I sympathize with your point of view and kinda share it, and enjoy cash myself very much, but I'm afraid "fairness" doesn't really exist, therefore it's a bit pointless to call for it. The rules of "the game" are such and such, either you play by rules, or try to get more money to switch to more comfortable rules.

What I don't understand though is why are "they" doing it, tightening things up for laypeople. It's not like most people in Europe are rampant criminals and money launderers, or even rich. Real criminals use different multiple schemes too. Why does government there want more control, exactly? What they don't see yet, but want to see that bad? I don't get what's the point, but maybe I'm just not very bright.
