OK so you disagree w/ me on Dr. Paul but what about buying gold? You cant deny the dollar will crash at any day now and America is moving towards socialism. The red flag will be hoisted over Washington maybe tomorrow. we need to end the fed, go back to gold/silver and revive the Constitution.

"OK so you disagree w/ me on Dr. Paul but what about buying gold?"

It's unclear what this even means. Should people buy gold? If so, it is a financial advise, not the one about the future of the country. Should the government buy gold? That is a difficult question. It may do better by buying oil, for instance. He understands so little of finance that he is not even wrong, just nonsensical.

"You cant deny the dollar will crash"

Nobody knows the future, which makes the statement ridiculous (no offense intended), no matter who makes it. You can argue about the probability of the event, and even that would be a subjective probability only.

The current posture does not bode well for the dollar. But if there is a considerable instability in Europe or China, the same dollar will skyrocket. It is difficult to say what will happen in the event of a world war. There are too many variables on the table.

"at any day now and America is moving towards socialism."

We are not moving towards socialism but towards fascism. This has nothing to do, however, with gold standard or the existence of the Fed.

"The red flag will be hoisted over Washington maybe tomorrow. we need to end the fed, go back to gold/silver and revive the Constitution."

Yes, we need to revive the adherence to Constitution, but neither the Fed nor gold standard have anything to do with that.

In this area, Ron Paul is noting but a boring, nonsensical conspiracy theorist.
