I wonder what the reaction would be if someone incurred a debt for which the merchant only accepted credit payment (a car repair, say) and when it came time to pay up offered the amount owned in "legal tender" (i.e. cash) stating that he doesn't believe in, and has no credit cards of any kind.

Great point.....and one they won’t be able to gloss over

An example....Gillette Stadium in Foxboro (Robert Kraft specifically) got so much pushback from elder advocates and patrons sans smartphone apps or CC.......they had to put in cash to Visa card kiosks in the stadium. Which begs the question, did Kraft use a CC, phone app or cash when he got caught at the massage parlor in Jupiter a few years back! And what if they were cashless!
