Stop Senator Joe Manchin please help.

[greenalliancegroup]

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.

look 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.

You were wrong.

I thought the Dem were all about small business and job creation for the middle and working class.

Why would a politician create a job?  Is he a businessman?

What you really want, I think....is something different.

You want public statements about free, unfettered Btc from such as Rand Paul.

There will always be some statists and control freaks in our elected representatives, and there will always be some of the public who stay quiet while they try to achieve their ends.

That's what one should always be on guard against and always be prepared to fight against.

Where in the world did you get that idea?

It is funny how so often it is democratic politicians not reps who pull the populist stunts

Right; signing a petition is the political version of the realistic event that is: doing nothing.

What makes the bitcoin community show resilience is coming together and not taking stupid comments made by politicians. We don't want the politicians to hurt themselves from being stupid. As the motto goes "helping noobs from not hurting themselves since 2009"

I don't think this is a real reason why big banks executives don't go to jail
