That's just the first step.

They lowered the limit to 420eur for independent contractors and companies here in Slovenia. They wanted to lower it to 50eur, but luckily failed.

In Spain you cannot pay anything over 1000€ in cash.

The discourse is well known, and in HN terms is like this: "why would I want PGP or SSL? Only if you want to do bad things you need that level of privacy". So "Why would anybody want to pay cash if he is doing everything within the law?"
