Ron Paul's Libertarian Lesson for John McCain
During the Republican presidential debates, John McCain seemed to show as much disdain for Ron Paul as he did for Mitt Romney. But while McCain certainly has no use for Paul's antiwar views, he might want steal Paul's oft-stated idea that Americans are being hit hard by an "inflation tax." This from Paul's website:
Today, the federal government burdens us with one of the most dangerous taxes it can impose—the inflation tax. When the federal government finds that it cannot afford its out-of-control spending, and is unwilling to directly tax the public, it resorts simply to creating the money out of thin air.... We cannot possibly expect the government to control spending when it has a blank checkbook.... This greatly benefits the politicians and special interests—they are able to finance the massive welfare-warfare state. But how does this inflation affect you?...Day by day, every dollar you have is being devalued. You pay an inflation tax without even realizing it because you are forced by a falling dollar to pay more for goods and services.... The disastrous fiscal policies of our own government, marked by shameless deficit spending and Federal Reserve currency devaluation, are some of the greatest threats facing our nation today.

Ron Paul Publicly Names Neocons on the House Floor
While this video does not have the actual video from the House floor, it takes a portion of Dr. Paul's speech and shows the actual Neoconservatives that he is discussing in his speech.
The speech discusses the origins, ties, and goals of the Neoconservative movement, which we have now seen is far more akin to socialism or communism than it is to the democratic Republic our country was founded as.
