Honestly, the older I get, the more tempted I am to attach a safe to a corner of my house, close my bank accounts, and just store cash in the safe.
That's what civil asset forfeiture is for. That's drug money you got there you see. (Never mind that if word gets out you will get robbed.)

It's shit like this that makes me want Bitcoin or one of the alternatives to succeed. I don't care if it ends up being worth $10 or $50K, as long as many people use it. The banking system is rotten to the core.
