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

Ron Paul
Times of tragedy and war naturally bring out strong emotions...

Yet nothing would please terrorists more than if we willingly gave up our cherished liberties because of their actions.
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
