Well the Press is fully in bed with government and are advocating eliminating cash because someone broke into an ATM. Using this logic, we should all walk around naked as well and then we do not need the TSA to search us for obviously we could not hide a weapon.
This is how it works. The media sells ideas and try to get the public all ready to accept the coming cashless society so we have no privacy and make sure everyone pays 120% of an taxes the government will raise to line their own pockets.
Thank you for defending the people.
