  • RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT 2012 ! ! ! ! ! !

  • I didn't think to look up RP in these videos. I've never seen these before. <3

  • can we steel ron paul and get him to run for the UK pm

  • End compound interest. gg

  • @Anydg904 and who does it help but the banks? they take our tax dollars and loan it to banks that give literally billions to CEOs as bonuses - and they take our money INTEREST FREE so we just pay income tax for them to give themselves a big pat on the back with million dollar bills, then they charge us 30 percent after taking our money interest FREE, then foreclose on homes and kick families out on the street to be homeless

  • End the Federal Reserve? The Federal Reserve is the 1% percent we are talking about people, not the "rich" who earn their money.The Federal Reserve is private company that killed the dollar by flooding the market with money( which causes inflation). You can't just print cash like it's going out of style! WANT TO OCCUPY? OCCUPY RON PAUL'S CHECKBOX AT THE 2012 ELECTION PEOPLE!!!!  - Occupy

  • I don't think people understand.. Ron Paul isn't against the Fed in particular.. he's against CENTRAL BANKING.

  • I like Ron Paul because he is honest and he isn't the same ole guy who is in our Congress, he's different. But, I disagree with him on this one topic. Ending the Fed I think would hurt the economy more than it would help it. By printing more money, banks loan more money, which increases the aggregate demand within the economy. And banks earn interest on the money paid back, which in essence they loan back out to keep demand increasing. That's why in 2008, the Fed flooded the market with money

  • where it says "one dollar" on my bills, im filling in the word "fiat"

  • I love and support you, Ron Paul! You are by far the most electable candidate if you were to be put up against Obama--when you try to debate with Dr. Paul, you will lose every time! He is very honest, intelligent, and consistent.

    Ron Paul for President!

  • We will NEVER NEVER NEVER give up the quest for truth and LIBERTY! They can kill many of us but they cannot kill an idea whose time has come. END THE FED. Restore the constitution.

  • Ron Paul to lead a peaceful Revolution before the dollar crashes and before the 99% bbecomes crushed under the oppression of the 1%. We must Ocupy the White House and end the fed

  • The banksters are taking over in europe and the US.

    We the people of the world must stand up and put an end to their arcane schemes. Who wants a world government? Not me, we can't even run little countries correctly now banksters want a global government? Good God there will be no escape from them!

  • @ApocalypseTheory The irs has pretty much appointed themselves that title. The tax payer doesnt have to pay into the federal income tax.

  • NEW VIDEO w/Chris Savvinidis watch?v=THwFXYor5Qs

  • How about instead of having large private banks like Goldman Sachs and the Federal reserve responsible for our nation's finance, why not have a democratically elected fourth branch of government, a Financial branch, created by, for, and answerable to the tax payer?

  • The FED has been going since 1913. For crying out loud I bet it will never end.

  • Us Michiganders are ready for a revolution.. who's with us?!?

  • =)

  • THE FED, CREATED IN 1913 BY FINANCIAL INVESTORS IN A CLUB OFF THE COAST OF GEORGIA FOR THE OWN INTERESTS, END THEM NOW, PLEASE!

  • What a great speech

  • i believe in central banking..... IF IM THE BOSS! :D

  • If not for Bernacke and the Fed, 90% of you people would be living in poverty now.

  • Herman Cain and the 999 plan. Get on board....

  • @Andreas748

    ya as if we didn't have enough taxes already, he wants to add sales tax in addition to existing tax. ron paul wants to end irs, end income tax, and end inflation tax created by printing money

  • @Andreas748

    herman cain is a liar.no thanks.

  • RON PAUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ron Paul needs more media coverage a lot of people don't know who this guy is.

  • RON PAUL has never voted to raise taxes.

    He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.

    He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.

    He has never voted to raise congressional pay.

    He has never voted to increase the power of the execuctive branch.

    He voted against the Patriot Act.

    He voted against the Iraq War.

    He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. Treasury every year.

    Ron Paul wants to end the FED #OccupyTheFed

    Copy/paste at will

  • VIVA LA REVOLUTIONNNNNNNN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • If the american people wake up and we fight the world bank elite and drop the FED I bet the banks are going to pay other countries to go to war with us, or set us up to attack someone else by setting off a nuclear bomb in our country. This is my prediction for WW3

  • @slfemp other countries knows what is going on about the Fed as well.

