I Interviewed Ron Paul Yesterday - Here's What Happened!

in politics •  7 years ago

So I wanted to give everyone another chance to see my latest interview with Dr. Ron Paul, the former congressman, host of The Liberty Report and of course legend of the liberty movement.

I'd posted the video last night on Steemit but for an interview with Ron Paul, it got a rather small amount of notice here on Steemit. My recent interview with Robert Kiyosaki nearly brought in a thousand dollars but an interview with Ron Paul got like $10. LOL

Dr. Paul and I spoke about the enslavement of the monetary system and how close we truly are to a dollar crash. We spoke about a cashless society and how a centrally planned digital system could be implemented as well as how we can protect ourselves.
We also spoke about false flags and the delusion of the Russia collusion narrative as his son Senator Rand Paul is being accused by John McCain of being a Russian agent for not agreeing to add Montenegro to NATO.

Finally, Dr. Paul tells us how we can bring people to the message of voluntaryism and away from this collectivist mindset we see today.

You can see the FULL video interview here:

I don't know how anyone can possibly NOT love Ron Paul! :P

The illuminati for one ;)

I call them "the powers that shouldn't be."

Ron Paul helped awaken a lot of people. He really did create a rEVOLution! No matter what happens too, he will always be known as a champion of liberty.

People should pay close attention to his warnings though.

War is coming; It may be nuclear.

If you do not have your affairs in order, you had better get it done sooner than later. Don't listen to people like me either. Listen to people like Ron Paul.

won't happen my friend not world war atleast, isolated yes, but not worldly.

I hope you're right and I'm wrong.

great interview josh, he's always been one of my favorites. I even released this song on YouTube back in 2008 trying to spread the "Ron Paul Message"...

These guy is awesome love him too

Ron Paul is the REASON I got involved in crypto! I have him to thank for me questioning things enough to even trust something like Bitcoin back in 2010!

jhvjh

Awesome! Ron Paul is truly the only living politician I admire. He may not have lit the fire of liberty in me, but he kept it burning for many years and that's a debt I will never be able to repay.

I once was at a rally for him and I felt tears come unbidden. I was shocked to hear truth, and see a man telling it like it was and not just telling people what they wanted to hear. It was something I'd pessimistically never thought to hear, and it brought me to tears. For me he is a personal hero. One of the few I'd give that label to.

EDIT: He moved me enough that I was a delegate for him 2008 and 2012.

I was similarly moved by this man and those campaigns and even signed up as a delegate. Never once in the last fifty years of systematic, mass propaganda BS on steroids could I feel even the slightest sentiment of patriotism. With Ron Paul it was profound and palpable, touching to the core.

Ron Paul was the first to open my eyes truly and for that I thank him. What a great man.

True that, I believe Ron Paul and Cynthia McKinney are the only ones I have seen pressuring Ben Bernanke and the Fed after the last financial collapse of 2008-2009.

Well said, my friend.

HolySmoke! ... So true !!

Real American hero!

hhaha awesome. how did you get an interview setup?

Thanks! :)
I asked! He saw a few of my videos, liked them and agreed to do it!

Enjoyed and upvoted you thank you. Glad you re-posted it as i missed it first time. Do you know how much he advises people as a minimum to aspire to hold in each of gold and silver and where he believes one should buy it? Hold the actual metas an store them in a bank safe? Keep them in a swiss bank? Buy them on a blockchain through the Royal Mint's new method? Some other way?

Phys in your pocket,
No doubt about it!
-Trogdor

ok

Storage is a vast subject with many ramifications. Not a bank vault because everything within a bank is subject to regulation and intervention (and it's not really yours). It requires research. If your home is your castle you can keep it in a safe place at home. Most people have never touched real money and it makes them a little giddy. You should begin to accumulate and you will discover how much, where to keep it and much more.

Agreed! Definitely do not store anything in a traditional bank vault. There are private non-bank vaults however if you have enough precious metals to justify the costs.

If you are not wealthy then the best way is to buy some bullion from a trustworthy merchant and keep it in your house in a safe.

There are a lot of details missing in that advice, but I agree. How exactly people store it is important.

