The right to slaughter six year olds in schools and terrorize lawmakers from the wrong political party shall not be infringe. This is a topic, like internet sales with state sales taxes, which just brings out the crazies. They do not learn, they do not listen, they will never learn, and they will never listen.
To the religious zealot the holy text is truth, and reality is frequently in accurate. This is true regardless of which religion they follow. LIbertarianism is a religion in the same way that Marxism is.
You clearly have not the smallest understanding of the Commerce Clause and have not read Quill. The federal government has plenary power to regulate interstate commerce, and can therefore grant to states the right to collect excise levies on particular acts of interstate commerce, or forbid them from doing so.
Learn to use Google, it's catching on, I hear it may be a big thing some day.
Is to read a tax thread on slashdot, that the rest of the world isn't this burblingly insane gives hope.
Yes states can collect excise taxes, and yes this bill is constitutional. "On a computer" or "over the internet" do not make fundamental law vanish. Whether state sales taxes are a good idea, is a different question, one of policy, not law.
Incorrect, the number of days of that level of volatility in a major currency since world war II is small (the Yen crash, the attack on the pound, a few other big days) this is normal for BTC, which is a thinly traded and volatile by design. That 9% of the economy was taken down by that volatility shows the reason for stabilizing mechanism in a trading system.
the new design principles of cow path work flow, one way trap doors, modal dialogs, and above all the great mouse click god are destroying the metaphor. We are building for fools and soon only fools will be able to use it. A/B testing is the worst idea in UI design since the rubber eraser joystick that was on lap tops from people too cheap to buy a track pad.
Not all criminal enterprises are pyramid schemes. The growth of bit coin parallels the perception of moral decay of the regular economy. Bit coin doesn't have to be straight, just not that much more crooked than the legal economy.
BTC monetizes the infrastructure of anonymity, but does not enforce transactions. It's short of key differences between a token and a currency. Fiat is the ability to create currency, but fiat does not come by fiat. A real currency is one that can command an economy capable of enforcing its will. This is why the money of many countries is called "junk" currency - the country can't actually enforce its writ.
Yeah that road in front of your house is completely useless. So are those aircraft carriers. And we could just sink all government land into the sea and no one would notice.
Divisibility is not a part of being a currency. Divisibility dates back to grain as currency in Sumeria. Your interlocutor may be a fanatic, but that does not mean he's always wrong. Of course the BTC want to talk about divisibility as a way of convincing people that infinite deflation isn't a problem. that they will still be able to pay BTC tax on their transactions, since they won't be holding BTC for long, and that, not the divisibility, is the issue. No one actually wants to do business in BTC, they only want to use it as a proxy or as a chip in a game.
No that's wrong to. To have a fiat, you have to be able to back it. BTC does nothing to back it's fiat. BTC are like chips at a poker game, so long as the other players honor them then it is OK, but there's nothing else.

Yes, obviously we haven't been stupid enough and even greater depths of idiocy need to be employed.

You do, it is called term limits. How's that working out for you?

Is find a way to Darwinize the fringies using it. Excellent.
"Scientists claim Europe must surrender to the European Commission or starve."
To surrender to a corporate tyrant is just as bad as to surrender to any other sort of tyrant.
I'm still a fucktard! I'm just not fucktarded enough for reddit

I'm a libertarian fuck with plenty of sock puppet mod points.
Nope Fuck that fuck you is still trolling.

closer to "must be unsafe at any speed."

Say something wrong that people want to believe, then block the box for 30 years.

It's gambling + seigniorage.

CAPITAL LETTERS doesn't make your assertion any truer. Fiat currencies, in the end, must be able to enforce fiat, or there is no "being."
BTC monetizes the infrastructure of anonymity, but does not enforce transactions. It's short of key differences between a token and a currency. Fiat is the ability to create currency, but fiat does not come by fiat. A real currency is one that can command an economy capable of enforcing its will.

BTC have been falsified several times, by stealing wallets.

This is actually an important point, the chain costs are getting noticeable.
