Government Solutions Lack Understanding
by Ron Paul
Things seem to be unraveling quickly for the new administration. The latest unemployment numbers are worse than the last reports. For all the billions of dollars spent and committed to fixing our economic problems, the situation is only getting worse. This [...]

In his latest column Ron Paul predicts that one way or another, the days of Fed autonomy are coming to an end, as they should. The Federal Reserve has demonstrated over and over again that it is a highly antiquated, unabashedly monopolistic and openly politicized creature. Its chairman, Ben Bernanke, is the politician’s best friend [...]

In the post-meltdown world, it is irresponsible, ineffective, and ultimately useless to have a serious economic debate without considering and challenging the role of the Federal Reserve.
Most people think of the Fed as an indispensable institution without which the country’s economy could not properly function. But in [...]

Is Congress just a decadent caricature of its former self, timidly executing the secret orders of the hidden elite? Sometimes it appears that way, especially when congressmen and women obediently vote on a bill without reading it and without having had the opportunity to do so, as it was made available just hours before.

In his latest column Ron Paul points out that the free market is a natural and wise regulator which works best if it is left alone.

However, the current system is not perfect either, [...]

For almost a century, the secretive and unaccountable Federal Reserve has silently manipulated the economy and the value of the dollar, and they are understandably upset about the increased scrutiny and criticism their abnormal and undemocratic activities have started to attract.

Celebrating the Fight for Freedom on the Fourth
by Ron Paul
Every year on the Fourth of July we remember our founding [...]

In today’s op-ed in the Washington Times, Ron Paul unmasks the brilliantly shallow propaganda mantra “If we don’t fight them over there, they will fight us over here” as a false choise that has been foisted upon the country by a small neoconservative elite that has come to power in both the Democratic and Republican [...]

In his latest column, Ron Paul attacks the cap and trade bill (HR 2454) as an unnecessary and wasteful effort to apply a big government solution to the disputed problem of “global warming”, while at the same time causing additional harm to the economy. As similar policies in Spain have shown over the past decade, [...]
