Whole segments of this country would collapse without cash; here in NJ, as wealthy whites tout the advantages of a cashless society, the staggering illegal population lives by cash and nothing else. These people don’t even officially exist; they will never go to plastic. They are paid in, and shop in Wal-Mart with, strictly cash.
Whole neighborhoods haven’t seen a W-2 in decades.
Exceptions are made for illegals for a variety of laws to include no insurance on vehicles...I am sure a law of some sort would be passed to make them exempt from any law restricting cash.
