Thread: Something Big is Going On by Dr. Ron Paul

Something Big is Going On


The following statement is written by Congressman Paul about the pending financial disaster. He will introduce this statement as a special order and insert it into the Congressional Record next week. Fortunately, we have the opportunity to debut it first on the Campaign for Liberty blog. It reads as follows:

I have, for the past 35 years, expressed my grave concern for the future of America. The course we have taken over the past century has threatened our liberties, security and prosperity. In spite of these long-held concerns, I have days—growing more frequent all the time—when I’m convinced the time is now upon us that some Big Events are about to occur. These fast-approaching events will not go unnoticed. They will affect all of us. They will not be limited to just some areas of our country. The world economy and political system will share in the chaos about to be unleashed.

Though the world has long suffered from the senselessness of wars that should have been avoided, my greatest fear is that the course on which we find ourselves will bring even greater conflict and economic suffering to the innocent people of the world—unless we quickly change our ways.

America, with her traditions of free markets and property rights, led the way toward great wealth and progress throughout the world as well as at home. Since we have lost our confidence in the principles of liberty, self reliance, hard work and frugality, and instead took on empire building, financed through inflation and debt, all this has changed. This is indeed frightening and an historic event.

The problem we face is not new in history. Authoritarianism has been around a long time. For centuries, inflation and debt have been used by tyrants to hold power, promote aggression, and provide “bread and circusesâ€

[quote]The choices are clear: it shouldn’t be difficult, but the big event now unfolding gives us a great opportunity to reverse the tide and resume the truly great American Revolution started in 1776. Opportunity knocks in spite of the urgency and the dangers we face.

Let’s make “Something Big is Happeningâ€

Most Americans do not even realize how bad it is getting ready to get...

I am not hearing the "Great Depression" ... I am hearing the "Greater Depression"

He is such a smart man. He has been warning us for a long time now.

I'm pretty worried about the economy and trying to prepare for tough times. I'm also really worried about war with Iran and how we can possibly have the resources to do this.

Ron Paul is a very cool cat.

I wouldn't doubt this for an instant. The "something big" that Dr. Paul talks about is even more far reaching than the above essay entails.

I'm still having a hard time accepting that he dropped out of the Presidential race.
