Dear Benjamin Lawsky,

Transparency is a two-way street.

If you desire transparency of Bitcoin companies, please reveal:

1) When your central bank will stop printing money and debasing the currency used by millions of retirees for their savings.

2) Why nobody at HSBC was criminally charged with money laundering, despite their recent case which represented the largest money laundering scandal in history.

3) Whether you believe two consenting adults, in an allegedly free country, having been found guilty of no crime, have the right to do business privately between themselves.

Of course, you don't have to respond to these questions, and you won't. Yet, you'll force other people to respond to your questions with threats of theft (fines) and or kidnapping (imprisonment). How civilized.
