I added captions! They’re mostly in sync with the video, except for a couple parts. I’ve gotten requests to put up a version without background music, so if it’s too loud, you can watch that here: www.youtube.com The songs in the video are “Lazy Gun” and “Move On” by Jet, from the album “Get Born”, which you can buy at Amazon (or where music is sold): www.amazon.com (Making sure the video doesn’t get muted, hahaha). This video contains footage from C-SPAN, and other networks.

@madest Well, you sure fit your description of a simpleton. You don’t have any thoughts or arguments on your own, you can only parrot government propaganda. And to make you look even more foolish, you start talking about 9/11 which has nothing to do with the issue. Not once, not even once have you been able to respond to anything I’ve said. All you can do is rant. Read the books I mentioned. But of course, as a yank you’re allergic to education. Go wave your flag, troll.

@vindician, The problem with simpletons is they’re too stupid to know they’re wrong and they think everyone around them is dumber than they are. You’ve proven to me you’re incapable of grasping the problem. To you it’s a great dark government boogie man called the fed. There are morons like you who think our government brought down the twin towers. Some of them wear tin foil hats. You can now join them as a certifiable crazy moron and share tea in your padded room. I’ll send you some foil.

@madest And still, there were 100,000s of pages of regluation and 1000s of full time federal regulators working at a myriad of different federal agencies even before 2003. To think that a few thousand pages of more regulation and a few thousand more regulators would have prevented the meltdown is simply insane. It amazes me that even after all the world has lived through, people still don’t get it. How can anyone be so utterly and completely blind?

@madest Oh, what an eloquent arguement indeed! I’ve schooled you on this subject. If you actually think that a giant counterfeit organisation which in less than 100 years depreciated the dollar to less than 5 percent of its 1913 value, and was created specifically to be the lender of last resort to private banks, has nothing to do with the meltdown then you are in seroius need of some education.

Im a teen, I’ll admit it. Yes, a child watching politics. I have searched for candidates in 08. But it took me till 09 to find out about Ron Paul. He’s the politician I’ve been waiting for. When I wrote my own economic theory & gave it to my Dad, he read the pages, smilled at me & said I sound like Ronald Reagen. That made me happy. I thought Reagen was great, but my hero is Thomas Jefferson. Ron Paul reminds me of both Reagen & Jefferson. Some of our best presidents. (= Jefferson was the Best.

@vindician You can start learning by reading Tom Woods’ “Meltdown”, Murray Rothbard’s “The Case Against the Fed”, “What Has Government Done to Our Money” and “The Mystery of Banking”, Guido Hülsmann’s “The Ethics of Money Production” and Ron Paul’s “End the Fed”. And you might think a little before you tell someone to “look it up”, when you’re almost 200 years off and don’t have the first clue about how banks and the banking system works, or how it has evolved.

@madest The money movers came to Washington long before 2003. The right to gamble with “our” money was first granted in England in 1811, and has evolved since then. The Fed was the major cause of the meltdown, as it kept the interest rate too low and created the moral hazard for the banks, not to mention that the whole fraudulent fractional reserve banking system rests on the Fed. This is only possible thanks to 100,000s of pages of special regulation. Learn some history, and learn about FRB.

@vindician, Sorry you’re wrong. In 2003 a handful of of money movers left their Wall St. perches and came to DC. They greased the right palms and got a set of rules changed that in essence allowed them to gamble with our money. Our economic meltdown had nothing to do with the Fed. It wasn’t caused by Fannie Mac. We were bankrupted by Wall Street who did what they did for greed. Ron Paul would lessen regulations and make matters worse than you could imagine. This is the truth. Look it up.

@madest Then I guess you don’t even have half a brain. The problem with people like you is that you have absolutely no idea how the fractional reserve banking works, how the big banks are connected to the Fed, and how many thousands upon thousands of pages of regulation are required to keep the whole racket going. It really annoys the shit out of me when people so obviously ignorant like you think you know better than Ron Paul, who’s been dealing with this for decades.

@madest wrong, they actually had many ship building regulations at the time, all of which the titanic passed. in fact they actually had more life boats than was required by law and the builders cut no corners in building the most advance ship of its day. US immigration regulations required complete isolation of third class passengers which meant that they where not able to even make it to the ship deck. the boat sank because it hit an iceberg which would have sank any ocean vessel at that time.

@anryth The Titanic sunk because they didn’t have ship building codes or inspections. The builder cut corners as a result and the rest is history. Bad analogy, go back to school.

@madest to say that the financial meltdown happened due to a lack of regulations is like saying the titanic sank due to a lack of ice.

So, no MORE, no LESS. Right now we have the perfect / ideal number of regulations. Now, I finally understand. Stupid me.
And by the way, I went back to school as you suggested, and found nowhere the word “emporer”. Obviously Dr. Paul can’t be one, but maybe you are one… since you know what this “word” means.

@gigiontube You can’t even understand plain english. I never once proposed MORE regulations, I suggested LESS would be a disaster. Ron Paul is the emporer w/o clothes. Go back to school and work on reading comprehension

You don’t know me but you call me ‘fucking moron’ for not agreeing with your need for more regulations from government. Your behavior explains why YOU need gov. intervention to put you in your place. Your parents should have done their job better while raising you.
As a business owner, you should be able to provide safety to your employees and a great product to your customers ON YOUR OWN. Your need for gov. controlling your business is saying something about your own ability.
