You're not taking into account the huge cash only industry in this country.
Bartenders and waitresses prefer cash tips instead of putting it on the card.
Here in Vegas cash is king. You can't use a credit card to gamble.
People working flea markets prefer cash. Bands prefer cash.
And I shouldn't have to tell you about strip clubs and the girls making a lot of money...all in cash.
Escorts get cash.
I can think of a ton of things that people prefer to pay for with cash.
Guys don't want their wives to see that they blew a grand at the strip club for instance.
It was just recently here in Nevada that the cops got in trouble for pulling cars over on the highways going out of Las Vegas and TAKING people's money.
I'm talking hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash that people won at the tables.
The local news channels exposed it and people were given their money back and cops were fired over it. (and should be in jail for stealing).
