​Stores to customers: "Cash not welcome here"
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/stores-to-customers-cash-not-welcome-here/
To get a glimpse of the future of commerce in America, look no further than Sweden.
The Scandinavian country is largely a cashless society, with consumers relying on mobile phone payments or plastic. While the U.S. is still far from achieving the same level of cash-free existence, increasing numbers of restaurants and retailers are now snubbing the lowly dollar bill.
Some merchants such as SweetGreen, a salad chain, refuse to open their registers for cash, telling customers they can pay only with mobile payments or cards. With some newer vending machines, only a card or mobile wallet will get that cold Coca-Cola to roll down the chute.
I am not too sure about a cashless society. Not a good idea for sure.

Cashless society = total State control.

Well, they won't be getting my business. I prefer to deal in cash, there's no chance of any of my accounts being hacked when (Not 'If') their payment system gets compromised.

That may have been foretold somewhere . . .

Yup. And they love it that way in Sweden.
If that should come to these shores, they'll have to scrub the statement "This note is legal tender for all debts, public and private" off our currency. But hell, that's no problem at all with the speed that the Fed prints money. :whatever:
