Would lead to a huge clandestine underground econonomy based on cash/barter.

That was my first thought. I would buy a bar and not accept checks or credit cards....cash only.

The money would never see a bank.

cash only.

I'll take that back...I would let trusted customers run a tab and then pay that tab with goods or services (a barter system). Tires, food, gold, ammo....sex.....all could be negotiated, acceptable forms of payment that are not subject to the transaction tax.

Where is it written in stone that the Gubmint gets a piece of everything you do? What entitles the gubmint to this largesse?