As a residential security expert, this is one topic I've researched heavily. If people want any help with strategies to secure their home and the treasures they keep within it, please follow me and look me up to ask direct questions. I'll help as my time allows!

Ron Paul is too smart for school.. Brave man! He is actually a physician and had a private practice in obstetrics and gynecology:) Nice interview btw:) His view on the stock market is obviously not right. The gold price has not kept up with CPI (1 dollar in 1800 now 11,17, CPI 13,37), while 1 dollar invested with dividends reinvested 7,47 mil (from Jeremy Siegel: Stocks for the Long Run). I do not know the numbers after we got the fiat system. I guess gold at least has outperformed the CPI. This view on Russia is hilarious. Love your view on cash less society. Sweden is working with that now.. Look what happen to them. Next time we get an ID-tag on our head so we can get scanned throughout the day. Steem on!

I was just reading about Ron Paul wanting to abolish the FED. Glad to see this interview on Steem this is HUGE @joshsigurdson! keep crushing it!
Best,
Isaac

Speaking of dollar bondage, today in my country many people do not have a minimum income of $ 5, then does the government care? The answer is no.
Today with the presence of steemit many people feel helped his economy.
Robert C tyosaki can only give words based on theory but the fact is very difficult for everyone to follow stepnya.Bencagi you are a good master.I will be your followers

You know when i started on steemit. I never know this community had such givers and people who like to think outside the box in order to reach people with a bigger voice that really matters. Great post brother and im really glad so much steemians are making a difference and effecting a change that will soon be here.

Great work on the video. I agree with Dr.Paul on the idea that society and individuals will need to protect their monetary assets and will turn to the blockchain for that particular kind of salvation.
I hope that his son will block the effort of S.1241 and fight against the war against cryptocurrencies in the Senate.

I may not know who this man is, but what I could tell from the comments above is: the man is a good man and a wonderful politician.

I do like to see people with good credibility.

Wooowww this is incredible what you get is really amazing I really like congratulations for you I hope you are always successful in steemit, this is a surprising achievement I am very happy to see it, would you share my post or upvete and follow if you want I feel very happy May you always success, Thank you very much for you

I noticed this on Facebook and looked for it on steemit yesterday too watch it here but I must have looked like an hour too early. Upvoted both posts.

Thank you! I appreciate it! :)

No problem. Keep up the great work.

They don't make them like Ron Paul anymore. Love the post.

I agree! Thanks!

John McCain needs to retire into oblivion

He's got a retirement home waiting for him in hell. lol

Yes, the space is reserved and fully paid for

What a great interview josh. I love Ron Paul. He is such a clear and straight character. no blabla ^^ just facts

Thank you! It was an honor to talk with him! :)

Great work bro!
Love these videos.

Thank you! Happy to make them! :)

"Don't steal - the government hates competition!"
(Ron Paul)

Great interview! I really respect Ron Paul. Following.

Thank you! :)

This is an excellent interview, Josh. I mean your part. Your interventions are very valuable, and original. Congratulations.
Keep bringing the liberty people to Steemit, they will end up resonating here.

Thank you! Happy to do it! :)

I like how you presented steem at the end. Keep the good work.

Always do! Thank you! :)

This man is a national treasure, he should be the president. Cheers

The presidency is just another puppet on the stage. Ron Paul knows that of course. His campaign was done to highlight the absurdity of it all though and to awaken more people to the truth. I'll always admire him for doing what he did too. He's a hero of liberty.

Congrats for being the no 1 in the trending list.
Sigh
so sad that btc drop so much, if not you will gain mare that 700 bucks!

Thank you for sharing on such informative post.It is good to implement and enhance the digital system and promote the cashless society since it is the trend nowadays. It can provide a more convenient way for people to spend their money and I hope there will be more discussion about this issue to let more people

It's a good interview. I agree with much of it....The solution needed most is the distribution of the money supply. It needs to be dispersed to all equally at creation instead of being given to the banksters first. This will solve the equal opportunity issue and along with equal distribution of currency at creation ( preferably a debt free coin); a new education system needs to be implemented​ teaching financial and ecological literacy...
The only thing I disagree with in this interview is on his medical stance. The primary needs of all individuals: housing, food, education, and health care do need to be addressed in​ a socially​ responsible​ collective way. Demonizing the words social and collective is silly because humans are social animals living collectively in groups...He's dead on,​ though, that it is The Corporatocracy which is the primary driver of most of the dysfunction​ when it comes to many of these issues.

