Its production will drop by the half every 2 years, what happens when it reach numbers close to 0?

I know people who mined from the start will be rich, but what happens to the economy? People will stop to mine, how will the p2p network keep going?

At this point Bitcoin will be worth enough that transaction fees make mining profitable.

How can I bee so sure? If Bitcoin won't be worth enough by then, it can be considered a failure long before.

I'm asking because I see bitcoin as a way to free myself from my government, I'm a libertarian, and I'm having a hard time to figure out how would bitcoin be a persisting solution for international currency.

Yes, bitcoin is free money. Not as for free, but like free speech.

I've done some researching, and there are a lot of people who consider bitcoin a pyramid scheme, including the developers of solidcoin.

See: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/FAQ#Is_Bitcoin_a_Ponzi_scheme.3F

Also, why do you listen to the solidcoin "developers". Its nothing but a cheap copy of bitcoin by people envy of the early adopters, that want to be early adopters themselves. (I'm NOT a early adopter)

That was very helpful and clarifying. Thank you, Akka. I hope your answers will help people who had the same doubts that I had.
