You are waaaaay off base on this one jazzy. Doesn't understand global markets? Who do you think predicted the downfall of our economy and the ensuing downfall of other countries economy? This is a talking head point with nonsensical gibberish and nothing to back it up.

Since when is living within your means a 19th century concept? That concept is a lot older than that and is an excellent foundation to build on. Yet you criticize it.

Keep listening and relying on the losers and crooks who continue to back the failed policies that put our economy in the toilet and you'll get more of the same.

I can think of few politicians who explain their policies whereby the common person can understand them AND are as consistently correct on the outcome as Ron Paul. It baffles me when someone misrepresents something about him that isn't true. Is the agenda that blinded?

The fact that his policies appeal the "The common person" shows how dumb down they are.

They won't work in a modern global economy.

The overwhelming majority of Americans are dumb as box of rocks when it comes to economics and finance. It's easy for a "Good Ole Boy" with some folksy colloquiums to appeal to people. After all politicians like Sarah Palin, Christine O'Donnell, and Sharron Angle have become popular with many Americans because THEY APPEAL TO THEIR IGNORANCE.

wtf because he explains his policies so the common man can understand it is a bad thing????
Yea lets keep relying on all the "smart" conmen who continue to set policies to help their buddies and in turn bring the economy to its knees. We need more bs artists like Bernake I guess.

Which economic policies of his are dumb?

Congress is worse. They put policies in place that make it harder, not easier for our long term success. Look at their past record.

Speaking of ignorance, keep voting in the same ones who, unlike Ron Paul did not see the economic downfall of our country coming. You didn't say anything of substance in this entire post, jazzy. Economics isn't hard.

It's like I'm in a bad dream where almost everyone is telling me to bet on the Cubs instead of the Yankees based on their past record.

too bad you dont understand that the US federal reserve is about the United States monetary system and not other countries money.

I think RP is spot on with his view of the fed and that it should be shut down and have its doors closed. there is no need to have a private bank being in charge of US currency.
