I agree with KY, credit/debit cards are handy but I sure don't want everything tracked. That's unAmerican.....


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Credit card is much safer, cleaner, cheaper, provides some side benefits, more efficient if you are doing transactions in another country/currency.



I agree

Ramsey in this case seems to be confusing Banks with Government.
Banks handle all my credit and debit transactions.

Correct.

Any sort of tracking at this point is used for targeted advertising..........just like Amazon or Ebay, Facebook etc. I'd be a lot more concerned about privacy where they are concerned.

If you write a check today it is eventually cleared by the Federal Reserve. So there is already some degree of interaction between you and the government at that point. Not so with credit cards

Eever since I got married I have noticed this cash shortage thing. I am going to get a sticker for my truck that says " The driver of this vehicle does not cary cash .... he is married " or something to that effect

Wal Mart quit accepting cash payments at self check-outs where I live. I asked why and was told people don't put in coins when they pay the odd cents. They just pay with bills and pocket the coins so they always have a coin shortage.

This is coming from a guy that thinks that the FED and centralized banking is good for the economy. Maybe its time to start thinking about future generations? Massive amounts of fiat could be taken out of circulation with the stroke of pen. Once that happens future generations will be enslaved.

People today can't count money. I've paid for meals two different times with cash and got back more change than I paid out to begin with.

I told my boys that according to the law of supply and demand a quarter should be worth more than $.25 right now. Wish things worked like that. I’ve got enough change to sink a battle ship

Some quarters are worth more than $.25, it's too bad quarters aren't still made of silver. Our standard of living might not have been as high but we wouldn't be in this mess.

Cash was king when the great depression hit. The people who had all their money on paper were the ones jumping out windows.

When $#@t hits the fan the people who can touch thier currency, be it a dollar or a sack of potatoes, are the people who will survive.
