People who think this is the actual reason small/local businesses and mobile businesses like food trucks prefer cash-only in order to evade faxes are morons. Transaction fees for credt and debit cards add up real fucking fast, and eat a large chunk of a business profit margins when the transaction is bleow a certain threshold. That’s why most small places 20 years ago would tell you that any purchase made using plastic that was less than $5-10 would incur an extra charge for processing.
Today, if you go into say a grocery store and only pick up like $5 in snacks and pay with a card instead of cash, that store is actually losing more money because of the transaction fee they pay to the endorsing institution. The grocery store I work at, every year for just the month of November, we pay out $65-75,000 in transaction fees alone.

Yea because everyone else is so pure and never pirated a game/movie/serie or broke the law in any other way. And of course the (big) companies who accep credit cards and co all pay their taxes fully and are definetly not doing everything to avoid taxes too.
Shame on all these small vendors and independent businesses who are trying to make ends meet. They are so evil.

Well… yeah…

More than happy to help!
The moment you realize you’ve been unknowingly part of the business plan.
Small-time vendors always get cash from me explicitly for this reason. The people’s tax break.
What they are avoiding is credit card processing fees, not taxes.

When everything goes digital and the web is down you’ll be crying for cash
Evading taxes is a civil duty.
Zoomer moment
correct. only big business should be doing the tax dodging, that is fine and should be encouraged as always.
the plebs better pay their bills. every single cent.
Tell me you don’t know about fees, especially big as fuck from payment processers like Visa and MasterCard without telling me that
Evading Tax is fine, but I draw the line at using a meme incorrectly.
Every small business owner just looked away nervously after seeing this.
