It’s nice to see an honest assessment from a regular working Joe about how things are going. I hope things work out for the Salvadorian people - their president, I’m not so concerned about.

I’m not sure why this person talks about cash so much while also claiming that “Chivo Wallet” is used by some people. I use cash to pay for goods and services like electricity and running water, as well as to avoid having my property or wages seized for failing to pay taxes. Is purchasing those things with Chivo Wallet significantly more difficult than purchasing them with cash?

It’s clear to me that exchanging physical cash is the most anonymous way to move assets, and that paying to keep IRS agents away from my house is the best use of cash (with purchasing stamps from the USPS coming in a distant second). However, that did not seem to be the post’s main point.

I do wish this person used a federated service instead of reddit so I could more easily discuss these things.
