Dr. Paul's Campaign for Liberty is home to some quality commentary.

This whole debacle underscores the fact that the popular definitions of capitalism and capitalist especially are far too broad.

Question: Quotidianly, if at all, what do you come across and then say to yourself, "A capitalist- a real capitalist who understands the ethics which underscore capitalism- did this."

I think it is important to point out that to take part in capitalism means you must also be a capitalist. One who understands this role and takes it seriously goes along way to an ethical, joyous life. If you however, you choose not to recognize this role, you fail and you twist yourself into an illusion that can only lead to despair and ultimate contempt for your life and your fellow man.

I'm with you Tyson. Dr. Paul seems like the only voice out there that recognizes the changes needed in monetary policy.

If there was a simple test to see if a person understood just the basic principles of Capitalism, those who would flunk it include most of congress, the president, both presidential candidates and most of the talking heads on the news channels. Isn't that a sad state of affairs!
