Dutch politician predicts new black deathsteemCreated with Sketch.

I would like to argue in this article that politicians got scared of actual money. They got so used to central banks and the problems of the financial crisis that owing money to them became a certain loss. Now let's watch a small animation from the newspaper the Guardian. It's pretty much balanced out.

Central banks & politics

Central bank policies are usually a small disaster in the making for economies, a good example is the policy of the banks of the EU and the USA. Dutch politicians didn't know how to react to it. Like politicians often don't. Simply Roald van der Linde (VVD) compared bitcoin to the new Tulipmania. The last 'new tulip mania' was caused maintained by his party. The housing bubble. A currency of course isn't a thing to compare to a product. The bitcoin is a currency, not a product. Let it be explained.

The actual history

The tulipmania also ended because of the black death. Now is this politician saying there will be a new disaster comparable to the black death? Probably not. He is just saying something for attention. The party's he dragged into his lunacy? D66 (Social-liberals), PvdA (Labour) this are out 33+19+9=61 of 150 seats in the parliament. The following video explains the actual tulip mania bubble and mentioned the plague or the black death rather quickly.

Let's look at the market the last year

If we would put a graph with how many media coverage and people becoming aware of bitcoin would be put up to that. There wouldn't be a big difference. And we would see a similair graph.
