Maybe December? So we all take money out of banks, at least current month salary, and spend cash only. I think that is something that shouldn’t be hard to do and it would show if we, the people, have any power left to make positive changes for the future or we can just surrender and eat bugs.

Edit:

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.

        There’s a vegan month cause people want to raise awareness of veganism/animal welfare. They want to promote people to make that change.

        What awareness is there having your pockets heavy with change?

            Sounds like you need to go back to school.

            We have cultures that have been living on vegan diets for thousands of years and they still exist. Obviously not dying from lack of nutritional needs or being weaker than neighbouring groups.

            If you want to truly be in line with nature we evolved, you’d hop off line and go live in plains of North-East Africa. You don’t, you just want to repeat right-wing talking points and other insanities detached from reality.

                The Indus Valley people and their descendants disagree strongly with you there.

                Epoch Times is Falun Gong (basically Chinese Scientology) ran bullshit.

                Also that ‘UN’s gonna take over the world and make us eat bugs’ article is further evidence of your alt-right ‘globalist’ bullshit showing.

                    Mate.

                    You are neck fucking deep in this alt-right shit, why do you think sharing more insane conspiracies would improve anyone’s perception of you right now?

            I disagree strongly with your view on that.

            Still not sure why you think cash needs a month?

              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.

                That’s fine. I can get that. For many of us though we are so worried about surviving and providing for others that it would be very hard / determinental to take this stand at the loss of compound interest which can hopefully become like a future source of sustainable income in and of itself. So go and do it, but few people in a tough economy can afford to join you so maybe just make it kind of your own thing.

                If you’re doing things that mean the bank might freeze your account then you can keep it in cash. Most criminals do this for that reason.
