Paul is the only man in America worth listening to, and who makes sense.
He was not pushed to be front runner. As the puppet masters got scared, rumblings reported from 08 Bilderberg is they expressed their dissatisfaction with Paul, he was gaining too much support exposing them and the FED RESERVE, they realised he has MASS APPEAL with the people, as he is smart, articulate, knowledgeable, speaks truth, wants reform, knows we are all being SCREWED big time. So McCain was in.
it's always interesting to see how reporters ALWAYS dismiss common sense at the end of each interview with some derogatory comment like "yeah, ok...thanks for sharing with us your bullshit beliefs".
And what's with all those television screens, tickers, spinning logos?? it gave me a headache.
what he talks about is WHY we're in the sitaution we're in and how he would fix it - very refreshing compared to some candidates. He haas stated repeatedly that he would allow a recession to happen but it would only last about a year and the market would fix prices naturally, the way it's supposed to happen, with no gov't intervention. what do you not understand about this? the rest that you mentioned are the reasons we're in the mess we're in, but you don't want to believe it apparently.
Our financial institutions were on the verge of collapsing and causing a catastrophic depression. Huge firms were toppling in one week, such as Lehman Brothers, AIG, and WAMU.
Ron Paul was irresponsible saying this would lead to a short recession. Please visit my site for more details.
Ron Paul blames everything on printing too much money. That is simplistic beyond belief. We also had bubbles, financial panics, and economic collapses under the deflationary gold standard, such as in 1890.
You don't listen to the specifics. Paul is VERY specific in his interviews and website on what the problems are - it's not just printing money, it's a US Gov't that has involved itself in social welfare and bailouts when it has no authority nor business to do so. Enron collapsed, affected mostly Texans, and the value of that asset went down to zero - LET THAT HAPPEN w/ other assets instead of taxing US to keep them afloat!
and the reasons for that collapse are IMPORTANT. The reasons are what Ron Paul offers, and he knows how to fix the problem. What are you offering? A simple way out? Never works.
The reason there's no simple way out of this is because government and industry are in bed together, and our Founders didn't want it that way. YOu can't deny the gov't is propping up the prices of housing in a misguided, short-term plan to "save" an industry that became overheated with bad loans - those assets need to be liquidated QUICKLY for us to get back to a healthy economy. It's common sense. And we don't have capitalism now, it's DEBTISM,partly due to government involvement in the market
You need to have the assets liquidate in a way that does not cause our financial institutions to fail.
A financial collapse would cause a severe monetary contraction due to the massive liquidation of loans. This is because the dollar you put in a financial institution is lent out and circulated among many people.
A financial collapse would be like an atomic bomb. The Great Depression was formed due to bank panics.
No, it was due to government policy. Markets correct prices and things go back to normal. The reason we're in the situation we're in now is because the government is too involved in banking via the fed. Get rid of the fed and even though it would be a tough adjustment, it woudln't be nearly as bad as how the government is destroying the dollar. You're going against all common sense if you really think $700billion bailouts, even with the best intentions, are going to do any good - they won't.
What's worse - propping up the value of assets artificially and wiating for the atomic bomb you speak of, or allowing the market to liquidate assets that everyone KNOWS are bad now?
Stop spamming your site to us, going to start flagging next time.
Our biggest concern right now is going to be hyperinflation. China and other countries have started letting go of there holds on federal reserve notes, so where will they go to. Back home to America to flood the market with money that has been given credit because the government says it has the ability to pay its debts. Which it obviously cannot pay its debts.
There are several ways to measure the size of government. I generally use the Cost of Government as the metric - the sum of all spending, regulation, and wealth transfers.
It looks like the 40% is an accurate representation of the growth of spending and wealth transfers, but what about cost of regulation? How about Sarbane Oxley and the slew of other bureaucratic red tape that was passed under Bush?
Ron Paul knows the FINANCIAL industry, this is NOT new to him. He has been warning people for well over a year, nobody listened.
Some are now, but its toooooo..late.
I want all of you out there to try something.