Collectivism is the antithesis of everything Ron Paul stands for. Please go to www.mises.org and start reading the daily articles. They will introduce you to a trove of thinkers in the Austrian School of Economics, which Paul is from.
Collectivism is subjugating the individual to the whole, which actually doesn't exist as a living organism. Collectivism is tyranny against the individual. It says that one owes something of one's labor or property to someone else. Take health care for example, if health care is a "right," then what happens if no one wants to go into medicine? The state would have to conscript people into the field. That is slavery. Health care is therefore not a right, nor is food, education, or anything outside of the integrity of your person and property.

Oh, please, I was reading Mises 20 years ago. How presumptuous! Mr. Paul is simply wrong on issues pertaining to humanities basic needs ( please read where I said he is correct). A socialized currency issued equally to all in a non-debt manner​ would solve the issue...Why did you misrepresent my saying humanities basic needs with human​ rights?
And please, go somewhere else if you want to argue this tired old capitalist/communist trope...Bored to death of it.....

I apologize. Happy to agree to disagree about basic needs.

Do you think trillions of dollars given freely to about 2000 oligarchs is in anyway merited? The money for nothing making the casino owners who run civilization enormously wealthy via vast systems of unmerited wealth? Do you give these people a free pass while so easily denying and dismissing the basic needs of humanity? Please read Abraham Maslow. Everyone is capable of becoming healthy and functional as long as the foundational issues of their life are met. Mises and Paul, on this issue, are wrongly transferring a false understanding of Darwinism into the field of economics and especially, Mr. Paul has an extraordinarily faulty understanding of The Golden Rule--the only thing that really mattered from our mythological past.......
Thanks for the apology.....
BTW, in agrarian societies, those needs were met by having 'free' access to the land; in complex modern societies those needs can only really be met by money; hence the equal distribution of the money supply to all at creation. This will solve the problem of the Pyramid Scheme Central Banking Swindle.....See, I sound just like Ron on that one:)

I'm also curious: as a mother, if you are one, at which point did you decide that one or some of your children didn't have to have their basic needs met?
Because, hypothetically, one of your children could have a chemical imbalance which is prone to one becoming a psychopath? So you starve this child instead of​ seeking medical​ help? And I could offer up thousands of justifications for starving one's​ child....It doesn't make it a healthy ethos....

Smart man, he tells it like it is no matter what!!
Great video.
Blessings to you!!

My favorite part of Ron Paul is his critique of military escapades and meddling, and his support of a humble foreign policy.

.... and his critique of corporate welfare.

I always upvote the great Dr. Ron Paul!! Can someone help me get the Liberty Report posted here on Steemit? I'm sure one of our whales knows him. :-)

Be honest no matter what and tell whats right for ppl.

Thanks Rom Paul and of cours u @joshsigurdson

I always liked Ron Paul, it's a shame he didn't make it farther in the election.

How it like being Will Smiths son?

I dont believe any Illuminati puppet
they make my head spin.

Cheers Mate

@Joshsigurdson It was truly awesome. Congratulations. I am absolutely proud of you and that Steemians are doing such a wonderful job. Your tone, pitch and representation was absolutely perfect and impressive. Moreover Dr. Paul is a brilliant man, to be admired for his experience and expertise. Keep up the good work.
Best Regards.

I like this guys, and i llove this your post, now i follow you, and i always following your post... @yusrizal

Upvoted because Ron Paul is god.

Upvoted your comment because I feel the same way!

By watching your video my insights are growing, yes even with cuteness, hahaa ...
You are brilliant ...
I am amazed at you ...

