Even if the government were inclined to act like the Gestapo many people on this thread seem to fear, they don't have the time or the resources to follow up on every cash purchase.
Not right now. But believe me, if history teaches one thing, it's that a government that is granted an arbitrary and excessive temporary power, will never give back that arbitrary and excessive power, and will use that arbitrary and excessive power in ways you never imagined. It's called: Unintended Consequences.

Two questions:
1)Have you heard we are at war?
2)Have you heard of sunset provisions for statutes?

We are? Then we're back to square one in this thread: link me to our Declaration Of War, and I'll believe it.

Sneak & Peek (among a few others) is not subject to the sunset clause...refreshing isn't it?
