I wonder how many people like this turn around and then use electronic payments in person for everything.

Each transaction isn’t that much. Beating the path toward a cashless economy is a different story.

All I’m saying is that the two are not equivalent and people aren’t hypocrites for doing eletronics payments, but refusing vanity dna tests.
