[Red Jones]

the federal reserve is a monster and we should do away with it.

[JohnGalt]

Beyond 'left and right' bump.

[Chancellor Palpatine]

Who is Ron Paul, and what does he stand for? I've never heard of him.

[Kwilliams]

bump for the Constitution

[Destructor]

That's right! Those Freepers who love to pay their Federal Income Tax, and just can't wait to write that check every year are just flat out fools!!

[isthisnickcool]

I worked on one of Ron Paul's first campaigns. Many years ago. Before I could even vote. He was talking about this even then. Dr. Paul has never really changed.

[Mark Felton]

If our true welfare costs are so great, why would I wish to precipitate a crisis by eliminating a system that is thus far handling the problem?

All good things come to an end, but why accelerate the process?

[Phantom Lord]

Ah, how would getting rid of the Federal Reserve in anyway effect the income tax?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

A Republican representative from Texas who initially won his seat as a Libertarian. I believe he is also a physician. He is a true conservative in the strict-constructionist sense of the word but, alas, he is a voice crying in the wilderness.

You know the card that you signed to open your checking account? That is an agreement to abide by the rules and policies of the Federal Reserve system that gives the government the authority to tax you.

This has about as much chance as a bill by Paul Wellstone introducing Marxist-Leninism as the official national philosophy. In other words, it ain't going to happen.

God bless Ron Paul. I hope he at least gets to debate the subject. That ought to be interesting ... watching GOP and Democrats alike sit on their hands save for whatever bipartisan dogs are sent to savage Paul for even suggesting some private concern of bankers control "The Economy, Stupid" by ensuring our nation (and our citizens) run up the debt necessary to enslave us and provide the Bankers with all the funny money they need to purchase the gold only they are sensible enough to hoard.

[RonPaulLives]

Do you truly not know who Ron Paul is? U.S.Representative Ron Paul (R-TX) is a lighthouse of truth for smaller government in a sea of scoundrels for bigger government. He sometimes gets blasted here on Free Republic, but hey, you can't please everyone.

Same Ron Paul who blames the US for bringing on 911. Same Ron Paul who stands with Noam Chomsky saying US deserved it for our policies?

Breaking news? Breaking wind more like it.

He won his seat running as a Republican. Anyway he is quite "independent"(bullheaded, IMHO) and has recently questioned the Bush administration on it's policy towards Iraq.

[tallhappy]

He's a nutcase. Has typical leftist anti-US attitdes -- eg US policies caused 911. US caused millions of deaths in Iraq.

Yet claims to be libertarian but apparently runs as a Republican (another example of his spineless nature).

When I first heard about him I thought he sounded great because he was trying to put up bills to get rid of the UN.

But it turns out he is not a serious person. His "bills" are not serious. Nothing he does is serious.

Marxism: "It's the Economy, Stupid"

Has it escaped you somehow that economic parity lies at the heart of the successful attempt to radicalize blacks (who were encouraged not to work) and women (who were encouraged to work and therefore ratchet down a man's ability to bring home wealth such that all HAD to work?)

As for Leninism, you must not know very much about it or you'd recognize our "environmentalism" in particular for the essential Leninist objective of Deep Ecology as organizing principle.

"Conservatives" these days are primarily interested in preserving a status quo that is essentially leftist in character ... whether it be the communist subversion of our nation's founding (Christian) principles or the national socialist tenets -- such as abortion and the warping of patriotic love of country into a belligerent rabid nationalism.

I guess the 16th amendment has nothing to do with the authority to tax.

And by your reasoning, if I don't have a checking account, then the government has no authority to tax me. You are a moron.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

He won his seat running as a Republican.

Not the first time he won it.

[Dead Corpse]

Leftist?

Not hardly. He's a strong advocate of Freedom.

Of course that idea scares the hell out of a socialist like you so you feel you must lie about his positions every chance you get.

You are pathetic.
