I have paid cash for - everything - since the 90s.

Moebius Infinity's avatar

Same for me, but i had to skip on a few things as they refused to accept cash, and for instance they fed my icecream to the wastebin. Their loss, i showed them the cash but they refused to accept it.

Same thing when retuning to parking to discover the robot had no cash option, so i had to pretend my car was someone elses trailer when driving out.

Again i called the parking 'service' and offered to pay cash, there were about 5 witnesses who can confirm i wanted to pay cash, yet the operator refused my lawful currency.

So i had to be creative to get home as there were people waiting for me.

They refuse lawful currency, their loss.

This is so encouraging. Here in TN in 2022 Sen. Niceley and Rep. Hulsey had a simple bill that would require all retail transactions to accept cash when the customer wants to pay in cash. The bill failed in the Banking Committee and it was very obvious by the statements made the committee cared more about the businesses carry the water for the banks and digital currency than the citizens of Tennessee. They said it was not constitutional minded to force a business to accept cash BUT they had no problem forcing the customer to pay using a credit card or some other form of digital payment. Yes the customer could go somewhere else but eventually there will be no other place to go and even if there was the customer may not be in a position to travel to other locations. The testimony by Rep. Hulsey was brilliant but the challenges by the committee was very transparent. I have included the testimony for anyone interested in hearing it. I did not agree with watering the bill down to make it more palatable. One legislator said that by paying digitally would secure sales tax. He brought up merchants that offered a discount for people paying in cash and how it would affect sales tax revenues. He obviously ignored the fact that the merchant pays a transaction fee each time a customer pays by credit card. I frequent a merchant that gives a discount equal to the amount of the fee the credit card company would charge the merchant so there is no fudging sales tax. They add the sales tax based on the purchase price then deduct a small discount for using cash.

Thanks for reporting on this, Breeauna.

We need good examples like Ireland to keep us focused on the important avenues for pushback. I notice local supermarkets changing out their self-checkout machines so that they only accept cards and not cash. This is preposterous. The Banksters may not be the only people attempting control, but they are central players in the slide toward what RFK Jr. called "Turn-key Totalitarianism."

I’ve noticed that in some supermarkets and Home Depot’s, too.

I’ve also noticed an increase in people (like me), willing to stand in line to be checked out by a human checker. Even when self checkout is empty. Recently, I had a short and rewarding conversation with a self-check supervisor who politely invited me to use the empty self checkout because there were two customers ahead of me in line. I explained why I would rather wait, and in a quiet voice she agrees with me.

Viva la revolution!

I mentioned once to a ‘checkout manager’ that she’s helping the store phase out her job. She said “Oh no, it’s the future!” Apparently the future is made for stupid people.

Also, I’ve told them, to general agreement, that if the store wants me to do their job for them I want a discount.

Yes, the stupid (and those with no sense of autonomy) shall inherit the earth!

Unless the rest of us just engage in mass refusal and stop them so WE have a future, too…

The Forgotten Book That Warned the World of What Was to Come…

Almost a century ago, in the aftermath of the Russian Revolution, a former general named Arthur Cherep-Spiridovich published a book entitled:

“The Secret World Government, or The Hidden Hand.”

Writing from exile after the Bolshevik Revolution, he claimed that world events; revolutions, wars, and the slow destruction of Christian civilization, were not spontaneous but guided by a small inner circle he called the “Hidden Hand.”

According to him, this network of roughly 300 men, headed by Edouard Rothschild in Paris, ruled nations through finance, propaganda, and revolution.  He described them as “Judeo-Mongols,” a term that today we would recognise as referring to the Khazarian converts to Judaism.

He wrote:

“Almost nobody knows that all the so-called Satanic forces are autocratically led by Pan-Judaism, headed now by Edouard Rothschild V-th in Paris… he and 300 others compose the World Government, the ‘Hidden Hand’.”

