Regarding the Rescue Plan

Ron Paul on The Rescue Plan

This man should be our President, not the fake Republican or the Socialist.
\"In the last 12 months 100,000 private sector jobs have been lost and yet you\'ve created 30,000 public sector jobs. Prime Minister, you cannot carry on forever squeezing the productive bit of the economy in order to fund an unprecidented engorgement of the unproductive bit. You cannot spend your way out of recession or borrow your way out of debt.\" - Daniel Hannan

He was right about one thing, and that is the iraq war was and is still contributing to the fall of the dollar,...10 billion dollars a month and we\'re borrowing part of that from China, thanks to our idiot of a president. But i\'m not sure if we should do nothing,..doing so could possibly cause us to go into a new depression, but at the same time,both parties passed the bailout bill which republicans didn\'t like until they added more pork to it,...pathetic....so are we in a financial crisis or not?

When they pulled that stunt, i was and still is highly skeptical if we truly are in a crisis....
knowledge, wisdom & understanding..these are the basic fundamentals of life

if you can\'t amaze them with brilliance, baffle them with bullsh*t....

I was against the bailout from the start... we are overdue for an economic downturn.  Artificially propping up these banks and investment firms is not going to make this "go away"

I say it\'ll be a 5 year period with high unemployment & a weakening dollar.. I\'m getting tired of seeing all these financial stories asking or proclaiming "we are nearing the bottom of the crisis"

*Looks at the Dow Today... -690.95*

A person like Ron Paul will never get elected no matter how right he is on the issues... people see him as too "extreme" or "fringe".  I really would like a third party to rise up and compete with the repubs and dems though.
