What I am saying is--I don't think that the limitations on cash in the US are for government-control. Here in Korea... there is a lot of control. If they could control you that way.. I think they would... and no one would complain.However, on the other hand, in Korea there doesn't seem to be a problem if you go into a bank and deposit cash money into an account which is not your own. That is the type of circumstance which started this thread, here (in Bank of America) you can't.
I think the cashlessness in the states is a result of a 'free' market. That is, free for major corporations to manipulate to their own advantage, and to the disadvantage of the common person.
The old arguments against 'government control' from the right, and to 'eat the rich' from the left are both shortsighted, IMO. The government doesn't control ~anything~...and the class war already happened... but we lost. Starbucks won. Chevron won. Merck won. Happy birthday to us.
