[razoredge45]

What is just amazing about this man is the fact when it comes to a debate he returns back to squar A , Less Goverment! Everyone thinks we can fix a bad machine, when in fact the machine shouldnt be there in the first place.. that stupped woman trying to debate of how well its worked..total BS!

If eery politician was like Ron Paul we would be better off than we have ever been. He is the most intelligent man in Washington hands down.

Funny, everytime I post something like this video on facebook, I am told I am being unpatriotic and that if I don't like it here, I can just leave. i always tell them dissent is patriotism, and they can go ahead and try and make me leave. Fuck the government. It is the enemy of freedom.

@wingsuitfreak You are not alone. Most people DO NOT want to believe that something like this is possible again, nor do they care to educate themselves. This is why we have such ignorance, especially when it comes to ideas such as patriotism. As said by Zach De La Rocha "Know Your Enemy".

You can't counterfeit your money supply into oblivion and expect prosperity.

All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in their Constitution or Confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation.

This woman is simply not listening and apparently has not ears to hear.

He explained it with a ridiculously simple analogy of lying to the cancer patient and treating him with aspirin and yet she repeats the same stupid question!!!!

Like him or not Milton Freidman's chicago school studied models of a true free market recovery, using sound currency, and concluded the time frame at approx 2 years to prosperity.

Using the Keyensian methods 10-15 yrs.

According to the history she has learned .. Great depression happened because of Laisse-faire. If people just learn to obey the overlords and trust their wisdom, they will fix everything!

[anyusmoon1]

Sadly you're right. The more prestigious the learning institution the stupider they get. :-(

[strongbadassman]

regulation is needed to prevent fraudulance activity, and market overcapacity and bubbles, that has been what Ron paul was advocating, you can't just base your judgement on one interview and deem he will tottally let the market run loose on it's own, but markets cannot be encouraged to take irresponsible risk by introducing low interest rates policy that turn the American economy into a derivitives casino, you obviously do not understand anything about the economy apart from the French word.

[utubehayter]

Yeah! I don't understand economy....sure! says a person talking of market overcapacity.

[strongbadassman]

to break it down to your, the market are just numbers, perceived value, when there's a stock market overcapacity, it's a bad thing, because it's not backed by actual production value, hence overcapacity means overvalued, hope that helps.

[utubehayter]

its it really capacity if it does not exist? If so, I have overcapacity of unicorns!

[strongbadassman]

figuratively speaking yes, we are talking about the stock market after all.

Thank you for uploading this interview. I am pleasantly surprised that this moderator did a fair job of expressing what we're facing with the gutted bill. Bravo.
