Ron Paul talks about subprime, liquidity, and the Fed (1/2)

Regulate Regulate Regulate

The open markets with no restrictions that Ron Paul advocates is disastrous and this is why libertarian policies have NEVER been implemented anywhere in the world EVER

Under a Ron Paul free market things like the sub-prime loan scam would be commonplace in all markets Free market capitalism is a rich mans dream and would only suppress the poor even more Other than that I guess Paul is ok minus his racial slurs and backing from the racist heritage foundation

This current disaster pretty much proves you completely wrong.

[tommytowne]

You mean completely right. Did you bother reading what I wrote. Are you under the impession I wasnt mentioning the current disaster.

Ha Ha Ha Ha

I guess you only pay attention after the shit hits the fan.

[bartj777]

I bothered to read the news, which you haven't. Freddie and Fannie hold half a trillion in Alt-A mortgages, which resulted from when the government pressured them to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people. If credit was left to the open market, it would have been limited in supply, giving lenders more incentive to make sure the mortgagees were more creditworthy. BTW, Fannie and Freddie are government-subsidized corporations. Free markets are the problem? Hardly.

"If credit was left to the open market"

This open market you dream about is non existent. It exists absolutely no where on the planet.

I hate to break it to you but the majority of Americans don't care if they get reamed in the ass with a samauri sword as long as they get their iPhones and 25 inch wheels on their cars. America has become a nation of cattle. The smart people on on Youtube and Internet forums are only a small fraction of the American population.

This is what kills me, the man is so astute on monetary/economics while the others know nothing other then saying what others tell them say. People need to realize how brilliant this man is & how much benefit will come from his election. The ignorant amongst the masses are the majority of the population & their opinion is molded by MainStreamMedia. We face educating a lot of the nation as those who are in power like them to be ignorant and gullible

[DefendThyself]

Vote For Ron Paul 2008!

I can't imagine this conversation happening with Bush.

[UnhealthySalad]

I love Al Korelin!

[digitalslavery]

I encourage everyone to participate in the organized boycotts and strikes that will show our corupted corporate controled government that we the people can no longer be ruled under the Bush dictatorship. Think about it, Real ID, the Patriot Act, Iraq's WMD lies and Haliburton. Vote Ron Paul!

[civusamericanus]

Let's make 2007 a monumental year, by showing the world that the mainstream media's back is broken! The fight has just begun and now we must NOW persevere our Republic! Vote for the Doctor of Liberty "Ron Paul"!
