I'm surprised to see how many forum members are looking for regulations and eager to pay taxes to their overlords.  I think we as a community need to take a long look at this and not have the knee jerk brainwashed response most of the populace will have.  To obey and conform. 

Regulations.  Why would you want the blockchain/crypto to be regulated by the government (bankers)?  We were just given the keys to the kingdom with a free form of money that is not part of the banking/government cartel and we are now just a few years later asking them to come in and regulate things?  The entire reason we need crypto in the first place is because these governments/bankers have screwed us over in every way possible and the theft has become so rampant the system is breaking and a transition needs to be made. It's unthinkable to me that people are not outraged and trying to stop these leeches from destroying this technology.  The really sad part is some are willing to allow it in so they can make a quick profit. 

Taxes.  Do you realize the central bank prints our money out of thin air?   This money is backed by nothing.  It can be and is printed a will!  They then tax you, taking half your income.  The theft of your income (tax) should not be necessary if the money can simply be printed.  Further  since they are printing all this extra money the half you get to keep inflates away.  Did you sign up to pay for this tax or were you forced into it?  This tax along with our consumerism addiction is what keeps us locked down as slaves.  Bitcoin is introduced to us that gives us a means to stay private and most of the forum members here are lining up to pay taxes and fill out KYC forms for airdrops.  WTF. 

We are paying for and allowing our own slavery.
