The number one responsibility for each of us is to change ourselves with hope that others will follow.

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 have my shortcomings. But the message, it has no shortcomings. The message of Liberty is what America is all about.
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

It's a mistake to think that poor people get the benefit from the welfare system. It's a total fraud. Most welfare go to the rich of this country: the military-industrial complex, the bankers, the foreign dictators, it's totally out of control.
Ron Paul

There is nothing wrong with describing Conservatism as protecting the Constitution, protecting all things that limit government. Government is the enemy of liberty. Government should be very restrained.
Ron Paul
Image
Your money has never been safe in the government's hands, and it never will be. Governments spend money it's just their nature.
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.

Republican control of the Senate = expanded neocon wars in Syria and Iraq. Boots on the ground are coming!
Ron Paul

This much is true: you have been lied to.
Ron Paul

Ideas are the only things that count, and politicians are, for the most part, pretty much irrelevant.
Ron Paul
Image
...[the federal] government [has no authority] to deliver a service,...and there's no evidence to show that government has ever been efficient [at] delivering...service.

1913 wasn't a very good year. 1913 gave us the income tax, the 16th amendment and the IRS.
