If you do not believe in democracy at all then why do you live in our country?

I do not live in the USA. But if I lived there, am I not allowed to have a different opinion and try to improve the system? Btw, if you dont agree with your president why do you live in your country?

have you actually read this bill?

the bill was to allow open competition for the united states reserve. Anyone can just start printing up their own money and using it. its madness and it would never work.

Oh my god, in your country there is open competition for food, and for clothes... Anyone can set up a hsop and start sell.ing trousers. Madness!!

Do you realize that most of the time in human history we have had competing currencies and it wored better than the present monetary system?

I use Bitcoin and I love it. I have been mining it before it got big, and I have used it to buy everything from computer hardware to domain names, but Bitcoin will never be the major currency of the USA and If you think that, or the only reason you are using Bitcoin is to (your own words) "undermine the countries currency" we are complete opposites. I think you can love Bitcoin and still be patriotic and Love the USA.

If you support a monopolly on money you are not patriotic, you are the opposite.

Btw, please expalin to me how Bitcoin is different than:

Fundamentalists like Ron Paul say things that sound great, but in reality if someone like Ron Paul or Sarah Palin comes into power you better be independently wealthy or your going to be completely screwed.

You have Barack Obama that its quite similar in policy to Sarah Palin and the situation is bad but ithe USA has not collapsed (yet). Ron Paul would be a real change from those two. You keep repeating that Ron Paul is a fundamentalist. Care to explain why?
