Are you living of social welfare? Why would you pay 30-40% taxes and have private healthcare, private pension, private highways...? What are you living for, what are you trading your life for?

To show that you care for your life time you gave away.
Because it is disappearing and money is only what is left when you trade your life time. If I'm trading my only true value, my time, then I want to have 100% control over it, not to depend if some bank would freeze my account and I lost 1/3 of my life irreversible.
We will never know if we don't try. There is a reason why cash is being replaced with social credit system and digital currency.
There are stores that doesn't allow cash any more. That is border illegal, as cash is legal instrument for trading. You can't even open bank account without having mobile phone. Why all those restrictions? So to open bank account you already need to borrow money just to satisfy requirements. But it is your money that you are giving to bank. And what if I don't want to have phone. Something is off and I think cash needs protection. We will know once we lose it, so why wait, let's see if it makes difference.
I've learn in school that humans always eat meat, and tribes that had more resources were stronger. There are some proteins that we can get only from meat. But I have feeling it is not about choice. They want to remove meat all together. Same with cash. I still don't know why, and I don't want to know. I just want to be inline with nature as I evolved and born.
So ~~you~~ they think that voting makes difference? (sorry if I mispronounce you, unintentional, please do not report)
But we were not aware that banks can hold your money and take it away from you. That was new to me.
I don't know, I remember times when you would get 10 - 11% just for regular saving, keeping money in the bank. Now you saying they are making me favor with cheep account. What are their cost when I give them my money. And most of the value is not in cash, it is virtual. So I would like to see actual reaction instead of speculating. There was also in recent times when you could get paid in cash, you still have that right, but other new laws demands employer to do all business over banks, so even you have that right employer can't do it, that is strange for me.
Interesting thought, there were no mental health issues in rural areas, when you need to get up early and do some work in the field to feed your family. Mental issues are product of this newer way of life. Not sure why, but guessing we are getting farther from the nature we were evolved and our mind can't keep up. Not talking about clinical mental issues caused by genetics, simple depression, anxiety and those new/modern illness.
