1st Post

"When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. "

--Declaration of Independence

That was the inspiring quote that made me a Ron Paul fan. I have always had an outside interest in politics, economics and foreign affairs, however it all seemed just to be something out of my reach and place in life. I accepted that I will stick to my lifestyle and stop trying to understand the things made out to be beyond basic, human understanding. I started moving into investing to appease my appetite for business and finances, which also grew my understanding of the role for money and currencies.

After witnessing the mess that was the 2004 elections, I had determined that it was useless to vote between a lesser of two evils, because in the end, you still don't get what you voted them in for. Then I heard Ron Paul from Digg.com and this man changed my view and took me by complete surprise. The consequences that the war with Iraq, Afghanistan and, soon to be, Iran is posing to the American culture and way of life, along with many implications of a major economic recession, there seems to be only one person who acknowledges these problems and wants to take immediate, corrective actions to save our country. This blog is not about Ron Paul, it just helps to know who he is, what he stands for, and understand that we know what to expect from this man as President, so you can better understand my point of view.

I have had many ideas floating around that I want to share with anyone who stumbles upon this blog, so that when they read they are to understand that under free market (we do not have a truly free market) the life of an individual is much happier and simpler than you think. These ideas is what this blog is for, to open up my world the everyone in order to contribute to the community. So, on that note of my first blog post I hope you enjoy my view on the world.


America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves. -- Abraham Lincoln
