EXCHANGE LIBERTY FOR CONVENIENCE - INTO THE "TRAP"

We are giving up Liberty in exchange for convenience.

o Paper receipts are easier to carry and exchange than silver or gold.

o Paper "redeemable on demand" is more convenient than paper receipts made payable to an individual

o One-size of paper is easier to use that multi-size currency

o Paper issued in common denominations is easier to use than paper of inconsistent amounts

o Checks are easier than paper

o Credit cards are easier than checks

o Keychain credit cards are easier than wallet/purse credit cards

o Smartphone taps are easier than credit cards

o Smartwatch taps are even easier (think Apple Pay on iWatches)

o Biometric chip scans are the easiest of all

Voila! We willingly walk along the golden brick road right into the trap.

History proves each prior form of “currency” is eliminated
once the new form is widely accepted, inevitably leading
to nothing but RFID chips … unless the Public wakes up.

Kirk,

Thank you for your consistent monitoring of all things political. I will continue to give you feedback.

I agree that cash may be only a matter of time, but that is only an inward hunch. Walmart will be among the leaders in that 'evolution'. It would be interesting to get a handle on the % of Walmart customers who are on a government payroll, government aid program or social security. Those are all very simple categories that Walmart and the governmental agency could easily convert to a rechargeable card in lieu of cash.

Frightening.

Keep punchin' my friend, XXXXX