    FUCK BEN BERNANKE

    FUCK ALL BANKSTERS

    AND FUCK THE FED AND I HOPE ALL NWO PUPPETS GO TO HELL!!! >:(

  • @slfemp They have their tentacles in China, Brazil, India, and obviously all of Europe. So yeah, they could manipulate just about any government to enforce what they want.

  • I love Ron Paul. He's like the cute grandpa I never had. And he's completely right about most political issues.

  • Major ROn Paul fan here - I am so concerned that the Ron Paul bashing is getting to me .I am afraid too many people are listening to this constant trashing and will buy into it.I'm old- I don;t do Facebook.I had my son check the other day - Ron has about a half million facebook friends, Obama has 22 mil! People buy into this crap so if U have facebook, be a friend to Ron Paul. Let's get him up to a million today !

  • @doogleandalix You also need to realize that the 22 million come from people all over the world, that do not know any better and listen to anything the media tells them and still have the illusion that Obama is this revolutionary candidate after the Bush era. I would take that half million of Ron Paul and put it up against the 22 million of Obama in a challenge of intelligence and believe me, the Ron Paul supporters would destroy the Obama supporters on every issue of substance. More are awake!

  • @vincentca2004 You are preaching to the choir here - lol. Good point about the global "likes" .There's a great video on YT about Ron Paul voters in FL v. Obama supporters - it's hilarious , from 2008 election, Most who "supported " Obama knew zero about his policies and where he stood on a single issue - the reasons varied from " for change " " because it would be cool to have a black president " or " he's kind of cute " - absoultely pitiful.

  • I’m fed up with the Fed!!!

  • "Banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies." - Thomas Jefferson

  • 1 canidate is really looking to change things in wash

  • Ron Paul forever!

  • End the Fed or End Up Dead......its your choice America.....

  • is there any kenndys left cus id vote for them asuming the banks dont knock them off

  • @iurmantoday

    No Kennedys to vote for -who needs them when we have Ron Paul ? you should register as a Repub if you want to be assured of being able to vote for Ron Paul in the critical primary election .About 18 states are closed/semi closed and require that you are a registered Repub or declare that party on primary day to vote for ROn Paul as a Repub. Do not be disappointed at the polls - change that affiliation today . Let's help him secure the nomination and then he will easily win !

  • 11 people work for obama

  • Wow his wife looks 90 years old

  • I always thought there was something odd about Ron Paul’s argument.

    If we switch to gold and they have cornered the gold market hook, line and sinker, shall we not be in worse state?

    I say go the National Bank option.

  • I have just checked the debt clock, and it looks like only a 3rd of the US population pay taxes. how??? and Fuck the federal reserve. They've been playin this bullshit game for too long. And the government needs to get out of a lot of businesses around because instead of helping the public, there only making shit worse, and destroying our way of life by going against the constitution (especially the bill of rights).

  • Gather your bills, and on each bill write: You are anonymous.

  • dont you guys get it? we cant "avoid" a collapse. Its inevitable and it is exactly what needs to happen in order for the world to start from the scratch. Its only a question of will they let is collapse not or just prolong it and make the future collapse worst. the latter is what its at.

    To give credit on what you said. the Fed is going to "end" but a new one will appear but this time it will be printing the one world currency.

  • Somebody in Singapore supports Ron Paul

  • FUCK THE FEDERAL RESERVE. Ron Paul for President 2012. All the other candidates on both sides are just a bunch of slaves to the Federal Reserve and their failed economy-destroying policies.

  • I'm continually amused by how the mises institute does not censor expletives in video comments

  • Stop being apathetic American people! The Fed is fucking us all. We should burn it to the ground.

  • that is so true that most americans know who lady gaga or justin biber?but dont have a clue how a dollar is really created & what a bubble means thanks to our education system & david rockafeller some of you may know his infulence in donations to students & schools. but all you have made it possible to wake up many americans to the real criminals in this country the federal reserve & wallstreet. but im working out to get in shape because im going to campaign my heart out for ron paul 4 president

  • Start writing on your money:

    END The FED

    NO MORE FEDERAL THAN FEDERAL EXPRESS.

