...and all hell will break loose when it happens. All I can say, is the government better have some contingency plans, because there will be a mass of angry people wanting their money. The last person I would want to be is a banker or a politician.
Ugh, isn't it sickening that we're even having this conversation ?!

Yes, here in Canada if you don't pay your property taxes, you'll eventually get a letter from whatever municipality you're living in stating that you now have 30 days to vacate the premises (even if your home is fully paid for) because they now own it and will put it up for sale, unless you pay up your arrears before that date.
But the arrears accumulate for 2-4 years before they finally take action against you.
None of us outright own our land (paid for or not)... the countries we live in do.
We're just paying the SOB's rent for the privilege of living on it.
Pfft.

This is ridiculous! It is nearly impossible to not use a bank. Even just to send checks to pay bills. I would not even know where to drive the cash to. They have us bent over a barrel. What options do we have? Perhaps an offshore account?

After your direct deposit hits your account you would withdraw as much as possible and keep in cash. I know it is not a great solution but if your that worried about it then it becomes and option.
