Why do many people in developed countries strongly oppose a cash-free society? Please think deeply about the reasons behind it!
Now Alipay, social app payment and other electronic payments in China popular, crazy growth, there is a need to achieve the momentum of a cash-free society. But electronic payments have always been difficult to develop in many developed countries, and people wonder what makes such a big difference.
In fact, the reason is: the vast majority of our people are welcome to electronic payment, at least not opposed. On the contrary, people in many developed countries have deep concerns and doubts about electronic payment, a cash-free society.
The following is why foreign citizens oppose electronic payments:
First, for a cash-free society, people in developed countries exclaimed: isn't this the slavery of the Roman Empire in the new era?
The thinking of the foreign population is that:
Entering a cash-free society means that all your payments can only be done through payment models set up by a few financial institutions.
If you don't use it, you can't survive in society, you can't live a day. Because you can't buy food, you can't buy drinks, you can't buy things, you can't travel.
This becomes an economic compulsion and oppression, you can't get rid of it, you can't survive without it. Even more so for future generations, their fate will flow like duckweed!
2, enter a cash-free society, and since then the money in your pocket is just one number in a few financial institutions, a few of which control the fate of all citizens. Maybe one day you wake up because of some natural or man-made disaster or some other reason your money suddenly disappears and disappears without a trace and you will have nothing to do with it.
Germany experienced a currency collapse after World War I and World War II, and the German people suddenly had a painful feeling of having nothing at all.
The Japanese also suffered from a currency collapse after World War II and a sudden loss of everything.
So for the citizens of many developed countries: cash is the bottom line of last resort, promoting a cash-free society and further weakening their control of their wealth, which they cannot tolerate!
Second, what is the right to privacy in a cash-free society?
All payments are made electronically, which means that all your payments are monitored by certain financial institutions.
What books did you buy, where you went, what you ate, what hotels you stayed in, and what kind of entertainment you had.
The payment that you have already placed but not yet gone will reveal where you are going, what you are going to do, what you are going to eat, which hotel you are going to stay, what entertainment you are going to do, and what you are afraid of!
For foreign nationals who attach importance to the right to privacy, such a cash-free society, they must not tolerate!
Earlier this year, under the banner of anti-terrorism, anti-money laundering and anti-tax evasion, the European Commission wanted to further advance the cash-free society by introducing rules to further limit the cap on cash transactions in 2018. But it was strongly boycott by people in Europe, and the German people reacted particularly hard because they knew what it was all about.
Undeniable, electronic payment makes people's life, the payment behavior in work becomes more convenient and fast.
For the general public, its benefits are limited to this, but its disadvantages are many, not only seriously eroded the people's control of their wealth, seriously eroded the people's privacy, and will affect future generations.
