Funny how Sovvies want us to accept their coupons but only want to be paid in gold themselves.
Wouldn’t that be fantastic. Make up my own mumbo jumbo Sovcit food stamps and then use them to buy their stuff.
They either have to admit it’s bollocks or accept the stamps and effectively give me their stuff for nothing.
Walk up to the counter with a 1099a and be like “here you go bud, it’s all there in the strawman account. Later.” and then walk out with what you took.
Ah, but you see, they’re not a corporation, therefore they can’t access the mumbo jumbo account.
But surely my straw man can pay his straw man and then he can draw on it when needed?
I wonder what magic form they’ll have to use for bankruptcy.
I mean. You can just do that can’t you? It’s your business and you set the prices.
We will see this in a federal court case before too long. In the US cash is legal tender for transactions, but plenty of businesses are moving to card-only. This is kinda legal gray area now, but when I still owned businesses it was quite illegal. I consulted my business attorney about going to card-only because of too many hold-up attempts. That was a complete non-starter.
Yes, I too like to be paid in sliver.
Shoot, I’ve got you covered! Not sure what I’m buying, but it sounds like a bargain!
My recollection is that you only are required to take cash for the payment of a debt (so your mortgage company can’t demand to be paid in bushels of corn). So theoretically this person could create a business that doesn’t take USD but as @some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org said, almost no one carries small bits of gold and silver (or certificates of the same) with them.
