This is when you curse the irreversible nature of Bitcoin transactions.  Grin

I pay zero fee TXs all the time and they get confirms.
The Constitution only applies to the government.
Nobody is armed forcing you to pay TX fees.

I have a curiosity about tx 0
How long usually takes confirmations?

If you are referring to how long it usually takes to get a 0 tx fee transaction confirmed then it really depends on how long it has been since the inputs have last been spent. If enough bitcoin days are being destroyed (if you are spending enough bitcoin that has been long enough since the inputs were last transferred) then it should confirm within one or two blocks. If there are a large number of unconfirmed transactions and/or there happens to be a longer then normal time between blocks when you push your transaction then it make take somewhat longer

You aren't forced but you would have to wait allot if you don't pay it, I do agree the fee is extremely high for a currency that was promoted by the fact it allows micro-payments.

3.5cents of Dollar to send thousands or tens of thousands of Dollars is extremely high? Relative to what other option??

Don't forget when all the 21 million coins have been mined we need to rely on the transaction fee to keep the network going. So don't be so stingy when it comes to paying fee. Just accept the reality. After all... Just few cents is considered small amount for a normal standard transaction taking place currently
