You must describe, in detail, every purchase you want to make, to a 3rd party. You cannot make that purchase until that 3rd party gives permission. It will then sell your transaction history to countless other private and government entities, for purposes unknown to you.

That is cashlessness.

There's never been a better time to be the 3rd party!

In detail? The only detail is amount and company/location. If anything moving to digital receipts would help us track purchases so much better...
