It's not just the alarmist tone or the jittery pacing that makes this listicle unworthy of broad attention, it's the rhetorical errors as well. The author attributes this change to a war on cash rather than a global trend in response to common pressures and doesn't provide any strong evidence that governments themselves are driving these forces. The selected links contain plenty of anecdotes but few balanced studies or statistics about why these changes are happening. There's an interesting element of truth here: the world is moving to new systems of payment and cash use is declining, but the author is trying to frame this as dangerous without deriving a strong argument and is not clearly framing the status of cash. 1 stars for an interesting premise and a weak execution. |
