Bank CEO comes out in favor of tracking gun purchases on credit cards

So you charged an amount at a gun store? So what?

It's Amalgamated Bank who's mission statement is,

"Empowering organizations and individuals to advance positive social change"

It's the bank of Democrats and unions.

By-the-by, I was not being snarky about it being the bank of Democrats and Unions. They say so themselves on their web page's About Us.
The bank appears to have 3 locations in NYC, one in DC and one in San Fransico though it's hard to find a definitive list.

Cash and checks still work in this area. Pooey on the banks and their credit cards.

I noticed a large purchase on my card once upon a time from a florist. After scratching my head awhile I figured out it was the same amount I had paid for my latest firearm purchase. Come to find out he and his wife shared a merchant account which they had registered in the flower shops name as it was their first business.

Dont think for a second that they aren't working overitme to eliminate cash. Look at how many businesses refused to accept it during COVID for "health" reasons. India actually DID eliminate it, briefly- but they jumped the gun on the technology and had to bring it back.

Big business hates cash because it costs them to keep it, pay someone to handle it, and deposit it. Banks hate it for the same reason. Government hates it because they can't track, tax, seize, or freeze it.

Financial freedom is anethma to the goals of the NWO, and cash IS freedom- so it must be destroyed.

I buy almost all of the non-serialized firearm parts and doodads and a lot of scopes and such from Primary Arms here in Houston. I also buy a lot of serialized AR lowers and some complete firearms from them and get quite a few transfers from other gun shops sent to them. They don't operate a big storefront but have a will call office with some returned items and factory 2nd scopes you can buy. They have some computers in there where you can place online orders and then pick them up or simply come in to pick up online orders you already placed.

They quit accepting cash for any transactions over 2 years ago, I found out recently when trying to pick up a transfer and pay cash for it. I am seeing a few other local stores, mostly restaurants, doing the same thing. I truly believe in 20 years, maybe 10, you will be hard pressed to find anywhere that takes cash.

If the data containing your credit card purchase history has any value to anyone, I think it is safe to assume that data is collected and sold.

Hopefully, if we all do our part (and we DO have a part to do in NOT using their goods and services if we can avoid them), they'll Get Woke, Go Broke like so many others.
