More quotes by Ron Paul
It is not democracy to send in billions of dollars to push regime change overseas. It isn't democracy to send in the NGOs to re-write laws and the constitution in places like Ukraine. It is none of our business.
Ron Paul
Sanctions are not diplomacy. They are a precursor to war and an embarrassment to a country that pays lip service to free trade.
Ron Paul
I lean toward a flat tax. But I want to make it real flat, like ZERO.
Ron Paul
Maybe we ought to consider a Golden Rule in foreign policy: Don't do to other nations what we don't want happening to us. We endlessly bomb these countries and then we wonder why they get upset with us?
Ron Paul
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.
Ron Paul
We can achieve much more in peace than we can ever achieve in these needless, unconstitutional, undeclared wars.
Ron Paul
I want to just obey the Constitution.The Constitution says only gold and silver can be legal tender.
Ron Paul
The ultimate goal of the anti-religious elites is to transform America into a completely secular nation, a nation that is legally and culturally biased against Christianity.
Ron Paul
It would help the poor people who need jobs. Minimum wage is a mandate. We're against mandates so why should we have it? It would be very beneficial.
Ron Paul
When we give government the power to make medical decisions for us, we, in essence, accept that the state owns our bodies.
Ron Paul
A failing state cannot stop a revolution whose time has come.
Ron Paul
Capitalism should not be condemned, since we haven't had capitalism.
Ron Paul
If people won't spend any money, the government has this moral obligation to do it.
Ron Paul
The federal government cannot maintain a budget surplus any more than an alcoholic can leave a fresh bottle of whiskey untouched in the cupboard.
Ron Paul
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
An idea whose time has come cannot be stopped by any army or any force.
Ron Paul
Unfortunately, the greater the humanitarian outreach, the greater the violence required to achieve it.
Ron Paul
There's a a right to privacy for all individuals and all who have legal rights - and that includes the unborn. As an obstetrician, if I cause any harm to a fetus, I will be sued. If someone kills or harms a fetus they're liable in a court of law.
Ron Paul
Once you get the government involved in agriculture you'll have nothing but problems and expenses.
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
