Governments create chaos to use it to their advantage. Our government almost came to a stop last summer. It formed a committee to figure out where it could cut spending to balance the budget. That deadline passed last month and no concensus was found. Where was the hue and cry to get government spending under control? Our government is de-stablizing the entire world with its inflationary, low interest rate policies, made possible by the Federal Reserve System. All the central banks are in trouble. Are any of them doing what they should be doing to strengthen their currency and economy? No! Are any of them balancing their budgets? No! All governments are in it together as they march toward a one world government! All we need is a global monetary crisis and the U.S. will lie down and give up “our” rights to whoever promises the fix the problem. They can see the end of the race, which is to destroy this country.

We are losing are rights at an unprecedented rate and who is complaining? Most Americans can’t even understand what I’m writing. Sports statistics are on the tip of their tongue. But what their representatives in government are doing is beyond them, nor do they care to find out.

The enemy is running for the finish line. They can see the end in sight. The average American doesn’t even realize he’s in a race for his life. Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate who sees clearly. Unless Americans wake up soon, all is lost. Government will not fix the economy or protect our rights.

By all means possible, the government is stealing our Second Amendment right to bear arms. It is giving away our rights to the UN. President Obama has outlawed the M1 rifle and stopped all importation to the country and will destroy the millions already here. The enemy is at our gates! There is no incentive for government to fix anything. We must force government to respect our rights. Supporting Ron Paul is the strongest way to protect ourselves. If Ron Paul isn’t elected, it won’t matter who is. Support Ron Paul 2012.com. Do it NOW!

Did you know that the TSA has spread beyond airports, that it is on the streets stopping innocent citizens going about their lives? Did you know that the FDA has its people shutting down dairies that don’t pasteurize milk and closing down organic food co-ops? If this isn’t government run riot, then what is? These are examples of tyranny.

The bureaucrats are running amok, far exceeding the legal mandate Congress gave them. These power hungry groups that Congress created to protect us are actually harming us. They have their own agendas to follow, and our rights are not part of their agenda. If we don’t stop them NOW, they will over run us.

Dr. Paul understands that the federal government must be dismantled in the same way it was created. He proposes to eliminate the Dept. of Education, the Federal Drug Administration, the Federal Reserve System, and others. This must be done–the sooner the better. This is the only way to stop government’s power. We must get this message to everyone else.

The federal government is doing violence on its citizens. It is robbing them of the purchasing power of the dollar (by inflating the credit and currency to expand government). It is impoverishing the middle class, which is the working backbone of the country. Its tentacles have bought off nearly every voter through federal money. Who isn’t receiving federal money–elderly, students, small businesses, home owners and buyers, lenders and bankers, stock market brokers demanding cheap money. Who isn’t bought off or working for the federal government? What price this free or cheap money? Your liberty!

Ron Paul is the only candidate who knows what to do about it. The media understand this, so they ignore him and hope he goes away. It is imperative that everyone understand that we are trading our freedom for a depreciating currency. In the end, we will have no money and no freedom. We are being enslaved.

As president, Ron Paul can stop this insidious cancer from killing us. It must be done at this time, at this 2012 election. If he doesn’t win, it won’t matter who does. George Washington was not happy about leaving Mt. Vernon to fight in the American Revolution. But he realized the time had come to do something about England’s enslavement of  the colonies. He gave all he had.

NOW is the time for us to stop our enslavement. It must be done NOW while we still have free elections and we have a candidate who knows what to do. Every vote should go to Ron Paul–every Democrat, Republican, Independent, Libertarian and so on. Unless the tide is turned now, it won’t matter what political party you belong to.  We’ve had Democrats and Republicans since Thomas Jefferson shouting their promises of what they could do for us. In reality, what they’ve done is enslave us. None of them have protected our rights. Without our rights, nothing else matters. There’s only one candidate who is talking about securing our rights by dismantling the government which is usurping our rights by its cancerous growth.

Ron Paul, Dr. Ron Paul, is the ONLY candidate who will kill the cancer, save the Republic, secure our property, install rationality, common sense and American values into government. We must elect him and to do so, we must all join together to save the country. NOW is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. That means you!

Neither the Republicans or the Democrats are balanced. Neither one are for a sound currency backed by gold, because that would limit their power and control. A whole brained approach would include both right and left hemispheres and different outcomes. Our inalienable rights with the Bill of Rights are not to be divided between two parties and the voter left to choose which group of rights he wants at that time and what he’s willing to give up. The federal government has successfully used this approach to divide and conquer the nation.

The Democrats and the Republicans ought to be supporting the Constitution, which gives us all of our rights while diminishing none of them. Since they have proven that their own agendas are more important than our rights, we the people must demand our rights. A good place to start is supporting Ron Paul, who uses his whole brain. He supports the Constitution and eliminates those programs running contrary to it. He is the only truly qualified candidate for president.

We don’t have to settle for half-brained schemes. Republicans and Democrats who support individual rights over big government power deserve our support. Don’t let politicians keep pulling the wool over your eyes. Let them know you want all your rights and freedoms back. No more trying to take away our right to bear arms! No more high taxes, deficit-spending and inflation! No more destroying the dollar! Demand the right to own guns, gold, drugs, property, decide to abort or not to abort (not government’s domain or decision). We are a FREE people and ought to act like it. Let’s try FREEDOM for a change!

I’ve been emailing newspaper editors around the country asking for Ron Paul coverage. Please do the same. Thanks

A real expert on the Depression is former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. He explains in his article “Gold and Economic Freedom” (available in my book “Why Gold?”), “When business in the United States underwent a mild contraction in 1927, the Federal Reserve created more paper reserves in the hope of forestalling any possible bank reserve shortage.” To lower interest rates the Fed “pumped excessive paper reserves into American banks.” The excess credit “spilled over into the stock market–triggering a fantastic speculative boom. Belatedly, the Federal Reserve officials attempted to sop up the excess reserves …but it was too late…the American economy collapsed.” Then it was necessary to go as far down the road of depression as they had advanced on that of credit expansion. “The Great Depression should have signaled that something was basically wrong with a system that permits such a catastrophe to occur at all.”

Bernanke is taking the reason for the Federal Reserve which was created in 1913 as accurate, i.e., if credit were non-stop there would be no depressions. Perhaps if Bernanke were also a student of Henry Hazlitt and Ludwig von Mises, he would understand sound economics. Today, Bernanke and the Fed are trying to keep the U.S. economy afloat on credit. Instead they are drowning everyone in U.S. dollars, forcing down interest rates instead of letting the marketplace adjust interest rates as necessary for a healthy economy, and causing all prices and costs to rise. If they continue their course, which Bernanke claims they will for another two years, prices will continue to rise, the dollar depreciate, and the inevitable bust will be deeper and longer than the Great Depression.

Bernanke is no expert on the Depression, on the way the Federal Reserve affects the economy, nor on the results of his current monetary policy. All one has to do is look at the price of gold. It is signalling much higher prices in the future. It is saying the Federal Reserve and the U.S. government are out of control. They are destroying the purchasing power of the dollar. Worldwide people are fleeing dollars for gold, irregardless of what Bernanke believes.  

Please check out www.campaignforliberty.com and www.downsizedc.org. They’ll keep you informed and connected to your Congressmen. They have been doing a fabulous job of protecting our freedom by stopping the above mentioned bills from being passed. Congress is out of control and it’s up to us to stop them.
