But the issue with that is that, especially for drugs (legal and otherwise) the government has been a profoundly NEGATIVE influence over the market, and bitcoin allows and end-run around that because it doesn't control the organisation that is bitcoin (because it is an algorithm), and the government doesn't actually control shipping (because that would destroy globalism due to the increase in costs that would bring)
For illegal drugs, the government is a negative influence because of their propensity to cause massive actual harm to supposedly "correct" small problems (e.g. an addict's third strike resulting in forcing them into a life of crime).
For legal drugs, the government is enforcing the pricing power, and even the price differentiating power (same exact product, different pricing in US vs CA or EU or India, or ...), of the pharma industry, even in cases where it's ludicrous (which is mostly the US being 10x as expensive as somewhere else).
Funny how the government is always in favor of globalism, except where it would actually benefit the lower and middle classes. Having the ability to ship medicine across borders ... there is no more clear-cut case of globalism helping people. Yet the government is fighting hard to make it impossible in that case.
In the case where it's destroying the middle and lower classes, steel imports for example, or subsidized solar panels, the government is fighting to make it continue, and protecting foreign companies and people from the consequences of their cheating (e.g. government intervention preventing Chinese firms from getting sued for fraud after falsifying steel products, essentially selling low grade steel as high grade steel, even in cases where it compromises personal safety. Apparently now the same thing is happening with Japanese firms).
