Well Ron Paul... I'm not saying he's a malcontent or anything. He might truly believe he's doing the right thing. That's why I wish him luck...
but if ya wanna know how it really is...
Nevertheless, anyone who wishes to just replace the hinges and whitewash the walls of society, when in actuality the whole frame has been eaten away
by termites.. would just be making a normally condemned building look a little nicer.
We need to completely re-do everything. It all starts with you. What do you want out of life? A paycheck and a house and some children? Or do you want
to figure out what it is that you are here on this planet to do? Are you here to obey laws made by a government owned by super rich people who can use
any means necessary to parade out any leader necessary who will convince the people to bend against their will?
Or are you here to be happy and completely free to discover?
When Ron Paul asks to go back to a gold and silver standard, basically he's asking us to either A) go to war and invade large countries whom we've
sold our gold and silver to or B) go into debt borrowing money from the same people who us into this mess in the first place to buy our gold and
silver reserves back, which will require banking, bankers, and the same players who greedily take the roll of said trust.
There are people in America that own lots of gold, but the majority of the gold owned by anyone in the US is the wealthy. They are in the know enough
to know schemes very well, and if we don't invade another country or set up another central banking institution owned by those richest people in said
America, we will go after the common people's gold, silver, any other precious resource. That will strip common people of any solid assets, and also
it will not be enough, so also perhaps secretly we will go into debt to those same said rich people and same said countries because we will need to
borrow their gold to back our currency.... which will then be the same old crap we have now.... promisary notes to pay back debt which we as the
common people never directly agreed to, had we known what we were agreeing to should we see through the propaganda.
Either that, or agree up front to be slaves and/or serfs.
I don't see Ron Paul pointing his finger at the super elite banking cartels. The Fed is not the one to worry about. Once that is abolished, we will
still be in debt to more centralized regional and world banks.
Edit to add:
Wealth cannot disappear. It can only be moved from one place to the other. In that case, you may wanna look up top at that pyramid.
