this is one of the problems of the US government, they all just want to take your money, even your bitcoin. I do not understand why is it no yet legalized in US, since it is also a leader in information technology, or is it just because they have a lot of consumers, making it look like they are on top. This move will just create pandemonium on their country, one of the reason why bitcoin was created is to have an alternative currency that everyone could use, since their inflation rate is so high, and we should also consider their national debt, their country is not that stable, it just seems to be stable due to the media creating a lot of distractions to more important news. I think if all Americans would find out what is happening to the world because of them, and not giving a blind eye, they would see that their government is trying to manipulate and control them. They should be weary that most powerful nations in asia are mining their own bitcoin, and in time the value of their bitcoin would surpass that of the western world and there will be a change of power. I can see that this plan of their congress may happen and there will be consequences, what they need to do is think twice or otherwise.
The US government has not represented the people for a very long time. We pay lip service to the idea of being a government for the people and by the people but the political oligarchs look after the financial oligarchs and vice versa. War is big business, bad food is big business for the huge food companies and for our pharmaceutical industry. The average American is just along for the ride.
