October 16th, 2008 Our friend Robert made an insightful comment on Hal’s recent blog post:
"Next year, we will have 365 days of Christmas. Both candidates are rushing to promise us more and more goodies to buy our vote. It will be great until we discover they are charging all these goodies on our credit card.

July 26th, 2008 "It is neither morally right nor fiscally wise to socialize private losses in this way. The solution is for government to stop micromanaging the economy and let the market adjust, as painful as that will be for some.

His consistent mantra of sticking to the Constitution has me sold. His understanding of monetary policy, on what is money, on the Federal Reserve, on a non-interventionist foreign policy, on putting the U.S. back on track economically, on cutting spending, on stopping the government from stealing people’s paychecks, then taking that stolen paper . . . → Read More About Dr. Ron Paul: Pulling No Punches
