Re: The taxpayers' oligarchy - A way to organize large societies
I think your wrong... there is no way to make it work, we are all different, have different needs and beliefs!
Society need to organize itself in a peer to peer way:
Get together with like minded people and live for life!
You can't force your opinion on others, or they will resent you!
No Government will ever work in an enlightened society!
Its a point of view... here is another:
The euro turned every eurozone country into a corporation without their (the countries) knowledge,
since they are forced to finance themselves in a "free" market, just like, and competing with, normal corporations.
In theory there is nothing wrong with this, in practice none of the southern countries were ready to "behave" like a corp.
There is too much inefficiency, corruption, etc... and there are always some sectors of society that need to be subsidized (unemployment, social security, etc) which is contrary to behaving like a corp that only has profit in mind (the eco-system we are living in right now).
Big financiers saw this as an opportunity to make money and started shorting the "southern" countries "stock", causing it to fall through the floor and getting rich in the process...
If the other countries (the theoretically rich ones) don´t support the small ones, the whole thing collapses... (which is not necessarily a bad thing!)
I think the problem is... most of these EU countries still don't understand that to succeed in this environment they need to BE corporations...
But if they behave like corporations, the people will revolt... because they just see their "money" flying off to bing banks in exchange for nothing... really.
However, its not the people's fault, they trusted their banks and politicians... and that trust was abused!
Here is my opinion: if your country is a corporation that was screwed by the market...
Just close it, and re-open under a new "management", getting rid of all the pseudo-debt in the process!
Screw the corporations!
Some things should no be handled by central markets,
as they can be easily abused (mtgox ddos anyone? - sell high, ddos-panic, buy low)
or... some people should bo be allow to buy/sell in the market...

Prices will all go down to what people can/are willing to pay!
Profits will go down to what everybody is willing to give you in return for services provided.
Anyway, its all changing... What are you going to buy when you have a 3d printer in your house? Materials! Nothing else!
Even 3d printers cam be 3d printed ( just ask your friend to print you one... pay him for materials and give him a tip!)
How is anybody going to find jobs (as we see jobs today) in this scenario?
Only services will survive!
Also.. forget all intellectual "pdeuso" property!
Its not enforceable since it costs nothing to copy!
I don't think this is a bug, this is a feature.
Fees make transactions have different speeds, thats is the whole point of fees (at this point).
The bigger the fee, the faster the transaction (theoretically).
A second transaction with hier fees can go faster and possibly reach 51% of the network faster than the first transaction with no, or lower, fees.
As a merchant you should look at the fee paid for any given transaction, and allow more confirmations for lower fees,
I dont think there is any other way around it, since mining operators will always prioritize higher fees.
I think, that ideally, a 0 fee transaction should wait for 51% confirmations before being acted upon.
Does any of this make sense to you?

That is not what I meant!
I'm talking about PPV porn sites!
Porn is free?
Not exactly:
Pornography is big business--with $10 billion to $14 billion in annual sales.

Hi, just one more newbie emerging from the water!
The question on the subject is a honest one.
Usually they are early adopters of all kids of technology (even 3d for g*d's sake).
I believe bitcoin, for them, would increase revenues (due to "anonymity") and decrease costs (with payments).
Also it would greatly increase the bitcoin economy!
Anyway, just my 0.2(BTC)
