The greatest effect would be on druggies, drug dealers, illegal workers, cash under the table, strippers. There would be no more bypassing the system which would be good for the government but can you imagine the chaos that would come because of this.

Thankyou for those comments. I really think something is going to happen to make cash obsolete. Imagine what would happen.

In my dream, I just got paid. I had in my hand a stack of cash. I was going to put in the bank - I think. When I looked, there was a blank piece of paper in my hand but I could see some traces of ink. I looked at the next dollar, blank, the next was fading, all the ink on the money was fading away in my hand leaving just blank pieces of paper. I started freaking out because I figured the person who gave it to me must have given me counterfeit money.
When I woke up, I thought it could mean a few things. The end of paper currency. The continuing downward spiral of the economy. Most importantly, not to rely on finances because of what's ahead.

hi iamnot,i dont think there will ever be a cashless system,and i also think that u dont see the big picture.You start by assosiating druggies and illegal workers with cash under the table.its that under the table money that is supporting funds for covert ops,ileagal wars and propaganda.a cashless system would destroy this and nasa would probably change to some other fancy name.im not saying you are wrong all im saying is that if and when it b ecomes a cashless society we will all be R.F.I.D and basically mindless robotic humans no thoughts are for us only much like orwells 1984..
