I am mostly certain that the majority of people who support Ron Paul have no idea how much damage his constitutionally purist policy would do.

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.

They were wiser then you think.
Jefferson saw the flaws in our current system hundreds of years before it was ever implemented. Really, these guys were a bright bunch, we would do well to listen to what they were saying.
