Only in the last two years. There are a couple of places around here that still allow it, but most have switched over to “pay before.” This, of course, also incentivizes people to stop using cash in order to force a fully digital currency down our throats.

Not just that, it makes gas stations more bold with price gouging. With pay-after-filling pumps people could just drive the fuck away if prices were unreasonable. Now that everyone physically has to pay first they just set the price to whatever the fuck they want. Oy vey, you don't want to pay $4.50 while the surrounding region is only $3? Sorry goy, guess you're not driving anywhere.
