No.
300MH/s = .67BTC/day
= $5.70/day
= $171/month
And anyone with that kind of MH/s is probably using no more than 250w of electricity, so 180kwh/month, or about $18 more in electricity per month. Well, if you get decent rates on electricity, anyway. $72/month at most though.
Mining is far from being unprofitable. When difficulty hits 4M, then we'll talk about it being unprofitable for a good portion of hobbyist miners.
This is a plausible scenario. What cracks me up is the people who assume the BTC exchange rate will stay the same forever 300MH/s = .67BTC/day
= $5.70/day
= $171/month

Look at the historicals. It's only going UP.But if you think the rate will go up, it's more efficient to buy BTC than to mine them.
