How about a cash replacement?

It's always seemed odd, in this capitalist, dog-eat-dog arena of business competition, that all the prepaid cards insist on ridiculous fees. Why doesn't someone see the opportunity to simply live on the float from the time the company gets the cash to the time the cardowner spends it? All I want is to buy my morning coffee without everyone from my card company to my government (and probably everyone else's, too) knowing about it.

I wonder how long it'll be before retail stores quit accepting cash, and everyone knows about every pence you spend?
