Sure its a post about his announcement that he will not seek reelection but reading through the comments it appears that Beck's audience may not be fully in agreement with him. Beck likes to talk about the same issues then consistantly discounts Paul. A good portion of the comments state they are planning on voting for him.

As Stefan Molyneux recently said:

"When the state seems to be handing over the keys to libertarians, watch out, because the collapse is imminent, and when it happens the state will hang it on the necks of the libertarians, blame it on freedom, and justify another 1000 years of collectivism."

kind of a depressing angle...

I heard that... but its not all the state... when the people actively awaken to truth, anything the state does becomes neutralized. That is the crucial difference.

An idea whose time has come. {from the people}

from the Blaze?


Everybody always talks about “issues” and which ones they are for or against… Take the people out of the equation. What do ALL the issues have in common? Well, the funding of course.

Prior to 1913, every single American had direct veto power to the spending policies of the federal government. Because if the government wanted to borrow money, it had to go to the people for it. There was no central bank.

It had to sell bonds. If you didn’t want to go to war, you didn’t buy bonds. If you didn’t want the pork project that the government had in mind, you didn’t buy the bonds.

It was a very simple, effective system. A Republican [form of government, not party] system that gave direct veto power to the people on economic policy. And by extension, a direct veto on all policies foreign and domestic. And it worked very well until 1913. That’s how come government managed to stay small, because it didn’t have an unlimited credit line to go on a shopping spree for 97 years… and make you pay for it.

The “bond” system ensured that the people that DIDN’T WANT the “issue” didn’t have to PAY for the issue. See why the founders created it that way?

Anyone who is talking about ANYTHING other than ending the fed for the 2012 Presidential election has no true interest in ending YOUR issue. Ron Paul will end the Fed. Don’t believe it? Just Google him and you’ll see. He wrote the book on it!

Sadly that was on a brand new account so there is no history on the site but that is a very solid comment. I went over there hoping that it was someone who may have made several similar comments in the past.

How many of those comments are from people who were already Paul supporters?

Be wary. I have read a handful of some pretty amazing comments on the blaze and I don't mean amazing in a good way. It's to be expected though when you consider the type of people someone like Waterworks Beck attracts.