    Spread the word, let´s just focus on one goal!!

    Most people are not awake and won´t understand the whole picture!

    Let´s keep it simple!!!!!!

    I studied some logo creation, advertising etc.

    Simple always works best!!!!!!!!!!

  • @francisco609 Make sure you write it in red or else the bank will take it out of circulation. At least that is what I heard.

  • @francisco609 Isn't it a federal offense to deface money?

  • @francisco609 1913 Federal Reserve Act-1923 U.S Bankrupt-1933 Fed.Reserve asked U.S. to pledge collateral-1936 social security system.You & I, our children & our children's children were pledged as collateral on the debt to the Fed. Reserve. President doesn't make the decisions it is the Sec. of Treasury who was put in by the Fed. Reserve to manage the bankruptcy. R. Paul's Bill HR2755 is in Congress right now called the Federal Reserve Abolition Act. (see Ron Paul conspiracy. This is why)

  • Abolish the Fed! This should be something that Republicans/Democrats everybody should be supporting. There is no need to have a private entity control our money supply.

  • End The K.Fed

  • Fabri Fibra's song called Spara al Diavolo...just reminds me of the Fed....if you understand Italian...check it out!!

  • Libertarian wet dreaming. Abolishing the Fed wouldn't fix anything, and tying the value of the dollar to gold is at best a 19th century premise. We need to reform the Fed, yes, but abolishing it is the type of fringe Libertarianism that will never attract mainstream voters, thus keeping Ron Paul on the outside looking in for the rest of his life, sadly.

  • im in college. you influenced me.

  • If i think about the whole thing, it´s absolute unbelieveable that this criminal construct celebrates the 100 year jubilee in 2013.

    If you destroy the FED, a new time of freedom and humanity can start over the whole planet.

    Greetings from Germany, the still occupied country with FED-puppets in his illegal government, and without a valid constitution.

  • A dollar bill isn't really liquid currency. It's really a sort of corporate bond, the Fed being the corporation. If we were expected to accept Enron or Halliburton bonds as legal tender for all transactions, people would be pissed. The fed is far nastier

  • the more I find out about the Fed the more angry it makes me!!

    End the Fed!!!

  • @silvercelli

    you are doing Satan's work due to your ignorance. Before you go thinking you are following jesus, you should know who you choose to overlook.

  • Ron kicks ass!

  • Too bad the big bad richie rich rulers of the world will never let this guy get anywhere in the polls.

  • TheBIG question that has tobe asked is"WHAT IS MONEY'and the Majority of people really don’t know!One of the easiest,and best videos ever made about“WHAT IS MONEY”can be found, now add the W’s: youtube.com/watch?v=EtF_zbI5j7­M&feature=channel_video_title

    America; the biggest fraud, ponzi scam, swindle, in the history of mankind,is being perpetrated against an intelligent people.Either our politicians are ignorant of this fraud, or they are a part of this fraud?This is a Major down fall of Americ

  • THIS MAN IS THE TRUTH! Black people, white people, asian, hispanic people lets STOP THE BULLSHIT and get this man in office!!

    I'm so inspired to change my major to politics

  • Ron Paul Debate Day Money Bomb!!! May 5, 2011

  • @weetoy69 you need to understand the difference between the MARKET and the ECONOMY. economy is the exchange of goods and services, the market is the stock market. yes, it would probably reck havoc on the stock market. All the Fed does is protect the stock market at the EXPENSE of the economy. We need to return to favoring the economy, thus people, over the market which produces nothing but debt, inflation, and bubbles.

  • @wetoy69 the sooner we fix it the better off we'll be. You think inflation is bad now? Just wait.

  • RON PAUL WILL MAKE YOU POOR! ASK TWO QUESTIONS . IF THEY AUDIIT THE FED , WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN TO OUR ECONOMY ? DOES RON PAUL HAVE A PLAN TO PROTECT YOUR MONEY WHEN THEY AUDIT THE FED AND FIND OUT THERE IS NOTHING LEFT IN OUR RESERVES ? HIS HALF THOUGHT OUT PLAN IS TOTAL COLLAPSE OF OUR ECONOMY . PAPER MONEY WILL BE WORTHLESS . THE FED IS A BEAST . THEY WILL TAKE AMERICA DOWN IF RON PAUL GETS HIS WAY . ITS A HALF THOUGHT OUT PLAN BY RON PAUL . THINK ABOUT WHAT IF ? YOU WILL BE POOR !

