Bitcoin is a success. Its widely used, almost anything you can now buy with Bitcoin. Adoption is increasing and it will keep getting easier to use Bitcoin as a payment method.
I am with you in the wishful thinking department. I truly want to see bitcoin succeed.
But I'm sorry you have to be realistic: what you say is simply not true. In 2014 buying a house or a car, or getting paid by your employer, or paying your taxes with BTC in 2014 is simply not possible in 99.99% of the cases.
We are taking a step too far. Ok to start off what we need is basically an auction site (a legal one of course) where you can buy a product and that particular store will pay people the extra privilege for using bitcoin. Or a store or auction sites that accept only bitcoin. Nobody is goin to exchange usd to btc just to buy something they can get straight away using usd. And that is a fact. Or Something like a discount when you purchase with btc. Maybe you are asking me what store.... the answer is i don't know but if we are going to start on something that will take us somewhere....this is what i would say we definitely need
