Convid also scared the living daylights out of me too and not due to something that had a 99.3% survival rate, but because of the mindless obedience to authority displayed by the vast majority. The cashless society is all about control masquerading as convenience, so for heavens sake people learn something from your 2020-2023 experience. Be prepared as they are going to push the CBDCs narrative just as they did the 'pandemic'. I prefer to call CBDCs slave coins, as that is exactly what they will be if we lose the cash option. If you think this is all some conspiracy theory you may not have noticed that most of those theories from the past 4 years are regularly turning into facts these days. Fiat paper is bad enough given the unlimited printing, debt and increasing restrictions associated with carrying it, but if you think it's bad now, just wait until we are all corralled into a CBDC only world.
