Guest A/D Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 I'm a lot more more sympathetic to that idea than I let on. However I'm still down with electronic music and hot showers.

Unfortunately, his principles are insane. Let's talk about this. I took this position until I found out more about him. I agree - but I think in the majority of cases he's saying he wouldn't let those principles affect us as citizens. My main difference is that I support social programs. I think we should have some form of healthcare, good public schools across the country, etc. I also think we need federal bodies to enforce workers' rights and economic/environmental constraints on corporations. However, I'm starting to think he would do more good than harm in office. Who knows.

awepittance Posted December 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 (edited) Paul comes from a paleo conservative faction of the libertarian movement. He does not represent at least in my understanding the most common forms of it. It can all be traced back to a strange proto Alex Jones proto William Cooper movement called the John Birch society. They were popular around the time of Dr Strangelove, and the reference General JAck Ripper makes about Fluoride being a commie plot is directly a parody of them. edit: It= this paleo conservative wing of the libertarian movement Edited December 24, 2011 by Awepittance Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide awepittance's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/70683-ron-paul-climbs-in-the-polls/page/2/#findComment-1718819 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's backing him financially? Given the information posted here: http://www.opensecrets.org/pfds/CIDsummary.php?CID=n00005906&year=2010 I'd guess all kinds of corporations which are in natural resources will financially back his campaign. Apart from all the stuff that's dug up from under the ground the food industry would back him as well, I guess. In short, the past century industries will be fond of his libertarian approach to running a country.
