Ron Paul, a 10-term Republican Congressman from Texas's 14th District, is currently the ranking member of the House Financial Services Committee's Subcommittee on Domestic and International Monetary Policy, Trade, and Technology. He has been named "Taxpayers' Best Friend" for 10 consecutive years by the National Taxpayers' Union. Ron Paul is also the author of several books on monetary policy and economics.
The Four-Point Plan

   1. Tax Reform: Reduce the tax burden and eliminate taxes that punish investment and savings, including job-killing corporate taxes.
   2. Spending Reform: Eliminate wasteful spending. Reduce overseas commitments. Freeze all non-defense, non-entitlement spending at current levels.
   3. Monetary Policy Reform: Expand openness at the Federal Reserve and require the Fed to televise its meetings. Return value to our money.
   4. Regulatory Reform: Repeal Sarbanes/Oxley regulations that push companies to seek capital outside of US markets. Stop restricting community banks from fostering local economic growth.


1. Tax Reform

    * Eliminate Taxes on Dividends and Savings. The basis of capitalism is savings, and Americans who do so should be rewarded.
          o Pass HJ Res. 23 to encourage savings over consumption.
    * Repeal the Death Tax. Attacking small businesses and breaking up family farms smothers growth and kills jobs.
          o Pass H.R. 2734 to make the Bush tax cuts permanent.
    * Cut Taxes for Working Seniors. Grandmothers and grandfathers working to make ends meet should keep all the fruits of their labor.
          o Pass H.R. 191 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to repeal the inclusion in gross income of Social Security benefits.
    * Eliminate Taxes on Social Security Benefits. That money belongs to seniors, not the government. They paid into the system for a lifetime, and they should be free to spend every penny as they see fit.
          o Pass H.R. 192 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to repeal the 1993 increase in taxes on Social Security benefits.
    * Accelerate Depreciation on Investment. We need to help companies grow and create jobs.
          o Pass H.R. 4995 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to reduce corporate marginal income tax rates.

    * Eliminate Taxes on Capital Gains. Investment should be embraced and rewarded.
          o Pass H.J. Res 23 (The “Liberty Amendment”), proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States relative to abolishing personal income, estate, and gift taxes and prohibiting the United States Government from engaging in business in competition with its citizens.
    * Eliminate Taxes on Tips.The single parents and working students who earn their income chiefly through tips deserve to keep all of their money. This tax on "estimated income" is unfair and should be ended.
          o Pass H.R. 3664 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide that tips shall not be subject to income or employment taxes.
    * Support the Mortgage Cancellation Relief Act. Working families who lost their homes should not be punished a second time with a big IRS bill.
          o Pass H.R. 1876 to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to exclude from the gross income of individual taxpayers discharges of indebtedness attributable to certain forgiven residential mortgage obligations.

2. Spending Reform

    * Reduce Overseas Military Commitments. Our bases and troops should be on our soil.
          o It's time to stop subsidizing our trading partners in Europe, Japan and South Korea.
    * Freeze Non-Defense, Non-Entitlement Spending at Current Levels
          o I vote against all bloated, pork laden spending bills and will veto them as president.

3. Monetary Policy Reform

    * Televise Federal Open Market Committee Meetings. An institution as powerful as the Federal Reserve deserves full public scrutiny.
    * Expand Transparency and Accountability at the Federal Reserve
          o Pass H.R. 2754 to require the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to continue to make available to the public on a weekly basis information on the measure of the M3 monetary aggregate and its components.

    * Return Value to Our Money. Legalize gold and silver as a competing currency.
          o Level the long-term boom and bust business cycle by passing H.R. 4683, which would repeal provisions of the federal criminal code relating to issuing coins of gold, silver, or other metal for use as current money and making or possessing likenesses of such coins.

4. Regulatory Reform

    * Repeal Sarbanes/Oxley. It has seriously wounded our capital markets and helped make the UK a financial center at our expense.
          o Ending these misguided regulations would bring jobs flooding back to the United States
          o Pass H.R. 1049 to reform Sarbanes-Oxley and reduce the burden it places on small businesses. 
    * Repeal or Remove Costly and Unnecessary Federal Regulations. Neighbors know best how to help their neighbors.
          o We need to make it easier for community banks, credit unions, and other financial institutions to better serve their communities and to help people in these communities get access to credit and capital.
          o Pass H.R. 1869 to enhance the ability of community banks to foster economic growth and serve their communities, boost small businesses, increase individual savings, and for other purposes.

There are a few good nuggets in this platform, but basically it's designed to protect the rich.  America is tired of giving the privileged classes a free ride.  That's probably why Ron Paul's ratings are consistently in the single digits.

Okay fine vote for your CFR Democrat and hope you enjoys the ride to the FEMA Camps.

Maybe it'll take the NWO getting rid of a few million so the rest of us can get back Constitutional government.

..and how is he to do this w/o Legislative input  ?

Even if this were his agenda, which I have yet to see any proof of, The Reps and the Senators have to vote on such a measure before such laws get passed.

Study a little history and offer some proof.

So what you're sayng is that, even though he stands for nothing that people believe in, people shouldn't worry and keep voting for him, because Congress will be around to stop him??

That makes no sense at all.  Huh

See what Ron Paul stands for versus the other candidates and you tell me.

Ron Paul gets the most private donations of any candidate.  There's a reason for that.  It's called liberty and the Constitution and his clear voting record.

Barack Obama can't say that.

Vol,

I don't know why you keep plastering that website all over this board.  The chart is so one-sided, overly simplistic and misleading that it actually turns people against Ron Paul because they see him as nothing but a nutcase supported by nutcases.

Yeah anyone who supports Constitutional governmental and wants to get rid of the corrupt Federal-Reserve and their fractional reserve banking system.

Turns who against Ron Paul ??  People like you who have no idea of Bilderberger operations.  People like you who haven't watched ENDGAME yet.  People like you who will won't believe martial law is coming upon us until you or someone you know gets thrown into a FEMA Camp.

In a way I hope the NWO does throw the dumb masses into FEMA Camps.  This way we can kill off all the idiots and get our republic back.  SO go ahead live in denial.  See you in the FEMA Camps.   Grin Grin Grin

Well, to paraphrase Barack, "YES HE CAN!"

Most of his donations come from individual citizens, he doesn't take any PAC or lobbyist money and, in February, he raised 57 MILLION dollars.   That's an all-time campaign record, and then some.  So how much did Ron Paul raise last month?

And anyone who votes against women's rights and to help the rich does not have a clean voting record.  In my book, they are scum of the earth.

If the NWO is trying to revoke the 1st, 2nd & 4th Amendments then what makes you think they won't revoke the 19th & 13th.

Amendment 19 - Women's Suffrage. Ratified 8/18/1920. History

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.

Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.


Amendment 13 - Slavery Abolished. Ratified 12/6/1865. History

1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

He's a Bilderberger candidate selected to give the Bush-bashers, liberals, and metrosexual-phile women someone to look up to all the while being Bilderberg funded and controlled.
