Homeland Security's US Citizenship and Immigration is now considering accepting bitcoin payment for US Visa application/payment fees

the documents from USCIS.gov website reads:
"USCIS is currently considering issues involving virtual currency such as Bitcoin." related to "the use of bitcoin to transfer investment funds to the new commercial enterprise".

Well, if they want to. I don't know where they're going to benefit from a program like this, but if Homeland Security is going to try and make something like this work then I don't know if it's worth trying to make an argument in favor or against something like this.
If they make enough off of the program to justify trying to make some of these things a reality, then who am I to complain?
