In theory I'm okay with government not sticking to their principles and making one time exceptions.
This is where the troubles began, you need to fight this to the source. Either you allow it or you don't because, as you say, there will be always an excuse for "the next final exception"
And this is why Bitcoin exists, they can't print it, they can't inflate it, they can't force you to accept and support "the current thing"
Thisis also what the 2 scentences after the quote express ;)
