Cash is just one of those freedoms things big government hates. Through money-laundering laws, gov gets to stick its nose into ALL of our lives to treat us all as the potential criminals they know we are. The latest thing their ever-tightening regulations do is to threaten our bank accounts based on mere suspicious behavior.

Who do you think makes the cash? And you are aware it all has serial numbers and at times with things like bank robberies they use those to track it down.

Proper cash is a source of freedom. It doesn't even have serial numbers. It has weight and defined properties, but they took all that away from us quite a while ago. Until recently, the paper with numbers and faces on it still served as a fairly usable facsimile, but the powers-that-be continue to take those "privileges" away from us, the undeserved underfolk. Just wait until CBDCs are thrust upon us - that'll take care of the last vestiges of freedom that cash currency, and previously real money, had given us.

They have changed the concept of money, a natural right, into a constructed privilege.
