  • Someone here told me to check my math.

    Entire defense budget, including both wars and all bases: 572 billion

    Entire state department budget, including international programs: 50.6 billion

    Earmarks: 25 billion

    That still leaves a little over 300 billion short of 1 trill. He will have to end Social Security or Medicare to come up with that number.

    Source: FactCheckdotOrg, Article: Wrong Paul.

    Revolution my ass.

  • they are leaving out "Non-Security Discretionary Spending"; a new category that was added around 04 to seperate 9/11 related expenses from normal defense operations.

    Security Funding 549.6

    Non-Security Funding 391.7

    Total, Discretionary 941.4

    If you add in the "Emergency Supplemental" it is another 104 million with an additional 108 proposed.

    i was wrong, your math is ok, you should just check your sources.

  • You want to know why I do not support him? Because the entire state and defense budget including all earmarks, the wars, all bases, all foreign aid does not equal 1 trill. Give me a break. He will have to keep the income tax and he will have to raise taxes to pay off the debt.

  • the government borrows money to fund the wars and the empire overseas which consists of 700 bases in 130 different countries.

    and the costs of the wars alone is over 500 billion.

    The federal budget for the fiscal year 2009 is over 3 trillion.

    watch?v=H5HYIAQn4Lg

    you need to work on your math skills.

  • @villalba874 all people over 25 will have Social Security as promised! under 25 will choose it or smth else

    you have to know his plan before spreading rumors and scaring older people unless that's what you want to do

  • @Himechansexytightass The CIA's budget is undisclosed, and that's because the money they spend is equal to the gross income of every major corporation in America.....you are also forgetting that the President does not have the power to end the Fed, only try and persuade Congress and the people he works for (US taxpayers) to make the change themselves. Try again.

  • @narutofan1108 WAS the #1 country in the world.

  • @villalba874 Romney, is that you? Give it up, your lies will no longer work. Ron Paul knows what he's talking about, he's been a congressman longer than you have been alive AND had the time to deliver 4000+ babies.

    And your credentials are?

  • @RonPaulvsTyranny Ending the drug war 44.6 billion

    He already talks about ending Social Security and Medicare.

  • @jbperez808 now you here the conspiracy theorist by him because they like smaller government and so does he. and also he wants to expose the federal reserve so do they. its just because one guy is up there finally speaking the truth rather then bull shitting the public and that's why we can all agree RON PAUL 2012!
