Is your labor worth digits or real money? Is the employer going to transfer real money to your bank account or is he going to transfer digits? I guess we'll all be working for digits instead of real money and our labor will have no value. That's not going to work out when it comes to paying the tax man, I can tell you that right now. Nobody is going to want to give up there hard earned digits to the tax man or to a government that offers nothing in return. We have that kind of government now, but it will only be more obvious when we go to a cashless society.

I would never use a system like this unless I had no other choice. Ill make sure I do have other choices by the time this gets to the US though.

They always test everything on the Asians first!:(:rolleyes:
Singapore is another place which is going to be a trial for the cashless society.