Look at your check book balance, go out today and write a check for double that amount. Lets see where that lands you. Now, go in your basement and print out enough money to cover the overage. You know where that lands you. PEOPLE..THIS IS A NO-BRAINER.
that woman just sounds really unintelligent every time i hear words come out of her mouth. Its like she came out of sarah palin's half-brother's wife's vagina.
Ron Paul continues to beat his drum, and unlike most politicians you see these days whose opinions shift like the wind that blows through their skulls, Congressman Paul has never waivered from his views or his principles.
I consider Ron Paul to be one of the last great statesmen of our time, and he is someone who is more interested in the future of our country than his own personal political career.
It boils down to the simple pie diagram. Most of the money in this economy goes to the rich. All the work is over seas. We no get work we no can pay our bills. We no can buy all the great things we want. Throwing more money into the system doesn't help unless it can stimulate more jobs, which in turn stimulate more consumer purchasing. And on top of that we are throwing money into a never-ending war.
to me, this is all due to us having such a good market for a long time. We kept doing so well, and never saw a bad market. Now we are seeing it and while it should be expected and considered normal, so many people don't know it should happen so they want a bailout or someone to fix the problem.
Hmmm...lets'see..Evidence the NAU is coming: the decline of the dollar, the security and prosperity plan, insecurity of our borders, NAFTA, the creation of the EU and the AU (African Union)...Evidence of 1 world govt: the fed. gov. buying banks and corporations (it's not a bailout, it's corporate takeover btw), The European Central Bank, Bank of England, U.S. Federal Reserve and Swiss National Bank working in concert...watch the new Zeitgeist:Addendum..believe what you will...
No, if we followed Hoovers ideology we would have got over with the depression and bounced back pretty quickly. FDR's new deal and price controls are what prolonged the depression. It took 30 years for the stock market to come back to its originial levels. Think about that.
You're a moron. You're buying into the idiocy of our current inflationary system, probably because you're doing just fine personally, and you don't see that times are about to get really tough for most of us. Ron Paul would abolish the fed and this ridiculous system of fiat currency which is bankrupting this country, and like a true economist, promise suffering for less than a year but prosperity and most important STABILITY for the years ahead. You apparently have zero ability to think ahead.
FYI that comment was for "Ronpaulisinsane". Take a look at our national deficit or our empire abroad sometime soon - what's wrong w/ throwing power to the states and going back to a sound currency? That's "insane", but printing $800billion to bail out banks for no other reason than no one stops Bernanke from doing that is SANE?? And you think this is a sustainable economy?
Most of our federal debt is from social security, medicare, and medicaid spending. A catastrophic depression is not going to solve this.
Our debt is less than the post world war II era as a % GDP. Our federal debt decreased from 108% GDP in 1946 to 24% GDP in 1974. We even had a budget surplus in the late 1990s before Bush's tax cuts.
You don't need to destroy our economy in order to reduce inflation, interest rates, or debt.
Again, you're proving yourself to be ignorant. Our federal DEFICIT is from the globalization of our economy, which has chased out manufacturing; we now rely on other countries to produce stuff for us, like the Roman Empire. And our DEBT is from mismanagement of funds and the government turning into a bureaucratic monstrosity instead of allowing states to manage their own budgets. This country is going bankrupt and Ron Paul is one of the few out there who would help us climb out of this mess.
Uh huh, more taxes are the answer, guess you're an Obama supporter!
Our government shouldn't be allowed to run at a deficit, period - any money they get should be borrowed from the states, who are the only entities with the authority to charge any income taxes.
You are a fucking idiot... fju2112 is right, and you sir are a jack ass. Bush did in the economy huh? Bush might as well be a democrat just like the others. Ron Paul wouldn't have increased the government 40% in the last 8 years.. Bush might as well be a democrat. A few badly placed tax cuts doesn't make u republican. Anywayz, get a life and don't just make up a name to flame on Ron Paul you flaming faggot.
Federal spending has fallen as a % GDP over the last two decades. Federal spending was over 22% GDP from 1981 to 1986, over 21% from 1987 to 1994, and is now barely 20% GDP.
Bush's tax cuts reduced federal revenues to their lowest point since 1959. Federal revenues were 16.1% GDP in 2004. They were 21% GDP in 2000 and had not been below 17% GDP in 40 years.
A catastrophic depression will not solve normal problems in the budet.
