I'll certainly disagree with that statement.
I like cash, cash is king.
The IRS and other organizations would love to see no cash as would big brother.

Just put the cash under your tinfoil hat.

And while driving, make sure you scrupulously follow all traffic laws!

Cash is still king for me, I bought my truck with cash.

If someone can't bring over the cash when I'm selling something I just tell them no thanks. Just sold my RZR and my boat not to long ago, neither party had a problem coming over with a wad of cash.

That sounds like a choice to live within the law, or not.

The problem with cashless society and govt oversight of every financial transaction is that once you get there, there is no return from it if you don't like it.

I read an analysis not long ago about a future cashless society paving the way to retire the $30T national debt.

Once money is eliminated, set interest rates to a negative amount. Then use the proceeds to pay down the debt.

Farfetched? I don't know.

LEO's are trained to focus on such questions, especially with an out of state driver in a rental car. Many people would be amazed at the stupid and incriminating things people say and reveal-- if asked a question by an LEO.

What I found odd in the article was the trooper elaborating on what a great driver he was. Except for following a little too closely. Which led to seizing lots of cash. Hmmm.