  • @weetoy69 First, if they find nothing is left in our reserves, it would not cause a collapse. The dollar is not backed by gold to begin with, so why would it make a difference? The audit is to see the Fed's actions because they don't have to reveal them publically. Second, Paul's plan is free market money/competing currencies. Mints, banks, and companies could create currencies which would compete in the market to our advantage. I suggest you read Austrian economics before you comment.

  • @ZerogunRivale

    The FED is not the only problem, the big banks will still be around and their ability to expand and contract the money supply.

  • @se7ensnakes And how would they do that? Big banks do not have printing presses. They cannot expand and contract money supplies, they can only lend out whatever reserves they have. And under a free market/competing currency system, if a big bank expands its money supply, then everyone could jump ship to another currency and that currency would die, which would force even the most corrupt banks to keep their supply in check. Competition would keep banks from getting out of hand.

  • @ZerogunRivale You are misinformed. Let me clear something. I am with you that the USA is in trouble with Private banks controlling the economy. Here is a bit of education: The Federal Reserve only introduces the M0 money supply, the private banks introduce the M1, m2, m3 Money supply. The economy cannot function with just the M0 and M1 money supply.  It will fall. So with that knowledge the private banks, with the help of the FED contract and expand the money supply. How? I will explain

  • @ZerogunRivale

    The big banks use the FRACTIONAL RESERVE BANKING scheme to expand the money supply. This means that while on the books they are telling you that there is 100,000 FRNs in your account, they are loaning those FRNs to buy a house. Then the people that sold the house rush and deposit the money back in the bank for an increase of money in the overall money supply. Without this credit expansion of money the economy goes bad, AND THE BANKS KNOW THIS WELL!

  • @ZerogunRivale About 97% of the money supply exist as a digital entry in some bank bookeeping program.

  • @ZerogunRivale

    big commercial banks do have a printing presses, it is called FRACTIONAL RESERVE BANKING. The investment bankers short stocks. There are many schemes to expand the volume of money in circulation. Just look at the money aggregates. My point is that If you want to kill the FED and kill it for good so it wont come back, make FRACTIONAL RESERVE BANKING ILLEGAL. Also any scheme that creates money, other than the government, should end. Learn from history,

  • @weetoy69 Re-institute Executive order 11110 simple.

  • @weetoy69 and YOU my friend are EXACTLY how "they" want us to think. Your thinking is a disease. You should try educating yourself a little more on the topic and you'll understand that 25 minute video a little better.

  • @weetoy69

    I agree. To take on the FED you need to watch out for economic terrorism. The bankers could deliberately collapse the economy. Also the gold standard caused some problems in the latter part of the 19th Century.

  • It's a great book written after a lifetime of reading serious economic literature...!

  • @UBSCARED Since macro trends prior to the mid 20th century are, for the most part, historic speculation, any comparison should be taken with a grain of salt. Anyways, using data from "Contours of the World Economy, 1–2003 AD" by Angus Maddison, I calculated a 9.9 % per anum positive deviation in PPP adjusted GDP for the years 1870-1913 and a 4.9 % per anum positive deviation for the years 1913-1950. The time intervals aren't the same, but it doesn't matter.

  • @silvercelli The Lords work is to take care of the needy. Jesus said what you did for the least of me is what you did for me. You are just uneducated on the current monetary policy so read up on it.

  • Ron Paul is a terrorist poopyface who is racist and hates America

  • @ProgressiveInAmerica

    You like it when everyone goes bankrupt and looses their house? You like it when there is foreclosures and unemployment? If you support anyone else that is what you promoting!

  • lame shit..

    end the fed?

    hahaha!

    fucking loonies

  • @silvercelli All the great American Successes occur because of the great inventive minds: Thomas Edison, Wright Brothers, Henry Ford, etc. Not because of the FED. Had we not been as inventive, we would have been debt slaves sooner. The Fact is that the only way you could manage the money supply of a nation is through transparency and education. I am sad to inform you that most Americans know who Lady Gaga is but do not know what a Federal Reserve Note is.

