“But without taxes or a central bank how will we pay for genocide?”
Ideologue bitcoiners are so hopelessly dumb about this... Governments collected taxes just fine when everything was run on cash. Hiding income and especially property from the taxman is not easy.
The governments of the world that are actually funding genocide – Russia, Iran, Qatar, etc. – are doing it even though their currencies are garbage and hardly anyone trusts them enough to loan them money.
Bitcoin doesn't fix this.
I really don't understand people who support governments. Peter Todd (nprofile…7ev3) should take note. He's not a real bitcoiner.
