I don’t even want my bank to know where I shop and go, much less any other snoopers.

Indeed, and the wife and I are already transitioning to just plain cash.

For no other reason than to tick off the govt dorks.

As for comms, someone come up with a good means of encasing msgs in pictures (some random collection of LSBs in the pic would work....albeit with the warning that that randomess heeds to change). Keep the picture flow going - overload them.

They already consider me a terrorist because of my limited government mindset so why should I give them any info on me period. And besides why do they need to know how many damn carrots I eat or how often I change the oil in my car. It is none of their damn business.

The larger the purchase, the more the transaction is scrutinized. Daily small amount won't be a problem.

Any amount over $10 MUST be reported, though.

Use cash anyway. Take draws on your credit card and shop with cash. Many retailers, when asked, will discount for cash. Also, buy as much food locally as possible as a great deal of our food is now, "Distributed by...", with country of orign identified. BGood....Ross
