Put as a main post one link which to be seen and to be read want a subscription. It would be good that in such occasions can be put together with the link even the username and the password of the main poster who for sure have both. Otherwise how is possible that know about what has to do the article. Cannot happen nothing bad. The maximum that can be made will the thanks of the paper where is published the article because of the increase of traffic and the readers. It is not this the aim of every newspaper?

They want to kick more workers, and instead of lowering fees on the citizens, they are going to raise their salaries. Anyone not using Bitcoin over this crap is supporting their evil plan.

Right.They will cut costs drastically, they will cout out middleman, they will become faster, more efficient and make more profits. From banks point of view this all makes sense. Again the pockets of the ones who alread earn a shitload of money will get filled with even more. But still they are going to die don't worry.Bitcoin is going to obliterate those dinosaurs!!

They want to kick more workers, and instead of lowering fees on the citizens, they are going to raise their salaries. Anyone not using Bitcoin over this crap is supporting their evil plan. but lets say bitcoin takes over as a national currency, how many bank branches would close, how many bankers would be made unemployed... all of them.. and for bitcoin, all the mining farms becoming the new elite with the sudden surge of transaction fee's.. how is that any better? no matter what control or lack of control humans have on a monetary system.. there will always be an inbalance of rich vs poor. the employment opportunities of bitcoin is far less than the employment opportunities of a fiat currency. people complain that bank managers get 1million+ a year just sitting in an office.. well realistically, mining pool owners do the same thing..
