If you are against Ron Paul why are you for currency debasement?

Doesn't make much sense

Update:

How can you be pro-inflationary ponzi scheme? lol

Update 2:

Yes, gold is the only way to stop government from spending the currency into ruin. Central banking=hyperinflation.

    Are saying going back to the gold standard or something? I mean all currencies are just based on international speculation and stable economies.

    Oh. Ok. It would be difficult to do now that the West has abandoned it.

    The gold standard isn't the only remedy. In fact, it probably wouldn't be the best 'next step' to take given our inflationary monetary system. We need to implement a commodities standard first. Once this stabilizes the currency and brings value back to the Dollar, it would be much more feasible to link it to a precious metal at that time.

    But this is an idea Ron Paul even mentioned himself. http://www.usagold.com/gildedopinion/greenspan-gol...

    I'm for Ron Paul.

    Not for currency debasement.

  • Republicans don't like Ron Paul because he's not spouting Christian Conservative war mongering anti-liberal bullsh*t. The man wants the US to stop the wars, militarize the borders, rebuild the country and STOP spending. Republicans secretly don'[t want that.
