As long as there is cash the govt will not be able to control the sheep. They have to get rid of cash at all costs.

This was a corner Walgreens, most people trying to buy milk, bread, beer and other food via plastic.
I had baby cold medicine and a pack of diapers, plus cash. As I was the only person out of half a dozen with cash and the cashier had a register but not way to verify plastic cards, I paid and walked out with change.

Yes, cash will be king when the electricity dies and the banks close their doors, and the card companies go dark. I shudder to think of it.

If you think cash is an "anonymous" transaction, you would be mistaken in most cases.

I walked to the store and bought something with cash this morning wearing a parka with the hood up. Can you tell me what I bought?

Many government offices take nothing but cash (eg Recorder’s Office)

That’s a dumb response. You can do better than that!
