*Any* transaction involving money most definitely SHOULD be posted
on-line and as close to real-time as is technologically possible and
practicable to implement nationwide; beginning in the United States,
then, of course, with the whole free world eventually following suit.
Well, if you want to eliminate the USA as a superpower, this would do
it.

Not to worry. The USA will eventually be transfigured into
the USE, i.e., the United States of Earth, the whole Earth
under the rubric umbrella of the vestiges in the world who
have been tried by the Fire. That's what we are headed for...
The result would be a huge increase in barter, thus avoiding money,
and the rise of private scrip instead of US currency. And, of course,
people would have purchases recorded dishonestly. Attempting to enforce
compliance with laws to ban scrip, barter, and false recording would
cost far more than the tax base of the country can possibly support,
leaving the country much weaker in the face of global enemies.
No need for fearmongering. The divine plan is being executed
with exquisite precision. Thus the cashless society, and the
global village, is coming soon to a theatre of serene combat
near you. It's a good thing. Nothing to fear but fear itself.
You should read _Why Things Bite Back: The Revenge of Unintended
Consequences_.
No thanks. I'm trying to quit. ;-D
From that point, I wholeheartedly welcome complete transparency of
*all* civilian transactions involving money, bar none! And I look
forward to the federal government implementing the totally cashless
society, and the whole free world following our lead across-the-board.
I admit that this could solve many problems, including theft and robbery
and such. What they oughta do is implant a RFID chip in everybody in
some convenient place -- say, the right hand, or if you don't have a
right hand maybe on the forehead. And if you don't have the chip, then
you can't buy or sell anything, that way enforcing the rules about
logging all transactions.
The Gods are not mocked. The mark is as Cain was marked.
There's no reason to go around trying to rationalize the
fundamentalists' misunderstandings (of the scriptures)
which are born of the worldly's fear of worldly things.
Enjoy Life! (I do it all the time)
