Boycott is the only way to extirpate a disease. The disease, the cancer is the ones that only want to comply with gov rules.
When the solution is so simple: DO NOT COMPLY. Who the fuck is this gov to impose rules over my own money?
Nobody is asking this simple question.
This is Amboss now...

Let's play this out: if you are a bitcoin business that follows the do not comply path.
I imagine you get fined.
Now, you can choose not to pay the fine, but then I imagine you go to jail.
They can put you in jail because you have a bank account and your business pays taxes. So they know where you live.
Maybe we should say to the business, you weren't cypherpunk enough. Don't have bank accounts. Don't pay taxes. But then I think we have just given them many more hurdles and starting a business is hard enough.
It seems to me that all we end with is all the good people quiting and giving up because they can't out compete the shitty people.

I imagine you go to jail.
so people pay fines only because are threaten. Is it not this plain robbery?
You can easily won in any court.
So you prefer to just obey and say nothing... yeah but you want "freedom" with Bitcoin.
I have news for you... until people will not realize that by simply saying "I do not comply" and fuck off the gov, Bitcoin will be totally useless, in a compliant environment.
Let's stop this whole bullshit with "if you do not pay taxes you go to jail".
IS A TOTAL BULLSHIT TO SCARE BRAIN DEAD NPCS.
I am fucking tired of people defending the government, meanwhile they cry that are not "free"... FFS, not just say "fuck the gov"... DO IT!
I see only pussies and cowards everywhere, without balls...
IT IS BITCOIN OR NOTHING !

Perhaps you are right. I fear I am so much an NPC that I am not willing to risk finding out whether you are right though.
My past experiences with disagreements with the government are that you end up getting screwed and it doesn't change a thing for the better.
But aside from this: businesses are a great model for channeling resources into building a thing. If people follow your advice here, I don't see how they run a successful business.

You fear because you didn't paid attention to all my SN posts for the last 3 years now....
I posted so many material how to fight the gov and howto make it OBSOLETE.
But yeah, people do not want to listen me. They only want to ridicule me, yeah I am the crazy one, saying bullshit.
I am the one that challenged a whole gov in court and I won! How ? I rebut any of their claim of authority over me, with a simple question.
reply
I had not read about your successful court challenge.
I know people who refuse to pay US income tax because they claim it is unconstitutional. It's a giant headache for them. And sure they aren't in jail, but they spend so much of their time dealing with the mess it creates.
I still maintain such a stance is a nonstarter for a business.

I posted this link over hundred of times on SN....
It explain so easy how to rebut the IRS

That is exactly what govs want: obedient slaves.
Nobody should dare to challenge them. Just obey.
But yeah... we want freedom !
Fuck freedom, let's be obedient instead.
