You have a severe lack of imagination. You must be fun at parties.
There are a myriad of ways Sweden can and probably is enforcing cashless trends through surveillance and coercion. Encouraging banks and retailers to refuse cash services, as referenced in the article, is likely done by the government. This enhances their ability to track and control all monetary transactions for any number of reasons (nefarious or otherwise).
- irascible 8y agoSound like you have an overactive imagination, and are probably Not fun at parties. I imagine you said the same thing about email, and continue to hand write all your correspondence to keep it out of the gubmints hands? Physical money is disgusting. Might as well use poo sticks as currency...
