Americans (I guess you are also exhibiting the same pattern even if you are a Canadian) always blow my mind. They are burning fuel by the gallons, they can buy all types of junk for hundreds or thousands of dollars, they've been born in such abundance and quality of life that they can afford to say things like "ohh fuck bloat, I'll just buy a hard disk that costs 300$" (which is the wage of a developing nation worker) and the next minute they'll be saying things like "I don't want to pay 1-2-5 cents in fees" or they'll be pushing for the massive destruction of value, such as in the case of a contentious hard fork, saying that this will somehow lift some obstacle and increase their ...value. It's plain stupidity. ...
Envious foreigner:
Roughly half of humankind lives on $2 a day or less.
Those humans can't afford to run nodes.
They also can't afford the 8c fees you propose.
They can't afford to use Bitcoin, period.
You foreigners always blow my mind. How can you be so fucking ignorant?
Also: how come are you foreign guys always so poor?