I don't think arguing over one percent or half percentage points is the issue. The issue is the growing debt and the growing unfunded liabilities. (16.1% vs over 20% is a deficit of 4% of GDP) nice.
A catastrophic depression is what is going to result from the intervention. A short deep recession will shore up savings and improve the fundamentals for all Americans. And the improved fundamentals is going to lead the economy out of its current rut.
the fact is, our government altered the constitution to allow an income tax, and has run amock with the additional money, particularly after 1971. our spending levels are unauthorized and insane. our federal government was never designed to do half the things it does now. i'll take a year-long recession to bring prices down to earth over more of the same printing-press nonsense and supporting empires abroad without congress ever declaring war.
we had a false budget surplus that was based on fiat money and a huge trade deficit anyway - what good does a budget surplus do if the dollar is eventually worth nothing? even if we had a budget surplus today it wouldn't change the fact that we manage our economy via a printing press.
a "normal" adjustment would come in the form of eliminating this fiat money system and allowing the market to correct back to real levels, as well as fixing our trade deficit and going back to sound currency.
You don't need a financial collapse and catastrophic depression in order to switch from paper money to the gold standard.
What type of gold standard do you seek? Paper money tied to gold through a fixed exchange rate? That is still *fake money* with an artificial price waiting to break down.
Do you plan on using gold coins? Where are you going to find the gold for 1/2 billion Americans and Europeans?
You are changing the subject from the federal debt to the trade deficit.
You don't need a financial collapse and bad depression to deal with them.
Federal government spending declined as a %GDP over the last 20 years. That is why we had a budget surplus before Bush's tax cuts.
Our trade deficit grew in the late 1990s when we had a budget surplus. This is because it is based on foreign direct investment and this grew during our economic expansion. The US is the world's biggest exporter.
The trade deficit is much more important than the federal debt. The trade deficit is at insane levels and is partly due to "managed" free trade, plus our currency is weaker internationally and is on the brink of collapse due to both domestic and foreign economic policy.
you're using % of GDP that includes bad mortgages, economic activity generated by foreign entities which send profit abroad, etc. etc. it's not a good measure at all.
By the way, who said we "needed" a catastrophic depression? there are too many overvalued assets in our banking system that need to be liquidated; propping them up artificially ignores reality and isn't a good policy at all.
Re: gold standard, doesn't have to be just gold, can be "sound currency" though. the government has no place managing fake paper money and printing it so that you and I can pay an inflation tax. if you're okay with it, vote for one of the two candidates available.
Milton Friedman was brilliant in his own way, and he advises against this kind of rapid inflationary monetary policy. I believe Milton Friedman was for responsible gradual growth of money supply.
It has been anything but responsible and gradual in recent years.
I agree. There should be a constitutional amendment prohibiting the federal government from borrowing money. They have abused that power. I don't even trust them to limit the borrowing in times of war because they would manufacture that, too.
Some Libertarians believe we need a financial collapse to eliminate debt or *excess credit.* That is insane.
Financial collapses are catastrophic because they cause a severe contraction in the money supply.
This contraction goes far beyond a normal adjustment because the dollar you put in the bank circulates among ten people after the banks lend it out. All of that is wiped out when the bank fails.
Using a financial collapse to modify the system is like using a tidal wave for a drink.
gfg309v, yes you can eliminate debt in our current system.
Our federal debt was 108% GDP in 1946 and fell to 24% GDP in 1974. This is because our growing economy doubles in size every 30 years and inflation reduces the debt's value.
You don't use financial collapses to reduce debt. A financial collapse will devastate our economy and put us back in the Great Depression.
We borrow money that the Fed prints, which we then have to pay back with interest... We have to pay back all the money created plus MORE. How do we get more money? They print more money and more debt and more inflation.
The financial collapse is going to happen no matter what. The bailout just prolongs it considerably. It would be much better to let it happen and try to move on than making it drag out with more financial regulation and making the bubble even bigger and the eventual financial collapse more menacing than it already is.
