Business loves government! Government gets laws that keep competition controlled. There is NO reason for any "safety net" for BIG organizations! Regulations are friends to big business. Again it makes it more difficult for new businesses to enter the market. AND, look at the BAD decisions made and the bonuses paid for those decisions.

Ron Paul is awesome. I say that and I am a libertarian. I hope he wins in 2012

If we eliminate regulations for oil companies here in the U.S., prices will go down at the pump. Allow companies to dump toxic oil waste into open pits (or) shoot it into the water table and the cost of disposal will be dramatically reduced.

There shouldn't be bailouts either

Whatever some Republican ideologues believe, their philosophy has been co-opted to help out the few super-rich. Those still sticking to it, and ranting idiotically about communism, are simply ideologues who have become stuck in a philosophical broken record. Change and adaptation is vital to survival.

The truth is the best life for you and your family is to take this power away from the few and give it back to the people in a freer society. The constitution was written clearly, to restrain the force of government and to defend the rights and liberties of every single citizen. Don't let him convince you into voting for a national federal government that will, just as history repeats itself, reduce your prosperity and freedoms. The democrats and republicans both suck! Vote libertarian!

What this guy doesn't understand is that the rich bankers usually make the regulations favoring themselves. This guy is so blind to this but he'll keep fighting to give some unknowing identity his liberty! People like him live in a Neverland world, it's unattainable. He believes that people should have perfect regulations and that it is possible through government....HA!

Ron Paul is a real American republican and he would never give money to rich bankers in a bail out! Neo-conservatives are supply-side modern liberals whereas the democrats are demand-side liberals. It's either welfare state or the choice of McCain's big business welfare. Both options suck and are unAmerican! The truth is a real republican understands that welfare should be at the local or state level, not KGB'ed through the federal jurisdiction, if at any!

Does this guy not understand that government regulation does not reduce risk!!!! This is a horrible reason to bow down to D.C. politicians, in essence spitting on state's rights! There is no correlation between centralized federal national government regulation and reducing investment risk! This guy does not understand the real world or the fight we face once our government has stripped us of our once was free American society! Free markets aren't the joke, thinking government will help us is!
