Ron Paul on the Central Bank and War

**
"Imagine an irresponsible teenager with an unlimited line of credit. The parents, teachers, pastors, and authorities in his life are ultimately powerless to change his habits. Now imagine that teenager armed to the teeth and also immune even from the rule of law. That is what we have with a government backed by a central bank."

- Ron Paul "End the Fed" chapter 4 p67

Read chapter 2 of "End the Fed."

Some Timely Words

"What we need is not fewer people, but more room between them, where those who would stand on their own feet, could, and those who won't, might have to. Then the welfare, the relief, the compensation, instead of being nationally sponsored cash prizes for idleness and ineptitude, could go where the old independent uncompromising fathers themselves would have intended it and blessed it."

- William Faulkner "The Duty to Be Free" (1953)
