dexX7: foxconn has about 1000x more worker than jpmorgan
mike_c: foxconn has more suicides than jpmorgan.
mircea_popescu: and i'm not even fucking old! i'm sitting here and im thinking... holy shit now THAT must suck. what a curse to be born with.
mircea_popescu: if someone told me twenty years ago i will live to honestly pity the fate of the poor us citizens i'd have laughed for the rest of the day.
ThickAsThieves: do tell
mircea_popescu: you can't imagine, on a more personal note, how fucking outlandish this is to me.
ThickAsThieves: surely a small price to pay
mike_c: and there's a fee :)
mircea_popescu: (course iirc, you're not allowed to do so unless you prove it's specifically NOT because you dislike the taxation system. quite the racked your owner got going there.)
mike_c: even then you can't escape. you have to give up citizenship.
mircea_popescu: the irs can tax anything the fuck it pleases. the reaction to taxation you dislike is leaving the jurisdiction, not arguing the point.
mircea_popescu: but taxes have exactly zero to do with roads.
ThickAsThieves: do you have an argument against the IRS rulings or you think they are sensible?
mircea_popescu: it's roughly the coating in the pill, various people sprout it because you know, the slavegirl that aesthetically loves her collar isn't really as much of a slavegirl or something.
mircea_popescu: that bullcrap is entirely irrelevant to the discussion.
ThickAsThieves: like isnt there an underlying premise for taxes being that, for example you cant profit from a shipping company without roads, and taxes pay for roads, therefor you must pay them
mircea_popescu: anything can be taxed.
mircea_popescu: no, because the us does not recognise allodial title.
ThickAsThieves: is there some argument to what is allowed to be taxed at all, and bitcoin not fitting that spectrum?
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves no, you don't have to break it to sue.
ThickAsThieves: so you must break the rule to even attempt to learn it's definition?
mike_c: most of the IRS code is law, but not the btc part. http://docs.law.gwu.edu/facweb/jsiegel/Personal/taxes/code.htm
mircea_popescu: we're talking a decade and a hundred million in either case.
mircea_popescu: a rule you can have overturned by arguing more things before the supreme court than if it were a law.
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves that i get to laugh at you poor sods moar ?
ThickAsThieves: what is the exact difference between an IRS rule and a law?
ThickAsThieves: "Edmund Moy, the former director of the U.S. Mint who’s become an outspoken proponent of digital currencies, saw a mix of good and bad as well, but ultimately he made two cogent points: first, that this is is a rule, not a law, and there’s a difference, and, two, that it can be changed as circumstances warrant."
mircea_popescu: i imagine these people followed hercules around augeas' stables complaining about all the mess he's making.
mircea_popescu: bitcoin invented fair gambling, bitbet is a parimutuel implementation, anon forum derp comes to harp about how deceitful "sites" are.
mircea_popescu: there's nothing better than a good conspiraci theorist.
mircea_popescu: The most expensive code packages for gambling sites have the most deceit and advanced algorithms to rip-off the gambling fool and protect the investment of the operator. The very best ones you'll never find for sale, however. These algorithms always sit on top of whatever "edge" the operator decides to take (the "edge" is the part of the tilted table some sites even openly advertise nowadays).
