What happens when Ron Paul's plan comes into fruition?

Everyone goes back to work. That sounds great to me...

Stocks will gradually go up, steady but surely;

Once our heroes come home, we will save a huge chunk of money because no more policing of the world; some of it will be used to retrain our soldiers toward a new career and at the same time will remain as reserves;

in hospitals, there will be clinics for our beloved veterans of all wars;

better, perhaps preferential social services assistance for our displaced veterans;

we will close our borders and some of our soldiers will manage it; hence no more funneling of untaxed cash to another country;

freeloaders will now force themselves to go back to school, or find a job;

Social security will discontinue its services/programs to new immigrants; (can't come here and become an outright burden);

Medicare/medicaid programs will be limited to citizens only;

we will attract foreign investors to setup manufacturing facilities in our country by providing tax incentives = more employment opportunities;

our country will cooperate and coordinate with other nations in terms developing alternative energy sources and other technologies;

we will be allowed, if we wish, to own firearms to protect ourselves, our property, and our regained freedom, JIC;

we will be free to practice what we preach;

freedom/restrictions in the internet will be relegated to the head of the household;

our media will be more balanced and non-partisan; and much, much more

TimG....First, consider what will happen to our economy if Ron Paul is not elected. The entire system is, according the the GAO Comtroller General David Walker, technically bankrupt. The Social Security Trust Fund is totally composed of Non-Marketable Government Securities, in other words, there is not a dime in it and the Securities are nothing more than IOUs which cannot be redeemed or sold on any market. The Fiat Monetary System is rapidly reaching its Maximum Possible Life-Span, a terminal point where the underlying debt is so massive that it siphons off all viability from the economy.

So, what does happen to the economy, the elderly, the disabled, the retirees, the pensioners and the rest of us, including you and your family when the Monetary System collapses under the weight of the massive and irreversible debt that creates the money?

Unless there is a very drastic change in this country we will follow numerous other civilizations in history into chaos, social destruction and a break-down of all law and order. When the government itself is no longer able to borrow, to fund its own operations what will you do? If the money becomes worthless through devaluation and hyper-inflation, what will you and your family do, what will or can the government do then?

This will be the only chance we citizens will get to help him to the oval office, and we're running out of chances. Looks like the GOP has pissed on us about all they care to.......they just about have everything in place to lock in McCain. So what? He's going to further divide the slimey GOP anyway, and no way will he win. Look up the Constitution Party.......I think supporters will flock to the cause if we disband from the GOP.......nobody is speaking well of the GOP these days, and for good reason!

IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL! We wouldn't be burdened with excessive taxes.

He's said that repeatedly. It's a process.

Cutting spending overseas on the Empire. Add in the several other governmental institutions that would be reduced and eventually eliminated. If government is reduced...and peoples earnings can remain in their pockets ( not stolen by the IRS or ? )...then were have posperity
and security again.

Analizing the irregularities in the judicial system and the "prision industry"
where billions of dollars are wasted yearly jailing pot smokers and the like.
Decriminalize many of the products or activities that fill the jails with "none criminals" and distroy families / communities.
Then we may have room for some of the REAL criminals ( traitors ) who are residing in DC.

Get the federal government out of the education ( indoctrination ) business
and the healthcare industry and back into the assigned function as discribed in the constitution.

OK...there is another factor that hasn't yet been discussed ( at least I haven't seen it ) and that is the PRIDE that this country will have for it's new found freedom and return to traditional values. This will inspire us all to give 110% ... to volunteer in our communities and neighborhoods to take responsibility and not wait for NANNY government to "fix" our daily problems and requirements.

Imagine "TEAM WORK" ... for a new nation spirit. I feel it now...and have since I found out about Ron Paul !!!

I've thought about it as well. Please for the love of God lets not really get that discussion going on yet till we get the man in office. Ron's hinted at the trouble we're in and even talked about the ramifications many times. He wants to TRY to divert a disaster. Remember what he's said though.... the hard times are coming it just depends on HOW they are coming. The spending has got to stop.

Do you want it under the guise of Ron Paul and an actual President at the helm
or by the barrel of a gun and a dictorship? That's the only question we need to be asking ourselves right now.

IN PAUL I TRUST!!!!!!!!!

This is a great question!
The biggest statement RP is attempting to make is less Federal Gov't intervention, i.e., smaller gov't and less regulations at the federal level. With that follows more freedom for us, however more responsibility for us but again increased freedom.
More sound money in our pockets. More shift on business's and private charities to come to aid, keeping in mind this is a transition not a light switch. Most likely less consumption for a while, less consumer debt in time, more people willing to save with money that has an economy with less inflation.
More capital investment in time with invesment coming from real savings and consumption coming from people's savings not from credit cards. Banks being operated more like a real business than an extension of the federal reserve. These concepts are not as overwhelming as you might think. Our encomomy and monetary policy need healthy correction. RP knows there is a 2-4 year correction period but if we refuse to chage it will get really ugly for the middle class. This truly would be a more healthy and stronger way to live.

Even Ron Paul himself says these changes cannot happen all at once. First end the war.......then steadily cut spending......then steadily lower taxes........then start closing other military bases around the world........cut more taxes.......eventually getting to the point where the nation can discuss how to get rid of the IRS.........and finally deal with the FED RES.

Our government is running in a broken state, its actually malfunctioning from a mechanical viewpoint. Ron Paul's changes ARE slow and would take a lot of time to implement but here are some things you can look towards..

You would see the dollar immediately start to improve with the lack of spending.

Without the IRS everyone in the nation would have a 33% raise and the economy would ROAR back to positive state.

Government would spend less and meddle less in health care, since government is the largest payer in the health care market and they can pay any price.. once young people get out of social security they not only get a 14% raise (7 from you 7 from your employer that they would give you) but when they retire we will eventually no longer have government involved and prices would start to drop.

I dont have time really to finish this list at the moment but the positive effects of Paul as president are endless.. his plans are cautious, and slow but they are a virtual plan of treatment towards recovery for this very sick and dying country.

similar to what it was when I grew up in the 50's. There was no health insurance and the Doctors came to your house and changed $10.00. You saved a portion of your income for a rainy day. Family took care of their kin and helped one another through a tough stretch. Neighbors looked out for one another. If we truly followed Dr. Paul's plan it would be even better than the 50's Dr. Paul's truly wants justice for ALL. I like that.
