It appears NJ has mandated that most stores accept cash:

It appears NJ and MA are the first two states with statewide bans on cashless stores. (There are many cities that have local laws prohibiting cashless stores).

I judge each issue on its own merits. I ignore left or right and make my own judgement call
I dont agree with the WH on this

Whoa, what a Luddite.

I have lived in Florida for a little over a year now and I still have not seen anyone write a check in the grocery store.

A young teen did some chores for us and as part of his pay I included a two dollar bill.

He looked at it oddly and asked "Is that Canadian?"

Priceless.

$100,000 Bill - Woodrow Wilson

Does 1913 ring a bell?

Woodrow Wilson: I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country.

----------------------------------------------

So let's reward Woodrow by placing his image on a $100,000 bill.

No other bill is higher in denomination.

He deserves it.

Without good ole Woodrow, where would we be now?

One advantage of cash, is I don't end up with a triple overcharge on my credit card. $5.76 x 3 for one sandwich. I'm not going to even bother to fix it. But still annoying.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Woodrow Wilso was not President at the end of his term
Duties should have been handed over to the VP
instead Edith became the acting President
I also have issues with Wilsons racist views
He praised "Birth of a Nation" which glorified the KKK
Disgusting
Right up there with Andrew Jackson and his disgusting views on Indians
