Ron Paul's Bill: US behind financial Iron Curtain?

[undertake782]

This will ruin the U.S.D......

[mutley2209]

nothing new, been doing it here in the UK for years, tends to be popular in tourist destinations so people have to exchange sterling for local currency and spend it there, more money comes in

[sandymclaughlin]

nearly ALL midwestern communities, of which I know, have used scrip for years and years! at Christmas time and for fundraisers and to promote keeping local businesses alive.

[williamwagener]

Its happening. Dollar will be obsolete, if it is NOT PUT BACK

on the GOLD STANDARD. with Real GOLD.

[coturnix19]

@williamwagener putting stuff back no real gold standard would mean dollar will be no more. On gold standard, money names are just monikers. And dollar would be exacltly equal to drahma or rubles...

[williamwagener]

@coturnix19 NOT EXACTLY, the Original U.S. Dollar, was about 1 oz silver piece,

going BACK on Silver and Gold would merely TERMINATE the power of the InterNational BAnkGangsters to create fiat money and buy our Legislators with it.

and restore stability of prices and wages with honest money , i.e. gold and silver.

[shadowcodehacker]

no one with dual citizenship should be in congress or our government agencies...the state department are filled with pro israel and pro war hawks...time to kick those bastards out...government should be controlled by americans only!!!

[InKa4484]

I don't think nationality matters, i think we should elect our representatives to represent our beliefs, not blind patriotism, or a coorporate interest, or a growing israeli empire. The 2 party system should be abolished. Then again what do i know i'm a dual citizen.

[grengerx]

With their controls of ALL media outlets there isn`t a chance to recover the republic

[pharaoh337]

@shadowcodehacker. Is being pro-Israel a problem? Doing what the USA is doing right now doesn't seem to be helping Israel. Wouldn't Israel benefit from America getting the hell out of the middle east?(and no longer subsidizing it's enemies) I think it would, cause I tend to trust Ron Paul.

Looks like the neo-cons and progressives are endangering America as well as Israel.

[undertake782]

@shadowcodehacker FINALLY SOMEONE WHO KNOWS! 

[sps081208]

Attorney General: Andrew Napolitano

[sps081208]

president :ron paul

vice president: dennis Kucinich

Defense secretary:Jesse Ventura

Secretary of state: Bill Maher(without the comedian personality)

Treasury secretary:Peter Schiff

Press Secretary:ALex Jones

[Akillesblood]

What about Rand Paul or Senator Sanders or Ralph Nader all these individuals that did not get their shot!!!!

[sps081208]

well , they would be great in someway or another being cabinet members, but i think they would be much more effective in the senate.

[wachman]

i would also go for Michael Badnarik for President, Allen West Defense Secretary, and we can probably fit Marco Rubio in there somewhere lol.

there are a whole mess of great people like that, that nobody's ever heard of. look up the Continental Congress 2009. most important event this year. or ANY year. check. it. out.

[queerbuzz]

Israel did 9/11.

Google: 911missinglinks

[hoghead571]

I agree with yakyakyak69

[yakyakyak69]

FIX the Republican party that the Regressive NeoCons destroyed.

Bring back Individual liberty, personal responsibility, limited Federal Gov't, Sound money, competition between the Free States & competition among the FREE people.

NO MORE: Nation Building, Foreign Intervention, 700+ US military bases occupying almost EVERY nation on the planet PRODUCING resistance fighters!

NO Isolationism (trade not tamper) & keep the giant corporations OUT of the people's pockets by ending Corporatism.

[NABegley]

Amen. Ron Paul.

[cnxtrans]

I thought Ron Paul just wanted to legalize silver deposits like in Mexico

[averageworkinggal]

"We the People" decided what legal tender is.

That's not a 'monopoly.'

It's called Congress.

Congress has the constitutional power to define what the national currency is and did.

This kook currency movement is part of Ron Paul's Campaign for Lunacy.

It's not a mainstream issue and it's not a big issue.

It's not on the financial radar screen.

It's just a side issue pushed by extremists.

[daderone]

nailed it

[JaminHell]

everyone google it: BerkShares

there currency is cool looking and its in Mass. (here in America run by the locals)

[shiffty1032231]

All of us patriotic Americans who believe in sound money and getting ourselves out of the manufactured New World Order tyranny thats coming down on us needs to get behind this bill and demand our congressmen to back it.

[averageworkinggal]

@shiffty1032231 - patriotic Americans are not NWO Conspiracy crackpots like you.

[shiffty1032231]

Whatever. We both want the same thing; liberty and free markets.

[averageworkinggal]

@shiffty1032231 - But "Liberty and the Free Market" doesn't function with "everybody and his brother's currency."

The Constitution blocks the several states from defining their own currencies in favor of the national currency defined by Congress to avoid the chaos that would undermine "Liberty and the Free Market."

[fortsmith1]

I never heard Ron say he wanted foreign currencies. I think he meant domestic coining for competition.

[silversobe]

The U.S dollar is backed by nothing. Its just paper.

[eliasmouawad]

Search for "CIA NEW FIASCO"

[corvetteseeker]

Is this about HR 1207 or another bill?

[anamericanstory]

OMG, Where is this?

[Flankymanga]

The days of dollar are comming to an end.....

[soit25]

stop xchange roubles for fake currencies like usd or eur --- it enslaves ppl within Russia and help the fed/illuminazi in US.

Putin understands it, but he's surely the puppet of judo-masons running this globe with the help of their xternal masters.

that's it. i\m a nutjob now, u can laugh at me now.

