>you've been forced to have a bank account in most western countries for a while now. You have, many haven't. There's plenty of people who pay their rent in cash and work in a business that pays them in cash (strippers, some farm laborers, etc). Surviving in the US with cash only would take away a lot of options for many people but at the same time, it's completely possible. IMO we need more ways to bypass banks, including the central bank, not more of them.
