Additional controls would need to be put in place to prevent the distribution of street drugs. Silly me, of course they would! The pharma mafia would demand it. They don't want to lose that part of market share.
Someone sketched our universe as a slightly flattened sphere with nothing else around it. If that is the case then I am tempted to ask; why can't there be other universes outside of ours and if not, why not? That supposition brings to mind a single molecule in the middle of a void, why would there be no other? Who am I to say, as a speck on a rock circling a star that is part of a galaxy, part of a single component called the Milky Way that is a component of a universe?
To accept a fully cash free society you have to acknowledge a totalitarian government as completely free of wrong doing or accept your slavery as law. There may be another way around this, short of barter, but I haven't considered it, yet. Without cash, reconstruction of credit or value in society can't be accomplished.
Even Microsoft with their insistence we adapt to their new operating system has met with incredible resistance and it has taken two operating systems for them to come to terms, they realize who keeps them in business. The British discovered they weren't going to be able to keep the 'Colonies' as their cash cow when the people rebelled.
If this is really something to be concerned about, I don't think we will be able to bring a viable solution to the table short of non-compliance.
Gerund the Destroyer? Weren't you doing a FPS last year?
All new leaders flap their wings. Let's see him fly before we shoot him down. Besides, what if he pulls it off?

Germany did that in 1933 but they weren't after 'terrorists'. God help you if you were a Jew, though.

Stupid means unable to learn. Ignorant means uneducated.

The only problem I see with your consideration is that the people who will make the decision won't have a concern for those who 'Have Not'.
