which demands that people should decide what form of money to use, not just banks and businesses. 

Lol, that last part is pretty cyberpunk. I approve.

So the first goal is pretty straight-forward. There is a push to do away with cash because this way the government can keep tabs on where you travel, where you keep your money and then sell that information to corporations trying to gather data on you to create a consumer profile.

Only, in the near future, banks will just stop doing business with political dissidents. They’ll stop giving out credit cards. And at that point, political dissidents won’t be able to buy anything at all or hold down a job and effectively be starved out of society.

Or the government will just block/take away certain people’s credit cards, ability to pay for regular stuff in society.

An easy, no-fuss way to deter dissent. Very passive-aggressive. Back-handed and indirect. Totalitarianism Swedish-style.

The second benefit of a cashless society is also interesting. 

Negative interest rates work like this – well, first imagine positive interest rates.

Basically, you put money in the bank and you collect a percentage on your money because what the bank is doing is they’re playing around with your money, investing it, speculating, whatever – and they’re paying you for the privilege of monkeying around with your money.

If there are high-interest rates, people are encouraged to save. Because the more they have in the bank, and the longer they have it, the more money they make.

If interest rates become lower, people are incentivized to take their money out and spend it. The logic is simple – why bother keeping it in the bank, sitting on it like an egg when you’re making nothing in interest. Better to just go out and buy that TV now.

Now, negative interest rates would have a similar effect. 

In other words, the longer you kept your money in the bank, the more money you would lose.

Why would a bank do this? Well, if the government wanted to stimulate the economy, get people to save less and consume more to increase GDP, they could use this tool to encourage people to go out and buy shit quick because their money is losing its value every day, so it’s better to get that TV now than tomorrow when it’ll cost 5% more or something.

So this is an incredibly useful tool for any GloboHomoTechnoCorpo state.

And stupid consumerist normies will lap it up. They’ll try to sell it as a convenience. Or an anti-robbery measure. We are literally probably only a decade away before people become too lazy to swipe their credit cards and enter their pins, so they’ll have dermal chips or barcodes imprinted on them.

And if I know normies at all, you’ll be seen as weird for not hopping on the barcode fad.

So, yeah, I’m joining the Cashless Insurgency for sure. It sounds pretty cyberpunk and rad, so I’m totally down.

The government on Tuesday authorized establishment of a committee that will examine ways to eliminate cash from the Israeli economy – the better to prevent citizens from cheating on their taxes. The committee will be chaired by Harel Locker, director of the Prime Minister’s Office.

Cash is easily passed from individual to individual, and transactions using cash can take place without the tax man’s supervision. Not so electronic transactions; with modern computers, banks can keep tabs on how much people deposit into their accounts and how much they withdraw, while credit card companies have an up to the second record of how much people spend.

Members of the panel will include top staff from the Israel Police, the Tax Authority, the chairman of the Government Authority on Money Laundering and Terror, the Bank of Israel’s income and payments director, State Attorney’s office officials, and more.

According to many of these officials, cash is bad – because it allows individuals to get out of their tax payment responsibilities. Today, an enterprising tax collector cannot easily compare income and outflow. While he may suspect that a person living beyond his reported means is cheating on his taxes, there is no way to know for sure, without solid evidence. In a cashless economy, all records will be electronic, and checking who makes what and how much they owe in taxes – and collecting it before it gets to their account – will be a much simpler matter, the theory goes.
