The controls are self contained within the generation faculty surely?
although those controls may well be computerised nowdays !!
On the money machines there maybe a problem initially but we
would soon revert to real money again ??
Imo there is a good case for doing away with all this electronic
money for the very reasons that you quote, such as giving the

lead to coercion by the government eventually ??

Hi
Taking it bit by bit.
Petrol pumps, yes could be converted back , however we do not have the conversion kits or the means of manufacture of them.
Fuel would run out before we could convert them.
Petrol stations do not have fuel storage tanks, a week at the most.
Power stations are controlled centrally to respond to demand changes.
They have back up in each one, but how would they know what to produce?
It varies hour by hour.
The main issue would be in the distribution networks.
How to get it from the power station to your house.
That is all computer controlled.
How would you get your money?
It goes into your bank or Post Office electronically.
There would be no payments to your account, so nothing to withdraw.
It would be hugely more expensive to go back to a paper system.
