I hope everyone will read Dave Ramsey’s comments about going cashless. It’s a two minute read. No one has explained it better. He brings up several situations I'd never considered.
I took this picture of my receipt in my beautiful town Kerrville Texas. I support this and I can see how this could affect our kids by having gaps in work ethic, financial literacy, and community connection.
Dave Ramsey repost:
HERE'S WHAT NO CASH ACTUALLY MEANS:
A cashless society means no cash. Zero. It doesn’t mean mostly cashless and you can still use a ‘wee bit of cash here & there’. Cashless means fully digital, fully traceable, fully controlled. I think those who support a cashless society aren’t fully aware of what they are asking for. A cashless society means:
* If you are struggling with your mortgage on a particular month, you can’t do an odd job to get you through.
* Your child can’t go & help the local farmer to earn a bit of summer cash.
* No more cash slipped into the hands of a child as a good luck charm or from their grandparent when going on holidays.
* No more money in birthday cards.
* No more piggy banks for your child to collect pocket money & to learn about the value of earning.
* No more cash for a rainy day fund or for that something special you have been putting $20 a week away for.
* No more little jobs on the side because your wages barely cover the bills or put food on the table.
* No more charity collections.
* No more selling bits & pieces from your home that you no longer want/need for a bit of cash in return.
* No more cash gifts from relatives or loved ones.
What a cashless society does guarantee:
* Banks have full control of every single penny you own.
* Every transaction you make is recorded.
* All your movements & actions are traceable.
* Access to your money can be blocked at the click of a button when/if banks need ‘clarification’ from you which will take about 3 weeks, a thousand questions answered & five thousand passwords.
* You will have no choice but to declare & be taxed on every dollar in your possession.
* The government WILL decide what you can & cannot purchase.
* If your transactions are deemed in any way questionable, by those who create the questions, your money will be frozen, ‘for your own good’.
Forget about cash being dirty. Stop being so easily led. Cash has been around for a very, very, very long time & it gives you control over how you trade with the world. It gives you independence.
If you are a customer, pay with cash. If you are a shop owner, remove those ridiculous signs that ask people to pay by card. Cash is a legal tender, it is our right to pay with cash. Banks are making it increasingly difficult to lodge cash.
Please open your eyes. Please stop believing everything you are being told. Almost every single topic in today’s world is tainted with corruption & hidden agendas.
Pay with cash & please say no to a cashless society while you still have the choice.
@AmandaH57842801 @TimelessTrvlr We have it stocked mostly in fishing marinas across the gulf south but can also order online through the website only, give it a try next time
Eric Trump just flipped the script on Chris Cuomo live on-air, leaving him shocked.
Cuomo accused President Trump of going after his political opponents the moment he took office…
Eric sounded off:
“Did we, did we try and bankrupt Biden? Did we raid Biden's home? Did we try and bankrupt Biden?”
“Did we weaponize every AG and DA against Biden? Do we do that against Hunter Biden who had a laptop from hell, pictures of cocaine, illicit drug use, prostitution?”
“Did we make up a dirty dossier? About Biden, did they try and destroy Biden's marriage? Did we make up stories that Biden had secret servers in the basement of his home communicating with the Kremlin in Russia?”
“Did we strip Biden off the ballot of multiple states? Did we take Biden off of Twitter and Instagram and Facebook and try and silence his voice so he couldn't communicate?”
“Did we put Biden in a courtroom every single day for nonsense to try and keep him off of a campaign trail to try and destroy his life?”
Well done @MrPoolQ1
@BadSportsRefs What she should have done was just say fu€k it and when #25, (sorry don’t know the name) ran past her, she should have stuck out her leg and tripped them then pounced when they were down and punched them in the head. At this point she has to take drastic measures.
@rabbitSZN2 Congratulations!!! Out of all the stupidity I have heard around this meaningless issue the presidential motorcade vehicles leaking motor oil is definitely top 5 🤡🤡🤡
@MikeLevin Just to be clear the polyurea material used is a spray on ruberized liner most commonly used in industrial applications, it’s not a paint, it’s not a sealant and is designed to withstand much harsher chemicals in continuous immersion than diluted hydrogen peroxide.
@Brettsr1@marykirst@KerryMcQ4Oregon Ground water vapor transmission was also one of my first thoughts particularly since the pool sits in what is likely a low water table area. This would likely lead to widespread failure over time. The limited info we have based on the photos seem to indicate localized failures
@Brettsr1@marykirst@KerryMcQ4Oregon I agree with everything you are saying that is why this whole situation is likely as frustrating to you as it is to me because you have a bunch of people commenting on something they have no clue about. A proper failure analysis investigation is required to determine the facts.
@marykirst@KerryMcQ4Oregon The material used was not an epoxy it was a polyurea, an industrial liner material used in wastewater treatment tanks and other applications. As an industrial coating SME for over 30 yrs I do agree that either improper surface prep or application lead to the localized failures
