Thanks for sharing. I have to admit that I like the transitions in this video better than the original - I think we probably should have experimented with the music transitions on another video first :)

Hi Pete. Thanks.

Self-government with no obligations = anarchy.

i have a feeling Ron Paul is an anarcho-capitalist like Rothbard was.

[ligitpoker]

Ron matured like a good wine.

Oh shut up you bunch of liberal idiots. In capitalism you dont own your own labour, you are forced to sell it as a commodity in order to just survive. And socialist societies couldnt survive in a free market as they must be linked to the capitalist markets in order to buy basic essentials, so its essentially not socialist, and will be under the pressure of an incredibly hostile system. Just take the friendly societies of the 1800's who couldnt survive enough to help many.

i have been telling people exactly what ron paul said about a libertarian society: that communities would be free to try out socialism (voluntarily), a resource based economy, or an anarchy so long as they don't try and coerce it onto other people.

[Henning Jensen]

I don't think he always has been :)

[jsteel89]

He is. he just said that was his goal :)

[Josh Norris]

That's not self-government then.

great video...the only way the prevailing attitude is going to change is when not if we hit rock bottom

[Marcus Fry]

Ron Paul believes in self-government. Now, this does NOT make him anarchist. When someone's "self-government" infringes on the rights and liberties of others, he sees a role for government.

Ron Paul won't save america. The people will stop founding politicians and stop paying taxes and the government house of cards will fall. We don't even have to be the majoirty just a few million would do it and there would be noone who could stop the chain reaction.

Ok - You might want to be a slave and work for the IRS and your country. But you are not too bright.

Don't ask yourself what you can do for your country - ask yourself what you can do for your neighbour.
