@gurtanator - Capitalism is more than OK - it's the best system in the world - FOR THE POOR.

You want to find the places where the poor are doing the best, it's in the countries with the freest market economies.

You want to find the worst poverty, it's in the countries with the greatest amount ...

@TheCynicalDude - 2. It gave money to the poor, but the main reason they needed the money was as a result of government intervention. FDR's AAA was estimated to put 2 million people out of work, they only needed the help because of FDR. If I burn your house, I can't take credit for loaning you a ...

@byrnecobain - house. gov/jec/middle/mobility/mobility.htm is one source for that study. There are a great deal of others.

@svack5 - Please provide a single shred of evidence that Mr. Paul would discriminate against women, or anyone for that matter.

But your ignorance of the historical use of states' rights is unsurprising. States rights were used to oppose the Alien and Sedition Acts in support of free speech, and ...

@MortimerTheClueless - Not to defend Romney, but seriously, you think Obama is not a puppet of the wealthiest of the wealthy. Mr. Bailout has received over $15 million from Wall Street financiers, more than all the Republicans running... combined. Bill Daley, his now former Chief of Staff was a V...

Idiot one and Idiot two discuss how to solve a problem caused by government with more government.

@jakewedlake92 - I don't know about that. He's bad. Truly truly bad. But it's tough to say he's worse than Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Herbert Hoover, FDR, or LBJ.

They've set the bar quite high indeed in terms of expanding the size of the Federal Government at the expense of the individual.

@visini14 - So by reducing the size of government, the middle class would get fucked over.

Hardly. It's the current policies that are fucking over the middle class. It's the fact that 40% of their income is stolen every year by the government. It's the illusion that the government is just their ...

@debenni - You have the right to worship or not worship, or believe in anything you like - HOWEVER, you do not have the right to not be offended. You do not have the right to limit anyone else's right to say or believe anything that they wish. Respecting your right to speech and belief means resp...

@DrVirtualRabbit - No, Michael Moore is a hypocrite. He may worked hard to make his millions, but he's speaking out against the few bits of the economy that are right. Is he calling for reduction in government power? No, he wants to increase it. Is he calling for greater competition? No, he wants...

@InvincibleNumanist - He doesn't ignore, he just refuses to debate. He prefers instead to misstate Austrian economics and then win arguments against strawmen.

@KrugmanTheKing - But people do not enjoy more leisure time because they are governed, rather in spite this fact.

How much more leisure time would people have if they didn't need to spend 40% of their time working to support the state, and it's interference in their lives. How much better would ...

@cmprice11 - Just because you want it to be in the Constitution, that does not make it so. The Constitution says nothing of zoning regulations. It does not grant the federal government that power.

@Lostzilla847 - You think a board of directors would pay a CEO $10 million for just taking vacations. You think they would entrust a man with their company who does nothing? Would you?

@sinbysin666 - When?

I love that you use Penn Jillette in your video.

Penn SUPPORTS RON PAUL, genius!

Your boy Rick Perry supported Al Gore.

Ron Paul is a radical. Hmmm.

Believing that the federal government should be limited to the powers granted it in the Constitution is "radical"?

Schultz, traffic lights are a local function of government, and the FAA is completely unnecessary.

What a weak argument you make for the Department of Education, which has done nothing to change school access, nothing to improve education in this country, but has overseen a great increase in adm...

@sfiorare - Ron Paul said that, and we appear to be headed into that depression right now. He did not give an exact timetable. But it is occurring, and for the exact reasons he predicted.

The Federal Reserve doesn't print any money? That's just obviously false.

I know what the Fed does, you don...

@KrugmanTheKing - "To fight this recession the Fed needs more than a snapback; it needs soaring household spending to offset moribund business investment. And to do that, as Paul McCulley of Pimco put it, Alan Greenspan needs to create a housing bubble to replace the Nasdaq bubble." - Paul Krugma...

@Meade556 - We don't have a mostly private system. He have a tightly regulated system of cronyism and state-enforced mandates, and one in which 45% of the funds spent are spent by government.

@fraanz1706 - If you want to remember fantasy, go ahead. It's not capitalism that fights wars, as capitalism is inherently peaceful. Crony capitalism and fascism get wars going.

The free market is based on voluntary exchange of goods and services. If force is applied, then the market is no longe...

@manmachine30 - Guevera was a butcher who wanted to get Khrushchev to launch nuclear weapons on the United States. He killed a great number of innocent people for disagreeing with him.

Guevera fought for Guevera. And the rest of the planet is far better off because he is in the planet, and not o...

@unclexbob - You're funny. "I have no idea what this guys economic arguments are".

You seem to be arguing semantics with a straw man version of me, and completely ignoring what I've actually written. But since you seem to be ignorant of quite a bit, I'll take that as par for the course.

You've ...

Fun at the end to watch Robert Reich just to an outright bald-faced lie. This, along the theory that a lie, repeated enough times might become true. Comparing Ron Paul to Herbert Hoover, and the idea Herbert Hoover's policies were in line with the free market is laughably and undeniably false.

When will Chris Mathews learn that people talk in turns?

@Seedofwinter - And since you still think Hoover was "laissez-faire", let's look at what FDR's advisers said. Rexford Tugwell, from the "Brain Trust" said, "We didn’t admit it at the time, but practically the whole New Deal was extrapolated from programs that Hoover started.”

The only reason Hoo...
