The Fourth Amendment is clear we should be secure in our persons, houses, papers, and effects, and all warrants must have probable cause. Today the government operates largely in secret, while seeking to know everything about our private lives - without probable cause and without a warrant.

By the way, when I say cut taxes, I don't mean fiddle with the code. I mean abolish the income tax and the IRS, and replace them with nothing.
Ron Paul
Image
We need a smaller and elite military, as [Donald]Rumsfeld said - and also a smaller and elite foreign policy.
Ron Paul
Image
We don't have the freedom of speech to talk about the weather. We have the first amendment so we can say some very controversial things.
Ron Paul

In the American political lexicon, 'change' always means more of the same: more government, more looting of Americans, more inflation, more police-state measures, more unnecessary war, and more centralization of power.
Ron Paul
Image
We need to take away the government's money power. The banking industry needs its welfare check ended. The dollar's soundness depends on its being untied from the machine that can make an infinite number of copies of dollars and reduce their value to zero.
Ron Paul

I'm all for raw milk. I think you should make your own choice on whether you drink raw milk or not.

I am convinced that there are more threats to American liberty within the 10-mile radius of my office on Capitol Hill than there are on the rest of the globe.
