Ron Paul: Education and the Inflation Tax

What other presidential candidate would dare to say things of this magnitude? Ron Paul is talking about shaking the establishment of the U.S. to its constitutional core. The corporate/government establishment does not Ron Paul becoming President; perhaps this is why Paul is the only candidate who hasn’t received any donations from billionaires, and has received [...]

Ron Paul: How to Restore Fiscal Sanity

Ron Paul’s ultimate aim in advocating liberty is to return centralized government power to an individual and local level. The federal government has left little doubt remaining that it cannot get its financial house in order, and what do we have to show for it?

Ron Paul: Central Banking and Total War

“It is no coincidence that the century of total war coincided with the century of central banking.” ~ Ron Paul The 20th century was perhaps the bloodiest and most violent century this planet has ever seen.

This would allow the Fed to extend credit in order to prevent short-term economic hardships. As I wrote in my article, [...]

Money and Currency in a Free Society

We live in times when government and central banks monopolize money and make it next to impossible for viable competing currencies to arise, which can make it difficult to see the possibility of other currency alternatives. Picture a new village, untouched by current monetary laws. People begin exchanging goods through the process of bartering. This [...]

Deception in “Free Market” Banking

The free market is constantly blamed for mistakes made by banks, when in reality the economic problems begin when a free market is overridden with excessive and unnecessary government law, intervention, and agencies. To grasp banking we must first learn and understand fractional reserve banking. The fractional reserve banking system gives banks the chance to [...]
