Paul Debuts His Economic Plan

Comment

Posted: January 28, 2008

Better late than never, GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul has released his economic plan. A few highlights:

Tax Reform: Reduce the tax burden and eliminate taxes that punish investment and savings, including job-killing corporate taxes.... Spending Reform: Eliminate wasteful spending. Reduce overseas commitments. Freeze all non-defense, non-entitlement spending at current levels.... Monetary Policy Reform: Expand openness at the Federal Reserve and require the Fed to televise its meetings. Return value to our money.... Regulatory Reform: Repeal Sarbanes/Oxley regulations that push companies to seek capital outside of US markets. Stop restricting community banks from fostering local economic growth.

Ron Paul's economic plan

i'd like to add my own 'huh??' to the two others who are baffled by the "better late than never" comment.
additionally, i'd like to ask Mr. Pethokoukis, "Could you explain why, as a professional wordsmith, you chose those particular words to introduce your piece?"
eager to hear... aloha, ~c.

Ron Pauls Economics

I have read this plan in full. And so far, in my opinion, it's better than the rest.
A huge amount of our money is leaving the country. The onetary system in place, cannot sustain itself much longer. Eventually, our domestic & global partners will soon treat us like the "brother-n-law who never pays us back.
