Israel bans use of cash for purchases larger than NIS 6,000 ($1,700)

[livingston]

Cash deals exceeding 6,000 NIS will be illegal, as part of the effort to fight against money laundering and criminal activity.​

A new law is set to take effect in Israel starting August 1 that will ban payments of large sums of money in cash and bank checks. The goal of the reform, according to a statement issued by Israel’s Tax Authority, is to fight organized crime, money laundering and tax non-compliance.


For more stories from The Media Line go to themedialine.org

Under the new law, any payment to a business above 6,000 NIS ( must be made using alternative methods, such as a digital transfer or a debit card. Trading between private citizens who are not listed as business owners will be limited to 15,000 NIS ($4,360) in cash. This is another step in Israel’s fight against the use of cash. Previously, cash up to the amount of 11,000 NIS ($3,200) could be used in business deals.


“We want the public to reduce the use of cash money,” adv. Tamar Bracha, who is in charge of executing the law on behalf of Israel’s Tax Authority, told The Media Line. “The goal is to reduce cash fluidity in the market, mainly because crime organizations tend to rely on cash. By limiting the use of it, criminal activity is much harder to carry out.”

so if I owe the .gov $2k in taxes, but do not use bank cards nor trust digital transfer, and the .gov refuses my payment, I'm free and clear, right?
After all, they refused my payment.

 

[Tisto]

But my meth dealer doesn't accept debit cards !

 

[speedkills27]

all the big time money launderers already work for the banks, this is designed to hammer the little guy

 

[Cooolone]

So...

It's only the crooks that think everyone else is ripping them off!

Same goes here, everyone's one is a crook, but the biggest crooks worry about doing what the big crooks already do!

...

What a bunch of shit! Forget religion, it's not needed when they can shut down and control singular monetary transactions... Wow!

...

Commodities, stack em up while ya can!

Jokes aside, in many places around the world goes like this:
-Seller says do you need an invoice or not?
+You say wh?
-with invoice is x% more.
.....
-Seller Says total is 2000 pesos how are you going to pay?
+You say, credit card why?
-Seller says it is 2300 pesos with cr3dit card or .... If you pay with credit card I cannot give you the negotiated discount.
.....
Why is this frequent?
Well people all over get screwed with the tax declaration and bank processing fees.
These are places where the amount of taxes worker pay are disproportional to the benefits one gets from a serious and accountable government that, unfortunately, are very rare. Sounds familiar?
For example in Norway, Sweeden, Iceland, Switzerland, Japan, etc... People do not mind paying more because government is well organized and they are pretty transparent and very civilized people from the crib and growing up.
You do not find the jokers, thugs and characters you find in the US, many european countries, around the mediterranean, south america, asia, etc... ...
In other words if you build a system to squash the working class and small businesses you will find little collaboration from those, and, since they are the pillars of healthy micro and macro economic systems, you get the picture?...
Every day we have less and less civilized people on this planet and the political class is just a reflection of what is happening to a decadent society.

 

[Saltwater60]

To fight money laundering? Ha. It’s to get tax money and shutdown whatever sales they dont want to happen. The USA will do this someday.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

It has nothing to do with money laundering and everything to do with control and revenue.

 

[prambo]

Israel is veering off into fascism - their COVID bullshit was draconian.

77 years after the end of WWII, and they're becoming just like the Nazis.

.....

I've noticed a return to higher pricing when paying by credit card, as well as lower pricing when paying with a locations SPECIFIC credit card.

ie:
Speedway:
Gas w/ their specific credit card = $4.589/gal
Gas w/o their specific credit card = $4.689/gal


And another local station:
Cash = $4.639/gal
Credit = $4.739/gal

That's why with all the gaying of the world, I'm raising gerbils.
You know the thing.

There are a few businesses right in my town that do this. Cash = no tax. The way it should be.

 

[Jmac00]

waa,waa,waaaa

The Israeli .gov feels they aren't getting their "fair" share. Besides your normal sales tax, they will make sure EVERYONE pays their "fair share"

basically, this is the head of the biggest crime family saying, " I think little johnny is skimming money off the top, I want it to stop, and I want it to stop now, make sure all our 'collectors' pay me ALL the money they collect.

 

[spat]

"All debts public and private"

My understanding is refusing to accept full payment in cash nullifies the debt.

You can say "forget religion," but the new religion is certainly not going to forget about you my friend.

That new religion rejects all supernatural religion, and demands that we all get on board with the worship of the Beast.

Oddly, that correlates very nicely with what we've seen since the Bolshevik revolution: the worship of man-made religion and a fervor for a new, utopian socialist/communist godless world order in which certain men become our gods.

Idolatry with regards to Dear Leader and the party, along worship of the same, will be mandatory and sickening.

We can see this kind of thing going back to Lenin and Stalin, Hitler and Mussolini, and Hirohito (specifically revered as a "god" by the Japanese at the time, and forced to admit he was NOT a god on national radio by MacArthur aboard a US aircraft carrier). We can see this later with Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge with Pol Pot, and so on.

