Guarantee domestic tranquility, providing for the common defense, and promoting general welfare are only a few of the government's lofty responsibilities.
FREMONT, CA: As of September 2020, 126 million Americans had one American subscription video-on-demand OTT memberships, according to one research. That's a rise of 8 million Prime members since March 2020, when the pandemic prompted people to spend more time at home. In 2020, most Americans began shopping, paying bills, and performing other aspects of their lives online; the majority, but not all.
[vendor_logo_first]What about those who have not increased their online engagement in the last 12 months? What about those who are entirely offline? Big retailers have the financial means to concentrate their resources on the related majority. State, on the other hand, must represent all people. Guarantee domestic tranquility, providing for the common defense, and promoting general welfare are only a few of the government's lofty responsibilities. To bring the last one up to date, it means ensuring that people receive unemployment benefits and have access to other aspects of the social safety net.
Those without traditional bank accounts are another category with whom the government may have trouble communicating. While benefits cards can bind unbanked people to government services, what about those, who need to do business with the government? Property taxes are a big source of income for local governments across much of the country—so important, in reality, that revenue authorities couldn't afford to let the pandemic derail their attempts to raise them. How will they be able to fulfill their basic responsibilities to citizens, such as filling potholes, staffing emergency services, and cleaning up trash?
Last year, as with so many other utilities, attempts to digitize revenue collection went into overdrive, with many existing plans being accelerated. However, providing online payment options does not assist taxpayers who choose to pay in cash. According to the central banking system, 22 percent of American households have unbanked or underbanked individuals. Although many come from immigrant communities and are low-income, their reasons for rejecting conventional banking institutions are as diverse as the regions of the country they live in and their personal backgrounds. Besides, while service counters at government buildings are typically set up to accept cash payments, COVID-19 reduced these facilities' availability.
