Lilly Gaddis is very conservative and generally has a good video. I this video she talks about the ever increasing surveillance state.

  While I agree that surveillance is increasing, I did not go far into the video when I discovered it was just another anti-Trump rant.  I didn't stey long enough to note
   whether the incursions bny the left were enumerated.
   
   Yes, with the rise in advanced technology, snooping has increased. ..But surely not as egregious as the numerous violations launched by the left.

  I doubt we can halt it's spread, but we can try.  For instance, I use my credit card as little as possible, paying cash where feasible..and yes, most will accept cash.

  I see some businesses want credit card only purchases. That makes me wonder why they are  willing to give up an added fee, and accept a charge rather than
    accept cash!  ..Only reason I can see, is that they don't even trust their employees ! ...And I don't want to do business with such a firm.

  The more we just 'slide a  card', the more we are bowing to this " Brave New World".. (book by Aldous huxley; author of the book... "1984")

My guess would be to discourage anyone from robbing them. IF it's made clean no cash is on hand it would or at least should discourage anyone coming in to rob the store.
