Sorry for my newbie questions. I'm totally new to bitcoins.

Is it possible that the US government could shut down bitcoin exchanges?
The kind that let you buy fiat currencies?

Thanks

MtGox runs out of Japan. How would they shut that down?

US to Japan hey you know them 10s of thousands of troops we have there protecting your ass well there gone if you don't ....

You're an idiot if you think they need those troops there. We have them stationed there for our tactical advantage which is more important than bitcoin will ever be.

Whatever asshole who got the trillion plus bailout you think they won't do their bidding again.

No, because doing so would hurt our ability to project power. It's cute that you think a currency of scammers and thieves is even a real threat to the USD.
