Damn. Gabby, the people would; but what does your statement have to do with reality?

And since when is there an American difference between People and Government?  It's like you missed the point of civics and debate completely.

Also, what's Obamacare?  Congress nationalized ROMNEYCARE.  Bitcoin is almost a national currency somewhere in the world... now deal.

Maybe potholes on the federal highways will actually get paved with bitcoin.  Who knows.
If one pothole can be filled, it's worth it.

the goverment is supposed to enforce the will of its people, but this is rarely the case, that's why we tend to avoid taxes instead of paying some punkass congress member a new mercedes
don't get me wrong, I pay my taxes but this is just my opinion..
it would be for the best if we had no politicians and decide about everything via public voting polls

If you want something, you'll have it built.

The concept of government managing money for the people is founded upon the concept that others will be paying more money than you.

If you really want something to be built - i.e, a road - you could easily pay someone to have it built. You could also contribute to a pool of money that will have it built, which is exactly what the government does.

However, you don't do that. You instead vote to impose a law on others that force THEM to do the same thing as well. The entire concept is founded upon your belief that you will be able to take resources from others, to get what YOU want, instead of getting what YOU want yourself.

Most stupid comment of all time. Do you know what communism means? YOU are the one advocating socialism/communism. Seriously its like people these days don't even bother to understand anything and instead just spout random crap.

If everyone was doing as they pleased, we would all be working on creating something that we enjoy doing.

Solution.  Put the bad guys in charge and let them exploit society. 

Oh and pretend they are good.  Give them titles like honourable and such.  That will make them good.
