War on cash coin shortage

For you members of the Dave Ramsey cult

DAVE_RAMSEY said:
. HERES WHAT NO CASH ACTUALLY MEANS:

A cashless society means no cash. Zero. It doesn’t mean mostly cashless and you can still use a ‘wee bit of cash here & there’. Cashless means fully digital, fully traceable, fully controlled. I think those who support a cashless society aren’t fully aware of what they are asking for. A cashless society means:

* If you are struggling with your mortgage on a particular month, you can’t do an odd job to get you through.

* Your child can’t go & help the local farmer to earn a bit of summer cash.

* No more cash slipped into the hands of a child as a good luck charm or from their grandparent when going on holidays.

* No more money in birthday cards.

* No more piggy banks for your child to collect pocket money & to learn about the value of earning.

* No more cash for a rainy day fund or for that something special you have been putting $20 a week away for.

* No more little jobs on the side because your wages barely cover the bills or put food on the table.

* No more charity collections.

* No more selling bits & pieces from your home that you no longer want/need for a bit of cash in return.

* No more cash gifts from relatives or loved ones.

What a cashless society does guarantee:

* Banks have full control of every single penny you own.

* Every transaction you make is recorded.

* All your movements & actions are traceable.

* Access to your money can be blocked at the click of a button when/if banks need ‘clarification’ from you which will take about 3 weeks, a thousand questions answered & five thousand passwords.

* You will have no choice but to declare & be taxed on every dollar in your possession.

* The government WILL decide what you can & cannot purchase.

* If your transactions are deemed in any way questionable, by those who create the questions, your money will be frozen, ‘for your own good’.

Forget about cash being dirty. Stop being so easily led. Cash has been around for a very, very, very long time & it gives you control over how you trade with the world. It gives you independence. I heard a story where a man supposedly contracted Covid because of a $20 bill he had handled. There is the same chance of Covid being on a card as being on cash. If you cannot see how utterly ridiculous this assumption is then there is little hope.

If you are a customer, pay with cash. If you are a shop owner, remove those ridiculous signs that ask people to pay by card. Cash is a legal tender, it is our right to pay with cash. Banks are making it increasingly difficult to lodge cash & that has nothing to do with a virus, nor has this ‘dirty money’ trend.

Please open your eyes. Please stop believing everything you are being told. Almost every single topic in today’s world is tainted with corruption & hidden agendas. Please stop telling me & others like me that we are what’s wrong with the world when you hail the most corrupt members of society as your heroes. Politics & greed is what is wrong with the world; not those who are trying to alert you to the reality in which you are blindly floating along whilst being immobilised by irrational fear. Fear created to keep you doing & believing in exactly what you are complacently doing.

Pay with cash & please say no to a cashless society while you still have the choice.

NY got all shitty, last year? about forcing business to accept cash because something like 20% of NYC doesn't use a traditional bank and the city claimed digital transaction only street vendors were discriminatory :lmao:

ain't no overreach like gubbmint overreach!
 
Exactly, it's not like coins wear out. I don't think the good ol' change bucket would make that big a difference either, Interesting that I've heard of no other countries having this problem. I think something else is afoot here.

Where I work (compost facility from residential trash) we used find around $20 a day in change. That doesnt count what stays on the belts and goes into secondary refining.

They have since tigtened some belts, so nothing not much bounces off now except dimes.

Lots of change gets thrown out. New pennies typically dont survive the bioreactor. Nothing survives the secondary process as usable change except gold/silver.

You arent alone. Vet wanted me to pay with a card over the phone yesterday before I had even been there. $19 to check a puppy poopy sample, told her I'd give whomever a $20 and they could credit my account. Got there, couldn't go in unless i had a mask which i dont, but they would sell me one for a buck. Fuck that, waddle your ass out here, take my dog shit and my cash. I dont care what it is or where it is, if I cant pay for it in cash I'm leaving it sit and you can put it all away while I take my business elsewhere. I go a few places that will actually give a cash discount, they have quality service and if I can save a few percent on a 4 figure bill I wont complain.
 
Nothing to really add other than....

Cash is King.
My dad taught me that long ago. Many things he did when I was a kid was handled by local business with a handshake and cash. I've lived in the same community for 30 years and have some strong ties to independent local shops of all kinds. I've taught my son some of the same traits, It's amazing what a short conversation a hand shake and cash will get you.

Again......

I generally pay cash for just about everything (except monthly bills, which is either automatic debit or check, and obviously any online purchases).

Saw something interesting last week. A new market opened up in my town, they have been open for about 2-3 months now, I finally went in to check it out. Everything was very new and modern (prices and menus were on big TVs hug from the ceiling, and such). But oddly enough, they are "Cash only". Which is completely fine by me, but made me stop and think, why would they purposefully be cash only? Most folks don't pay for things with cash in hand.

Maybe they wanted to skip the cost of the machines and ability to use credit cards? That doesn't seem likely, since they had a lot of $ put into the business, new everything inside.

Maybe it takes a while to get credit card machines setup for a new business?

There's a lot of math whiz's here. Am I (and others like me) the problem? I absolutely NEVER pay for anything with coins. I can't stand having change in my pocket. I do pay with cash, so I'll buy something with cash and get coins in change. I won't even put the coins in my pocket, I hold them in my hand walk to the truck and put them in my cup holder. Every once in a while I'll go through all my vehicles, collect the coins and put them in a 1 gallon glass jar in the house. About once a year I have amassed about $150 bucks in coins. I used to be able to go to the bank and for free exchange my coins for the cash. Now all the banks near me got rid of their coin machines, and it forces me to use coinstar which charges 10% of your change turned in, to turn it into paper dollars again. I'm not giving 15 dollars to fuck ass coin star to turn my coins into paper which I would carry. So I'm saving the coins as i gather them to give to my kid. I've probably got over $200 in coins sitting around, I know of people who have 5 gallon buckets full of coins.

