The funny thing about Ron Paul is that the bastard actually advanced some solid ideas of CHANGE but democrats didn't give him an ounce of notice.

I still don't understand that.

You know, competing currencies would be interesting. Not quite sure what the expected benefit would be, though? Would stores be required to accept both, or could they choose?

That Cindy McCain speech is exactly why this is a millennial vs baby boomer election. I can't imagine that verbal anesthetic appealing to anyone, but I acknowledge it works for a lot of people. I sure as fuck don't understand them, and I know they don't understand people my age.

Come on Millennials. Time to end the age of Grandpa.

Plenty of Democrats like the ideas of Ron Paul, if you paid attention you probably would have noticed that.

Ron Paul had some good ideas but he was not a compelling figure. His message needs a new messenger.

Yeah stores would accept whatever the hell they want. Austrian-school economics is heavily laden with von Mises' anarchism, so there's a lot of fuck you's to any form of government.

In theory, bond markets and stocks serve as competing currencies. But the whole point is that ONE currency would be anchored on specie as a permanent brake on inflation, and since they're all fiat now (especially the euro) we're seeing the irrational volatility Hayek was warning about.

Guy just didn't bullshit, though his foreign policy comments hurt him with his own party I think.
