Gambling ads, takeaway food ads etc, all online stuff, governments don’t want people using cash anymore. They don’t want a punter going in the bookies with £50 cash, doing £30, keeping £20 back for a takeaway later on in the evening, and when the cash is gone, it’s gone. They’d rather us rack up debt on debit/credit cards, spend what we haven’t got. Keeps the workers under control, being in debt, terrified to rock the boat at work when conditions deteriorate, can’t afford to upset management, out of work, out of a home etc. Thatcher used the same logic with ‘right to buy’, get the working man in debt and they’ll behave themselves whatever shit is thrown at them.Originally Posted by ToTaL ITK
