I have a few errands to run yesterday and when I went to buy feed I couldn't find my credit card. I remember where I used it last and retraced the steps in my mind, called the business thinking I might have left it in the machine (because I am avoiding tap) and they said NOPE. I thought I would check out my account online to see if anyone had picked it up and maybe started tapping their hearts out but thankfully not. I notice a toggle in the site that said "turn card off". I don't ever remember seeing something like that so I toggled it off and sure enough the access to my card was not available. I can tell you how thrilled I was that now I had the time to retrace my steps to ensure I didn't drop the card in my travels before calling and cancelling and my "thrilled" turned to concern because if it's that easy for me to turn off access to my credit cards, it is also that easy for someone else. WELCOME to digital ID and CBDC my friends disguised as safety.
I did find my card or rather got a call from the last business I attended, it had dropped on the floor when I was at the till. We aren't far off the "you can't buy or sell without the mark". I am going to stockpile.
Have a lovely weekend all, going to check out the news at the Ostrich farm now.

Some negotiations are easy; others are destined to fail given intractable issues, including the personalities of negotiators, their values, style, character, and other difficult issues. Was it ordained that a negotiation between Donald Trump and Mark Carney would be successful?
In my 35 years as a part-time representative of hockey players, which included negotiating their contracts, one can imagine the different personalities and styles of the team representatives. Cliff Fletcher of the Calgary Flames and Serge Savard of the Montreal Canadiens were my favourite GMs — classy, trustworthy, smart, successful, and with a record of treating their employees well.
But they presented a problem as their best offers came first — they both wanted to be seen as fair-minded. Adjusting to the counterparty, I learned to discuss the length of term, dollars, and other issues with my clients so as to negotiate prior to their offers.

I can relate to the writer of article as I have seen it first hand regarding what people believe and will always believe as too much for them to handle that the Government is the enemy. Comments not great.
