Ever notice how as our government has gotten bigger the wealth consolidation has gotten worse not better? Not the other way around.... 
And once again I'm not voting for your failed party like you said to do in 04,06, and now 08. They are just as bad as the other Republicans thank you very much.
Your articles have nothing to do with Ron Paul and are a failed attmept at smearing him. |
Here's the thing though. Ron Paul believes in deregulation of pretty much everything. Maybe he has faith that big businesses will be good and not abuse this deregulation but I do not believe it for one second. He wants to basically eliminate the federal government. Guess what? Now we've got the EU only with 50 states. Some states will just stop repairing their roads with no federal funds. Some states' education systems will go to shambles (worse than they are now). Flu shots? Some states might not offer them because there are not federal subsidies. Most research done for the US is funded by the government -- biomedical, electronic, chemical -- universities would be unable to conduct research, and that is BAD -- really bad. Imagine if we hadn't invented the Nuke during WWII because research was unfunded -- if we hadn't split the atom, or hadn't researched DNA.
You can't eliminate the federal government, and this is exactly what RP wants to do. It's insane and will surely destroy everything this country is. That is why I do not support Ron Paul, and frankly if anyone looks over his positions and still supports him, I think they're missing a few screws. He's just a stupid internet fad.
