Ron Paul’s Writings
Ron Paul: A New Beginning
258 Responsesby Ron Paul America is over $16 trillion in debt. The “official” unemployment rate still hovers around 8%. Our federal government claims the right to spy on American citizens, indefinitely detain them, and even assassinate them without trial. Domestic drones fly over the country for civilian surveillance. Twelve million fewer Americans voted in 2012 than [...]
Ron Paul: Federal Flood Insurance – A Moral Hazard We Can’t Afford
123 Responsesby Ron Paul Hurricane Sandy was one of the worst natural disasters the east coast has ever seen. Clean-up and recovery will take months, if not years and estimates run in the tens of billions of dollars. Parts of New York and New Jersey will never be the same. Entire seashore communities have been wiped [...]
Ron Paul: No More Bailouts! Banks Should Be Allowed to Fail…
207 Responsesby Ron Paul French businessman and economist Jean-Baptiste Say is credited with identifying the fundamental economic principle that aggregate demand for goods in an economy will equal the aggregate supply of goods when markets are permitted to operate. Or in Say’s words, “products are paid for with products.” English classical economist David Ricardo, among others, more fully developed [...]
Ron Paul: The Internet Revolution Is a Liberty Revolution
240 Responsesby Ron Paul Until the late 1990s, individuals interested in Austrian economics, U.S. constitutional history, and libertarian philosophy had few sources of information. They had to spend hours scouring used book stores or the back pages of obscure libertarian periodicals to find the great works of Mises, Rothbard, Hayek, and other giants of liberty. Local [...]
Ron Paul: Real Unemployment Is at 22.8%
306 ResponsesRon Paul Last week, supporters of the current administration rejoiced over job numbers released by the Bureau of Labor and Statistics (BLS). For the first time since the administration came to power, the official unemployment number fell below 8%. Keynesian cheerleaders all claimed the numbers meant we are surely on the road to economic recovery, [...]
Ron Paul: We Must Fiscally Restrain Our Government
177 Responsesby Ron Paul The media insists on characterizing statements about dependency on government handouts as controversial, but in truth such statements are absolutely correct. It’s not that nearly half of Americans are dependent on government; it’s actually more than half. If one includes not just people on food stamps and welfare, but also seniors on Medicare, Social Security and [...]
Ron Paul: Why Governments Hate Gold and Love Fiat Money
195 Responsesby Ron Paul Last year the Chairman of the Federal Reserve told me that gold is not money, a position which central banks, governments, and mainstream economists have claimed is the consensus for decades. But lately there have been some high-profile defections from that consensus. As Forbes recently reported, the president of the Bundesbank (Germany’s [...]
Ron Paul: How the Fed’s “Wise Gurus” Devastate America
179 Responsesby Ron Paul One of the most enduring myths in the United States is that this country has a free market, when in reality, the market is merely the structural shell of formerly free institutions. Government pulls the strings behind the scenes. No better illustration of this can be found than in the Federal Reserve’s [...]
Ron Paul: We Can’t Remake the World with Bribes and Bombs!
354 Responsesby Ron Paul The attack on the US consulate in Libya and the killing of the US Ambassador and several aides is another tragic example of how our interventionist foreign policy undermines our national security. The more the US tries to control the rest of the world, either by democracy promotion, aid to foreign governments, [...]
