      Because cash transactions are coming under the scrutiny of   
   authority, today. Louisiana just became the most recent state to   
   require identity of purchaser in a cash transaction or a ban on the   
   cash transaction. Even a used purchase from a flea market or a   
   garage sale.   
      
      Other states are currently debating this provision.
