	Humane? What the hell are you talking about? The fact that

	in order to fund whatever 'free' and compulsory social plan I

	Of course bitcoin pushers won't talk about why it sucks. 

	Wait. If I recally correctly, you as a pusher used to whine
	about bitcoin being used in black markets because of the bad
	press? And now you changed your tune? lol