  • @se7ensnakes The Fed wasn't around for Thomas Edison, Wright Brothers, or Henry Ford. The FED came out of the ruins of the Great Depression. Anyway I agree with what you are saying. I'm just a stickler for historical inaccuracies

  • @RainbowManification

    The FRACTIONAL RESERVE SCHEME began three centuries ago. How successful were the Rothschilds? Look at the Waddesdon mansion to get a clue. Question: Did the Rothschilds invent any machine? The answer is NO! Did they discover some cure for some dreadful disease? The answer is NO! All that they do is move money around and manipulate the economy using fractional reserve banking. They dont produce anything of value other than a bunch of paper. The FED was created in

  • @se7ensnakes That's how capitalism works. You move your money around and eventually you have a huge monopoly.

  • I used to be an end the fed faggot too

  • @tom42121 What kind of faggot are you now? Other than a dumb one, I mean.

  • @pretorious700 lol...very good

  • @pretorious700

    ha ha ha good one!

  • Where did the 350 billion dollars go?

    "well, why would you ask us questions like that!?"

    lol, Ron Paul 2012, a good economist with a good sense of humor.

  • Nine Keynesian bailout queens disliked this video.

  • I watched it again I LIKE it so much! The 9 dislikes must be people who've have had a lobotomy or are part of the mainstream brainwashed sheeple.

  • Who are the 9 losers? LOL

  • great speech

  • EVERYONE MUST WATCH ''THE AMERICAN DREAM'' CARTOON . PLEASE LOOK IT UP AND SPREAD IT AROUND. IT EXPLAINS CLEARLY HOW ILLEGAL AND CURUPT THE FED IS , WHO RUNS IT, AND HOW THEY USE FRACTIONAL RESERVE BANKING THROUGH CENTRAL BANKS TO GAIN COMPLETE CONTROL OF COUNTRIES, NOT JUST AMERICA. LOOK IT UP AND WATCH THE WHOLE THING.

  • @silvercelli biggest army and economy yes, living standard here in belgium on average is better though, figure it out.

  • What is all this talk about abolishing the Federal Reserve? As if this is a government establishment we can just get rid of. The Federal Reserve is a private bank, not part of the government. A bank that holds the largest amount of U.S. debt in the world. People think that China is our largest creditor, that is simply not the case. If we try to abolish it or revoke its charter. Can it not demand payment in full? Pay with what? The sad truth is they own us lock, stock and barrel!

  • @101simar maybe not ended, but it should be held accountable for it's actions, and should be at the very least, audited

  • @101simar

    Not true...the debt could be retire with debt free money...with United States Notes slowly introduced into the economy to prevent inflation, and banks must be 100% fractional reserve banking.

  • Banks take the base money that the fed introduces and expand it when they monetize debt. So the FED is not the ONLY problem. 

  • ARE YOU READY FOR FEMA OR IS AMERICA GONNA SPEND EVERY DAY FROM NOW ON WARNING OTHERS HANDING OUT VIDEOS AND STOPPING THIS DISEASE IN YOUR COUNTRY BEFORE IT SPREADS WORLD WIDE LIKE IT ALLREADY IS !!! ARE YOU AS A AMERICAN DOIN ALL YOU CAN TO SPREAD THE WORD BECAUSE THIS SHIT IS AS REAL AS IT GETS FROM WHAT I GATHER !

  • @silvercelli Could you be any more clueless? The Fed's mandate was to control swings in the business cycle and maintain the value of the currency. They have done the complete opposite ever since. Wtf did the fed have to do with anything you mention? "Put boots on the ground"??? yeah, a lot of illegal immoral wars were started with deficit spending..you think that's a GOOD thing? Idiot.

  • @silvercelli your insane.

    The Fed loans us money at a interest. HOW CAN WE PAY OFF THAT INTEREST? By paying off the debt with the money they loan us at interest!? It is a never ending cycle of debt.

    All the money in your wallet is really just debt to the FED that can never be paid off by the simple logic that all the money you can ever pay them has a inherited debt on top of it!!