If you are really worried about loose money, tighten the money supply gradually over the years without throwing us into a financial collapse and catastrophic depression.
Why didn't it happen for 70 years? Why didn't it happen after the 1987 stock market crash when the federal reserve restored confidence? Why didn't it happen when Sweden temporarily nationalized their banks in the 1990s?
Because a collapse and catastrophic depression is NOT inevitable.
The reason this is happening is due to the Federal Reserve's ability to create money out of thin air and loan to the government and the american people with interest. Money is created as debt and the existing money will NEVER pay it back because that money does not exist. This corrupt monetary system is to blame and it's only going to get worse if we create 700 billion dollars out of nothing to pay off debt thereby creating more debt. Do you not see the flaw in this system?
This act of creating debt and increasingly vast amounts of interest cannot and will not go on forever and lead to financial collapse by inflation. The only real solution is to rid ourselves of this central banking and fractional reserve monetary system. 700 billion dollars in newly created debt is not going to solve this problem, it will make it worse.
Our dollar has been devalued by something like 1000% since the creation of the Fed. Bailing out these people is just stealing from the taxpayers and giving to the big execs. The dollar is going to become worthless if we keep going like this, then you'll see a real financial collapse.
Yes, we can protect our financial system from major shocks with proper safegaurds.
We used to have financial panics every 20 years in the 19th century. (See my comments below)
FDIC insurance and an active central bank prevented this for 70 years.
We now need to develop fiscal policies that quarantine the finanical damage when specific industries have major adjustments. This panic grew for two years before this crisis.
Institutions develop over time. The gold std is a failed fossil.
What you may not be aware of is the international bankers who have a desired goal of imploding the U.S. Don't think for one second that this economic meltdown isnt carefully engineered by the private shareholders. Just look at their IMF and World Bank documents to understand the shadow government.
I don't consider gold a failed fossil, its the only REAL money that has lasted over 2000 years. How do you explain that? Currencies fail, gold survives everytime. Seems to me you have your facts mixed up, but I hope you enjoy your job at the bank, for now...
We can also use precious pearls for our money supply too. They have held value for thousands of years.
Everyone should base their economic policy on them. Our price level can rise and fall with their supply. We can force our economy to contract, even in a recession or bank panic, to keep the count of pearls steady.
The world tried this with gold for 150 years and rejected it. But I am sure this will work with pearls because they will always be valuable.
Sorry fightglobalpoverty but gold has been used as money for over 2000 years, not 150. You can use any commodity to back your currency but the US ran into the real problem of OVERSPENDING when we shifted OFF the gold standard. It only took 35 years to ruin the US dollar and its not a concidence that going off the gold standard in the 70's was the main culprit. Gold at least held our powers to be in check when it came to printing money.
Pearls were probably used by ancient societies also. In fact, sea shells were probably used before gold.
I am trying to measure things since the industrial revolution.
It took 70 years for us to have a financial panic. We used to have them every 20 years while on the gold standard.
Granted, we let the gold standard in the 1970s. But it was FDIC insurance and an active central bank that prevented the collapses for decades, not the gold standard.
How ironic. The people who attacked Ron Paul and suppressed his message are the very people who will suffer the most as a consequence of not having his leadership.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ron Paul is against everything, from the bailout, to civil rights laws, to criticizing other countries for human right abuses..The guy is a total clown
You notice how RON PAUL is consistent in everything he says for the most part. McCain and Obama switch too damn much. That should tell you that he is the only canidate that should be President.
Capitalism and greed is destroying our country. Thank Obama for the rebirth of socialism and power to the people. We shall overcome and the Marxist dream shall live again!!!
Our economy is not based on a true capitalist system anymore and hasn't been for a while. We have more of a semi-capitalist/socialist system. The Marxist/Communist system is not self sustainning that is why it has failed time and time again. The Communist nations that exist today such as China, Cuba, and North Korea are very poor nations. However, in the past decade China has been moving more torwards a more free market economy but they still have a ways to go.
