another thing ive noticed is ron paul regularly cites history in his argument, very few politicians do that unless they are talking about the 90s or WWII
im not at all a paul ron advocate, in any sense, but i do believe he made some good points. there needs to be less government in some areas and more regulations in others. just needs to be a fine balance i think. you can't leave corporate america to do right because they are too greedy to do that. you can't leave the governement to do right because they are too controled by lobbyists.
Yes. So WHY wouldn't you give support to this man? What part of what he's had to say do you find objectionable? He advocates a return to accountable government as specified by our Declaration & Constitution. Should it be a surprise that the whores in the mainstream media establishment, which is owned by huge, monopolistic corporate interests & the internationalist central banks would abhor this man and his message? We all might have a chance if we could break the chains of their mind-control!
Tok obviously you're the idiot. He has preached his own views for over 30 years! God I hate these YouTube experts who watch a few vids and are now authorities on monetary policy and the such.
don't yell at me. (or put all caps at me) I want an honest response. the libertarian party sounds great! but i doubt its pragmatism...do libertarians believe in Any gov't intervention in markets? if not, &the free market always has the best intentions, how do they explain the incident in Bhopal, India, which still hasn't been cleaned up by the corporation who damaged them? I'd like to hear from a libertarian who has seen "the yes men fix the world," but i'll take answers from those who haven't
Chuck Todd is a Huge DICK!!!!! Look at that smarmy bastard sitting there like "oh wow, i just got owned ... i support imperialist assholes that have no interest in changing anything for the better"
the imperialists do want to change things for the better...for the betterment of themselves at everyone else's expense. economic debt is the modern form of slavery, and the US has slowly been brought into slavery by the global financial oligarchs
Ok, does anyone else see the similarities between Geitner's comments regarding the financial crisis, and Condi Rice's comments regarding the ill prepardness of the gov't pre war? I mean, the speech sounds verbatim to me.....If I'm wrong correct me, but just look up Condi's speech about their ill preparedness for 9/11 and compare, think you'll come to the same conclusion
simple solution? make our economy simplier? how to do that? get back on stable monetary currency (gold and silver). will we do it? no. Why? because "We" want more money faster and want it more accesible. greed. simple. frank. blunt. is socialism the answer? no. capitalism. yes and no. Capitalism causes greed= downfall of it. socialism causes greed for power= downfall. capitalism best right now. small gov. end of story. now....back to my stock investment. its so easy to make money!! :$

