Get the Video Plugin If you believe in liberty, register to vote for Ron Paul in the primaries.
I believe in liberty, but I also believe in empathy and compassion, neither of which Ron Paul considers values.

Explain.Thanks in advance :)
Well, I'm all for freedom, but Ron Paul takes it to an extreme. I agree with him that we need to get out of the wars we're in, and that there are certainly some civil liberties that need to be reinstated, but that's all that I really agree with him on. He wants to eliminate the income tax and all social programs like social security, medicaid, and medicare.
When asked during a debate if we should let a hypothetical 30 year old man die because he was hit by a car and didn't have health insurance because the man didn't think he needed it, Ron Paul replied, "I don't know where this notion came from that we have to help each other all the time."
In my opinion, this is America, and we're better than that. If a man gets hit by a car, we're not just going to sit there, watch him suffer, deny him healthcare, and let him die. That's morally reprehensible and, in my opinion, un-American.
i'm pretty sure he also said that people who aren't from the US who don't have health insurance have been treated in life threatening situations in operating theatres, they simply aren't turned away in that situation. he's a proponent of a free market, where people choose where to be treated depending on the costs, even if it means going to singapore. there are other avenues such as charities etc. what he's emphasising is the surfacing of the new medical industrial complex. he wants corporation influence out of politics and to revert back to free market capitalism. we've seen the influence of profiteering by the military industrial complex. the fear of having a medical industrial complex could be seen in the profiteering of drug companies with swine flu vaccines, imagine what further influence they could have on the governance of people
politicians know how to push the buttons of people with fear, health is big business for pharmaceutical corporations
Gandu pretty much covered what I was going to say.
Also, you may not agree with everything he stands for, but he is the only honest candidate running for office. He hasn't changed his position on anything in the past 30 years, and he has a perfect voting record.
Perhaps, but I know he's not in favor of corporate regulation, and I don't see how making the market more free is going to help anything when we already have international corporations who no one can compete with. You need some kind of regulation in the markets. If you don't believe me then go read The Jungle.
from what i understand from your post, you believe that international corporations have too much muscle. that is true but the main message is that he wants the separation of corporate influence from government. corporations get a lot of leeway in obtaining permits and other benefits when their funded representatives/lobbyists are in power. a few million here and there, it's pretty cheap for them, most can be bought at that stage

I'm well aware of that. That's why I support outlawing corporate contributions to political campaigns and moving campaign financing solely to public financing. You still need regulations on corporations after that though. I don't know about you, but I don't want to find severed fingers or rat shit in my food.
Politics in the YouTube thread aside...
The hilarious live game of D&D played by : Wil Wheaton, Jerry Holkins, Mike Krahulik, Scott Kurtz, and Chris Perkins at PAX 2011 back in August is finally online. When you have around 2 1/2 hours, give it a watch.
So many videos that I'll just post the link to all of them:

well, competition in the healthy market would lead to people deciding to buy from another, if indeed severed fingers and rat shit as you put it is found in your food, i'd more than bet that you wouldn't purchase from that company ever again. people also buy on recommendations from other people, so if quality does indeed lack then their should be alternatives, etc. what it comes down to is that corporations shouldn't get special treatment from government just because they sponsored their way into capitol hill. from what i understand, corporations under his leadership would have less power than they do now, competition would drive the businesses to shape up or go bust. his main concern is that overextending governance is wasteful and inefficient. what i most like is the request to audit the fed, thats the root cause
edit: talking about severed fingers and rat shit got me thinking. fluoride in toothpaste etc, by-product from the aluminium industry, hard to get rid of, pump it into drinking water. smiley face thumbs up, we'll regulate for you
