But, if you fully trade using any of those examples as money, you're actually invisible to the tax collector...

My landlord doesn't accept turnips either. And he needs to pay property taxes regardless of whether or not I'm renting.

Do you live in a cashless society?

The only time I touch cash is:

1. When my girlfriend pays me her half for getting groceries.

2. Which I then use to feed the laundry card refill machine in my apartment.

Mind you, I don't want cash to go away, but yes, I essentially live in a cashless society.