There should be a law to prevent people from running for government posts once they reached 65 years of age. All those OLD REPUBLICAN FOOLS need to retire. They have OUTLIVED THEIR USEFULNESS. We need the best MINDS that this country have to offer. WE DO NOT NEED A BUNCH OF OLD FOOLS who have NOTHING TO OFFER. Stop RANTING about the PRESIDENT. SHUT UP! Ron Paul. VACATE your seat,; there are many younger people with HIGHER intelligence LEVEL who need your very JOB.
Correction- No! YOU shut up! You're such an double-crossing liberal worm who're SO brainwashed by the propaganda media whores! And you're just TOO busy drinking beer and actin' cool where there's trouble going on in America! STOP!
On Enron's Board there was a professor of accounting from Standford. More regulation is not the answer, free market is.. Let the invisible hands do the work. I agree with watching the Fed.
ron paul schooled them. the best ron paul ass whoopin ive seen, he controlled that discussion. its good to see him not let the media guys walk all over him.
I read and watch Dr. Paul a lot this, but this is one of his best "handlings" of the press I have seen him pull off. He is a very smart man, and if only America could understand better what he preaches we could turn this around! Go free market!
Ah bull-shit! The Sarbanes-Oxley Act was put in place to keep these Wall Street criminal bastards from fucking us and he wants to do away with it because the companies got mad and went to another exchange. That's real nice. So to keep these companies on a U.S. exchange we have to let them cook their books and rip-off investors whenever they want. Well I've got a better idea, why don't he do his fucking job and push for laws that protect investors on every exchange. He talks alot a shit sometimes
but it failed. thats the problem, in theory it seems like a nice idea, but it doesnt work. We still have wall street criminals getting away with a lot of crookery, e.g. look at bernie madoff. No amount of regulation can control that, the best way to tackle it, is to not create the "easy credit" like ron paul says. The enron scandal, and crookery wouldnt have worked, if there was not an easy credit. The problem lies with the monetary policies not regulation.
First of all, I didn't say anything about credit. And what the hell does Enron's collapse have to do with credit? Enron collapsed because everything they did was a lie. And one of consequences of those lies was the passage of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act. And just because you've criminals that break the laws, that doesn't mean the laws don't work and you throw them away. You hire people that'll follow the laws, and ya throw the rest of the fuckers in jail, like Madoff.
well the sarbanes-oxley act was a failure and many admit to it and trying to repeal it. The reason Enron's collapse have to do with credit is because people invested blindly in corporations, bc the federal reserve and govt encouraged with artificially low interest rates and subsidizing big coroporations. If there is no free credit, people will not invest as freely, and would have been more skeptical when enron did not report their financial accounts accurately and they would have went bankrupt..
People invested blindly? Artificially low interest rates? What are you talking about? The people at Enron had their 401k's in that company, and so did a shit-load of other people. The whole world don't revolve around Hedge funds and borrowing to trade ya know. And as far as Sarbanes-Oxley goes, you don't even know what the hell it is. Just "Google" it and read it. Then come back and we'll talk about how willing you are to let these fuckers on Wall Street manipulate you out of your money.
well apparantly you dont know much about the downfall of enron. There is a consensus among most policy makers now that SOX has more problems now than they imagined it when they passed in 2002. The supreme court is also hearing a case on it this year, about its unconstitutionality. And there is a bill in the house, where there is increasing support from both sides, in order to repeal and rethink how to better manage problems like it. SOX has not prevented corruption in wall street since 2002...
...and if something doesnt work, you shouldnt try to defend it. Everyone wants to be sure that wall street arent above the law and they are held to the same standards as the citizens. But that is not the case, mostly bc of the power of the federal reserve and their subsidy of wall street. The problem is in order to solve the problem people are giving more power to the federal reserve. If you have so much faith in feds, why did they hire many former enron employees who were part of the problem?
so basically regulation was the cause of the financial meltdown in this decade, but its the federal reserve. People are starting to wake up and finally they are considering having oversight over the federal reserve and trying to make sure that they are not more powerful than Congress.
...anyway. I think the problem is not justice, since justice has been served to people who are involved in cronyism. The problem is reducing malinvestment, bc no amount of regulation can completely stop cronyism. Its like saying we can stop all crimes. But in order to stop criminals from arising, you dont solve it by regulating everything any citizen does, but not create incentive for what he does. The same can apply here, the federal reserve has made it an incentive for corporations to get...
...as many investors as possible, no matter what the cost is, bc in their keynesian way of running the financial markets, its to create the bubble, and have as many people invest as much as possible. But for every bubble there is a burst, and if people dont want the burst, they should be so attracted to the bubble, and should believe in a true free market, which will create a much more stable economic conditions and more importantly a fairer economic conditions.
