That seems to be what most governments evolve into. Fear-mongering by the media, coupled with a general political disconnect from the working class, and the path is taken. All under the guise of, "It's for the children!".

Re: US becoming a police state???
In an Electronic Police State, every surveillance camera recording, every
email you send, every Internet site you surf, every post you make, every
check you write, every credit card swipe, every cell phone ping… are all
criminal evidence, and they are held in searchable databases, for a long,
long time. Whoever holds this evidence can make you look very, very bad
whenever they care enough to do so. You can be prosecuted whenever
they feel like it – the evidence is already in their database.

Paying cash, dropping your cell in the toilet, closing your bank account, quit posting on AFF, and send your cash to me so I can handle the details of erasing you from the system.

Baron, I know your post is TIC, but I will tell you that I rarely, if ever use a credit or debit card.
I pay cash for everything I possibly can.
