RALLY!

[sunnankar]

The one thing are new business relations the other established ones. You should never burn bridges even if you think it suits you.

If a service provider is unwilling to accomodate how I want to give them money then why would I think they would be willing to accomodate me when it comes to the goods or services I want from them?

When it comes to my customers I will take their money however they want to give it to me.

But when it comes to running my business then I have a fiduciary duty to shareholders and contractual duty to employees and suppliers. I strive to always pay in full on time as agreed.

In the current environment with (1) debt-based political currency, which can become worthless overnight, (2) a 500-year old payment transfer system that is a barbarous relic and can seize up at any time, (3) financial institutions constantly needing bailouts from the government to continue functioning and (4) constantly changing legal landscapes when it comes to currency controls [all types of problems with Argentina lately!] therefore a reasonably prudent business person will seek to mitigate those risks. I cannot afford to either put myself in a situation or be put into a situation by the actions of a counter-party where I am unable to pay in full on time as agreed.

The bottom line is that the current financial and monetary system has become a significant liability to people running businesses.

Bitcoin is an equity-based currency with a functioning transfer system that receives no bailouts and is censorship resistant. It greatly mitigates all of those risks. As those risks are mitigated then my ability to perform contractual duties, like making payroll, is increased and the risk of losing some or all of the enterprises' working capital, with a bank failure, currency collapse, misapplied seizure, etc. is greatly decreased.

Consequently, the business has a more solid foundation and greater likelihood of remaining a going concern and generating profits for shareholders.

Wow, if we had more sunnankars and less ElectricMucuses, the bitcoin world would be at least 10 times as large as it is now.

I still don't see how terminating a working business relationship would help anybody. But then I don't know what dealings you are in.


Yeah I can already see there are different ideologies at work here, we probably wont reach consensus and have to find out.
I'll be around... that answers your "issue" aq.

And I still don't see you this relates to the topic of this thread. Rally, anyone?

It isn't.

But our ultabulls always try to encourage discussion in it in order to have it at the front page. I thought I'd play along for once.
It's not often that people try hard in this forum. I must say this was a stimulating debate

cheers sunnankar

Well, I agree that terminating a working business relationship does not help employees or customers and leads to a lower standard of living for the general populous.

But due to the business environment in the United States, carry-trade of the US$ and Greater Depression we have been selling, severing relationships and shuttering viable businesses in the United States. Additionally, we have withdrawn significant amounts of capital from any US or European business ventures and refused to make additional capital contributions in almost all of them.

Just because it makes money today does not mean it will make money tomorrow nor does it justify the continued investment of time, attention, money and future even if it is currently profitable.

It takes a lot of risk and effort to build a business. When the current one swims in carries you downstream faster than you can swim then why keep swimming upstream? Why keep moving the world? Why not just disappear to Atlantis?

Imagine a world where everyone had access to personal force fields via an artificially created gland that was made to grow into their abdomen by a nano machine / virus.

I wonder if this could be the Bitcoin Project's major announcement?
