Hi everyone
After reading an article that Senator Joe Manchin said that he wants Federal Regulators to ban BTC. I believe anyone in the US should be writing to there senators and congressmen/women that the comment Senator Joe Manchin made and make him the blacksheep that he is. He has no clue what potential value of bitcoins are on the US economy. Let's face it, everything goes up and down. When you invest you make that choice to risk your earnings. There is no such thing as safe investments. All investments have a potential downside. If it was so safe, everyone in there mother would be investing in that particular investment vehicle.
Bitcoins has brought tons of jobs/employment to the US economy. Lets look at a simple thing that happen. Remember Butterfly Lab's faulty Power Supply Unit. I wonder how many people went out and brought 50-150$ power supplies from all these companies? In return they hire more employees.
We all know that Bitcoin will be industry drive of today and future.
I believe we need to all write a letter to our senators and congressmen/women to tell them BTC is here to stay matter what you think. The only reason your elected into office is from our votes. If you want to be a job creator believe in BTC. Otherwise your job destroyer.
Does anyone know how to make petition on change.org and we get everyone to sign it and sent it Senator Joe Machin. Thannks

Everyone in the BTC community should be supporting this. The fact is it takes 1 and only 1 US Senator cause havoc on our cause. Banks are too big to fail now because they are the money supply! Everyone who believe BTCs will be the wave of future should help sign this petition. God Bless America and Bitcoin! |

Link to the petition is in my sig. Pass it on to your friends. The only way the government ever listens is if enough people express their frustration.

I prefer to just let him carry on his stupid assumptions about Bitcoin, they do this kind of thing to us all the time by picking out the worse things about Bitcoin and playing it over and over again so I say we do the same with people like him to point out how stupid people are to attack Bitcoin  . |

The fact is Senator Joe Manchin who is Dem and doesn't support Bitcoin is sad excuse for Dem senator. I thought the Dem were all about small business and job creation for the middle and working class. https://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/industries.php?cycle=2014&cid=N00032838&type=I&newmem=Nlook at this 13 12 Commercial Banks $158,300 $68,800 $89,500 This is the reason why big banks executives don't go to jail for money laundering but average citizens do. If we are going to change the way politics operates on bitcoin. If Joe Manchin is really that concerns on the "war on drugs" He should ask the Feds to stop printing USD because that where most of the drug cartels get there income from. Not Bitcoin. |

Ban the internet!
Ban pollution!
Ban oral sex!
Ban prostitution!
Ban deodorant!
Vote for me again, now that I have made everything you own worthless! NOT!
How about banning FIAT... Oh wait, he owns banks and FIAT services... Plus he gets paid in FIAT... Last thing he wants is FIAT to be useless...
Too late...
No more power! Go swim in your paper-cut pools of money! Hope he gets a staff-infection... (Play on words.)
Government will not BAN something they want to "reposes", and have already "taken ownership of"... Otherwise they could not "cash it in" legally. They still have tons from silk-road they are cashing-out.

You don't have to stop him from talking... You need to stop listening to the nut-sack, and convince everyone to do the same, or they are nut-sacks also.

When did this happen hmm need to keep up with legal more Take that back I see it interesting news Russian blog, bitnovosti.com, is reporting that the Bank of Russia has informed them that the February 6, 2014 statement by the Prosecutor General’s office did not amount to a ban on Bitcoin. This information came in a letter, responsive to the site’s inquiry, which is posted with the article. The site claims that the Prosecutor General merely made a cautionary statement and committed to further study. This is in stark contrast to how the statement was presented in the media - and the blog asserts that the media overreacted. For now, this site will continue to regard Russia as “hostile” until something more concrete than a private response to a particular inquiry is released. |
