Why does Ron Paul persist in acting like such a grown-up?

America is still enjoying the Great Credit Party, and Ron Paul comes in and says it’s time to go home. sheesh.

If we could print our own money, we would never be in want and always be financially independent. But that would make us independent of government and government fears nothing so much like a challenge to its monopoly. It will never surrender its exclusive right to coin and circulate currency. And to control our life from birth to death.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

God bless him and I hope he’s successful, unfortunately it’ll be Ron Paul against the Congress once again. Congress sold control of the US dollar to the Rockefellers and Morgans a long time ago, and our representatives today are 10 times as corrupt as they were back then.

“I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.
Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The
issuing power should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people to
whom it properly belongs.”
- President Thomas Jefferson

“History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit and violent means possible to maintain control over governments by controlling the money and the issuance of it.”
- President James A. Madison

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.”
- David Rockefeller, June 1991 - Baden, Germany

“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of our currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and the corporations that will grow up will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing of power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.”

Jefferson

The USD serves me as a measurement of inflation and as a vehicle to buy investments that cancel out or exceed that inflation.

And that inflation is way more than 3%, but the Fed has its way of measuring things and I have mine - the USD.

Presidential candidate and Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) introduced H.R. 2755 “To abolish the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal reserve banks, to repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and for other purposes.” This legislation would help to restore the U.S. Constitution, which mandates that only Congress can coin money (Article I, Section 8, Clause 5)

Then he should have called for the abolishment of the Treasury. Ron Paul is a kook.

Where’s the text of the bill? Or is this it: “To abolish the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal reserve banks, to repeal the Federal Reserve Act, and for other purposes?”

Don't rely on Woody Wilson:
I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit.
The only truth to his statement is that he "unwittingly ruined" his country, only it had nothing to do with the Federal Reserve: he did it by nationalizing the railroads, which effectively nationalized coal, power, automobile, and other industries that were dependent upon the rails.

What upset him about the Federal Reserve was that it prevented him from formally nationalizing the banking industry, as well.

Thank you for posting this article. The country owes you a debt of gratitude for exposing another one of Ron Paul’s goofy ideas. The more people aware that this man is a loon, the better.

Keyd, thank you for your post. Ron Paul is one courageous and honest man. God bless and keep him! There is no law saying a citizen must pay a federal income tax because the law was never properly ratified. the Income Tax is just a big scam and its lackeys have ruined many lives.

Right now in fact federal marshalls and other agents of the IRS have Ed and Elaine Brown under siege in New Hampshire. Check it out at youtube.com

Anyone wanting to know the truth about the legality of the IRS, the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank, or the invasive RFID chips, must see Aaron Russo’s DVD, “America: Freedom to Fascism. (God bless and keep Aaron too. He’s another courageous, intelligent man who also loves freedom.)

As for you, Dugwayduke, I can only assume that you haven’t taken the time to learn the facts, or you are incapable of understanding truth. I hope you wake up and stop being a sheeple.

“which mandates ....that US debts be settled in silver and gold Article I, Section 10, Clause 1).”

Sorry, but this part doesn’t quite make sense.

Section 10 is about what STATES may or may not do. It specifically says in the same clause that STATES may neither coin money (which you are advocating only Congress has power to do, per other referred clause) nor “make any thing but gold or silver coin a tender in payment of debts”.

It doesn’t say anything about the US as a WHOLE specifically using gold or silver.
