Politicians will never understand Bitcoin. We few on this forum are the only nation that understands and will survive the currency war. Let the states join the race to the bottom. Let the goldbugs fear the metal detector toting highwaymen. Let the wall street and fifth avenue wizards lose their tongues to hft. Bitcoin doesn't lie, cheat, or steal.
Virginia would be smart to build an ASIC mining rig and purchase Bitcoin before some other commonwealth drives up the price, but they won't because unlike the founding fathers in America, politicians have no vision.

I shot Robert Marshall an email about bitcoin last night after hearing this. It has all of the features they want and more. If others do that, maybe they'll consider it.
I did too. Got a response the email had been forwarded to Marshal for consideration. We'll see.