2) PROVIDE FOR THE GENERAL WELFARE FOR ALL ( this includes social security programs)? PROTECT AND SECURE THE BLESSINGS OF LIBERTY INCLUDING HUMAN RIGHTS FOR OURSELVES AND OUR CHILDREN AND THERE FUTURE? If Obamas policies violate and do not comply with our Federal Preamble, then Obama is in TREASON with the U.S. and its citizens and should be sent at once to a clinic and treated for venereal disease infection that prostitutes tend to catch. google: LaRouchePac
1) One way to determine if Obama is a real American president or just another Wall Street prostitute, is by his policies. Does his policies comply with the PREAMBLE of our Federal Constituting or not? Does his policies HELP AND ESTABLISH JUSTICE FOR ALL? GUARANTEE AND INSURE DOMESTIC TRANQUILITY FOR ALL? PROVIDE FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE FOR ALL (which includes a defence against disease and pandemics)?
shame on you RonPaul. You are showing your true colors. The root cause IS the non regulation that REAGAN is praised for! we are not stupid. Obama is fighting thre organized fraud of corproate america that are all in colusion of price fixing, inflating, proiteering, and you rich scumbag con men don't like it one bit! Play by the rules or go to jail! Obama may be siding with Corproate America on certain choices I'm afaid, but making ilegalities punishable with jail!
shame on your cybervisionstar for thinking that obama is any different than george bush. if he was different he wouldn't have approved the war supplemental that continues the BS wars that bush began. he isn't fighting any corruption.. that is just a front to fool people like you into believing that something is being done about the corruption in this country.
Right on. Obama is merely serving the institutions that have placed him into power. Just another president dancing on a string for The Federal Reserve, AIPAC, and The Military Industrial complex.
I agree with Ron Paul on the idea that the Federal Reserve should be audited and made transparent...of course this will not happen because they have way too many skeletons in their closet so to speak
USPS takes away a person sense of being able to protect theirselves. The USPS have Judges Paul V. Gadola, Avern Cohn, Mimi Gendreau, & Jerome Blum willing and able to deny thier victims of justice. Postal Service victims are suffering & waiting for a "CHANGE" & "AMERICA RENEWING IT'S PROMISE" It is here and now!! Where is our justice, too many of us have died, & are dieing because we are treated as less than human in USA which is being crippled from within by an unethical hate clan.
Now Ron Paul a great american politician a great human n one that could reverse america;s decline n diabolical foreign policy run Not by americans but international thugish bankers But unfortunately men like him nowdays will Never be allowed to become presidents the crooks with power always get their YES man but american naivity had no limits makes me mad to think how america is run n has been since the creation of the fe res JFK stated he had plans to dismantle the fed 10 days later murdered
Why is the government, by extension you and I, required to guarantee that big businesses don't fail. When they make it big, do I get a cut? No. So when they lose why do I have to pay? If government didn't provide a "safety net" businesses might be more careful about how they manage their money and how they choose to loan it. The federal government needs to let the free market actually be free and stop trying to cater to their friends.
I would like for you to describe to me what a bank run means. What is fractional reserve banking? Why is it that with banks and banks only this is not considered fraud. If You and I ran a private business that way they would put us in prison for fraud and theft by taking. Talk to me bu bu benny and the jets! You silly little freak!
Investing is risky. When you take YOUR money and give it to someone else to use to build their business, you are taking a risk that THEY will not be successful, but you're taking that risk in order to get better than average returns on your money.
When you put money into an investment account there's a disclaimer that your principal can be lost.
Why am I, as a taxpayer, required to be surety for every person who chooses to risk his or her money in the stock market? They took the risk, not me.
He summed it up! The Fed makes the mess and the regulators are sent to fix the Fed's mistakes. We have to solve the problem from the root, the root being the Federal Reserve.
Many so-called "crazy" people are actually very intelligent--in fact the two qualities often go hand and hand.
Contrast this with Obama's typical supporters-- who are typically dumb and uneducated, and are just voing for the guy who promises to throw the biggest shovelful of money in their direction.
I guess given the choice, if I were Paul I would rather have the support of the "crazy" people.
Because everyone yearns for freedom. You might want to live in a police state, but the people you mentioned, 9/11 Truthers, NWO believers, Alex Jones fans, etc are the very people that's most vehemently against a police state.
because everything seems normal to u and many- that we have jobs and food on the table. history has proven that this can all be taken from you rather quickly if not cautious about how abusive a people's government can be. to me it seems crazy to sit idle as the fed govern taxes us to pay interest that it has borrowed from private banks...just my opinion. why are people so afraid of america following the constitution? and giving personal responsibility back to its people? crazy? nope
there are more important things than animal cruelty. if bush ran again and promised no more animal slaughtering and actually made good on it, i would still never vote for him!!
Paul seems like the only one who has any common sense in Washington. I don't know where you guys are getting off saying he is full of hot air? Your Obama and Bush are the big government pawns who like to tax and spend like hell.
