As an American rooted in the puritanical foundations of my country I do not support speculative financial instruments and believe rather money should come from strong hard work ethics. Therefore I do not approve of these crypto currencies

I can't tell if this is satire. If it is it's pretty good. If not, no offense meant.

The "puritanical" foundations of the US had _tons_ of speculative financial instruments, including the colony/state/US currencies in their early years/decades.
