Exclusive Conversation With Ron Paul: The Future Of The Federal Reserve

Back to blog

revolution

get citizen initiative, with a concerted program of voting 'against' any politician or party that does not enable an amendment to the constitution. use ci to get what the people want.

i hope it will be a just, frugal and pacifist society, similar to switzerland. but if sovereignty remains with politicians, america will continue along the path of militarism, environmental looting and impoverishment of the middle class. seems like an easy choice, to me.

The Fed

JFK wanted to abolish the Fed. He lost his life for that goal. See my third edition at http://www.truedemocracy.net at the icon that says Magazine.

Contact your Senators and Representatives

You can easily contact your Sen. and Rep. through the internet and ask for their support to audit the FED. Hell I even contacted other Reps. Do nothing and the Bullies think what they are doing is acceptable.

US News & WR's Federal Reserve interview of US Rep. Ron Paul

US NEWS didn't interview Dr. Paul until AFTER he had half of the members of the House as co-sponsors. Could it be do to the fact that:

1) Editor David Gergen is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR)?

2) The CFR is America's unelected "Invisible Government" exposed in:

a) Former FBI Special Agent Dan Smoot's book, "INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT"?

b) U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater's book, "WITH NO APOLOGIES"?

c) Many other well written and fully documented books?

3) The CFR's stated goal is to merge America into the United Nations?

4) One of the CFR's stated goals is to abolish the U.S. Constitution?

5) Dozens of other documented facts too numerous to itemize here?

For God, Family, Constitution, Country & Belated Justice,

THE TRUTH

It's too bad so few in this great nation know of Dr. Paul. Maybe one day, and if he runs again, we will have a president who truly will bring change; The kind of change we need. The Establishment will fall, and free exchange of ideas available here, in the Internet, will be responsible. We should all guard vehemently this medium. To quote the great Ludwig Von Mises: "When man possesses the faculties necessary to perceive it, truth will prevail of it's own accord".

THE FIRST STEP TOWARD THE END OF THE INCOME TAX

Once the Federal Reserve is exposed for the sham that it is, the Income Tax that was created at the same time (1913) will also be exposed as a fraud upon the American people. If you take into account the way that the Federal Reserve came into power (in the middle of the night during the Congressional Christmas recess), and the fact that there are still questions today about whether or not there were even enough members of Congress in attendance to ratify this so-called amendment, the whole thing has been mired in the stench of corruption and questionable practices for almost 100 years. As Thomas Jefferson said in his innaugural address, "A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, and shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and SHALL NOT TAKE FROM THE MOUTH OF LABOR THE BREAD IT HAS EARNED, THIS IS THE SUM OF GOOD GOVERNMENT".

Ron Paul understands what Thomas Jefferson and the other Founding Fathers were trying to warn us of....A Central Bank! The Federal Reserve is exactly this; a Central Bank that will eventually become too powerful, to the point where it implodes upon itself. This is what we are seeing happen with the Federal Reserve today. The time has come to expose it and shut it down once and for all!

Does USN&WR want to allow the Fed its SHADOW Status?

I guess Ron has long since passed the point of "then they ignore you," as Ghandi stated it.

To listen to Dr. Paul deflect the typical Fed-apologetic and innuendo-laced line of questioning of this interviewer is a thing of beauty.

What a rare privilege to witness a true American Patriot, a man of Character who has so clearly mastered his subject, and who so clearly sees through the web of Special Interest Elite Deceit that has poisoned our fine Nation.

Long Live Ron Paul...and may his son, Dr. Rand Paul, follow in his father's footsteps and maintain his own dignity. Our Country needs them both.
