Should we be using cash for all non online purchases ? (sh.itjust.works)

Thought of this more recently. The amount of control tech has over credit or debit cards is dangerous. Not to mention a power outage leaves you with nothing. Or if someday companies decide you can't use their credit card certain ways.

Its kind of unfeasible today, but maybe we should be using cash for every possible thing..