"The Communist nations that exist today such as China, Cuba, and North Korea are very poor nations." You're not serious about lumping China with economic basket cases like Cuba and N Korea,are you? China's GNP is something like $3.2 trillion,and it's got something like 1.3 billion people living on its soil,and that tells me its GNP per head is $2500 USD, which puts it firmly in the "low middle income" group of countries,but it's certainly not poor.
No I agree with you James. Yes they are still a poor and poorly run nation but my point was that they have edged a little away from Communism but opening up there borders to trade however they still have a deeply flawed economy because of its state run system. Sadly, we are headed into the same direction.
lol Sorry James, after rereading your comment I think we do disagree. And remember that China's economy is slowing down with the rest of the world and are still far behind us.
I was just running an experiment. I ran my endorsement of socialism on some Obama videos and received positive or no comments. Ron Paul videos, a little different.
My objection with socialism isn't that it fails an economic system, although it does, but that it requires the abandonment of self ownership. And, it reduces people to mere slaves of the state. It destroys the human spirit.
Like the Beatles said "how does it feel to be one of the beautiful people" Congress thinks they are the "Beautiful people" they are all on the take. The lobbyist have got to them all like a drug addict that needs another fix, the greed is just to much temptation for them to pass up, We the people are secondary compared to their thirst for a fix, we can all go to hell as far as they are concerned, they are the elite they deserve it, "The Beautiful people"
Why are all these news stations having Ron Paul speak and seem to be interested in what he has to say? Is it because they are the media and like to have a circus show? nobody in Congress is listening to him why? He makes sense to me, Is there something that Congress is hiding perhaps? they aren't explaining or have no explanation about whats happening, except to blame it on each others party and keep America divided, its their escape plan, a cop out, and like good Americans we buy this shit.
Instead of being held in a manner consistant with life on earth, we as a herd have been pushed to the edge's of our world, literaly into the sea by our owner/masters. What's another 700 Billion gonna do you now. Wake-Up! Vote Ron Paul!!!!!!!!
People should support Ron Paul. He has my full support. He understands this country more than any of the other greedy fuckface politicians. I wish he was president.
God I wish this guy was running for president, Obama wouldn't have a chance against him. Now mainstream republicans are starting to see the error in their ways, they prefer Paul over Mccain, but their sentiment comes to late. Will America ever have another politician like Ron Paul?
I'll bet that a few ears are pricking up to what Ron Paul has to say now that thier money is vapourising.
Even up to a month ago Bernanke, paulson and co where defiant that the economy was sound, as where the so called experts that the Media presented you with, now those same experts are trying to blame the free market and lack of regulatiion.
Do you believe them now?
Hell, they didnt even see it coming, but now they appear to have anylized it and can tell you what went wrong.
$3 per Euro within 12 years or any number of years is just laughable.The credit crunch will ease by mid 2009,dollar will rise inexorably,stocks will head north,gold will tank and oil will settle at $80 per barrel. All by mid 2009.Just a fact.
There's Ron Paul, always has the easy solution for the big problems. You ever think that might be because he has absolutely no responsibility to make sure the country doesn't tank? What a waste of a representative.
Told you so..Ron Paul, the candidate with the straight goods and the best interests of the people at heart.
Too bad the American people were too stupid and brain-washed to see who their friends are...and continue to get screwed around by the Dems and the Repubs.
Write in Ron Paul on your ballot this november ...Not just because McCain and Obama are owned and operated by big buisiness but because its the right thing to do for America and your future offspring.
♥I pray for us all,know matter where your from may you and yours be blessed.May America be Blessed with Ron Paul as our next President,that's the only way America can start redeem ourselves. Our Government is not following the Constitution at all and if Obama or Mcsame get elected were screwed.This election I refuse to choose between evils. Ron Paul All the Way!! ♥¸.•*´¨`*•.¸¸.•*¨*•.¸¸.•*´¨`*• .¸♥
Yup, and the politicians raised your taxes through inflation. I hope people wake up to the fact that printing money is a direct tax on the citizens, while the politicians promise that they will not raise taxes.
We have been taxed, folks, and the people of this country will pay dearly over the next few generations. No doubt longer considering government spending habits.

