Your argument assumes every one agrees AML controls are necessary
No it doesn't. It posits that if you don't think they are necessary you need to accept and be ok with money laundering on your network.
It's a non sequitur. I.e. cleaning up the environment enables genocide because without oxygen there would be no people to genocide each other.
Cash exists, and people who use cash don't have to be ok with money laundering. A consequence of the system doesn't mean it is a design goal.
You clearly don't know what you're talking about. You don't even seem to understand what a non sequitur is. Good luck moving cash in material volumes in any way that's meaningful. You can't. No one is going to let you buy your yacht or your house in cash unless you can prove it's Source because of AML controls. They won't be able to deposit it into their banks so they won't let you deposit it with them either.
You are a very confident person. I'm glad you have found truth in your life.
He's right, no need to be so pretentious and sarcastic about it, you don't gain any merit this way.
