What is sad is that this doesn't piss people, even those unaware of bitcoin, off. If I heard some psychobabble like that on the radio, I would immediately research (and perhaps support) whatever they're talking about. Sounds like soviet era propaganda, just the "happy but shoved in your face tone" is annoying, like trying to convince a 5 year old not to eat that red berry.
It's like the article I read the other day where someone in government was saying bitcoin was bad because we need "Government to have the ability to print money without controls." Well, I know that's what they're doing, but how can they openly say that and not cause a general freak out?
Best part of this add, about the bearer bonds requiring a social security number (which shouldn't be) is that they imply some similar mechanism will come into play for BTC. In the US, perhaps. But this is a worldwide thing, I suspect will start gaining more support outside of the US.