We can see this idolatry in the fawning, lickspittle attitude people have towards movie stars, musicians, sportball players, artists, and so on.

The new world system is about cancelling people, not only so they cannot transact via financial instruments, but to force them out of society completely, to eradicate them, to exterminate them. The Great Leap Forward and the rest of the pogroms China has undertaken is direct evidence of what totalitarian countries are angling for. They merely followed the general pattern of the Nazis and the Soviets. In North Korea, people are required to laugh or cry at the whim of their Dear Leader.., or else!

A world order that controls you lock, stock, and barrel. Including your thought life and "private" moments.

The tech is there, and China is already using it. At least 85% of the population there is permanently tied to a smart phone, tracked everywhere they go, can conduct no business or social interaction without government approval, and so on. No smart phone, you don't exist in China. Don't go along to get along? You are cancelled, and no longer have a job, bank account, or home, nor access to your digital money. Your smart phone is locked out of the grid.

Microchips the size of a grain of rice have already been produced for this specific purpose, and there is technology that has reduced the size of these kinds of chips down much smaller than that already in testing and trials.

This is what Operation WuFlu was all about, getting people on board with complying in nation states that had not yet gone over completely to the dark side. This totalitarianism known as "cancel culture" has destroyed Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, Canada, and has deeply infected the EU and large swaths of the world. Ask the billion people in India how the roll out of digital ID and cancel culture is going, and how many are starving because they can't access the grid. All thanks to vax passports and digital ID requirements.

Next year, no one in the United States (except maybe illegal aliens) will be able to board a domestic flight without digital ID or a passport.

It may not be fully implemented everywhere yet, but it is being implemented in a large part of the world (all of India right now, for example), and it won't stop now.

Godless communism and socialism is the new religion, wherein the old supernatural religions are being swept away to usher in an era of mortal gods to rule over us and idols before which we must bow and make sacrifice.

Godless communism and socialism is anti-Christ, and always has been from the time Marx set pen to paper.

You will worship the gods chosen by society, or you will not be part of society.

Nature abhors a vacuum, and when men do not worship or honor the Creator, they will surely worship something in the created order, whether birds or beasts, men or women, the stars and other heavenly bodies... or themselves.

 

[John Stark]

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse. For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their reasonings, and their senseless hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and they exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible mankind, of birds, four-footed animals, and crawling creatures.

Therefore God gave them up to vile impurity in the lusts of their hearts, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. For they exchanged the truth of God for falsehood, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged natural relations for that which is contrary to nature, and likewise the men, too, abandoned natural relations with women and burned in their desire toward one another, males with males committing shameful acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.

And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a depraved mind, to do those things that are not proper, people having been filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, and evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy, unfeeling, and unmerciful; and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them."

Romans 1:18-32

I agree with you on many things but this isn't one of them. I don't worship the things you mention either and have no problem NOT being part of society. Society wholly sucks anyway.

That makes your mere existence a threat to their new "society" and ersatz religion.

Most of the people the last inquisition burned at the stake just wanted to live alone in the woods.

The new secular inquisition will do the same, for the same reasons.

Do you have a job? A bank account? Shop at any stores? Have credit cards? Owe on a mortgage?

Do you have views that you express to others, religious or political or otherwise? Do you read books, newspapers, or the digital equivalent? Do you like to stop for a pizza with friends, or have a nice dinner with the wife for your anniversary?

You are online right now. But in many of the nations of the earth right now you would not be.

The list of things that involve being part of society is very long. You are engaged in it, even if at a minimal level. It is unavoidable, and it is precisely why I loathe cancel culture.

You may try to not participate in society, but even that is unacceptable in many regimes that run very large nations right now.

Gun owner? No banking for you! Don't agree with the queer and transfreak agenda? No job for you! Don't like the latest tax increases and you vocal about it? Have yourself a nice IRS audit and a sham hearing in front of a corrupt judge, and pay your penalties serf! Don't like the new zoning law? No house for you!

All of us are inextricably intertwined with the society around us, no matter how we attempt to minimize that exposure. And the government is in your business even if they don't have a particular reason to crush you at the moment.

You can NOT even be 100% politically or religiously correct according to some jackwagon out there that runs some office or department in either the government or corporate world (not a lot of distinction between these now anyways). There is not even a way to be 100% politically correct without being a total bootlicker, and even then "examples" sometimes have to be made to keep everyone else in line. It has been a tool of regimes since time immemorial to define and then redefine what is acceptable and what is not when the whim or fancy or circumstances of the elites demanded. Lenin did this with his notion of Terror, using it as tool to keep the people off balance and never quite knowing what could trip them up.

The Founders of this nation, elite and common man alike, attempted to give all of as a People at least some means to check a tyrannical government or society from stripping our Rights from us. The attempt has failed, because the People have let it fail.

They might even round people up and pit them in labor camps or reservations.
