Corruption is crime. Our ability to have a non-corrupt government depends in large part on the ability of our legal system to track the movement of money and detect corrruption. If you want to create an unstoppable superhighway to absolute government corruption, untraceable currency with perfect privacy is a wonderful way to do it.
People think privacy means "they'll never know I had that porn subscription or bought those legal recreational drugs." But the reality is more likely "they'll never know I took that bribe to deny that permit to that company's competitor."
