The skinny on the planned cashless society

A control grid beyond even Hitler's imagination
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Let's see, you awake one morning, have breakfast and head for the
office!

While you were asleep "Echelon" flags a sentence you wrote in an email
last week and sent it for 'further inspection" to a reviewer who, incidentally voted for Bush!

You stop at the gas station where your card is refused! Your debit account
shows you have no funds. You call the bank they say you'll have to come in to discuss this matter. Meanwhile you have to call on friends to come help you pay for your gas. That's when you notice that your cellphone has stopped working.
Unfortunately, you're so used to speed dial you don't know anyone's number and information 411 cost 50 cents, so you power up your laptop but it too is blank.
Welcome to the brave new world.
