Well... The gas station won't let me pay in gold or BTC. Neither will the grocery store, my university or the utility companies... Also hookers don't accept BTC, though they might accept gold in the form of bling bling.
OP's idealistic world where everyone accepts milligrams of gold for every item doesn't exist. And no one even knows about BTC. We're a small number compared to everyone else. Though it is growing.
Actually, everyone I have every asked does ... just ask for managers and such, not the idiot behind the counter ...
Have you actually ASKED about it ... most people haven't .. they just ASSUME not.
Also, I've noticed that most people answer as 'the U.S. doesn't blah ' ... hey .. quit doing business with todays' stupid Nazis. The U.S. citizens is horrible, uneducated, idiots for the most part (not all but
most) ... these are people that not only do
not know the name of their own nation .. but can
not point it out on a map of
itself,
literally.
I'm not focusing on the U.S. I prefer some intelligence.
Absolutely every Canadian I've talked to has said they will happily accept
Gold/Silver with a smile, that includes companies.
Yeah buddy, let me just drive to that OTHER university that I attend. You know? The one that actually accepts gold. And yeah, a corporate or chain type store would not accept gold. I would laugh if someone tried to pay me in gold. No one keeps a weighing apparatus on hand in case some weirdo wants to pay in gold.
Yes the US is horrible. Great generalization there buddy. Let me make a generalization. You have horrible grammar and produce illogical/strawman arguments, therefor your entire country is bad at grammar and it's number one export is logical fallacies.
