Have you considered that some people don’t have their life all in order? May have a drug issue?
Yes, i have also considered that i am vegan and stores can still sell meat. Nonissue. Or do you also argue against and ID System?
The issue is that most arrive in the EU without an EU bank account.
When i go to the US i can pay with my german mastercard in every store everywhere.
This is an issue for EU countries to get over, not me.
Cash and crypto have more bad than good sides.
So, you're saying it's great to be discriminated against?!
I would go about this the other way: Being vegan is a societal good (because it means you're likelier to stay healthy; it means less resource usage; yadda). Hence, society/the state should make it as easy as possible to be vegan. A few years ago, when mainstream stores were few vegan-friendly besides produce, being a vegan was a pain though. Now, however, you have non-vegans pick up oat milk at Aldi.
Enabling people to not be criminal is a societal good as well.
No. I see legitimate reasons for a country to know its inhabitants. I do object to the fact that I need to present my ID when it's not really necessary, like at a hotel though.
I realize you're not a refugee.
Crypto is, by and large, bullshit. But what does it have to do with this discussion?