*** me @alanmirza looking forward to your next interview.***

Congratulations @joshsigurdson!
Your post was mentioned in my hit parade in the following category:

  • Pending payout - Ranked 3 with $ 509,37

Upvoted and followed, thanks for sharing! WRT McCain's accusation against Dr. Rand Paul that he's a Russian agent because he doesn't vote the way McCain wants -- well, he should respond with "you can't prove your accusation. However, I can accuse you of being a satanic agent, and I have photographic proof." :)

And, after having watched it, I much prefer Dr. Ron Paul's response -- "they should just be laughed at, they lose credibility". Like how Charles DuMarr responded to the jock at the high school dance, in "Better Off Dead"... :)

Best. Teen. Movie. Eva!

ohh I guess you havent felt the burn yet!! But his is quite good!

God knows how things would be now, if he was president...

The alternative to crash is inflation and raise of productivity that is happening now every day
That said I don't believe in a big overnight crash
I believe that crypto currency will slowly gain the trust of more and more people
But not because of the actual coin
Blockchain technology is the secure base for many interactions and transactions worldwide without a middleman
There will be lots of new services and this new useful apps an so on will bring the people to use crypto coins and the blockchain
There will be competition between the different ledger and the one with the best service will win in the long run
So where are the best applications with real blockchain security because there is lots of not so secure systems out there where companies and small groups of investors try to manipulate and influence a blockchain
It will take some time until trust is built and the real secure blockchain will disrupt and renew the whole internet until then lots of speculation will happen and people will try to get rich quick
The real winners will be the guys who bring good services with blockchain security to the people

i watched this interview, it was really too good, i will stay tuned

i amm sorry but i dont who the Ron Paul iss....Upvoted...

Great interview keep up the good work.

“Every time you spend money, you're casting a vote for the kind of world you want.”

Nice

I respect Dr. Paul, he says it the way it is. I upvoted you and started following you...

Wow! Love you :)

That guy is amazing.

May be

Hallo All,Nice to meet you

Nice one

Ron Paul is such an inspiration to many of us. He speaks the truth and really cares about the population...

Thanks for sharing your interview here so I could also see it @joshsigurdson

Have a wonderful weekend further.

lots of love,
@mysticlilly16

Hello! My Voice for a good post!

Good job!

Such awesome!

It's really awesome and cool @joshsigurdson

Thank for sharing .. I'll be waiting the next articel from you

He is a real man.

@joshsigurdson this is so great. Upvotes and followed
Thnks @esteem @naseerbhat

Ron Paul is a heroe. It would be a nice sociological analysis to make to see why Kiyosaki would have more viewers that Dr. Paul. I admire Kiyosaki myself, but it is a strange phenomenon this difference in viewers.

Why repost it? I was going to watch it today, the original one. When I saw this one, I decided to watch it here, sure there is a reason for the reposting so I will play along.

Voted and resteemed, of course.

Watching the interview, I think I get it. Dr. Paul is not a fan of cryptos, so people don´t watch him here! Funny, but could be.

A wonderful post, upvote and follow!

I feel like he is the only sane one left in the house. Janet Yellen has lost her mind.

nice content,
welcome all

Ron Paul is for Gold and Silver. He doesn't believe in Fiat and Cryptocurrency. That is interesting. Thanks for posting.

If the power ever goes out--emp blast or what not--crypto will lose all its value. If you really think about it, there isn't intrinsic value behind crypto. What makes it different than fiat is that a central authority can't just make more. Gold and silver will hold their value pretty much forever no matter what happens (unless maybe mining asteroids becomes a thing, or making it in a particle accelerator gets a lot cheaper).

Don't get me wrong, I am a big fan of crypto, but if you want a rock solid store of value, gold and silver is a good idea.

Well said. followed ya

Thanks, followed back. Have a good one.

thx n you're welcome

I think that divirsification is a good thing. The bad part of gold and silver is that you can be physically separated from them easily. A man who flees the country and has bitcoin, OTOH, will still have the bitcoin, so long as he remembers his password. But there are ways that bitcoin can lose all of its value, which cannot happen to gold and silver.

Yes, crypto is great for moving wealth from one tax farm to another. Precious metals make that process very difficult.

