Again...Please get rid of INFLATION TAX from Tea Party site
Unlike the Nov 5th Bomb....this one is for the masses.....Please gear the language as such..."Inflation Tax" is a total non starter with the masses we are trying to reach..
I cant emphasize this enough....I know its your project and not mine...but what a shame it would be if this was reported in MSM as "an anti-monetary policy" effort...
That will not excite anyone....Keep it to taxes...war...corruption...illegal immigration.....
I wholeheartedly agree.
leave it alone dude ... if you don't get the inflation tax ... google it
same with everybody else who doesn't get it. Only Ron Paul supporters will be donating. So if a supporter doesn't get "inflation tax" they need to be educated on it too.
Getting rid of the inflation tax is one of Ron Paul's own platforms.
so is voting against pork barrel spending.....so is being opposed to high tarriffs...Originally Posted by literatim
but to the public its BORING..
do u really want this thing spun into "RP supporters are planing a massive online protest donation against inflation".....Zzzzzzzzzzzz
No, we want this spun into something the masses get get into...anti-high taxes...anti-IRS...anti-war etc...
Monetary policy may excite us...but it wont open the wallets of the sheep we are trying to reach
Hey, I think sheep is a little insulting. Perhaps people have just grown apathetic and never had practice thinking about government or are totally out of practice because of how crappy the options have been. :-)
Why not just say "oppressive taxation" or something like that. Why pick out "inflation tax"? Why not income tax? If you say something more general like "excessive taxation" or "oppressive taxation" it is much easier for the visitor to relate. Everyone can relate to oppressive taxation. A lot of people will have no clue what "inflation tax" means. Why make it hard for people? You just want them to come in, read it, and QUICKLY say to themselves "hell yeah, screw all these taxes!!" not "what is an 'inflation tax'??"
"It is no crime to be ignorant of economics, which is, after all, a specialized discipline and one that most people consider to be a 'dismal science.' But it is totally irresponsible to have a loud and vociferous opinion on economic subjects while remaining in this state of ignorance." - Murray N. Rothbard
Ron Paul has stated this is a campaign about ideas. We need to get the people thinking about the inflation tax. Once they understand that, it will forever change their view of government and it's spending sprees.
I think it's less boring than you might think. Recently, Ron Paul has been commenting on the popularity of the monetary aspect of his message. There were some stories following one of his University rallies (possibly in Michigan) that his monetary message got the biggest cheers.
Money and economics are important, especially given the current headlines on US financial news reports.
What? Ron calls it the inflation tax on the national debate stage and has stopped in the middle of interviews to walk people through the logic of it. And that's why he is doing as well as he is.
Stop second guessing every single thing. If Ron pandered like half of you seem to want him to he'd be just like the rest of them.
