I don't know how it worked elsewhere but on the west coast the market started at the black market rate.

It's taken a good decade to peel the black market tax down to more legal rates.

But there's still a ton of liability. Being forced to use cash only makes the legal shops targets. No other business is sitting on that much cash. Not even banks.

In CT you can use a debit card, they put it in as a withdrawal and give you the change in cash
