So what you are saying is we should move to communism and let members of federal reserve control people like slaves by printing money and handing it to their buddies? How come as a business owner I never received a dime of those printed out money? Entire economy is a huge scam just to let richest people live like kings at the expense of billions of humans. At least bitcoin is a good alternative against institutional corruption going on at the highest levels of the government.

Please don't take HN threads into ideological flamewar. It makes discussions more predictable and nastier, and we're trying for the opposites here. If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful. Note these ones: "Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples curiosity." "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith."
