Comment Re:Perhaps Tata wants to acquire Nokia (Score 1) 226

Given the roughly 35% yearly corporate tax rate in India, which also applies to Tata, and the 3 billion figure, you could estimate profits to 10 billions. If their margin averages 30%, their would have sold over 30 billion dollars worth of goods. If that's the case, I think the Indian government is right in their claim. Unless my math is way off.

From the OP

governments would either ban it or take over the system

I think this is no more possible to ban bitcoins than banning the trade of gold or banning the trade of old stamps. I'd be willing to be paid in gold and as bitcoins become more popular and accepted as payment, I'm sure being paid in bitcoins would be very acceptable. All government want is their share of the income generated by bitcoins.
