People actually believe that you need a bank account, for example. Good luck receiving your paycheck without one.

Unemployment is distributed in several areas in the United States (Maryland, Pennsylvania, Washington state that I know of) in the form of pre-paid debit cards (through Mastercard). There aren't many reasons that other sources of payment might follow that path. Don't expect them to be so easy to get hold of and use for much longer. They're already considered unusual and worthy of further scrutiny: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/05/23/prepaid-cards-being-used-to-launder... http://www.forbes.com/sites/jonmatonis/2012/11/07/department-of-homeland-sec... http://openchannel.nbcnews.com/_news/2011/09/01/7526748-us-aims-to-track-unt... -- The Doctor [412/724/301/703] [ZS (MED)] https://drwho.virtadpt.net/ "I am everywhere." -- -- Zero State mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/DoctrineZero ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Eugen* Leitl <a href="http://leitl.org">leitl</a> http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE
