The only technically knowledgeable people who support this inane system design do so because they see clearly that it will consolidate the infrastructure into a form that is as easily controlled as fiat money is currently. To many many people, this consolidation of control is a good thing. Most people love Big Brother whether they realize it or not and have the reflexes trained to support him.
this is precisely why we disagree on everything. i believe that the internet can allow the ppl to take back control of their money as it should be. don't forget that central banks are still a relatively new concept in the modern age. with that, i mean, going back 100 yrs or so.
maybe it's naive, maybe not. but it certainly is worth the effort and risk to try. which is why i support lifting the block limit just to see what happens. i believe we will cope.
