Like I said long ago.....someday will have a "Debit-Credit Card" where all that you earn would go there and all that you spend would come from there....now they are testing it.
========================================

Scientists testing for card fraud on new contactless microchip debit and credit cards have found a critical flaw that could allow a criminal to steal up to $1 million just by coming into close contact with a person.

During a presentation at the ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security in Arizona on Monday, Newcastle University scientists presented a paper that showed flaws in microchip credit and debit cards. With the new microchip cards, users can just swipe the chip for transactions up to $31, for speed and convenience.

It's been here Ponce. Now a days, most menial jobs don't even give one the option for a paper check. It's either direct deposit or a "money card", where the wages are put directly on the card.
