That's the point I am trying to convey. Instead of waiting for the normies and the politicians to "do something", do something yourself and arrange your affairs so that you are less affected by what the normies and politicians do. Then you will feel less sad or frustrated about how slow bitcoin adoption is going.
And, yes, you can tell normal people that they can buy bitcoin at a local meetup or with vouchers from azte.co or whatever. Most of them won't do it, but some might.
Westerners (especially Americans and Britons) have been conditioned from birth to obey the Authorities, and to view anything other than blind, unquestioning allegiance to the State as unpatriotic. Ironically, Americans persist in believing that they are free and independent, when the opposite is true.
