careful there cowboy -- the law of your land is not the law of your neighbor's land. James Bond provides one view of the world, and the stars and stripes seem to have some blinding power in Hollywood, but in reality, tax and tax enforcement is not perfectly molded or enforced. The Tax Sheriff and his men drive very new models of auto, ever noticed that?

I don't understand the point of this comment.
I'm not making any judgements in my comment above, I'm merely stating my perception.

I think they were trying to argue in favor of tax evasion, which is both illegal and a different topic than money laundering. Sure is interesting the kind of defensive comments you get on any story negative about crypto.
The real (unspoken) use-case of bitcoin is large-scale international money laundering.
