I think we should do away with cash, frankly. I don't even want to know how much money it costs the government to print and circulate all that money! We should at least do away with the penny - it's a ridiculous denomination.

I live in a mostly mom and pop area and they're cash only, which is annoying since I rarely have more than $40ish cash on me at anytime.

The only problem with that is I would think that would make their stores attractive to robbers if they have that much cash on hand? Which is, of course, another reason to do away with cash completely. If stores didn't have cash, what would there be to rob? Nothing... Sure, a computer hacker could steal your pin number theoretically. But have you ever heard of someone getting shot during an armed computer hacking?
Jam it back in, in the dark.
