Mwahahaha (in an evil laugh) Bad Dog No! UBehave or no UBI. Mwahahaha!
Good points. I chose to ignore that for this post but I admit to feeling unnerved at that the thought of even interacting with my government let alone giving them so much power over people.
I'de put more trust in sewer rats.
@luzcypher We won't have to ""GIVE"" them the power, or have the choice not to "Interact".... They're going to TAKE it!!!! I really believe all Western Nations will soon be forcing their populations to go "Cashless". The Central banks are a ""One Trick Pony" and they've played their cards already. The only thing they have left to keep the economies from caving completely (And their owners, the big banks,) is to play the negative rate card. This means all the fiat currencies will be forced into the banks, so people can be charged a fee for the PRIVILEGE of having any money!!! I think there will be a great war on crypto currencies that's only now just starting.
"Cryptos" give people an option! Block chain makes the banks "Inconsequential". It makes them useless Intermediaries. Crypto currencies will make the necessity of having to put every hard earned penny into the banking system, and have - it, your transactions, and life controlled by Big Brother avoidable. There will be stories of govt Goons using force at gun point, and assaulting people to force them into the banking system. This will be so that even more can be extracted from them. I for one, plan on "Going long on Steem"!!!
