Just out of curiousity, Jay. If someone were to pay cash, will you
split the 16% with them?


And risk jail time? Not.

The Gummint takes tax collection *very* seriously, for some reason.

We were hunting last week in northern Montana and stayed at the same Mom
and Pop motel we have for the last 5 years. The lit up sign out front
announces vacancy and that the place is for sale. After BSing with him
for a while and my brother and I paying our bill you learn a few things.
I pay first with my Visa card. My brother pays for his two nights
with a $100 dollar bill, getting twenty something back in change. The
guy lights up like it's Christmas Eve. "Now this REALLY helps" he
says. I say, let me guess, my brother was never here. He says, never
saw him before in my life, see you guys next year. So cash buyers are
always a little more welcome around here than people with plastic.
