I think the policy makers like the idea of being the boss. I mean people who like to boss other people around like to go into politics so they can become the boss.

More quotes by Ron Paul
If people won't spend any money, the government has this moral obligation to do it.
Ron Paul
All initiation of force is a violation of someone else's rights, whether initiated by an individual or the state, for the benefit of an individual or group of individuals, even if it's supposed to be for the benefit of another individual or group of individuals.
Ron Paul
But whether the resistance against government tyrants is non-violent or physically violent, the effort to overthrow state oppression qualifies as true patriotism.
Ron Paul
Nothing good can come from the Federal Reserve. It is the biggest taxer of them all. Diluting the value of the dollar by increasing its supply is a vicious, sinister tax on the poor and middle class.
Ron Paul
I think Israel should be treated as an independent nation and not a puppet of our state.
Ron Paul
Every country ended slavery without civil war US could have.
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
I would absolutely never use the federal government to enforce the law of using marijuana
Ron Paul
Once again, President Clinton is using American troops to deflect attention from his record of lies, distortions, obstructions of justice and abuse of power.
Ron Paul
As recent as the year 2000 we won elections by saying we shouldn't be the policemen of the world, and that we should not be nation building. And its time we got those values back into this country.
Ron Paul
The sad thing is, our foreign policy WILL change eventually, as Rome's did, when all budgetary and monetary tricks to fund it are exhausted.
Ron Paul
To me, to be a conservative means to conserve the good parts of America and to conserve our Constitution.
Ron Paul
Foreign aid is taking money from the poor people of a rich country and giving it to the rich people of a poor country.
Ron Paul
Is it any more moral to dilute the value of the purchasing power of the money you hold in your wallet than it is for the farmer to dilute the milk supply with water?
Ron Paul
Americans are tired of the games and the lies of today's media. They want the truth. Imagine this. No censors, no barricades, no statists. We will be able to engage viewers directly on subjects that matter most to them, from finances to civil liberties to foreign policy.
Ron Paul
Do they think if we destroy our freedoms for the terrorists they will no longer have a reason to attack us?
Ron Paul
Some members of Congress will claim that the federal government needs the power to monitor Americans in order to allow the government to operate more efficiently. I would remind my colleagues that, in a constitutional republic, the people are never asked to sacrifice their liberties to make the jobs of government officials easier.
Ron Paul
Capitalism should not be condemned, since we haven't had capitalism.
Ron Paul
The problem is that democracy is not freedom. Democracy is simply majoritarianism, which is inherently incompatible with real freedom. Our founding fathers clearly understood this.
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
