Hey, I thought we're all about financial privacy?
The pseudo-anonymous nature of Bitcoin, with every transaction broadcast on a public blockchain, makes concealing small transactions easier than larger ones. Arguably this leads to financial privacy for smaller players, but transparency for larger players. Currently the system of bank accounts, with mandatory tax reporting, yet offshore accounts, works the opposite way. Besides, Romney is running to be president.
tl;dr: It's possible to be for financial privacy for small, personal, amounts of money, and transparency for larger, corporate, amounts.
