Ron Paul, Now And Then (Politics Talk Post)

BicycleRepairMan says...

Ron Paul has always been exactly this crazy, he has a 100% consistent voting record saying he doesnt really want the government involved in anything. Thats fair enough, its his opinion. The problem now is that the entire vocal faction of the GOP has turned into the tea party, which is basically an uninformed, rabid, hypocritical, unintelligent version of Ron Pauls vision.

The problem with libertarianism like the one Ron Paul advocates is that it sounds good in a slogan, and in theory "I don't want no gov'ment up in my business!", but really, its a crazy idea. If you want a society without any goverment "interference" in your life, pack your shit an move to The Democratic Republic of Congo, thats a 100% libertarian right there. You can do whatever the fuck you want, everything is private market, including the justice system, the army,hospitals, schools and people themselves. All you need is to pay for it. Its Ron Pauls utopia. No stinking officials anywhere messing up your shit. No paperwork or anything, just free market all the way. In many ways, its exactly like the wonderful world of the Founding Fathers. You know, before they created the government and all that..

Government sucks. Hell, Democracy, in many ways, sucks. But its the only thing we've got, so we need to work with it.

Desperate upvote. People need to know this horror isn't limited to Liberia as well. Many other countries in Africa have or are facing similar horrors: Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and on and on.
