Again the question arises, why would you put your safety (or societies safety for that matter) in the hands of an organisation which primary goal is to make money off of you.

Everything that you wrote was garbage. Absolute nonsense.

But this one made me chuckle. I'm not sure where you live, but around here, the government is funded by taxes, and taxes are paid under threat of men with guns coming around to toss you in jail.

So, we are considering two organizations with a primary goal of making money off me. Thank you very much, but I prefer the one that doesn't threaten violence to get me to pay for things that I don't want.

Hey, if you don't like the guys with the guns then go live in another country!
But don't be surprised if that country is unstable and noone cares if you get a knive between your ribs on your walk through the park.

At least the government doesn't include a 3rd party (the share holders) that demands profit even if it means some people will die or get poor or whatever.

Are you joking?

About what?

I don't usually make inflammatory flameposts but this is going to be one. mobodick, I don't like you. I'm not going to debate any of this with you because you are clearly well beyond the capability of reasonable discussion on this stuff.

OTOH, mobodick, your people have won, and mine have lost, for the most part, in the battle for control of this world, so congratulations on your victory, I sure hope you are enjoying your utopia.

Now, what the fuck are you here for? Bitcoin can't possibly be the right currency for somebody like you.

BTW, a small plug: my recent (and, effectively, first) blog post tangentially relates to this dicussion, check it out at http://btcz.tk/. even mobodick is welcome to read but he probably won't like what I have to say. Sorry for the crappy writing, though. It's a work-in-progress.