If we all turned that shit into the banks would this "coin shortage" disappear? Or are coins being pulled from circulation?

Little trick to screw the Coinstar machine... Get a gift cert. instead of cash. The gift cert. guys pay the fees, you get 100% of what you dump in, and there's a PILE of certs. available, including Lowes and Amazon around here. I'm sure it varies per region, but I'm sure you can find >something< you'd use. Last batch I took in was about $100, got an Amazon card, went home and ordered 'Burb parts. Easy peasy and I got 100% of what I took in. Makes sense, as Amazon probably pays Coinstar 2-3% instead of the 10% they hit consumers for, and they'd rather have 98% of your money than 0%... :laughing: :flipoff2:
 
Must be a regional thing, we don't have any issues here.
ETA: People aren't taking their spare change to coinstar so they have gambling cash !
 
Pro tip, every time you walk by a coinstar machine check the rejected coins slot. Our niece did once on a whim and got 3-$1 coins that were rejected and nobody checked. Since then she’s found over $10 in the reject slots. Today our daughter checked one at Walmart and found $0.76. :smokin:

It's a covert govt. effort to stop the spread of covid.

... makes zero sense. But what does these days.
 
Convenient stores are starting to post signs about a coin shortage and exact change only.

I put my tinfoil hat back on.
 
Lots of places here too saying exact change or card only.



Cash doesn't have an identity attached to it and can't be traced. That why the banks running the fed are choking it. Pretty soon you'll need proof that you took the vaccine and they'll know the second you swipe your mastercard. It'll be just like trying to live without wearing a mask, but with no cash. Good luck getting into your local grocery store chain, a bank, the dmv, or pay your power bill without getting vaccinated and using a card. You can still ride a bicycle and go to local businesses...if they haven't been destroyed yet by this forced economic depression.

The government doesn’t want us to go cashless. Without cash, drug sales, trafficking, prostitution, etc could not survive. Without these things, they would lose control.

On top of that, we can simply round up and the problem disappears.

One catch tho, make Sure you take a picture of your receipt/gift cert, the print on those crappy things will fade in a couple days! Ask me how I know-🙄

The goobermint is using this false flag manufactured plandemic to remove coins from circulation because fully traceable electronic only transactions lets the new world order hollow earth lizard people track everything you own and it's also somehow related to the number of the beast in the bibble.

Uh oh you mentioned Numbers and the Bible, now I have to remind you that Isaac Newton, as far as we know the smartest human being ever to walk the face of planet Earth, spent most of his time deciphering what he thought was an underlying mathematical code in the Bible.

When you have invented Calculus from scratch over a summer because your friend Edmund Halley asked you to explain the elliptical nature of planetary orbits, then you'll be able to make 'numbers in the Bible' references. Or, you can explain the the Laws of non-Relativistic Motion. Or, you could demonstrate that light is composed of multiple colors and posit a fairly good explanation for why that was 200 years before the development of Quantum Mechanics. You can do any one of those three things, and still get by. Newton did them all, and more, and Newton was a Numerologist.

Newton found 72 of the 78 "species" of cubic curves and categorised them into four types.[SUP][when?][/SUP] In 1717, and probably with Newton's help, James Stirling proved that every cubic was one of these four types. Newton also claimed that the four types could be obtained by plane projection from one of them, and this was proved in 1731, four years after his death.[SUP][68][/SUP]

Isaac Newton is so smart, I don't even know what that means.

I like my American greenbacks as much as the next guy, but this attitude really is a privilege. George Soros made $1 Billion in one day buying and shorting Pounds Sterling because the UK government tried to keep their currency pegged to the German Exchange Rate Mechanism.

Germans are picky about their currency value because Weimar

Venezuela recently had 1000% daily inflation rates (not adjusted over 365 days, 1000% in one day).

The US has had just about 200 years of solid currency values with a predictable inflation rate. That's rather unusual in world history.

Tomorrow, the entire rest of the planet could just decide to stop paying for petroleum in USD, and the Saudis and other oil countries would have no choice but to accept payment in kind or other currencies. Because foreign State players use sophisticated machines to print fake $100 USD bills, and there is so much bogus cash out there, US cash would plummet in value instantly.

Now you're stuck shoveling cash into your truck with a shovel to go to Wal Mart (which you shouldn't be shopping at SHAME ON YOU!)

I live in Colorado, work in New Mexico. Drive into NM in the morning and spend all day there. Yesterday when I was headed home, I needed gas. Stopped at the Speedway for fuel and tried to buy an IceCream bar with cash. They said they couldn't give change for cash, so I paid for 1.27 ICB with my debit card. Drive home to Colorado and SO wants to go to the grocery store. At the register my chick asks the gal at the till if they're still taking cash. The gal running the till (who is the daughter of the owner) replies "Is that really a thing?" So my chick has me tell her the ice cream bar story, to which gal running the till says "that's not a real thing" and exchanged our cash and coins no problem. So I asked if they have any problems getting their exchange done with the bank to which she says "no".

So I don't know what TF is going on.

Mississippi? has acknowledged that if you offer to pay cash and a business refuses, you are legally paid in full. A business can refuse legal tender at their own cost......
 
Out in BFE where I live there are several places that only take cash - No Cards!
AZ also recently passed a law that makes gold and silver legal tender.
