California Assembly Bill 129, a bill that would deem digital currencies ‘lawful money’ in the US state, will now head to the desk of California Governor Jerry Brown where it will require final approval to become law.

Liberty Dollars and eGold were the Napsters of digital currency. Bitcoin is the bit-torrent of digital currency. It cannot be stopped, and I will flee this hell hole of a country in a second if they actually try to stop it. However, something about this entire situation just screams DARPA project, so all this drama is just a show for the elite to buy in before they start selling it to the sheep.

Outside of the state's landscape, there wasn't much I thought it had going for it these days but they get a +1 for this.

What the fuck do you expect us to do? #1, Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. #2,  Like it or not, with the atomic bomb in our hands and a virtually untouched country after WW2 (Hawaii and Washington state only got hit with a few very small bombing attacks outside of Pearl Harbor), we had absolute power over the entire world. England, Russia, Japan, Italy, and Germany were in complete ruins, and we could have turned then entire world into one giant sheet of radioactive glass if we felt like it.

Now, given those two facts stated above, which are indisputable, how would it have been possible for us to turn into anything but the most corrupt and evil country the world has ever seen? I'm sorry, but the USA is now the NSA, and everybody, most of all Americans, are going to pay dearly in either a WW3 or Great Depression 2.0 scenario, and nobody can stop it now. I am really hoping for the second option, and also hoping that cryptocurrency is what saves us.

The constitution is useless now.

Bullshit.

True. Only the NSA constitution has been useless for about 30 years - you just didn't realise it.

It's great that some legislators are not afraid of bitcoins, but it's bad that they have no respect for the Constitution of the United States, which reads,

No State shall ... coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts;

We lost the republic a long time ago. Hopefully bitcoin is one of the weapons we can use to reclaim it peacefully.

Oh, you think the USA having absolute power over the entire globe immediately following WW2 was just a bullshit story? How cute. You don't seem to understand this concept:

most corruption ever = most power ever

Now go to bed.

"When you can't think of an argument, just tilt you head back and laugh. The stupid people might actually think you won." - Central Banker's Tactics Vol. 4

Sorry, but your standards are very far below that of the average bitcoiner. We think a lot hard than that because it is fun for us to think hard.

Now, did you actually have an argument or am I going to embarrass you again?

Oi - Captain America - STFU  :D :D

You think you represent the average bitcoiner do you? God help us all.

Go spout your "we're better than you" shite on a forum more specific to childish argument hunters, you won't sound like such an ass that way.

Idiot.