[Tressco]

Danger!

Chance for bank holiday ahead...!

[RomanicusMaximus]

Rubles? HAHAHA. This ain't the Warshaw pact, moron. You Russians are so far fetched to many people out there. Russians are the biggest buffons of all times, and your media RT is the clown. LOL

[Htogrom]

When you enter Moscow metro, can't hear a fly, all people sit and read books. Russian ordinary people are more educated than your politicians.

[Djelomou]

Russian tourists are among the worst in the world unfortunately. mabe they only behave in the metro :)

I have nothing against Russia by the way on the opposite but let's avoid those US vs Russia statements. The US are fucking up the whole world there is nothing more to say

[breadeaterfrompl]

it's truth, eta pravda

[601373]

If ordinary Russians were more intelligent than American politicians - not that I am defending our politicians- then the whole Soviet Union thing wouldn't have happened.

Are they reading books of substance? Ayn Rand, Mises, Hayeck etc? Or are they reading books which help them escape the drudgery of living in a country which has still not embraced individual rights and free markets?

[Htogrom]

Ha ha ha. I always laugh when I see such common neo liberal phrases as free market, human rights and buying large.

Free market means that YOU Americans can come and compete with domestic industry, in other words destroy it. But on the other hand you don't put the same principles in US. Lands like Brazil and India are clear example of your free market hypocrisy.

The thing in SSSR was carried by the same agenda that give you that stupid neo liberal phrases.

[Flankymanga]

Romanian that escaped to USA is saying this? You know i think its good that all this retarded people escaped to USA - this way atleast they wont infect the rest with their idiotic thinking. This world is not about russia, this world is about USA and ITS wrong-doings. Ofcourse you will say blah blah us is fine blah blah US wants good blah blah... you know what? Keep this US shit to yourself coz nobody will ever believe that here in rest of the modern world.

[Htogrom]

Romania, gypsy land

אתה טועה, חבר. כמו תמיד אתה

[grahamkeithtodd]

no quite true about the UK allowing "Private Currencies" in use..there are however Scotish and Northen Irland banks who print their OWN bank notes how ever these are not legal tender in England! to use them you HAVE to take them to a bank in the UK and change them for Bank Of England notes!

[cas111498]

which starbucks are you going to babe?

[RomanicusMaximus]

@cas111498 Yeah, sure, the russian one, serving plutonium for a change, go meet that dude who got bold.

[MaxZagar]

This is not so unusual. As an example in Helsinki you have been able to pay at several shops with multiple currencies, even in part, for maybe 15 years. The shop owner just need to update the cash machine. It's quite a good service for tourists btw.

[OrphanPaper]

i am commenting

[ZeeGooner]

RT must piss the living shit out of American Banks and Oligarchs lol.

[jasonfulton]

the gold and silver coins were used in this country untill the early 1900s it worked,the govt got greedy

[eternalduty]

What is going to be of value when the paper money system crashes?

Real things like land,soil,seeds,water,mill etc where you can actual make things of value, that was the whole purpose of money, so you don't have to exchange a fish for a loaf of bread, go back to the old ways and carry just enough money to pay bills, the rest invest it in real things!!

Good Luck!!

[packleader87]

They don't talk bad about people in their topics, they don't fool around (much), and they bring alternative researchers on their broadcasting. THIS NEWS NETWORK IS GREAT!

[peepeevagi]

Just a big mess.

Where are they gonna get the gold?

Buy more with the uberinflated money?

Dam it Ron Paul.

[Gunnarsguns]

See the y tube vid...`` fixing the money system....very good vid about this subject.

[chingon711]

A roll of toilet paper is worth more than the American dollar....I haven't done it myself but the best proactive move in my opinion is to convert your money into Euros, or anything else except for the US dollar...Waiting for the last minute to act is not a good idea.

[doobsta]

that is some sound advice...I prefer metals myself since I am of the belief that all other currencies will be de-valued aswell.

Be smart and GTFO of the USD before its a stampede for the exit.

[jasonfulton]

I agree

[jasonfulton]

fuck the euro

[Flankymanga]

dude what euro did to you? is it bad that we in europe want financial stability or are you getting jealous or what?

[NosceTeIpsum9]

What about not having a money system and learning to share what the earth has given us. We shouldn't have to pay to live on a planet we were born on or for the water that the earth produces, or the energy, etc. There should not be any country that has more food than the other, more shelter than the other, we are overindulging ourselves with greed and finally we will see the the system fail because it's not the way it's supposed to be.

[mrzack888]

wow, you'd think Ron Paul was a globalist. cut off the head to spite the nose.

[UtherPendragan]

The American dollar is not backed by anything except the good faith and credit of the American taxpayer. Most Americans have lost faith in the system, and have no credit.

[davidshaz20000]

American dollar is backed only by Arab Oil....if Arabs donnot back US $ whole US Dollar and US Economy will collapse that is what saddam was doing and He pay the price by getting Hanged!

[johnedwards1968]

That's the way all currencies are. Gold is only useful ( as a currency) if it has an accepted value as a credit. If not, it's only a bartering item.

To pretend otherwise is laughable.

[consciousnessdialoge]

Properly R. Paul's idea is to start to use gold not ruble.

[Joel0277]

which currency is ruble i heard the term b4 can u remind me ? forgive my ignorance.

[grahamkeithtodd]

joe10277 old son the Ruble is the currency of Russia!

[cerritoboy]

Man America is turning into another Zimbabwe!

[BITARTEN]

worrying situation for US Dolar.