He's exactly right about the economy. This is why he and other like him (Peter Schiff) predicted our economic problems. Sure he's right, but if you spew ad hominem attacks maybe nobody will notice.
Youtoober22...The thing is, is that "I" checked in the Congressional Records, how he voted on each bill. Something I'm sure you didn't do
He's for deregulation. His thinking is "No interference from the Government !!
Corporations, Banks, Wall Street should regulate & police themselves."
And he has the worst record for the preservation of our environment & animal protection. He voted "NO" on every bills proposed for the welfare of animals-stop Animal Cruelty.
there is proof all over youtube of ron paul talking about the very economic crisis we are in now YEARS AGO. for someone who supposedly did so much research on ron pauls voting record, I find it laughable that a simple youtube search is beyond your capabilities.
others predicted this crisis as well, such as Peter Shiff.
do you seriously think the government can stop animal cruelty? they can't even stop the flow of illegal drugs into the country. drugs are still everywhere.
Youtoober22 ..."you are upset with RP's logic on economics, so you attack him with evironmental and animal rights policy "...
To squash your argument, do you realize that some people did NOT vote for Obama ... simply because he supports a Woman's Right to Choose ... or ... Gay Right for Equality ... or ... Public Health Care??
Ron Paul doesn't meet my moral values concerning Animal Rights & the Preservation of our Environment. In both aspects he sided with Big Corporations !!
It's funny that u think the government is going to be a champion of the enviroment.
So u are obviously one of those PETA nuts who probably wants to free all the cows and have everyone eat vegan, so you feel justified in asking the government to make your little utopian world come into being, but the question is, at what cost?
how is creating a HUGE monolithic government going to be any different from having huge corperations run things. both entities are slaves to the same thing: money.
You can already do so, its called "Farm Fresh". Just look out for the label when you buy your groceries. Of course, you'll have to pay a premium for Farm Fresh.
My poor ignorant friend ... how much more you still have to learn about the food industry.
Just Google ... "False Labeling Farm Fresh" ... and learn the truth. I challenged several AbriBusinesses on their labeling and was always proving right. They will lie to you to pocket that "extra" profit.
Do you not remember the false campaign that "brown" eggs were healthier for you? When in reality brown & white eggs have exactly the same nutritional values
I didn't know that. Companies can do that and get away with it? Isn't that fraud? Anyway, I never buy farm fresh anyway cos its more expensive. I always go for the cheapest. :)
let me ask you a question librophile.. since you think that the democratic approach to the enviroment is so sound.. do these new regulations apply to the US government and the military?? the military is probaly one of the biggest polluters there is.. tanks that take 500 gallons of fuel, warships, and missles, depleted uranium shells, ect. Who is gonna stop the military from polluting the world? the congress just passed another war spending supplemental, so when will it end? obviously not soon
The US really has no viable exports except armaments and warfare. If we pull out our troops and they come back home, where are they going to find work? It's a moral outrage that waging war has now become America's defining quality. Travel around the world, and this is what you hear everywhere. There is widespead contempt for the US and rightfully so.
He implied the Fed in 2:10 in referring to the easy credit, low interest rates, and inflating of the currency. if you check out some of Dr. Paul's other videos and writing this will be more apparent. See 4:10, 4:54, & 5:12 also where he directly refers to the Fed.
The difference is, he doesn't legislate based on his personal opinions, only on the facts. That is why he appeals to so many people who are used to idealogically driven agendas.
He has been talking about the coming economic crisis for years. that was the point i was addressing.
Lots of times there is alot of "pork" stuffed into these bills that has NOTHING to do with the title of the bill, perhaps this is why elected officials sometimes vote against things they support, because some asshat inserted some extra BS into the bill. This is usually the case in washington.
and drugs, illegal, but the government can't stop them.
actually he has preached local governance not big government
I'm not sure if you understand his reasoning, I would vote no on a "FEDERAL" law to stop animal cruelty. Local authorities should be able to handle such laws and governance, there is no reason to add another bill that will create another branch of big government that will go underfunded.
ex. Why should everyone pay to stop cock fighting if it's not a problem in their city?
This government is bankrupt, do you realize that?
What most (not all) regulation does is just skew the system so that only those with power can win. the free market works way better than socialism. Look at Mattel and the lead toys from china. the government barely knew about it before Mattel took the china toys (even some without lead) from the shelves because of the free market. they were worried about their bottom line.
free market is great but you need rules to play by otherwise those with power will abuse it. the lead toys would have been sold here if not for the europeans who have very strict regulations. (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive or RoHS) not big with u.s. compaines.
