Ron paul is one of few politicians with a ******* clue, i hate our government they've forgotten everything the country was built for/on, hell the majority of decisions made nowadays, if you lok back to our forefathers they've specifically said such things would ruin the country. Thomas Jefferson I believe was the one who said a central bank with the ability to set value and inflation/deflation will do nothing but leave you poor and in the street over time. He also said he wwould never believe in a currency that wasn't of real coin and that a country with that type of currency will only fail.

Holy sweet mother, look what a google found:



The central bank is an institution of the most deadly hostility existing against the Principles and form of our Constitution. I am an Enemy to all banks discounting bills or notes for anything but Coin. If the American People allow private banks to control the issuance of their currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the People of all their Property until their Children will wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.



-Thomas Jefferson 1743-1826




I thought you were ******* with me, so I looked it up. I don't really know jack about the foundations of the US, but the politics today are so in your face it's like you can't help but pay attention. So I know about what the US is doing right now, not in the past. And.. That's why I thought you were ******* with me.

Thomas Jefferson: “I sincerely believe that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies"

Colin: do some serious looking back over america's founding father's, america is currently comprised of almost none of it's founding spirits. Everything the country stood for and believed in has now been changed to EXACTLY what our original leaders said would ruin the country, and guess what IT HAS.



Some of america's founding fathers had some of the best knowledge and insight about government and how the government should work compared to anyone else in the world, alive or dead today.

You guys have some serious things to consider before the election. Is that why Bush wanted McCain and Obama in at that meeting? As if to say "Guys, this **** isn't holding up until then, WTF do we do?"



I'm just really wondering if they are telling you absolutely everything at this particular stage of the game. The media will just tell you whatever, so you're not in a state of panic.

Not even close, we haven't even estimated the value of the OTC derivatives which are valued at the hundreds of trillions of dollars. The jig is up.

we're never told anything turthfully, we find out months later, unless we listen to the people who speak the truth but are label "whackos" listen to them and you remain pretty up to date
