I've have never seen an ATM that let's you withdraw 1000's at a time but I guess they are around. I've read different articles on the war on cash, eliminating 100 and 50 dollar bills under the guise preventing criminal activity but I think this one at JP Morgan is because they are in deep do do...
We will have to keep an eye on these activities.
Next will come the confiscation of guns. When they come for mine, I will do my damdest to take onr or two, at least, to the Judgment with me. It will be interesting to see how they attempt to justify their lives' actions with their own pathetic self-rightousness.
for you, even if you have millions. . it's a guard against
a run on the bank -- and big brother is watching all of this. -- j

This is why I've been pulling excess cash out of my account.
Bitcoin, gold, silver
Nothing personal in this, RR, but I find it tiring that conservatives know so little about money, about the history and uses of money, about its forms and functions. The facts of history are lost to you.
But the beast can't track the whores, the good drugs, the tips, plus more and that's gotta bug the hell out of the beast.

How old are you? Do you not remember checks? You identified the payee and the amount, and the date, and you signed it. Were you terrified of Big Brother? Why not?
I repeat that every banknote has a unique serial number: cash is not anonymous. It is not Big Brother that enslaves you: it is your lack of knowledge.
In the days of gold money, to open a National Bank, you needed to put at least $25,000 in gold in the US Treasury. They gave you interest bearing bonds for that. In return, your bank could issue (lend) its own notes up to 90% of the value of the bonds. And still some banks failed. It's a business. Do you hate shoe stores that fail? Do you vilify the unsuccessful pharmacist who moves to another town to start over? Why do you hate bankers, calling them "banisters"?
And in those glory days, business was not anonymous. In fact, if you read anything about capitalism whether Ayn Rand or Deirdre McCloskey, you must know that reputation was everything. Anonymous transactions are for criminals.
I am careful of their use however as banks like BA use them to steal from clients.
We'll all be up the creek minus the canoe. Never mind the paddle.
Do you know how they compare?

A couple of years ago my Christmas gift book "World War Z" contained STORIES that I enjoyed more than the one story of the movie, though that was also good.
I bought a book called "Gangster Squad" that I put down due to its dull newspaper type reporting, but I enjoyed the Netflix-sent DVD for the suspense in it.