    DEBT=SLAVERY

  • our economy would not be collapsing if it wasnt for the federal reserve. that being said, we cannot end the fed as of now because of the horrific results. so we r screwed

  • Abolish the fed, or we all end up in FEMA camps.

  • @TheReptilianBrain You mean the ones in your head? I'm fine with that. One more thing, go Ron Paul, you fuckers are holding him down. He will be black balled a tin hat conspiracy theorist wacko and will never get even the republican nomination when he is really just trying to fix this country.

  • @RainbowManification Well, there are two possible explanations for this. Either I am a conspiracy theorist wacko, or I have more information than you. Either way, do you really think my personal views have such an influence on the overall image of a political contestant? Seriously, consider what influence your mass media has over people, then consider how miniscule my influence is, then ask yourself: " who should I really be interested in?" Seek those in control, not those in bondage. Peace.

  • @TheReptilianBrain You are correct sir. INFOWARS.COM

  • Here's what I don't understand- IF, we become commodities due to Maritime Law, and our names become DUMMMY CORPORATIONS for trade by the BIG WIGS on the stock market, our body that is- and, we represent either debt within the system what heppens when our currency (and therefore ourselves) because "worthless?" what happens? I want to understand this, I think Stephen Zarlenga at the monetary institute might have a better idea on how to do this than Ron Paul.

  • With Ron Paul it is the power of the Ideas, and yes I can imagine hundreds and thousands of every color, creed and community because of the Ideas.

    As the Head of the Banking Panel and with the End of the Dollar as the World's Reserve Currency, the Federal Reserve Bank's day's are indeed numbered.

    The Dollar is dead what's After the Fed?

  • Notice how the audience is overwhelmingly (maybe 100%) WHITE?

    Now you know why your Zionist Occupied Government (ZOG) is importing millions of third worlders, as quickly as possible.

    Can you imagine hundreds of blacks going to listen to Ron Paul? Or even understanding what he's talking about?

  • @packoftwenty thats because its a book signing event and this is his speech before sitting down and signing. Not even Oprah goes to political book signing events. racial propagandistic fail.

  • @packoftwenty you're an idiot.why wouldn't they understand him? are they too stupid or something?

  • Yawn, The more things change the more they remain the same. Ron Paul has no credentials that qualify him to speak on the subject of Economics. His ideology is a reiteration of the politics set in motion by the anti communist hysteria of the McCarthy era in America circa the late 1940's -50's. What is bubbling to the surface here is a reactionary middle class politics rooted in insecurity which is a continuation of the status quo struggle to manage an unsustainable class division of property .

  • @jazzbo66zz

    You are soooooooooo asleep. You dont appear to be able to see the problem in front of you: millions of foreclosures, unemployment, bankruptcies, jobs going overseas. You might leave in an apartment and have no money to invest in your future, but that is not everyone of us. We want a better, more free life....

  • people are retarded, idiots are like "oh America is a democracy and were so democratic and were of the people by the people for the people" but then they wanna go back and vote for SS and medicare and the fed and be half socialist/half capitalist, you cant have a market where the government controls a 1/4 of it and claim to be a democratic system, the free market is the most powerful symbol of democracy, and lately our market has been anything but free RON PAUL!!!!!!!!!!! 2012!!!!!!!

  • @fenderbender602

    Really? Capitalism, now a smoldering train wreck is half militarized security state, half desperadoes who own nothing, cannot afford medicine, pay what the earn to rent & work for wages no one can live on. The political rhetoric like this that employs "economics" as a ruse is really an attempt on the part of Libertarian elite to depoliticize politics by recruiting a cast of misanthropes & racists who are content to exist in a capitalist dystopia as preditors.

  • @fenderbender602 Really? Capitalism, now a smoldering train wreck is half militarized security state, half a rootless population of desperadoes who own nothing, cannot afford medicine, pay what the earn to rent & work for wages no one can live on. Political rhetoric that employs "economics" as a ruse is really an attempt on the part of Libertarian elite to depoliticize politics & recruit a cast of misanthropes who are content to go on inhabiting this capitalist dystopia as predators.

