And it's disappointing to see people on this board who don't understand how their worldviews are just a slightly different flavor of those that got us into the mess that Ron Paul was a reaction against.

How I read it is that the Pope recognizes that (in RC) pretty much everything's a sin. So don't go out and just sin willy-nilly, but accept that you will sin (according to the RC), try to sin as little as possible, and confess. It's actually a lesson evangelicals should listen to, so that they...

This is something that I'm seeing more and more. Not just typos, text-speech, or slang, but plain incoherence. It seems to correlate with the alt-right and Berners.

Initially, maybe. But everyone except the politically connected will be in the ever growing "low income" class after not too long.

Your mistake is thinking that any of the existing spending will be reformed, redirected, or fixed in any way. There are bureaucrats' jobs behind those failed programs!

Perry and Ince seem to be the only ones really comfortable with the philosophy of liberty. McAfee seems willing to learn. Shawna seems like someone's straw-person candidate who really isn't running her own campaign. Joy is more connected to her spiritual world than the real world. Kerbal has...

Those two assertions are mutually exclusive.

Hmm, electoral vote will take some research. The LP nominee, in my prediction, will be Johnson again (not that I hope for that). There will be many ballots, much in-fighting, and broken compromises. I hope that the National Convention will be online, there may be fistfights (of course...

Predictions: 1) Bernie continues to win/do well in most primaries, enough to have popular support going into the DNC 2) Hillary and the DNC come out of the convention with a super-delegate win, VP pick doesn't appease most Bernie supporters. 3) Trump continues to win most primaries through...

Exactly. He put on a suit and combed his hair. He's super serious about this. Or were you dissing his face, which probably couldn't be fixed by taking a different picture?

Gotta love all the Liberty Revolutionaries keeping the lights on at RonPaulForums. "He's the only candidate in the race, even in the Libertarian Party, talking about complete philosophical liberty, trying to spread the message. but muh borders! or muh love of keeping other people's abortions in...

I read it twice. Where did he slam Sarah Palin? What was a "negative, knee-jerk reaction"? Or "turning against her"? Or a "false-narrative"? Cruz said that Trump has been a progressive and can't be trusted in the GOP, and that he hopes Palin doesn't endorse him. Nothing about Palin directly.

Better climate = reduction in regulation and taxes, not more taxes to "level the incentives." They can't level the field to pretend to be a free market, and NO ONE writing them wants that anyway. As far as "tying tariffs to a freedom index" - why should the US Fed Gov profit off of us trading...

But it was Trump himself that said his demand was backed by a threat of a 35% tariff on foreign production. And again, just because something was "in existence since the founding" isn't an argument for it's goodness from a liberty perspective. What? Why in the hell would anyone excuse any tax...
