I'd argue true capitalism hasn't really existed in any part of the world. If you think there has been ANY semblance of capitalism in the US economy since 1913 you're a buffoon who not only fails to understand the basic tenets of capitalism but fails miserably to understand the American economy and how we got into the mess we're in now.
I'd take it one step further and say the type of capitalism that Adam Smith and John Lock envisioned not only never existed, could and will never exist in modern 21st century society. There are tenets of capitalism that are superior to all other economic systems. But to act like it's some sort of holy grail of prosperity that will life the world out of poverty and give peace on earth is not only absurd but completely juvenile and ignorant.
free-market capitalism vs state capitalism
free and voluntary exchanges vs groups using government
Oh brother. You have no idea what you are talking about. The alternative to inflation is far worse... (deflation). Ron Paul is an idiot.
In the 19th century, women and minorities didn't have rights. Labor rights were few and far between. I'll pass, thanks.
Oh boy! Here we go again with the "b-b-b-but if Paul is elected minorities and women will lose their rights" BS! What is in that kool aide that you're drinking?
Between Rand Paul and a shameless power-luster like Hillary Clinton my inclination would be to go with Paul. But that could change, depending on how much he bends to the religious right to get the nomination.
oh you mean the ron Paul that has 6 of his family members ( the most in Congress) working for him so they can siphon off campaign money into their pockets....
yup he is a real winner.
I find it amusing when people think we can eliminate 80% of government and still have a good place to live.
We don't need roads, we don't need to protect the environment, business will do it. Who needs a postal service? who needs healthcare or social security? Who needs to look out after Veterans? The Pauls are against everything that makes our lifestyle easy, could their deep holdings in gold be the reason? undermine the country and your price of gold will triple or more.
No thanks for any of the Pauls in government I'd just assume Rand be retired too.
This is another example as unbrainwashed is, that have no clue what the Pauls are about.
