He is against tax fraud but he probably doesn't mind the government spending money on endless bureaucracy and having civil workers who get payed $100,000+ annually (with a 5% pay raise every year or they will strike) to investigate and hound a man who has the misfortune to have a sick wife and wants to save a tiny amount of money.
In the end it would be much cheaper for the tax payers if they just ditched all those regulations and just paid you your money. ...
My country's government isn't interested in making things cheaper for tax payers, IMHO. gweedo assumed tax fraud was possible and being committed. My wife isn't sick, she's dying. Sorry, but "sick" implies she might recover. She will only get worse and need even more government paid for services in the future. Which ARE in the process of being cut back. Medicare is about to initiate another round of "services we no longer provide" cutbacks. The U.S., like the rest of the world, is in the midst of the greatest transfer of wealth from the 99% to the 1% ever in it's history. People get angry and lash out. Heck, I get angry and lash out! But I save that energy for incompetent contracted service providers who to take the government money and attempt to not provide the services because they get away with that when the disabled person doesn't have a caregiver. This forum, researching crypto-currencies, they're all just another distraction from our reality. |

Personally, I made 0.04 BTC off your BS... Thanks, Gramps!
See? Even my BS is worth something. (grin) "(grin)!" so effin' annoying... I hope you don't annoy your grandchild(ren) so much... none of them will want to tend to your foot sores or help you cross streets My grandchild finds me very annoying.

Well, this thread turned into an interesting example. (grin) As for the "if everyone had a gun" meme, checkout Vice, episode 1, ASSASSINATION NATION on HBO. http://youtu.be/h0IYXxqwjDA |

Thanks for your candidness, but please don't start a thread the way you did again. I mean you never mentioned "I think", "this is speculation", etc in your initial thread. And, the title of your thread is not a hypothesis, it is just a statement. That is sort of manipulative if you know what I mean.
I would assume that is rather implied considering it's posted in the speculation sub-section. Anyone taking anything posted here as anything more than a hypothesis is a fool. +1, but there are noobs coming here that OP could be grandfather of ... Not nice of elders to trick their descendants  personal pet peeve Agh no! My grandchild is only 16! Well, I guess she could come here and learn about Bitcoin. (grin) Seriously, It was not my intention to trick anyone. I apologize. |

That's harsh, this thread's a lot better than the usual fear mongering spam in the speculation sub-forum, usual practice is to use a dozen sock puppets to ridicule anyone who dares to suggest there isn't a huge crash imminent. It took me awhile to realize this type of speculation was considered fear mongering. Nothing wrong with being a bear instead of a bull, but big difference between being a bear and implying that you have "secret" knowledge that will cause a flash crash. To me it was just humorous. Why anyone would think that a complete noob who confessed to having no BTC or any kind of non-fiat currency at all could gain a trading perspective better than other more experienced forum users confused me at first. Then I realized that what I was doing was considered a type of forum trolling, not thread trolling. Oh well. Live and learn. This guy was obviously antagonistic to my approach and chose to sum it up in a one word (but 2 syllable) expletive. I understand and have a response: To misquote someone I admire: I got 99 problems and a post ain't one.  (grin) |

I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because uh some people out there in our nation don't have trolls and uh I believe that our education like such as South Africa and uh the Iraq everywhere like such as and I believe that they should our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S. er should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future.
What are you talking about? I've no clue, can anyone translate? Sure. This is an example of trollbait. Visual aid:  (grin) |

Most people don't understand what a troll is' because we come in many shapes and colors. As suggested above, most people are probably in fact trolls in hiding, nothing to be ashamed of people.
Darn Tootin! Own it!  (grin) |

(grin)  How old are you? 80? Stop embarrassing yourself, man  Uhm, yeah, I would if I could, but I actually AM a cantankerous old geezer who's been online since before the Internets! Since 1991 on Fidonet. I was a moderator and a sysop before we could use emoticons in echos. We used smileys. But as a moderator you didn't want anyone not understanding anything you put in a response. So I would do <grin>. Some of the fidonet software didn't like the <>, so I changed it to (). Thus my overuse of the (grin) started. Yes, I know you youngsters call this tl:dr, but I don't care. I'm old! It's cold! Get use to it!  (grin) |

Hey Grin,
Thanks for that link. I'm a noob and finding the newbie forum just fine for the moment. But of course I will want to be moving on.
Cool. I recommend reading the Wall Observer thread from beginning to end. And follow all the links off it. You'll learn more about Bitcoin than you ever wanted. (grin) |

Yes, there are actually a number of people who have started threads the same way you did (claiming to have secret info) and making a prediction with the intention of manipulating the price. So folks aren't too happy with this kind of approach. Yokosan's "Feels good man" thread was a hit. Encrypt your prediction and say you'll reveal the key in 7 days, and if you don't reveal it, you'll quit the forum for good. Then when 7 days is up and your prediction doesn't come true, don't reveal the key, and don't quit the forum either. People will love you.  I should. I should hang my head in shame and quit the forum for good right now! But...Uh yeah, you know what? Uh Uh! I think I'll just leave predictions to the pros in the Wall Observer thread.

Noted. The next time I feel the irresistible urge to post a speculation, I'm going to do it in Newbies stating that it's speculation. I definitely got the feeling that people thought my intentions might be evil instead of just clueless. Oh well. Actions have consequences. |

I am not sure, but maybe more than 8. Also you need to be online for more than 4 hours. I guess.
