In the US cash is only good to pay off debts (ie, "for all debts public and private"). Odd how that's opposite but functionally the same.

Clearly you can buy other things lol...

As far as I understand it, you're not "buying" anything: 1) You are given an item, 2) You incur a debt for that item, 3) then you pay off the debt with cash.

What about charity? Is that debt also?

I would view charity as gifting "tokens (cash) good for wiping out debt". However, as far as the law is concerned, I'm none the wiser...
