Sounds like you don't know what you're talking about. This all works fine in the USA for us, it's not a bad system at all.

I have ALL options available to me - cards, contactless payment, cash, credit, whatever. I celebrate the fact that cash is an option that lets me avoid having every data-hoarding entity collect records of my purchases.

Taxes aren't fucking me anywhere, I pay them and I get government services and infrastructure in return. Taxes aren't hurting me at all in fact.
