Don't expect any support from government.  They would love to see cash
disappear.  The only way to stop this, is for everyone to pay cash. 
Both you and I know that that's very unlikely to happen.  The utility I
work for stopped taking cash a year or so ago. 
They don't want any customers to come into the offices, each walk in
customer costs them $1.50 or so.  IMO, any company that doesn't take
cash, makes waaayyyy too much money.
