Hi MiM. Am in Canadakistan™ here, or so they tell me...
Haven't seen anything about new-credit-cards.
Don't go to malls, and haven't received anything in the mail.
But if you're interpreting that push that you are seeing, as a part of the attempt to track and control everything we spend, and everywhere we go eventually : would agree that you are on the right moose-trail.
Have you seen any shops in Japan refusing cash, and only accepting credit or debit cards ?

Dr. David Martin said the US™ Social-Security™ system is dead broke, and will cease to be able to function as of 2026. Did not see his proof though, so unconfirmed in my eyes.
Yet the welfare programs never seem to run out of money... I figure the reason for that is so the welfare recipients don't burn more of the place down.
