One of My Heroes, Ron Paul, Blasts The Federal Reserve

As more and more people in the United States learn about Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas), they are absolutely stunned that anyone elected to the U.S. Congress could actually NOT be a paid puppet of the lobbyists.

When you hear Dr. Paul speak on the U.S. Federal Reserve, you will find that he is absolutely aligned with the same principles espoused and intended by the founding fathers of the United States.

The Federal Reserve System is actually the cause of inflation and one of the primary reasons why your financial future is unstable, insecure, and likely to include inflations, recessions and depressions. In this short video, Dr. Paul explains why its secretive practices and economic manipulations are bad news for the United States.





Dr. Mercola's Comment:

Dr. Paul is one of my heroes. He is a shining example of how one solitary voice can inspire and bring necessary change. He is nearly single-handedly leading the charge to address the perversion that multi-national corporations have done to the U.S. government.

Not only has Dr. Paul been making quite an impression during the recent Republican presidential debates, he's also introduced a bill that would strongly and positively affect Mercola.com and many other natural health organizations and advocates, and the field of natural health in general.

The Health Freedom Protection Act would prevent the FDA from censoring truthful claims about the curative or preventative effect of dietary supplements, a popular issue for Americans -- but not necessarily for Congressmen, especially for those receiving donations from the multi-national drug company cartel.

One of the more recent flashpoints in the debate over dietary supplements occurred eight years ago, after studies emerged that tart cherries may do more good than aspirin or other anti-inflammatory drugs when it comes to pain relief. When cherry growers began to cite this research, the FDA came down hard on 29 of them, threatening legal action if they didn't remove the scientific evidence about cherries from their Web sites.

At the very same time the FDA was harassing cherry farmers, the agency was approving the heart-stopping drug Vioxx, which was pulled from the American market in 2004. Think about that -- truthful studies about cherries could not be referred to, but deadly and dangerous drug alternatives could be advertised everywhere.

The support for Dr. Paul is like nothing I have ever seen before. I read nearly three dozen blogs every day and about 5,000 posts a week so I have a good sense of what people are feeling. The support for Dr. Paul has been almost universally positive for his effort.

When I posted an article about him in last week's newsletter he had over a 97 percent positive comment rating. This is rare, and I believe it's because he speaks the TRUTH and that resonates at a deep level with those who seek it. It is my sincere hope that enough of a groundswell can be generated through the Internet to give him a chance to be the next president. You never know, stranger things have happened.

Ron Paul is a true patriot.   There is not one other politician that will even mention what he has the balls to. Look for the major media(bought and paid for) to start painting him as a whacko.

Unfortunately he has almost no chance without the support of the secret government of international bankers.

This is the most important issue IMO period. It's amazing they don't teach you these things in school.

The federal reserve is not a federal institution... no more than the federal express is. It is unconstitutional to delegate the power to create money to this private monopoly.

Unfortunately like many monetary reformists... I do not think he understands exactly how to fix the problem. He thinks that fiat money is the problem because of rampant inflation.

The problem is that fiat money is not the cause of inflation. The problem is interest. It increases unemployment, decreases production, and is purported to decrease inflation. What controls the money supply however, is not even interest but the federal reserve discount rate. What controls inflation is debt itself. When a debt is paid back the money is destroyed which keeps it from being inflationary. Currenty the money supply exceeds the debt itself. This is only possible because some money (not all) is created without debt. Usually money is created only through loans (when a debt is attached). An example of this are open market operations.

The real problem with the monetary system is that it makes us economic slaves. Consider a typical 200k loan given for the mortgage on a house. You will end up paying back about 400k. This money was created by the bank from nothing. They simply edited their electronical ledgers at the stroke of a few keys. Out of this 200k extra you paid in interest, the work they do is little, the risk they bear is minimal... and the amount that actually goes to depositors is small. (they do not actually lend out depositors funds as you may happen to think. A loan is new money, an addition to the money supply)
