There's the explanation. They gotta get in on that river of dirty cash. Can't let the rest of the world snatch it from our grubby fingers. We're 'Murika.

The drug dealers can just take that money to the bank. How convenient!

But who's going to protect the tellers from overdoses from that drug riddled cash?

That's a silly old drug warrior boogeyman story, still told by cops. Nobody has ever od'd from handling cash and tellers don't handle individuals bills that way, preferring machines. They handle stacks and for them to get any meaningful exposure, the shit would have to be piled on a half inch deep.

One hit of acid and people think they can fly off of buildings too…
It’s so monotonously ridiculous.

The kid says, "LSD? Won't that hurt your chromosomes?".
The man answers with a condescending NYC type voice, he says, "Kid! How do ya even know ya GOT choromosomes".

Fuckin' classic, even better than the "This is your brain" egg ad.
And nobody remembers it.

My favorite of all was one nobody remembers. A shot from behind. A man stands in front of a kid with an open coat, like a flasher. He says "I got bennies, I got dexies, I got uppers and downers. I got smack and LSD..". The kid says, "LSD? Doesn't that hurt your chromosomes?"
(Contd)

All 3 of our major banks were involved as was every one of the global ‘ big ‘banks. Deutsche bank, the largest RU bank had 20% of the transactions. Where were the JPM transactions? In NY or elsewhere?
