your bank can close your credit card and freeze your account and there's nothing you can do about that.
bitcoin allows you to become your own bank, you can even loan funds to other people without anyone being able to stop you, no credit card can do that.
There are very few bank users who worry about having their account frozen or their credit card's line of credit frozen, because most people aren't terrorists or drug dealers. So tell me again why exactly everyone is going to start using bitcoin? Why would I want to loan money to a friend? That sounds like a bad idea to begin with, but I suppose if I really wanted to, I'd just write him a check?

what else needs to happen for you to understand that sooner or later they are going to rob you.
there won't be any more obvious signals than this, the next step is you wake up one day and your bank account is frozen.
just like this guy did:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=160292.0Right now they are paying me to hold dollars, I can get more gold, more gas, more commodities, and after the last 4 days more stock. BTC is down 60 percent over the last 10 months, the good ol USD is up 8-9 percent against the euro, 9-11 percent against gold, 3 dollar gas is on the way. Bitcoin is inflating (which is a function of supply AND DEMAND) while the USD is deflating and you are telling me I will get robbed holding dollars and get rich holding BTC, I am telling you it is just the opposite. The best assets class right now is USD.
your basically gambling that youll be able to pull your dollars out before they confiscate them or inflate them to zero.
America can't have a deflating dollar, it has too much debt.
you can be sure the printing press is being warmed up.
