About Us
- RonPaulForums.com is an independent grassroots outfit not officially connected to Ron Paul but dedicated to his mission. For more information see our Mission Statement.
Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.
It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.
Our words make us the ghosts that we are.
Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.
at the end of the day, all one can really do is plant seeds of knowledge.
on RPF's attempts to discuss the proper size of government will draw fire.
in real life. simply pepper your conversations with the proper size of government and the role that "money" plays.
and what is "money" anyhow?
that is what I do.
RPF's is an anarchist dominated website. it is a great place to sharpen your skills against their arguments.
but in the real world. they are irrelevant.
why? they lack the ability to organize.
they ARE very passionate. and they are also STUPID enough to argue with an HVAC/R tech.
over HVAC/R subjects.

learn how to write concisely. and make your point.
do you seek to enlighten. or simply display your knowledge Mr Peacock?
as an instructor... I know your type.
excess verbiage. is indicative of a small intellect. and a weak ego.
I possess the ability to make my points succinctly. you do not.

My experience has been the opposite. I found that they are much more plugged/cemented into their ideology that it is literally a religion to them.
Try telling any devout person, their God does not exist. Same with liberal/progressives. They are literally capitulating to their ideology.

9/11 Thermate experiments
Winston Churchhill on why the U.S. should have stayed OUT of World War I
"I am so %^&*^ sick of this cult of Ron Paul. The Paulites. What is with these %^&*^ people? Why are there so many of them?" YouTube rant by "TheAmazingAtheist"
"We as a country have lost faith and confidence in freedom." -- Ron Paul
"It can be a challenge to follow the pronouncements of President Trump, as he often seems to change his position on any number of items from week to week, or from day to day, or even from minute to minute." -- Ron Paul
people can't tell the difference between government and "the" government. Actually, I think they do. Clearly Ron Paul is not an anarchist. He flat out says, you always want government. In a perfect world each individual conducts their own government, they govern themselves, this is self-government.
people do the exact same thing with the word anarchy. It has a dual meaning just like government.
We have a bunch of people bickering over semantics for the last 10 years here, trying to control the "narrative".
At one time, the place was somewhere that people with a common goal could come and seek out the truth about what was happening in the USA. People wanted justice, accountability and responsibility from each other and this was a place to talk about it and find it.
Somewhere between learning about Ron Paul's extremely nuanced yet common sense approach to liberty and trying to take over the Federal Government, propaganda and legalism was introduced.
Half the people wanted to expand on the nuances of liberty while the other half wanted to embrace the common sense outcomes of getting results.
There was a huge counter movement operation targeted at what Ron Paul was saying and doing that tried to pick apart every aspect from the ground up.
Eventually the loss of momentum came with successive electoral defeats and culminated in the successor to the movement taking the exact wrong tact at the exact wrong time.
This was the final severance between the two major factions in Ron Paul's liberty movement. Although for many of us, it didn't come as a surprise. Some of us were able to explore the nuances of liberty while remaining practical and motivated.
Others lost bits and pieces of it over time and only hang on here because because(the wonderful things he does? lol late night typo) that is a fire that burned hot, even if it is now only a faint ember.
for some reason it was the ancaps who seemed to jump ship for the fascist murder train the fastest. Maybe they were giving up on Rothbards broken ideas, or maybe they just liked the trendy extreme ideas all along?
This site seems like a spoof of a liberty site now.
Mean while I just did my MBA and all the lecturers used Austrian economics. Course was all Schumpeter, Hayek and Mises.
In my time here New Zealand has also gone from around 12th to 1st ish on most freedom and prosperity indexes.
I am in North Carolina for the next six months if anyone has an urge to beat the $#@! out of me for being a man in a dress. I here that's local sport in the USA.
I have like one neg rep in my entire history, and have always found one account easily sufficient to argue both sides of any issue.
Still. Its weird. The world is on the verge of decision time. Kind of exciting time to be alive.
Also go watch Moana. $#@!ing on point.
In New Zealand:
The Coastguard is a Charity
Air Traffic Control is a private company run on user fees
The DMV is a private non-profit
Rescue helicopters and ambulances are operated by charities and are plastered with corporate logos
The agriculture industry has zero subsidies
5% of the national vote, gets you 5 seats in Parliament
A tax return has 4 fields
Business licenses aren't a thing
Prostitution is legal
We have a constitutional right to refuse any type of medical care
Down in NZ? That's terrific! The ideas, they're spreading....
Indeed. It's got a lot going for it.In my time here New Zealand has also gone from around 12th to 1st ish on most freedom and prosperity indexes.
True, me too, though it does sometimes confuse people.I have like one neg rep in my entire history, and have always found one account easily sufficient to argue both sides of any issue.
