 Cash is dirty fiat, and just an IOU, so *you* trading it for actual money is good for *you*.

Extrapolated out to the extreme, if *everyone* does this, then the FED ends up with the dirty fiat, and the *people* end up with the actual money.

if the FED is left holding the bag of USD IOUs, then the universe wins.
