Daily Mail (UK) ^ | 2/28/2022 | ANDREW PRENTICE

As Australian banks continue to focus on digital transactions for customers, ATMs and bank branches are disappearing across the country, according to new data.

The analysis revealed close to 460 bank branches have shut down across the nation in recent years, and dating back to 2020, approximately 3800 previously active ATMs have been removed.

NSW alone now has 140 fewer in-store banks, and almost 300 suburbs don't have a singular ATM to withdraw cash.

They are starting that here too. Before 2008 there was thousands of banks, after the real estate fall those banks were squeezed out in favor of a few banks. Now you have to look to find a branch.

Hopefully the memory of Russians strggling to by metro tickets will wake people up to the essential need for cash.

Pricks. Time to go back to barter, or some kind of private currency.

And when they take your 401K, 403B, Deferred Comp, Annuities, savings and checking accounts then you will achieve what Klaus Schwab wants…”You will own nothing, and you will be happy. Of course this is after he murders 3 Billion “useless eaters..”

I choose not to participate.

“No “vaccine”? No money for you, mate.”

Yup, this is the future. There putting the pieces together one at a time.

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.

-C.S.Lewis

So is universal basic income. Enjoy your 100% tax rate.

It’s a pre-requisite, if we are to go to outer space and meet some Vulcans.

Soon you will need your approved QR coded passport showing up to date vaxx status just to access your money. They are going to perform financial tyranny against their own citizens to keep us all in line.

And in Canada the Trudeau government tried to get the banks and credit card companies to freeze the accounts of people it didn’t like. Notice a pattern here?
