Ron Paul is an Austrian (Austrian Economics)vs Keynesian Economics kind of guy. Keynes philosophy, central banking and FDR type error is a big portion of our current economic mess. Mr. Paul advocates the abolition of the fed, not a bad idea, but, he will just get the run around from the banking cartel. Fractional reserve banking is big business and all countries use it and those that are behind it are not going to let go, ever.

Ahem... Would you like a side of contrition for that very large plate of crow you dished yourself up?
Are you actually going to act like you had said earlier in the post that the R. Paul, which I wrote at the beginning or my response, was in all actuality Ron Paul? I don't understand why you didn't just say that then. Fine, if thats the case and my comments were not correct, as applied to Rand Paul as were your responses, then I need to eat crow. Cheers
New Schism Between Fed and Government The Fed and the Government have enjoyed a cozy, 100 yr old cushy deal [at the expense of the American people ]. Nobody really understood this before Ron Paul and others started objecting 40 yrs ago. But now everyone agrees the current debt and spending are "unsustainable". The Fed knows this and is trying to get the Congress to drastically cut spending--they want to preserve their cushy deal. Congress is not listening because there is no politically acceptable solution- they want to preserve THEIR cush deal [getting reelected] The Fed will eventually shut off the money faucet [when inflation kicks in strong and theatens their cushy deal.] This cannot end well, there will be bankruptcy. This won't happen all at once; they will kill one program before another, depending on how big the voting block is. Bottom line, if you depend on a government check you are vulnerable.
cite please. cite please. cite please. cite please. cite please. cite please. I'm looking for information from you that shows if this opinion or actual verifiable fact. You state it like fact. Since that is how you state it...citing for each one should be easy. TYIA
Forget it Gig; you are a liberal and you believe what feels right, facts don't really enter into it. [If A mod tells me to cite I'll do it.]
I personally take issue with any stance that is projected as fact, when its nothing more than personal opinion. I agree with a few of your assertions but I think your piece reads like an opinion editorial trying to break free, granted I am not saying you are wrong entirely just unable to factually defend your opinion.