  • @fenderbender602

    Your understanding of government spending in relationship to the market and democracy is pretty idiotic itself.

    Democracy has nothing to do with free markets. China is living proof of that.

  • @DaFuckyouat you really think china is a democracy? It's not FYI. and dont embarass yourself by saying democracy has nothing to do with free markets, righhtttt, im sure there's such thing as a communist government with a capitalist economy....

  • @fenderbender602A

    hA HA, I get it. You're trying to bust my balls. No one could really be that illiterate and or stupid (imaginging I typed words I didn't).

  • "Political ideologies distort and corrupt language for nefarious purposes" - And you don't?

    "It is entertaining to imagine anyone naive enough to believe that American politics has anything to do with debate" - Who are you talking about?

    "Capitalism faces a crisis of legitimacy" - Completely meaningless nonsense

    "Posing as a patriot" - When did I do that?

    "you are no longer in the position to dictate the terms" - What terms did I dictate?

    "If you had just a smidgen of insight" - And you do?

  • What Ron Paul and the emergence of the lunatic fringe represents is the collapse of the Republican coalition that elected Bush Reagan and Nixon. Ron Paul has enough political savvy to recognize that Capitalism faces a crisis of legitimacy unless the public can be persuaded to blame itself rather than the underlying economic order for the dismal material conditions we are living under.

  • @jazzbo66zz Obama is also NWO. Do you actually think that Obama Care is done for the kindness of his heart? Someone tuck the health reforem bill under obama arm and told him that they will make him prez and he will pass the bill. Do you actually think that Obama thought about going into Lybia. No! someone told him to. You need to wake up and see what is happening...

  • i dont like the 2 partys expesholy the republican but ron poul is the men

  • @TheMartinez08

    Ron Paul is a Republican who would prefer that you thought of him as an outsider.

  • When I hear "free market" I am reminded of other examples of ad copy like "free discount coupon". I have long been under the impression that nothing is free. So it is a little difficult for me to imagine anyone or anything in the market of all places being"free", particularly as it seems to be the working principle that everything therein is for sale. This makes it easier to understand why it seems like Mr Paul is trying to sell us something here that will turn out to be anything but "free"..

  • @jazzbo66zz - I had assumed you to be a native English speaker but perhaps this isn't the case? This may explain your problem with that. There are 2 meanings in English to the word free. There is "free" as in liberty and there is "free" as in having no price. They are vastly different and totally unrelated concepts.

  • Comment removed

  • @xanas3712

    Ouch...why so cranky ?! I enjoyed your post very much & am impressed by your insistence that free & free do not refer to one another. Perhaps you would like to defend Libertarianism's dubious conception of "free" by suggesting that the term's meanings stand in opposition to one another as well? On the other hand I seem to recall that Goebbels agreed with Machiavelli for purposes of political rhetoric it is useful to smuggle content past the listener under cover of the ambiguous term.

  • @jazzbo66zz I was not cranky. I'm not sure from where you got that idea. "Free" is ambiguous in English, it has nothing to do with anarchism or libertarianism. And it's funny that you would claim that we "smuggle" anything based on ambiguous terms when "libertarian" is based on "liberty" rather than "free" probably in large part to avoid such ambiguity.

    Your attempts to smear others based on ambiguity you used is beyond odd.

    Posing as a patriot you would like to think you are otherwise invisible. Political ideologies distort and corrupt language for nefarious purposes. This kind of chicanery is common to the thought reform techniques employed by cults. Typically a sacred text is invoked & a set of dogmas are expressed as mind numbing cliches. "Libertarian is based on liberty" is an example. Attempts to claim a franchise on the term "liberty" is what is sometimes referred to in advertising as positioning.

  • @jazzbo66zz Everyone practices "positioning".

  • What I mean by that is I have no problems with the process of voting, as long as all parties agree they will abide by the vote before the process begins, and there is no use or threat of violence.

    What is wrong for me to do is no less wrong for those I vote to do it. If I can't steal your money what right have I to vote for someone to take it from you against your will?

  • Or if you want something from me to contest:

    More humans are motivated by self-gain than by altruism. This is not a problem because as long as they don't hurt anyone else and make trades voluntarily both they and the other side benefit by dividing the work into what each can do most efficiently.
