Because polymers are more durable, which (((they))) need for installing the RFID chips which will then be scanned by new cashier machines, while ATMs will already have in-built scanners, and bank tellers will be using cash drawers that do the same thing, so that how an individual spends his money can be tracked by location, time, and things purchased.

How very draconian.

Haha this would be good to do in the US. All the cash the CIA niggers sent to the taliban would be irredeemable, same with all the drug cash cartels have

We have crap plastic polymer money in Canada and it's shit.

The money literally cracks, like any other old plastic.

It is fair to say it is quite fragile.

It is also much harder to count.

Paper money is simply better.

That's why you get the plastic money now.

Because fuck you, that's why.