they pulled the toys before the media could spin it and make mattel the bad guys. they where more worried about losing customers and that affecting the bottom line verses poisoning our children. if you think big business has your best interests in mind your delusional. regulations help keep the powerful in check. thanks for helping me make my point..
You miss the point, business doesn't have to have your best interest in mind. Selfishness and The profit motive (like every person has), works BETTER THAN REGULATION, as the mattel example proves. Although some regulations/rules are necessary; we have WAY too many. It is gamed by the wankers you think "have your best interest in mind". If you think politicians and lawyers have your best interest in mind you are the delusional one.
man will make a buck dishonestly, honsetly if he must -mark twain. regulations keep them honest, like not selling poison paint to kids to make an extra buck cause its cheaper and keeps costs low and profit margins high. politicians are of the people, for the people, by the people (until corruted by special intersts ei: big bisness trying to lift regulations) you think your smarter than the founding fathers lets hear your idea. btw i trust noone. especially those with money/power
the founding fathers never gave the federal government the numerous regulatory powers that they currently have(read the constitution). You seem very anti-business without realizing that the biggest crooks are the politicians. You seem to want to give them ALL the power. regulations don't make people honest any more than laws do. They just make everyone criminals. It's the profit motive that has most increased humans standard of living.
nice sound bite but not correct. science and Technology increase the standard of living by making things cheaper and more plentiful (food, shelter, luxury items, time). read "guns, germs, and steel" by jared diamond. The profit motive in its many forms (sometimes by war) has been the greatest driver of technology.
Profit and greed are good. Profit and greed gave us everything we have. All technological progress has been for selfish motives.
Greed is really only destructive when it comes to the state. They're the ones who send kids to die, and their protection allows for abusive business practices that the free market would have never allowed.
profit motive and greed are what drives improvements (again, read "guns, steel, and germs"). You don't seem to understand what a "standard of living" really is.
the founding fathers were men who loved freedom n loved american Nothing to do with the bankers who now run america same people killed every decent US president who tried to stand up to the bankers what F. regulators they are Not even allowed to investigate the 25% defence budget "DISAPPEARING"every year so far in many $trillions they have fucked you up guys this GREAT HONEST N BRAVE MAN RON PAUL IS YOUR ONLY HOPE anything else is BS
You can read about the "fed" in several good books. Eustace Mullins, "Secrets of the Federal Reserve" or "The Creature from Jekyll Island" Edward Griffin are a couple to get you started.
I really like how they tried to throw a curve at Ron Paul by bringing in the eminently ignorant Chuck Todd. Ron proceeds to lay the smack down on him. Ron doesn't skirt his question, he tells Chuck his question is irrelevent. LOL.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Wrong! The regulations/regulators failed because the banks and bought politicians in the government wanted them to fail or else they wouldn't have been able to pull off their financial schemes to make the rich richer.
The Fed is a problem but elimination of regulations is, has been, and will be a road to failure. Regulations are needed and unlike what happened they need to be enforced and not allowed to be subverted by wealthy interests and their lackeys.
Ron Paul will be heard from more and more because he understands the problem and has the answer, he is real change and he's not going to go away. The people are listening and will listen more as we face more economic problems.
The regulation of the past has been mis-guided. The Fed Reserve is clearly a major part of our current crisis, and instead of regulating them, we give them more power?
Everything is backwards- incompetence is now being rewarded. The banks are part of the problem, so we give them billions. The Fed is part of the problem, so we give them more power.
If this cycle is not broken soon, our country will continue to decline at a record pace.
Ron Paul supporters are not seeing the whole picture. its deeper then this. I mean come on hes just another politician how can you trust this guy. I cant even trust some of my own neighbors let alone trust this guy
No, Ron Paul is one of the few congressman that has a clue or backbone to say anything. The others are either Satanic and want to bring down the system or they are too afraid to say anything. Ron Paul has had this same point of view for about 20 years. If you dont trust this guy, maybe you should quit listening to the bought and paid for congressman and listen to the honest ones.
no I dont trust any congressmen. I see you are on the right track. I used to be a ron paul supporter until I realized he is just a puppet of the vatican. you have to look deeper into this. he is purposly exposing the truth so he can come to power. listen to WILLIAM COOPER for the truth.
jlstark23, You don't appear to be couching what you're saying as a joke, and it makes no sense. Ron Paul is a ten term Congressman who has consistently voted to protect the Constitution and the people. He has always stood by his principles. He's nobody's puppet. I believe William Cooper also, but Ron Paul doesn't have the luxury to speculate on what William Cooper was exposed to as a member of Naval Intelligence and through his research. Where can I see evidence for your accusation.
Try spirituallysmart . com also William Cooper exposed Alex Jones and told us that he is not on our side. so why is Alex Jones promoting Ron Paul? The only other reason for this is that Alex Jones supports Ron Paul to make himself look like the good guy.

