There are two counter arguments:

1. As real US infrastructure and capacity continues to crumble, the government could become less and less effective in its enforcements. As an extreme example (first hand) you won't find police on the roads in Honduras or in El Salvador, not because there are no traffic laws, but because the governments are helpless.

2. Big banks actually want Bitcoin. They are smart enough to see past the end of the dollar ponzi scheme, and they aren't concerned with optics or with election cycles.

I personally think it would be a great idea for the whales to grant each US senator 300 Bitcoin, and each congressman 100 Bitcoin in recognition of their excellent service to the people of the United States.
