I like this take.

It also makes me think that the inferior money the US federal government spends on IRS agents, infrastructure and records could easily by shifted into mining Bitcoin and the return on investment would outpace all the nonsense of imprisonment, violence, garnishment and tax filing. Seriously, why not mine Bitcoin and run lightning nodes?

I'm sure the agents would rather be tech minded miners, node runners and Bitcoin gurus. It's amazing and it's sad that they are dying and yet they keep hitting the stimulation button for their fix of power.

Utility companies, City, county, state and Fed governments could even get rid of big data wearhouses by putting the miners in people's businesses and homes. Providing a real service of data, power and shared income.