I mean, the speech sounds verbatim to me.....If I'm wrong correct me, but just look up Condi's speech about their ill preparedness for 9/11 and compare, think you'll come to the same conclusion

Ah bull-shit! The Sarbanes-Oxley Act was put in place to keep these Wall Street criminal bastards from fucking us and he wants to do away with it because the companies got mad and went to another exchange. That's real nice. So to keep these companies on a U.S. exchange we have to let them cook their books and rip-off investors whenever they want. Well I've got a better idea, why don't he do his fucking job and push for laws that protect investors on every exchange. He talks alot a shit sometimes
HemiHead66 2 years ago
but it failed. thats the problem, in theory it seems like a nice idea, but it doesnt work. We still have wall street criminals getting away with a lot of crookery, e.g. look at bernie madoff. No amount of regulation can control that, the best way to tackle it, is to not create the "easy credit" like ron paul says. The enron scandal, and crookery wouldnt have worked, if there was not an easy credit. The problem lies with the monetary policies not regulation.
nader85021 2 years ago
First of all, I didn't say anything about credit. And what the hell does Enron's collapse have to do with credit? Enron collapsed because everything they did was a lie. And one of consequences of those lies was the passage of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act. And just because you've criminals that break the laws, that doesn't mean the laws don't work and you throw them away. You hire people that'll follow the laws, and ya throw the rest of the fuckers in jail, like Madoff.
HemiHead66 2 years ago
well the sarbanes-oxley act was a failure and many admit to it and trying to repeal it. The reason Enron's collapse have to do with credit is because people invested blindly in corporations, bc the federal reserve and govt encouraged with artificially low interest rates and subsidizing big coroporations. If there is no free credit, people will not invest as freely, and would have been more skeptical when enron did not report their financial accounts accurately and they would have went bankrupt..
nader85021 2 years ago
People invested blindly? Artificially low interest rates? What are you talking about? The people at Enron had their 401k's in that company, and so did a shit-load of other people. The whole world don't revolve around Hedge funds and borrowing to trade ya know. And as far as Sarbanes-Oxley goes, you don't even know what the hell it is. Just "Google" it and read it. Then come back and we'll talk about how willing you are to let these fuckers on Wall Street manipulate you out of your money.
HemiHead66 2 years ago
well apparantly you dont know much about the downfall of enron. There is a consensus among most policy makers now that SOX has more problems now than they imagined it when they passed in 2002. The supreme court is also hearing a case on it this year, about its unconstitutionality. And there is a bill in the house, where there is increasing support from both sides, in order to repeal and rethink how to better manage problems like it. SOX has not prevented corruption in wall street since 2002...
nader85021 2 years ago
...and if something doesnt work, you shouldnt try to defend it. Everyone wants to be sure that wall street arent above the law and they are held to the same standards as the citizens. But that is not the case, mostly bc of the power of the federal reserve and their subsidy of wall street. The problem is in order to solve the problem people are giving more power to the federal reserve. If you have so much faith in feds, why did they hire many former enron employees who were part of the problem?
nader85021 2 years ago
so basically regulation was the cause of the financial meltdown in this decade, but its the federal reserve. People are starting to wake up and finally they are considering having oversight over the federal reserve and trying to make sure that they are not more powerful than Congress.

