Congressman and two-time presidential candidate Ron Paul tells Newsmax the economic stimulus plan is a "total failure," and he's pushing a bill requiring the Federal Reserve to disclose its dealings so Americans can find out who the "culprits" are behind the financial meltdown.
The Texas Republican also said the U.S. is on course to "destroy the dollar," the healthcare reform plan is "dangerous" and could bankrupt the nation — and he is fighting against those who "would socialize the country."

Ron Paul is a kook!! ARGARGAGGAH
It would be more correct to say that Obowma is accelerating the destruction of the dollar. Ever since we abandoned a hard money standard and began running deficit after deficit, it has been inevitable.
“We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation,” Biden said.
“Well, people that I say that to say, ‘What are you talking about, you’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt?’” Biden said. “The answer is yes, I’m telling you.”
We are currently monetizing the debt and destroying the value of the dollar in the process.
But that sure was a great pitch Obama made at the All Star Game wasn't it?
What on earth of his views here do you disagree with?
I find his foreign policy views difficult to see working out well, but on stuff like this, I am amazed people don’t want to audit the fed, or disagree with the other financial predictions here.
all your Ron Paul are belong to us!
sarcasm tag actually is needed there, as there are some freepers who treat anything ron paul says as the word of a Pariah, as you obviously know!
It is close to destroyed already.....in just a few months.
The greatest Congressman since Henry Clay, IMO.
not if oil goes to 20@barrel
He’s actually pretty consistent.
He doesn’t vote against a House resolution to condemn Iran, not because he agrees with what they’re doing, but because he does not believe it is within the Constitutional authority for the Congress to do such things.
Ping
Is the dollar all they worry about? The entire country will be destroyed — it is Obama’s mission.
Change we can believe in ROTFLOL!
“The govt has been buying up banks,and insurance companies, and car companies, and now they’re gonna socialize medicine.
So it’sa real contest now between those of us in America
who believe in freedom and a free market economy and those who want to socialize our country.” Ron Paul
There sure are a lot of people to blame for the situation we are in. The voters are the first in line to blame.
