Coronal Hole Activity on 31 July-1 Aug, 2019
Several coronal holes (CH) are currently spread across the visible solar disk. Analysis indicates that the isolated, negative polarity CH identified as CH45- will likely connect with Earth later on Wednesday, 31 July, 2019 and result in unsettled to active levels of geomagnetic response. The CH high speed stream (HSS) associated enhancements in the solar wind are expected to continue into Thursday, 1 August, 2019. Late in the week, connections with the positive polarity CH HSS (CH47+ and CH48+) are expected and some elevated levels of geomagnetic response are likely. Keep checking our SWPC web page for the latest information and forecasts regarding these features.
There is an elevated chance of power outages and electronics experiencing errors during these events. And lovely aurora too.

Not if getting paid means a liability to them, no.

It won't be a liability unless it pushes them into the next tax bracket. You'll still need money to buy stuff.

Be consistent, please.
The interest of the retailer/grocer will be to have debt, not profit, because any profit they need to keep in the banks is a liability. Even more, if they chose to store the money under the mattress (instead of bank accounts), their value are gonna degrade by the day.
Consequence: competition and whatnot, they will end in paying me, the consumer, to take their merchandise off them.
Guess what? You are gonna buy from those who offer you less money to take the their stuff. Otherwise, your day to day life will push you into the next tax bracket.

No, the government will still demand everyone pay taxes in the currency, pension funds need to use it to by bonds, etc. So people will still need to get the currency to settle credits/debts. Stop thinking this system will make sense, it doesn't.
It will probably be like it already is when working for the government, at the end of every quarter people will hope to spend as much as possible to blow the budget so then they have more money next budget.

Why do you ask me something you don't do yourself? (grin)
