A fair charge. I got caught up in the hype of "Hope" and "Change"

I thought...maybe this guy will be different....maybe he will be able to make a difference.

The lesson is...it doesn't matter who is in office, we're all screwed. Aestu's signature be damned.

On topic, Ron Paul was born 150 years too late. He's a crackpot in this millennium.

Personally, I'm afraid of real change. I like being lied to all the time, policing the world, having more of our own citizens in jail per capita than any other country in the world.

Not being able to grow hemp in our poorest farming states so we can buy thousands canadian hemp products instead, prohibition empowered violent gangs, governments taking my hardearned money and creating financial crisis through private banking cartels, discouraging real big business with ancient style laws, losing respect for personal privacy and land,

also, I enjoy all the hurdles set up keeping people from hiring employees, starting small businesses, lemonade stands, all in the name of protecting us and earning the state money that it spends so well. Claiming free trade when we can't charge countries for importing but they can charge us for exporting..

seriously folks, keeping it short, why would anyone want real change.. when we can keep all of this RIGHT. MEOW.

oh yeah because taking money from some with producing power, telling them what to do if they want to keep their interests in that country, and using their money and resources towards a centralized governed scheme is a brand new idea, hasn't been used by tyrannical leaders since the begin of civilization at all.

Also comparing going back to the Constitution rather than destroying it, to destroying a chair that has issues def is quite the lulz.

This sarcasm tonight is on R.O.I.D.S. 5 gold if you know that reference without wowhead or lol thottbot

Ron Paul's worldview (and that of many libertarians) would work if we were still farmers and small business owners with limited reach. In today's world of mega-corporations the thought of giving them free reign is mind-boggling. People rightly complain about the power of these corporations now and the impotence of the average citizen who comes up against them, in a libertarian world there would be no stopping the complete power of the few massively conglomerated companies from controlling pretty much everything.

What power does a corporation that isn't in bed with government really have?

The power to entice me with fantastic products I really really like? Those corporations are giving me milk, condoms, beer and toilet paper. Libertarians aren't anarchist, we do believe in government doing one of it's legitimate functions - protecting citizens from force and fraud.

They can't force anything, and force is a foundation of control.