It would be awesome if you would leave a comment for RON PAUL and write why you nominate him for the person of the year.
The win of this voting would give him a big push. Many more people would get to know him.

Paul is the only man in America worth listening to, and who makes sense.
He was not pushed to be front runner. As the puppet masters got scared, rumblings reported from 08 Bilderberg is they expressed their dissatisfaction with Paul, he was gaining too much support exposing them and the FED RESERVE, they realised he has MASS APPEAL with the people, as he is smart, articulate, knowledgeable, speaks truth, wants reform, knows we are all being SCREWED big time. So McCain was in.

Ron Paul likes talking about many unrelated topics.
Reporters ask him if we should let mortgage defaults lead to a financial collapse and depression.
He will talk about the federal government's debt, inflation, government regulation, capitalism, liquidating mortgage loans, too much money, etc.

what he talks about is WHY we're in the sitaution we're in and how he would fix it - very refreshing compared to some candidates. He haas stated repeatedly that he would allow a recession to happen but it would only last about a year and the market would fix prices naturally, the way it's supposed to happen, with no gov't intervention. what do you not understand about this? the rest that you mentioned are the reasons we're in the mess we're in, but you don't want to believe it apparently.

Our financial institutions were on the verge of collapsing and causing a catastrophic depression. Huge firms were toppling in one week, such as Lehman Brothers, AIG, and WAMU.
Ron Paul was irresponsible saying this would lead to a short recession. Please visit my site for more details.
Ron Paul blames everything on printing too much money. That is simplistic beyond belief. We also had bubbles, financial panics, and economic collapses under the deflationary gold standard, such as in 1890.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago
You don't listen to the specifics. Paul is VERY specific in his interviews and website on what the problems are - it's not just printing money, it's a US Gov't that has involved itself in social welfare and bailouts when it has no authority nor business to do so. Enron collapsed, affected mostly Texans, and the value of that asset went down to zero - LET THAT HAPPEN w/ other assets instead of taxing US to keep them afloat!

He proposes letting the market adjust because we can't ever blame anything on capitalism.
Our financial system would collapse and throw us into a catastrophic depression.
There aren't simple ways out of this. We need to stabilize our system so that we can make changes without destroying our economy.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago
The reason there's no simple way out of this is because government and industry are in bed together, and our Founders didn't want it that way. YOu can't deny the gov't is propping up the prices of housing in a misguided, short-term plan to "save" an industry that became overheated with bad loans - those assets need to be liquidated QUICKLY for us to get back to a healthy economy. It's common sense. And we don't have capitalism now, it's DEBTISM,partly due to government involvement in the market
fju2112 3 years ago 3
You need to have the assets liquidate in a way that does not cause our financial institutions to fail.
A financial collapse would cause a severe monetary contraction due to the massive liquidation of loans. This is because the dollar you put in a financial institution is lent out and circulated among many people.
A financial collapse would be like an atomic bomb. The Great Depression was formed due to bank panics.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago
No, it was due to government policy. Markets correct prices and things go back to normal. The reason we're in the situation we're in now is because the government is too involved in banking via the fed. Get rid of the fed and even though it would be a tough adjustment, it woudln't be nearly as bad as how the government is destroying the dollar. You're going against all common sense if you really think $700billion bailouts, even with the best intentions, are going to do any good - they won't.

There are several ways to measure the size of government. I generally use the Cost of Government as the metric - the sum of all spending, regulation, and wealth transfers.

It boils down to the simple pie diagram. Most of the money in this economy goes to the rich. All the work is over seas. We no get work we no can pay our bills. We no can buy all the great things we want. Throwing more money into the system doesn't help unless it can stimulate more jobs, which in turn stimulate more consumer purchasing. And on top of that we are throwing money into a never-ending war.

Most of our federal debt is from social security, medicare, and medicaid spending. A catastrophic depression is not going to solve this.
Our debt is less than the post world war II era as a % GDP. Our federal debt decreased from 108% GDP in 1946 to 24% GDP in 1974. We even had a budget surplus in the late 1990s before Bush's tax cuts.
You don't need to destroy our economy in order to reduce inflation, interest rates, or debt.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago
Again, you're proving yourself to be ignorant. Our federal DEFICIT is from the globalization of our economy, which has chased out manufacturing; we now rely on other countries to produce stuff for us, like the Roman Empire. And our DEBT is from mismanagement of funds and the government turning into a bureaucratic monstrosity instead of allowing states to manage their own budgets. This country is going bankrupt and Ron Paul is one of the few out there who would help us climb out of this mess.
fju2112 3 years ago
The federal deficit is due to Bush's tax cuts.
Our federal spending in 2005 was less than the 1980s and first half of the 1990s as a % GDP.
Bush's tax cuts reduced federal revenues from 21% in 2000 to 16% in 2004. This converted our budget surplus into a deficit.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago

