  • Ron Paul, Former U.S. Congressman
    In conversation with Josh Richman, Political Reporter, Bay Area News Group
    The term "liberty" is so commonly used in our country that you might say it has become a mere cliché. But do we know what it means? What it promises? How it factors into our daily lives? And most important, can we recognize tyranny when it is sold to us disguised as a form of liberty? Paul posits that to believe in liberty is not to believe in any particular social and economic outcome. It is to trust in the spontaneous order that emerges when the state does not intervene in human volition and human cooperation. It permits people to work out their problems for themselves, build lives for themselves, take risks and accept responsibility for the results, and make their own decisions. In fact, Paul calls liberty the seed of America.

    I have been a long time follower of Ron Paul and like his ideas. But I have changed my opinion about gold . Gold has been only a widely accepted medium which carried the message/information . But it was diversion from the reality for a long time. It was a form of mobile ledger . The message don't need such a medium anymore..

    I don't get how a man who spoke of the dangers of fiat currency backed by nothing so passionately can speak so favorably of a "currency" that isn't intangible what so ever and that only exists on a computer screen and in someone's mind. I have admired and respected Ron Paul for a long time and have learned a lot from him but this makes no sense.

      Emp is definitely in the cards. Whether malicious or from the sun. If you know the dollar milkshake theory, what's going on right now with OPEC and BRICS is other country's non cooperation in the dollar milkshake theory. Bitcoin milkshake theory is most likely the short term play, but use it to get land,guns, and metals

    Bitcoin is a mania fueled by federal reserve money printing (and money printing by governments all over the world). There's no scarcity of digital currencies (hell, even MIT has a class on creating cryptocurrencies), so once the money printing stops, so will the increase in crypto "value"

Just the prospect that people who still think Bitcoin will make them rich already missed the bus.
