RE: Border Agents Seize $41,000 From Texas Nurse Who Had Plans To Open Medical Clinic In Nigeria
Again, people are being shtupid.
Haven't you all seen the writing on the wall?
Haven't you all seen the capital flight laws being put in place?
Having cash is as normal as can be,
unless you are middle class and have all on your bank cards.
A third of americans are un-banked. Meaning, they only have cash.
The laws are in place to protect against capital flight.
The laws are in place as a cash grab.
It has nothing to do with "drug money".
If we were actually looking for that, then we would have to go to Citi and Chase. To launder that much money, you can only use the biggest banks.
So, to all people out there.
You do not live in a free nation, where you can hold large amounts of money.
Trying to move your money is dangerous, and in most cases, illegal.
Interesting that you mention a third of Americans are un-banked. That's encouraging. I didn't know it was that high. People who are un-banked are unlikely to have large debts, which is a good thing. Dealing in cash, person to person, is also a good thing.