less regulation was not the cause*
nader85021 2 years ago
...anyway. I think the problem is not justice, since justice has been served to people who are involved in cronyism. The problem is reducing malinvestment, bc no amount of regulation can completely stop cronyism. Its like saying we can stop all crimes. But in order to stop criminals from arising, you dont solve it by regulating everything any citizen does, but not create incentive for what he does. The same can apply here, the federal reserve has made it an incentive for corporations to get...
nader85021 2 years ago
...as many investors as possible, no matter what the cost is, bc in their keynesian way of running the financial markets, its to create the bubble, and have as many people invest as much as possible.

Investing is risky. When you take YOUR money and give it to someone else to use to build their business, you are taking a risk that THEY will not be successful, but you're taking that risk in order to get better than average returns on your money.
When you put money into an investment account there's a disclaimer that your principal can be lost.

What most (not all) regulation does is just skew the system so that only those with power can win. the free market works way better than socialism. Look at Mattel and the lead toys from china. the government barely knew about it before Mattel took the china toys (even some without lead) from the shelves because of the free market. they were worried about their bottom line.
rationalCrash 2 years ago
free market is great but you need rules to play by otherwise those with power will abuse it. the lead toys would have been sold here if not for the europeans who have very strict regulations. (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive or RoHS) not big with u.s. compaines.
dragontooth6969 2 years ago
they pulled the toys before the media could spin it and make mattel the bad guys. they where more worried about losing customers and that affecting the bottom line verses poisoning our children. if you think big business has your best interests in mind your delusional. regulations help keep the powerful in check. thanks for helping me make my point..
dragontooth6969 2 years ago
You miss the point, business doesn't have to have your best interest in mind. Selfishness and The profit motive (like every person has), works BETTER THAN REGULATION, as the mattel example proves. Although some regulations/rules are necessary; we have WAY too many. It is gamed by the wankers you think "have your best interest in mind". If you think politicians and lawyers have your best interest in mind you are the delusional one.

nice sound bite but not correct. science and Technology increase the standard of living by making things cheaper and more plentiful (food, shelter, luxury items, time). read "guns, germs, and steel" by jared diamond.

Wrong! The regulations/regulators failed because the banks and bought politicians in the government wanted them to fail or else they wouldn't have been able to pull off their financial schemes to make the rich richer.
The Fed is a problem but elimination of regulations is, has been, and will be a road to failure. Regulations are needed and unlike what happened they need to be enforced and not allowed to be subverted by wealthy interests and their lackeys.
Ron Paul is blinded by ideology

Ron Paul will be heard from more and more because he understands the problem and has the answer, he is real change and he's not going to go away. The people are listening and will listen more as we face more economic problems.

Mr. Paul presents an excellent argument.
The regulation of the past has been mis-guided. The Fed Reserve is clearly a major part of our current crisis, and instead of regulating them, we give them more power?
Everything is backwards- incompetence is now being rewarded. The banks are part of the problem, so we give them billions. The Fed is part of the problem, so we give them more power.
If this cycle is not broken soon, our country will continue to decline at a record pace.

No, Ron Paul is one of the few congressman that has a clue or backbone to say anything. The others are either Satanic and want to bring down the system or they are too afraid to say anything. Ron Paul has had this same point of view for about 20 years. If you dont trust this guy, maybe you should quit listening to the bought and paid for congressman and listen to the honest ones.

no I dont trust any congressmen. I see you are on the right track. I used to be a ron paul supporter until I realized he is just a puppet of the vatican. you have to look deeper into this. he is purposly exposing the truth so he can come to power. listen to WILLIAM COOPER for the truth.

jlstark23, You don't appear to be couching what you're saying as a joke, and it makes no sense. Ron Paul is a ten term Congressman who has consistently voted to protect the Constitution and the people. He has always stood by his principles. He's nobody's puppet. I believe William Cooper also, but Ron Paul doesn't have the luxury to speculate on what William Cooper was exposed to as a member of Naval Intelligence and through his research. Where can I see evidence for your accusation.

Try spirituallysmart . com also William Cooper exposed Alex Jones and told us that he is not on our side. so why is Alex Jones promoting Ron Paul? The only other reason for this is that Alex Jones supports Ron Paul to make himself look like the good guy.
