A promoter of using #cash money has an article about that this last April as one of many reasons:

The Conversation

@gopal @pluralistic @karlauerbach yeah i have learned to ignore all the lying self-serving pieces from "The Conversation" since none of them are independent at all. None. It’s pretend academic BS.

Some of it may be legit, but the entire concept of β€œThe Conversation" is BS.

@hrbrmstr

Only one I RSS there. I might of in the past read some other post on that site as part of a past discussion group but it would of been a one off kind of thing. His blog on there is kinda independent in the fact that "Power of Cash" book took up time to write up the book and it is a side project he really just wanted to take up, last I knew he got a de minus amount of money from the book sales but promoting cash use; which really don't have a lot of money in it (ironically). 1/more
