He didn't say it was going to pop the next day. We sure could have saved ourselves quite a mess if we would have listened.

He was right. The odd part is those who were hurt the most are those you claim to argue for, the middle and lower classes. It's why nobody takes those arguments seriously.
Paul has gotten a lot of things right. Nobody can argue the FED is refusing to be audited for a reason. Now we find out there could be as much as $8T missing.

It's funny how no one seems to be concerned about what is being done with our money.

that's boring. gay rights and abortion are more entertaining to the masses.

Again 6 years and 5 months from the time he made that speech till the time it actually happened.

You are arguing that he is right based solely on the fact that he made the exact same prediction for the better half of 15 years.

I still cannot believe what the neanderthals are speaking here

When will they all grow a brain and realize they were all wrong and give Ron Paul some credit.

Just because they are racist lunatics that wont admit their own failures and live in the bubble forever
stealing from the real Americans.

I would say 90% of the people attacking Paul are likely leeches of our society hence their hatred for him and true freedom.
they are likely 90% communist at heart and maybe they should move to a communist country instead of telling us to move.

And Ron Paul himself would frown upon your post.

Yes, but it now IS. have you seen TSA lately?

And returning vets are being used more and more for militarizing local police-
Family of TN school employee formally requests FBI investigate his death « Watchdog.org

DHS recently granted millions to certain regions in Knoxville TN- a privatis$$ed prison system there, and the FEDs. Nice combo.

we are in a Stasi state, no doubt.

Whenever I see a Ron Paul thread, I still feel such a letdown...
This country had a chance at having a great man, a patriot, a man who truly has the brains & skills to lead...
Instead look what we got, more of the same.

You are right... he was/is bashed by the left, and was all but shut out by his own party during the RNCC. It was a shameless spectacle of how both parties couldn't care less about the country. They care more about holding on to their power and the $$$ they can subvert for their handlers.
