Firstly its a fucktonne of cahs sloshing around being laundered, which has a bunch of nasty petty crime sideffects. but also the literal tonnes of toxic waste that keeps on popping up everywhere.

Immediately think to yourself, in a wealthy society, this institutionalizes third party oversight of individual money. Who benefits from that today? Now, who might be pushing this kind of legislation ?
This is not the path forward in a free society.
