Anyone who wants to get rid of their worthless dollars ahead of the crash is welcome to send them to me. I'll send a photo of Dr. Paul to everyone who responds:

people seem to be getting that all people are old.
yes if those that are too lazy to research then I consider them old.

it may not be their bodies that are old but the way they conduct themselves are.

I consider the ones that research the issues rather than watch just media to be old enough to vote.
you do realize in the tech age hackers started at a very young age teaching themselves rather than going to college to learn it. right?

those that take responsibility for their actions are old enough for me.

those that do not take responsibility are too young to vote.

while those that are too lazy to research whom are old enough already to vote are TOO old to vote.
research before voting.

and also those that vote based on their looks and shallow ideas are too young too vote as well no matter how old they are because they are selfish like babies.

Hence the mature ones that research the real issues at hand not trying to force their ways on others lazy people are the people that should be voting.

but alas democracy is not perfect.

pure democracy = 51% imposing their will on the 49% tyranny of the majority.
while dictatorships = 1% dictating their will on the 99%.

Sorry we need educated voters that know about the issues at hand rather than people that want to impose their wills on others.

old people = like to impose their will on the young
young people = irresponsible.
age = does not matter

it is the character of the person which matters.

which is why some countries allow marriage below age of consent in others as well as smoking/drinking.

PS Ron Paul is not old because he is NOT LAZY

someone like rick perry is old because he does not even remember his speech.

You are wrong on all counts, but let's just look at one. Please explain why you think he's "anti-military."

it is my hope that one of the major candidates would pick him as VP. he is of course very right but if we implement his plan it will cause the melt down we fear today instead of tomarrow. but maybe some hardship now could avert the train wreck??

It's not really about the dollar collapsing per se. It's about the dollar continuing to diminish in value. Inflation is one of the meanest con jobs in modern history: The working class' pay increases at a much slower rate than the rate of inflation making them poorer and poorer without even realizing what is happening.

It's a lot like the story of how to cook a live frog. Put the frog in water that is comfortable in temperature, then very slowly increase the temperature. You will cook the frog alive without it ever realizing what's happening. That is what paper money and the Federal Reserve are doing to us.

Returning to a gold and/or silver standard makes your currency inflation-proof. So long as one dollar is always worth X quantity of gold or silver, its actual value remains unchanged.

Go ahead all you political experts, what are the significant policy differences between them? Foreign policy? Domestic policy? Monetary policy? .... Anyone?
That is a big challenge it is easier for them to pick a candidate that is backed by the banksters and corporations. After doing so pat themselves on the back on how they made a difference

It has nothing to do with age except for people who are afraid of losing whatever benefits or entitlements they think they deserve for whatever reasons.

Why don't you answer my previous question about the policy differences between your preferred republican candidate and Obama, on anything but social policies?
I didn't answer it because there is no point in doing so. But, since you asked again I will give you some differences. You can take them or leave them. Of course you seem to think there is one candidate that is perfect, in fact you might think he is God. I happen to think there is never one perfect anything. Paul has some good ideas but not enough, in my estimation, to offset the bad ones.

Mr choice:

Believes Isreal is a friend of ours:
Does not support the DreamAct, but does believe in some adjustments
Does not believe in amnesty for all.
Wants to expand drilling and the pipe line in America
Knows the importance in working with both parties
would repeal Obamacare, or reform it.

Obama:
doesn't know what he believes about Isreal
Supports the DreamAct
Would give blanket amnesty if he could get away with it
Wants any kind of energy other than gas, including natural gas
only wants to work with the other party if they agree with him 100%
would like to see Obamacare even go further.

Now can someone please tell me how to get the ignore thing to work. I have never hit is before, but will now if I can.

Nita

So what do you think, will you regret having ignored Dr. Paul when the dolla collapses?
Doomsday prepper much????