Please refer to the facts.
Federal spending has fallen as a % GDP over the last two decades. Federal spending was over 22% GDP from 1981 to 1986, over 21% from 1987 to 1994, and is now barely 20% GDP.
Bush's tax cuts reduced federal revenues to their lowest point since 1959. Federal revenues were 16.1% GDP in 2004. They were 21% GDP in 2000 and had not been below 17% GDP in 40 years.
A catastrophic depression will not solve normal problems in the budet.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago
I don't think arguing over one percent or half percentage points is the issue. The issue is the growing debt and the growing unfunded liabilities. (16.1% vs over 20% is a deficit of 4% of GDP) nice.
A catastrophic depression is what is going to result from the intervention. A short deep recession will shore up savings and improve the fundamentals for all Americans. And the improved fundamentals is going to lead the economy out of its current rut.
Anything else is "insane."

the fact is, our government altered the constitution to allow an income tax, and has run amock with the additional money, particularly after 1971. our spending levels are unauthorized and insane. our federal government was never designed to do half the things it does now. i'll take a year-long recession to bring prices down to earth over more of the same printing-press nonsense and supporting empires abroad without congress ever declaring war.

You do not need a financial collapse and catastrophic depression to solve normal problems with the budget.
Federal government spending fell from 23.5% GDP in 1983 to 19.9% GDP in 2004. We even had a budget surplus before Bush's tax cuts.
My site emphasizes that we needed to take strong action to prevent this crisis from causing a massive financial collapse.
Ron Paul supporters are still confusing a catastrophic collapse with a normal market adjustment.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago
we had a false budget surplus that was based on fiat money and a huge trade deficit anyway - what good does a budget surplus do if the dollar is eventually worth nothing? even if we had a budget surplus today it wouldn't change the fact that we manage our economy via a printing press.
a "normal" adjustment would come in the form of eliminating this fiat money system and allowing the market to correct back to real levels, as well as fixing our trade deficit and going back to sound currency.
fju2112 3 years ago
You don't need a financial collapse and catastrophic depression in order to switch from paper money to the gold standard.
What type of gold standard do you seek? Paper money tied to gold through a fixed exchange rate? That is still *fake money* with an artificial price waiting to break down.
Do you plan on using gold coins? Where are you going to find the gold for 1/2 billion Americans and Europeans?

gold price always adjusts to real value. If there aren't enough gold coins, the real value of the coin goes up. It's a perfect medium of exchange.

You are changing the subject from the federal debt to the trade deficit.
You don't need a financial collapse and bad depression to deal with them.
Federal government spending declined as a %GDP over the last 20 years. That is why we had a budget surplus before Bush's tax cuts.
Our trade deficit grew in the late 1990s when we had a budget surplus. This is because it is based on foreign direct investment and this grew during our economic expansion. The US is the world's biggest exporter.
RonPaulisInsane 3 years ago
The trade deficit is much more important than the federal debt. The trade deficit is at insane levels and is partly due to "managed" free trade, plus our currency is weaker internationally and is on the brink of collapse due to both domestic and foreign economic policy.
you're using % of GDP that includes bad mortgages, economic activity generated by foreign entities which send profit abroad, etc. etc. it's not a good measure at all.
fju2112 3 years ago
By the way, who said we "needed" a catastrophic depression? there are too many overvalued assets in our banking system that need to be liquidated; propping them up artificially ignores reality and isn't a good policy at all.

Some Libertarians believe we need a financial collapse to eliminate debt or *excess credit.* That is insane.
Financial collapses are catastrophic because they cause a severe contraction in the money supply.
This contraction goes far beyond a normal adjustment because the dollar you put in the bank circulates among ten people after the banks lend it out. All of that is wiped out when the bank fails.
Using a financial collapse to modify the system is like using a tidal wave for a drink.

