<p>[QUOTE="Moen1305, post: 1744209, member: 2544"]The vast majority of people in this country do not have hard money at their disposal even with the option available to them. That doesn't represent much of a defense if people have the option and don't use it. If people have actual vast quantities of hard money, it is in all likelihood sitting in a bank where it is just as susceptible to computer hackers and bank officials. I used to say that I'd never use an ATM but now I prefer them to actual tellers. People will go with what they get used to whether it is a coinless/cashless society or a credit based society. I currently use a debit card more often than I use cash. I almost never have cash in my wallet. I and many others are already on our way to a cashless society whether we know it or not. It is coming and I bet it isn’t that far off. My paycheck is deposited directly to the bank. I use my debit card to draw on those funds. I pay bills electronically. I shop for groceries using a debit card. I am virtually using credits now. It’s coming.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
