What’s wild is how much easier cash is to not report and commit tax evasion.
I’m cool tipping in cash knowing the server isn’t reporting it all. I’m also cool with street taco vendors not reporting it too. I think the majority of people are, at least where I’m from.
But one of the things I learned about doing business is always make it easy for people to pay. It doesn’t matter the means, but if you want more sales make it easy for the customer to pay you. Whether it’s cash, card, or venmo. If you make it tough or restrict the method, you’ll lose sales
that’s exactly why I always try to tip with cash. when I pay in cash for food, I have no issue if the business wants to pocket it and keep a little extra something for themselves that uncle sam can’t touch. taxes are important, but workers can have a little personal gain, as a treat. plus, credit companies don’t need to get their beaks wet everytime I buy something.

the weirdest thing I see regularly is “no cash” signs for vendors. I understand some places don’t want to deal with giving change, or holding large amounts of cash at outdoor events, or making lines go quicker, etc. it’s just strange that the most concrete form of regulated currency we have is turned down so often now.
