have you actually read this bill?

the bill was to allow open competition for the united states reserve.

What is this "united states reserve" you speak of? The USA borrows money from the Federal Reserve, a private company. The USA gave control of the dollar away to them 98 years ago.

Fundamentalists like Ron Paul say things that sound great, but in reality if someone like Ron Paul or Sarah Palin comes into power you better be independently wealthy or your going to be completely screwed.

So how do you think those two politicians are alike? Never heard that comparison before, lol. Ron Paul wants to make it harder for people to rob you. How is that going to make you more screwed? The only people that will "screw" is those that want to take your money by inflating the money supply and not letting you have any alternatives.

please elaborate on how ron paul wants to make it harder for people to rob me? I do not mind paying social security and medicare taxes because my mother is disabled after working her entire life and my grandmother is retired after working for 40 years. Both on social security, and I believe both of them deserve health insurance despite the fact that the only insurance they can afford is the kind they buy from the government (medicare)
