On Fox Business News, Ron Paul reiterates his belief that the measures being taken to “rescue” the financial system are exactly the very measures that caused the problem in the first place. He really goes off again in this clip. A few choice quotes:

“You have to allow the market to set the prices.”

“This won’t solve the problem.”

“Are you going to have a short painful period for a year, or are you going to prolong the agony with a depression.”

“You can’t save free markets by socialism.”

“This country is bankrupt and we won’t admit it.”

“We are on the verge of destroying our dollar.”
