Cashless means the government could lock people out of their accounts. They wouldn't be able to get a paycheck or buy food. But it's coming. The Bible talks about it:

(Revelation 13:16-17 NIV) He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, {17} so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
