[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC just loved ruining business. The cost, hassle and safety of having cash is not worth it. [b]Why can't I run my small business as I see fit.[/b] If I lose out on some cash business, great! That's my problem. [/quote]

Because you operate your business within a framework of laws and regulations, which you and your business benefit from.

Other things you have to do: comply with tax laws, comply with wage and hour laws, comply with anti-discrimination laws.[/quote]

And to add, most people whining on here aren't small business owners in DC so this doesn't impact them at all. But it does help "the poors" and we know how DCUM feels about them.[/quote]
Most of the businesses that initially opted out of cash payments were not businesses frequented by people who were unbanked. No one is scratching together a few bucks here and there to get an $18 salad at Sweetgreen and Sweetgreen is really the exception. Because we are really just talking about high end bars and restaurants that stay open late the Council is now going to exempt from this law anyway. The idea that without this law the corner store would refuse cash is ridiculous. However, I can see good reason why a liquor store would not want to accept cash and you should too.[/quote]
