Louisiana Bans Cash For Second Hand Sales

liberalsarecool:

In a new law that could put every trading post, Goodwill, flea market, garage sale and Craigslist merchant in the state of Louisiana out of business, a bipartisan group of elected representatives has opted to ban all cash payments for the buying and selling of used goods.

Though House Bill 195 was intended to make it easier to track the sales of stolen goods by giving police a paper trail to follow, the unintended consequences could be much more widespread. Namely, the law requires second-hand sales be made paid for with credit cards, paper checks, electronic transfer or money orders. Cash is prohibited.

Well done, Bobby Jindal. Make sure that Red State is more involved in people’s personal lives. Classic Republican hypocrisy. Create the “big government” police state, then complain about it.

I guess the “This note is legal tender for all debts, public and private” printed on all our money is not good enough. The Banks win another battle in their war to own us.
