They've been taught by too many that this war was necessary when it isn't.
Ron Paul

It is true that liberty is not free, nor is it easy. But tyranny - even varying degrees of it - is much more difficult, and much more expensive. The time has come to rein in the federal government, put it on a crash diet, and let the people keep their money and their liberty.
Ron Paul
Image
I'd like to think of myself as the flavor of the decade.
Ron Paul
Image
Liberty has meaning only if we still believe in it when terrible things happen and a false government security blanket beckons.
Ron Paul
Image
I wouldn't vote against getting rid of the Jim Crow laws.
Ron Paul

Why is patriotism thought to be blind loyalty to the government and the politicians who run it, rather than loyalty to the principles of liberty and support for the people? Real patriotism is a willingness to challenge the government when it's wrong.
Ron Paul
Image
Politicians throughout history have tried to solve every problem conceivable to man, always failing to recognize that many of the problems we face result from previous so-called political solutions. Government cannot be the answer to every human ill. Continuing to view more government as the solution to problems will only make matters worse.

I never voted to spend one penny of Social Security money.

The Boston bombing provided the opportunity for the government to turn what should have been a police investigation into a military-style occupation of an American city. This unprecedented move should frighten us as much or more than the attack itself.

You know, the greatest hoax I think that has been around in many, many years if not hundreds of years has been this hoax on the environment and global warming. You notice they don't call it global warming anymore. It's weather control.
Ron Paul
Image
Right now, nobody legalized paper money. Where did that come from.
Ron Paul
Image
All branches of our government today are controlled by individuals who use their power to undermine liberty and enhance the welfare/warfare state-and frequently their own wealth and power.
Ron Paul
Image
What we need is a strong defense, but right now there is zero chance of an invasion by another country and right now we have more firepower than all other countries put together.
Ron Paul
Image
The number one responsibility for each of us is to change ourselves with hope that others will follow.
Ron Paul
Image
I believe that Israel is one of our most important friends in the world.
Ron Paul
Image
One thing is clear: The Founding Fathers never intended a nation where citizens would pay nearly half of everything they earn to the government.
Ron Paul
Image
So the time line of when we consider a fetus 'human' is arbitrary after conception.
Ron Paul
Image
Throughout the 20th century, the Republican Party benefited from a non-interventionist foreign policy. Think of how Eisenhower came in to stop the Korean War. Think of how Nixon was elected to stop the mess in Vietnam.

This much is true: you have been lied to.

I lean toward a flat tax. But I want to make it real flat, like ZERO.
