Can you legally ask your employer to be paid in cash?

I was tin foil hatting this morning about this. Fuck the banks. They take what's in your account, invest it, turn a profit, give you nothing for it and then they charge you a fee at the end of the month. I don't want that anymore, fuck that. I getting out of this circle of abuse. Everybody has a bank account. Nobody thinks twice about this. We all pay the fees like morons while they make billions every year off our backs so the CEO can buy yet another yacht... I'm telling you, fuck that. Why are we doing this?
That being said; do you guys think I can can just demand my employer to pay me in cash and then give me a pay stub for taxes?
Will this put me on a bunch of lists? Have you ever asked that before?
Here we have a legal right to be paid by cheque, by direct deposit or in cash. Althout I'm not sure if the employee makes that decision or the employer makes that decision.
Food for thought.
Do you guys know?

I'm pretty sure if cash payment is an option, it's up to you to make that decision. You won't be put on a list unless you don't pay tax. Just bring up the law you mentioned and ask if it would be possible to get switched over to cash payment on the next paycheck.
Also this...
--------------------
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

My understanding of legal tender law is that if someone owes you money and offers something other than legal tender to pay the debt, you can refuse and sue them for non-payment of the debt. Cheques definitely are not legal tender.
If you're not willing to take it to court though, they may just tell you to get fucked.

You can definitely get a check, a paper check, that you can cash.
Also there are bank account options without fees

If you're concerned about your bank charging you fees, get another bank.

if you're being paid in cash it typically means you're not having taxes taken out, come tax time you'll be paying those taxes out of pocket

True.
Again. Responsibility. Plus you get to actually feel the pain of taxes firsthand in you hands...
Has your tax issue been resolved by the way?

lol Wut. It's illegal for your employer to not take out a withholding, and if for some reason they don't it would be illegal for you not to pay estimated tax every quarter (maybe every months not sure)

um no.
1099, an employer leaves you responsible for all your tax liabilities because he hired you as a contractor

Just cash the check and put the money in your mattress. 
I don't pay fees at the bank and I get a Birthday card from the main office hand signed by the employees.

I'd be ok with employers withholding some cash for the government. I know I'm I could be investing that money somewhere and make a profit but fuck it. too much trouble.
