Belgium plans to do away with paper cheques. Apparently no one is fighting this. The eagerness to do away with paper cheques can only be attributed to addiction to convenience without regard to the consequences.
Once paper cheques are gone, there will be no way to survive without banks. Even if you walk away from your job and go on social aid, the social aid has no way to reach you without a bank account. Paper cheques are the sole means having personal autonomy from banks.
Some pensioners still receive their pension payment as a paper cheque, which they can cash without having a bank account. Belgium is taking this away.
Switzerland, previous Germany.
I’m pretty sure you need a bank account to get any salary in most of Europe already.
Not if cheques are possible. France likely still has paper cheques, so people there have autonomy. They can get a salary without a bank account.
If I understand you correctly, in Switzerland and Germany you have already lost your human right to autonomy. You must lick the boots of a bank. Correct me if I’m wrong.
