There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

They really helped out for those working and investing in MF Global. Roll Eyes Jon Corzine, the head honcho and buddy of Obama, didn't even get a slap on the wrist.

They only say what they're paid to say. I thought everyone knew this by now.

No it is worse than that. It is facism by any other name and most are just cowards for not calling it out and standing up to it now ... before the barbed wire gets rolling and the gas ovens get fired again.