If you are really worried about loose money, tighten the money supply gradually over the years without throwing us into a financial collapse and catastrophic depression.
Why didn't it happen for 70 years? Why didn't it happen after the 1987 stock market crash when the federal reserve restored confidence? Why didn't it happen when Sweden temporarily nationalized their banks in the 1990s?
Because a collapse and catastrophic depression is NOT inevitable.
FightGlobalPoverty 3 years ago
The reason this is happening is due to the Federal Reserve's ability to create money out of thin air and loan to the government and the american people with interest. Money is created as debt and the existing money will NEVER pay it back because that money does not exist. This corrupt monetary system is to blame and it's only going to get worse if we create 700 billion dollars out of nothing to pay off debt thereby creating more debt. Do you not see the flaw in this system?
rmwhite1369 3 years ago
This act of creating debt and increasingly vast amounts of interest cannot and will not go on forever and lead to financial collapse by inflation. The only real solution is to rid ourselves of this central banking and fractional reserve monetary system. 700 billion dollars in newly created debt is not going to solve this problem, it will make it worse.

We can also use precious pearls for our money supply too. They have held value for thousands of years.
Everyone should base their economic policy on them. Our price level can rise and fall with their supply. We can force our economy to contract, even in a recession or bank panic, to keep the count of pearls steady.
The world tried this with gold for 150 years and rejected it. But I am sure this will work with pearls because they will always be valuable.
FightGlobalPoverty 3 years ago
Sorry fightglobalpoverty but gold has been used as money for over 2000 years, not 150. You can use any commodity to back your currency but the US ran into the real problem of OVERSPENDING when we shifted OFF the gold standard. It only took 35 years to ruin the US dollar and its not a concidence that going off the gold standard in the 70's was the main culprit. Gold at least held our powers to be in check when it came to printing money.
controlpopulation 3 years ago
Pearls were probably used by ancient societies also. In fact, sea shells were probably used before gold.
I am trying to measure things since the industrial revolution.
It took 70 years for us to have a financial panic. We used to have them every 20 years while on the gold standard.
Granted, we let the gold standard in the 1970s. But it was FDIC insurance and an active central bank that prevented the collapses for decades, not the gold standard.

Why are all these news stations having Ron Paul speak and seem to be interested in what he has to say? Is it because they are the media and like to have a circus show? nobody in Congress is listening to him why? He makes sense to me, Is there something that Congress is hiding perhaps? they aren't explaining or have no explanation about whats happening, except to blame it on each others party and keep America divided, its their escape plan, a cop out, and like good Americans we buy this shit.

People should support Ron Paul. He has my full support. He understands this country more than any of the other greedy fuckface politicians. I wish he was president.

well, he's right so far: the bill to bailout wall street has been passed and the stock market continues to go down.

God I wish this guy was running for president, Obama wouldn't have a chance against him. Now mainstream republicans are starting to see the error in their ways, they prefer Paul over Mccain, but their sentiment comes to late. Will America ever have another politician like Ron Paul?

I'll bet that a few ears are pricking up to what Ron Paul has to say now that thier money is vapourising.
Even up to a month ago Bernanke, paulson and co where defiant that the economy was sound, as where the so called experts that the Media presented you with, now those same experts are trying to blame the free market and lack of regulatiion.
Do you believe them now?
Hell, they didnt even see it coming, but now they appear to have anylized it and can tell you what went wrong.
Hmmmm?

$3 per Euro within 12 years or any number of years is just laughable.The credit crunch will ease by mid 2009,dollar will rise inexorably,stocks will head north,gold will tank and oil will settle at $80 per barrel. All by mid 2009.Just a fact.

There's Ron Paul, always has the easy solution for the big problems. You ever think that might be because he has absolutely no responsibility to make sure the country doesn't tank? What a waste of a representative.

Told you so..Ron Paul, the candidate with the straight goods and the best interests of the people at heart.
Too bad the American people were too stupid and brain-washed to see who their friends are...and continue to get screwed around by the Dems and the Repubs.
Vote 3rd party!

Write in Ron Paul on your ballot this november ...Not just because McCain and Obama are owned and operated by big buisiness but because its the right thing to do for America and your future offspring.

After the add-ons it was 850 billion but that's only half of what they sneaked in while we were busy with the bailout.
Truth is the damn government needed 2 tril and figured they'd get the taxpayers to split it with them.
That's the real friggin story.

Yup, and the politicians raised your taxes through inflation. I hope people wake up to the fact that printing money is a direct tax on the citizens, while the politicians promise that they will not raise taxes.
We have been taxed, folks, and the people of this country will pay dearly over the next few generations. No doubt longer considering government spending habits.
