1983: Ron Paul Debates Federal Reserve Governor 2of7

[Martial024]

Sounds like nothings changed.

[majikninja07]

the power and control over money is wrong and should be addressed....only rook 26 years before what he knew was gonna to happen and now its to late

[TheUnkow]

The island example is so powerful.

[PlanckLimit]

This is fantastic. Thanks for putting this vintage RP footage up alongcamepaul :)

[Shohadaku]

This segments is one of the most amazing speeches I have heard. You lemmings chose McCain over this? PATHETIC FOOLS!

[KAZVorpal]

Republicans did not choose McCain. Among registered Republicans, McCain did not win A SINGLE PRIMARY up to Super Tuesday.

McCain was nominated by Democrats and other Liberals, in open primaries.

And open primaries are a violation of the fundamental principles of fair elections.

For a Democrat to vote in the Republican primary is as if the Communist Chinese citizens voted in the US Presidential elections.

[Scottluebke2004]

Dang, RP was looking good back in the day!

[Buckman82]

He is always good

[speak1truth]

I can't believe he was saying this 25 years ago and we still haven't done anything about it yet!! look where we are now!! rEVOLution!!

RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT!

[Jordan22473]

I know I say this and started shouting kuss words, hes been saying this shit since his hair was brown, Just goes to show the power of the media, They ignore him,

I dont think ive ever commented from 9 monthes biefoure

[10forRP]

It's amazing watching these old videos of Ron Paul. I swear he's a freakin' prophet!

[dentistsugardusty]

we lose twice. yeah it's a beautiful thing technology

[tuxfred]

It seems prophetic - but it's really him just knowing what the hell is going on 9unlike nearly everyone else in Washington).

[shizont]

THe value of money decreases because the money supply M3 is always increasing. It HAS to increase because the government sells US Bonds to the Federal Reserve (a private bank)in exchange for dollars. The dollars must be paid back WITH INTEREST, so more dollars than were "borrowed" must be printed to pay the debt PLUS INTEREST. ANdrew Jackson was the last President to rid us of a central bank. I hope ROn Paul can be then next

[broinformation]

where can i buy this dvd or tape

[alongcamepaul]

Ludwig von Mises Institute, you can download the video or mp3 for free.

Right now the shareholders of the FED have control over us. Gold or money backed by hard assets returns power to the people. It also makes our economy sound. Wait till the day that there is a run on the Central Bank, that is the day the whole house of cards comes down. You never have the whole economy at risk when you have the currency backed by hard assets.

[ffanatic13]

Indexing currency to a commodity (gold) is a VERY bad thing.

First, indexing the dollar to gold, gives those who own a lot of gold a leverage point over our country. You know who owns a ton of gold? South America, do you want Hugo Chavez to have control over us?

[trappy77]

Hugo Chavez gave a lot of oil for heat for poor families in this country. He seems as good as any other politician. Maybe as good as any we have had in my lifetime.

[success5B7]

You dont make any sense. Indexing the dollar to gold only tries to keep the value of the dollar matches that of gold so that people can keep their purchasing power. It doesnt make any difference how much gold anyone owns.

[mdwharton2]

In 1987 yes

[montiperotti]

Was there a US depression in 1986-87?

[trappy77]

The standard definition of a recession is a decline in the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for two or more consecutive quarters.

A depression is a severe and long lasting recession. We in America have had several depressions.

[montiperotti]

Cheers. I wasn't sure.

[rundoetx]

and its 2007 and he still makes sence.

Ron Paul an American hero who will stop the machine!

[papafazulli]

This guy is good with an extraordinary amount of common sense. I agree, the message must be spread !!

[TurboLoveTrain]

This video needs to get 1 million views. If this isn't on everyones myspace page, face book page, and any other medium: get busy. Be brave and talk to your friends about the FED, talk to your family about the FED, knowledge is power--spread the knowledge!!

[TurboLoveTrain]

Anyone not understanding the FED must be educated. It is the single most important problem facing America.

[catobear1704]

Man, he sounds so good. I wish, in a way, he was immortal. But, then again, it's probably good that we all die off. In any case, hopefully someone will step in and take his place when the good Doctor passes.

Long live Dr. Paul!

[Lyndehouse]

I will be stepping in

[JoeTube27]

Just have 1$ and 5$ back up by gold and silver, that will help our monetary problem. Also have a flat Federal income tax of 10% and a flat 15% sales tax. This will solve all problems.

[cmbradford]

How do you believe it will fix all our problems?

[success5B7]

The value of your money decreases more rapidly as the govt print more and more money out of thin air. If money was set to gold standard, then this wont happen. Get it?

[rasecphd]

God Bless Ron Paul.

[fruglescot]

When it comes to currency we have been led to believe that only "IN GOD should WE TRUST!

[97silverlude]

How dare this man actually speak about things of importance. Doesn't he remember what happened on 9/11?

God bless Ron Paul, and may He help us restore the Constitutional Government!

[JoeTube27]

Yup BLACK MONDAY he knew. Booooooo the FED.

[Dumbell99]

YEP he was right on! LOL

[nuclide]

OMG! He predicted the recession of '87 from the effects of inflation (timestamp-1:16) in '83.

[4reel5]

Once you know how the system works it's not hard to predict booms and busts.

I have the apocalyptic prediction that the currency will crash within 2 years due to hyper inflation.

The currency is already quite worthless, the only thing that's keeping it afloat is the fact that 70% of the world's trade is done in dollars; but even all that amount of production cannot keep up with an inflation rate that's been growing exponentially since the late 1940s.

[fruglescot]

Saddam sealed his fate in 2000 when he indicated that he wanted to trade his oil for Euro Dollars. The Iranians are also in the process of changing the oil marker to Euro dollars.

[Dumbell99]

It was like a shock to me when he said that:) Its definitely a sign and I do not usually believe in signs. He is perfect for president.

[JAALIUS]

Predicted the recession of '87 in '83