And elsewhere:

“The world unrest is caused by the lust of murder of the Judeo-Mongols and their firm desire to smash the Aryans and to overthrow everything Christian.”

For Cherep-Spiridovich, the pattern was clear: behind every revolution, behind the press, the banks, and the new political ideologies stood the same guiding intelligence whose goal was to erase Christendom and replace it with a material, debt-driven world order.

He saw power migrating away from monarchs and governments toward creditors, industrialists, and invisible financiers; a global class whose loyalty lay not with nations but with their own continuity. He described them as masters of three instruments:

• Finance, because debt is the subtlest form of rule.

• Revolution, because chaos resets societies and erases memory.

• Information, because the public mind is the true battlefield.

He warned that this “Hidden Hand” would use its tools to dismantle Christian civilisation and replace it with a world ruled by materialism, debt, and perpetual conflict; a system in which governments would serve as administrators of a deeper agenda.

When we look around today at the alignment of global institutions, corporations, and intelligence agencies; at the moral inversion of media and education; at the wars that never end, and at who holds the strings of power, it is shocking to read his words. He warned us of everything that has transpired.

Cherep-Spiridovich may have written in 1926, yet he was describing the architecture of our own age.

They're having a bunch of issues with credit card fraud that they can't get a handle on, and the govt thinks they're going to manage digital IDs and CBDCs? Good freaking luck.

Lets see how long it takes for the Dutch, the Belgians and the Germans to start reasoning along the same lines. Same for others, but my focus is on these three.

Specially the Dutch as they have a special tax evasion sandwich with the Irish.

Now for something completely different - the fraud of compelled performance under birth certification is now on public record. We need only to be brave and wise enough to stand up as the living wo/man:

Indeed, they've got everyone looking ever-deeper into the entrapment through their endless inter-fear-ance, so we will continue as debtors and fail to see the fraud.

By perfected commercial record, the Central Banks no longer stand as creditor; rather they hold the status as debtor to the Living Estate and to the Nations they presumed to secure.

In effect, all former international creditors, including, without limitation, the Vatican, Bank for International Settlements, Crown Corporation, and Bank of England, et al, now stand adjudicated by perfected commercial record and divine covenant as debtors to the Living Estate.

Their claims upon the living, most grievously embodied in the birth certificate securitisation system, are void ab initio. Founded in fraud, sustained in silence, and cloaked in commerce, their claims now meet their end.

Now the living wo/man need only stand in honour of All That Is Freely Given on our beautiful planet to overcome the inertia of habitual compliance with deception (force of habit) from cradle-to-grave

Many times I was asked to pay at self check out empty counter by the busy counter assistant. I told her directly that if everyone do that she will be jobless and she agreed.

Great news! Go, Ireland!

I do these things every day and make mention to to the recipients of why I do so. It’s mainly to preserve the use of cash, and also to screw the ccard companies, who ding your credit score if you use more than 30% of your credit limit.

Lots of local vendors love cash because they save the ccard fees. Some will give me a discount for the the ccard charge they don’t have to pay. That’s not usually a lot of money, but, hey, every penny counts these days!

Murkans don’t realize… WE ALREADY HAVE THAT.

Cash is LEGAL TENDER. That’s what it means. Time is getting near for us to RISE and say FLOCK ARF, rotten tomatoes.

Roc Findlay's avatar

If you have to take an item(s) back because they don't work & you ask for a credit, do they also recredit the extra payment added on for EVERY transaction because the retailer let's the customer pick up the tab? Pay cash & if they don't like it, walk.

A supermarket in France stopped accepting cash, so some customers filled their trollies to the top, placed everything on the conveyor belt and when the checkout refused to accept their cash, the customers just walked out. The staff were forced to put everything back in its proper place. Within 4 weeks the supermarket started accepting cash again.

A political move by a dead government looking ahead to the next election. The people have to enforce this law, if not the bankers win.

That’s good news.

More of this please.
