I say this with full sincerity: what the fuck is your point?

That while bitcoin is important, its not the fight between you and govt

My point is we have to reshape our govts to work with bitcoin. And not remove govts to be able to freely work with bitcoin. Because we are govt at the end of the day

I often see bitcoin promoters who want 100% bitcoin free life, no inflation, no taxes. But then they forget all govt gives them and takes that for granted. And also they don’t want to think how can bitcoin without govts and military protect them from barbarians who divide and concur (and unfortunately they still ecost)

Absolutely not. Governments are, with extraordinarily rare exception, unproductive leaches. They steal through taxes and inflation. They wage forever wars. I could go on and on.

I am for unhindered, free markets. The only productive use of government is to defend individual property rights.

the military must be funded

So you understand that you want to support military right? I also think you understand its hella expensive. Do you suggest direct volunteer funding of military with bitcoin donations?

I don’t have an answer to how this should work. I’m just sure it makes no sense discussing complete govt and removal without prior understanding of how to protect yourself from external threat at least. Unfortunately I had to learn it hard way on my own experience

No offends but its very sad there are no bitcoin promoters who can hold basic levels of critics after bitcointalk era ended around 2011
