Bought a used combine for $18,000. No problem getting cash from the bank, no problem customer taking the stack of hundreds. I wish, instead though, I could have used my phone to transfer to the account he would have on his phone. Hate carrying cash.

It’s time for this farce to end.

Or so the Germans would have us believe.

This thread or the conspiracies?

I've never had to accept a bank check, so I don't know, but why didn't the dealer call the issuing bank to confirm the funds? Thats a big oops.

For the conspiracy folks I have a scary question for you: Is it sinister and devious behavior or just complete incompetence and ineptitude? My proof of the later: the DMV. (mic drop and walk away)

In all seriousness, Indiana revamped its DMV 10-15 years ago (maybe longer) and it's really fast and efficient now. Same people work there. They just changed the processes and trained the people better. Longest I've been in there in the past 15 years is about 15-20 minutes and that was taking a written test because I let my license expire. I can't say enough good things about it. In the past, it was horrible, so I can compare then and now. Fantastic.

Petition your lawmakers to have your DMV do a study of Indiana's system.

I use them. They let me know when I’m reaching the edge of the earth.

That's always good to know.

You might have to walk 20 days. Maybe 40!

“- Mr. Rate: That's how a conspiracy works. Them boys on the Grassy Knoll they were dead within three hours, buried in the damned desert, unmarked graves out past Terlingua.
- Nick Memphis: You know this for a fact?
- Mr. Rate: Still got the shovel.”

Never buy your quail from the Mustang Ranch . I have been told it smells like a combination of beaver fur and fish .
Try to hunt your own .

Funny fact: The US Government owned the 'ranch', and ran it, it for a few years after seizing it for tax evasion.

But no more. The most famous thing in the area now is Tesla's gigantic Nevada battery plant.

There are indeed many cases where somebody has had money seized just because you have it, claiming that it was taken by illegal means. Somehow they are able to keep it even without charging you with a crime. There's an alleged loophole in the 5th Amendment
which allows it. https://www.justice.gov/criminal-afmls/file/794696/download

Alleged loophole, just like your money is alleged to have been gained by unlawful means!

Plain and simple it’s theft by the police and any person who claims to be an American that supports the current practice that has been used to take money from law obeying citizens should be ashamed of themselves. A 70 year

At one point I thought my husband was bull headed and overstating the extent of this but after hearing some first hand accounts and witnessing the devastation on an aquaitences life and the end result of it ending in suicide I no longer take it lightly.

First, there is no law against carrying large sums of cash, the 10k threshold is the reporting amount when bringing cash into the country or receiving a cash payment.

The confiscation of cash is very rare and there has to be a reason behind it as in connected to illicit activity and with that the amount doesn't matter.
If you are arrested any property with you is inventoried and there is no guarantee you will receive everything back if it can be connected to a crime etc., even if you didn't commit it.

Lastly there is no RFID "chips" in the US currency, and even if there were, law enforcement, especially local and state, would not have the equipment to monitor it.

You should do some research into how many people that have been searched at roadside and had money taken with not even the slightest hint of a crime.
It happens much more than most realise and even if it only happens once it in my opinion makes

You would be wrong in thinking it’s very rare! Its much more common than you think and happens with much lower amounts than most here are talking about. The fact that it happens at all to any one who is never charged with a crime and costs in many cases as much or more than the amount taken to force the return of your money makes it wrong in so many ways.

The person I knew that was victimized by the process was financially ruined, never broke a law, not even the alleged speeding he was pulled over for. He didn’t even get a ticket or a written warning for his troubles just the seizure of his money and a hole list of headaches trying to get it back. They even at one point offered to give him some of it back if he signed some type of agreement. Now if it wasnt money from crime and they were willing to give some of it back, charged no crimes why wasn’t he entitled to ALL of his money? Better yet why was it taken in the first place?

The hole process and s flawed and if it happens to just one person there is no justifying it in any way!
