Keep cash alive 3 May at 2:21PM in Campaigns Corner

As we have been able to frequently read in the National press (and has been my experience), many places (be it restaurants, hotels or shops), are starting to refuse to accept cash as a method of payment. I know this is their right to do so. However, it completely alienates a large section of our population, can make situations very embarrassing and could cause danger if it were to come to medication or fuel, for instance. 

Can we, as a population, pressure the government to make it a legal responsibility for all outlets to accept cash as well as other forms of payment?

I am led to believe Germany has this law. Seems sensible to me then all payment options are covered.
