I would love to have a pice of s.dice, but the deal sucks for everyone else except for you.
 And I can't see how the company would keep it's value when bitcoin rallies against the other currencies.. Sad thumbs down.
S.DICE deals only in Bitcoins.

In major markets I think a low risk growth stock with a P/E of 10 is what most would consider a 'bargain.'
A low risk growth stock with a P/E of 10 would indeed be a bargain. But the catch here is that SatoshiDice is so easy to copy that it may not be a growth stock.

An astute observer may realize that by offering shares, it becomes an interesting bet to simply buy shares of SatoshiDICE instead of build it all over again and hope to outdo its marketing and brand exposure and business relationships. Not many understand that SatoshiDICE has achieved certain things which are very hard for new entrants to overcome, I won't go into all the details but examples like the 6 of the top 7 Bitcoin addresses, the massive word of mouth advertising, and integration with Blockchain.info's wallet (and soon, mobile app) are relevant.

You can spend a few thousand BTC to build a competitor and try to take a few percent market share, or you can spend a few thousand BTC and own a few percent of SatoshiDICE itself. If you throw in costs of time, dev resources/opportunity cost, statistical modelling and security risks which SatoshiDICE has already accomplished, and the decision shouldn't be too difficult.

Edit: Also, an astute observer will realize that after the IPO, SatoshiDICE will have a war chest with which to battle any competitors into submission.

If that was how the world worked people would cease to innovate and just 'invest' in what already exists......

That is not how the world turns.

People will invest their time and money in the top contenders over others.

Isn't there a place in the world for a nation with strong leadership, a united culture and community? Should people be able to participate in fascism if they choose to do so?

A lot of international militarists seem to think that shouldn't be the case and foreign countries should be obligated to intervene in culturally-rigid, authoritarian nations.

I saw a post by him a week ago on the politics board. He claims to be "anti-oligarchy" and "anti-capitalism". Does anyone know him?

Can someone tell him the irony of his views since he worships Alexandar Hamilton, a guy who wanted a central monarchy and a king for the new United States?

I'm not sure, but I believe the avatar image you speak of is of one available as a stock option on this bbs. That said, it's your avatar that I have issue with. Look at that old clunker! What you need to do, my friend, is go and buy a new or, at the very least, newer set of wheels, and paying for it via Bitcoin, thus continuing the velocity of said currency. That said, wikispeed.com may be your ticket for this purchase. That said, I hope you enjoyed the humor of this post. Enough said!
