  • He is right about the Oil. The goverment starts investing too much into one energy source and before you know it, its gone, then your left with a dead end; all these factories, cars, powerplants that ran on oil are no longer useful.

    But if you let the market handle it, then new energy sources can mix, mingle and progress in, then you don't ever have to worry about running out.

    We have energy being produced by the sun, gravity, wind, and even the Earths core... the market will take advantage.

  • I hope Ron Paul wins, for America's sake. This guy has a big heart and apparently gets a lot of flack for his policies. I see good in this man.

  • This is one of the best series of videos on Ron Paul I've seen.

  • @jroy99

    I think one of the issues with central planning is where you draw the line. If you let govt run some services, they will eventually expand their tentacles into other services. One of the other problems is that everybody compares American healthcare to Canada, Scandinavia, Australia etc. This is basically a bad comparison, as the American system is just as interventionist as socialised healthcare countries. If we were comparing to the free market, the argument would be meritorious.

  • I for one like Nuclear power. It's clean, safe and, easily renewable. Most of the fear that people have about this form of power comes from Science Fiction story's and Hollywood. Nobody is going to grow extra eye's or glow in the dark. If we were to build 20 new of these plants in the US we would have cheap clean and safe power for the next 100-200 years. On top of that the new plants would be safer then the old one's we have now.

  • Everybody would love free health care from the government. Eventually, one day the government can deny you treatment for your health problems by branding you are a dissenter, terrorist or what ever, and by that time, you couldn't pay for it yourself because it's too expensive. It's not wise to let the government have too much say in your life man.

  • @jroy99 - Nothing is free. Being better then our system isn't a stretch. He isn't suggesting keeping it the way it is.

  • I am a HUGE Ron Paul fan but I completely disagree with him on the health care issue. I live in Canada and while the system isn't without it flaws, it's still miles (or is it kilometers?) better than the US system. Sure, the waiting times can be long, but it's hard to complain when it's free.

  • People wanted a "bipartisan" candidate that year. They're still wating for Obama to deliver...

  • agreed, although i watched a documentary indicating that the effects of radiation at Chernobyl were barely different to the normal effects of ambient radiation elsewhere in the world. It was stunning, they talked about how the first on site clean up operatives suffered lots of negative effects, but that rates of illness on the locals were not that excessive, you never know if it was influenced by nuclear interests but was an interesting documentary regardless

  • Yeah, cable loss. Electricity dissipates the longer it has to travel through a conductor, unless it is a superconductor. I believe that cooled ceramic acts as a superconductor, but it would take energy to keep the ceramic cool, so that kind of defeats the purpose.

    I believe that nuclear power is hindered more by people's paranoia over Chernobyl, which never had proper supervision or containment facilities.