True, unless the government invents that brain sucker thing from that batman movie. lol

Then again, there is always old fashion torture to get your password. There are ways to hide gold/silver as well like the pirates did. There are advantages and disadvantages to everything. Little bit of everything and understanding the pros and cons of each is a good idea.

Yup, and Ron Paul is a true believer in the EMP attack TEOTWAWKI scenario.

I've had people respond, "Well, if there is enough people, they can hobble together an Internet."
sigh Crypto is fine for now, but like all other non-metallic currencies in a TEOTWAWKI situation, it is innately useless.

He's in the pessimistic camp, and I'm right there with him. The powers that shouldn't be are not going to walk quietly into the night. They will burn the house down and kill everyone in it before losing their power.

When the going gets tough, the tough get going is the old saying. I add, "The smart left long ago" to it though. I am not holding out hope for a peaceful resolution to the current economic situation. There will be war. My hope is that it will not be nuclear, but... it probably will be. If that happens though, we won't care about our PM's or crypto.

Silver would probably be the most useful in a SHTF scenario. Makes a great disinfectant from a very small amount of silver. There's really no telling what kind of society will come out of the ashes of this one.

Like Einstein said, "world war 4 will be fought with sticks and stones.."

2nd most useful... right behind brass.

Fantastic !! Just found your page... Following, and Resteemed.. I voted for Ron Paul back in the Day .. if only he could have Won; we would have had some Real CHANGE ... Thanks for Posting ...

  • Liberty for ALL ..

  • Never Sacrifice Freedom for ANYTHING !!!!

He wasn't going to win, and he knew that beforehand. He was trolling the establishment. :) It was a beautiful sight to see regardless!

this is really awesome

interesting post... follow you... follow back

Nice

This man should have been President a long time ago!!

Nice conversation, upvoted

LOVE THIS.... LOVE RON PAUL.... LOVE YOU FOR POSTING! Thank you @joshsigurdson

Was enjoyed very much , and great interview !

Great post!

Gonna watch when I get home! Who know she what direction my life would have gone if I didn't find Ron Paul.

Incredible friend best regards from [email protected]

awesome article thanks

He is a living legend, I really admire him. Please check his latest interview on Time for 'Real Revolution '; Way Too Much Bipartisanship, Both Parties Believe In Same Policies.

what a crazy man

Wonderful interview. Listening to Ron Paul is always a joy. You can tell this system is corrupted because he is the only politician who was true to his role. He represented maximum liberty to the people. The career glory seeking politicians only wanted more money and more power. Ron Paul couldn't possibly fit in with people like that.

He's more effective speaking liberty and educating people here on the internet. I will forever be grateful like many others for being enlightened by this man. If I hadn't come across him I probably wouldn't have made it here! Thank you for being an inspiration Ron Paul!

thanks for sharing

Awesome you got to interview him. I would love to @joshsigurdson I will follow you

amazing guy. i agree with him on the dollar. the future is crypto indeed.

Ron Paul is the leader worth paying attention to. Thank you so much for sharing and congrats on the great interview!

Thank you so much for this intelligent and informative post. I do believe that I need to follow, upvote and resteem your goodness! My gawd I love Libertarians!

I followed you just because you love Ron Paul!

LOL!!!! Funny, @chuckypita.

This guy is great. Speaks the truth unlike most politicians.

Ron Paul is the man. I like Robert K also, but RP needs to get over $1k! I upvoted and resteemed.

Love Ron Paul

I think steem or something like it has the potential to be better than GOLD and metals. It as far as a crypto currency is actually backed by something. It is backed by our ideas, and creations. That to me is some of the most valuable things that can be backing something.

Ron Paul brought me to the message of Liberty when I saw him debate the Neocons during the Republican Presidential debate in 08. He exposed those guys for the warmongering liars they truly are like nobody had done before. Ron Paul is badass mo fo!

Omg this is so cool! I think your posts are interesting coz you get to interview people.
Robert Kiyosaki is more popular as his books is more relevant to our 9-6 job and trying to escape the rat race haha

It will be a change every cadre of the society must key into for better posterity stand out

Thank you for the information you provided.
So I can know how the world is progressing now.
Because every time information is always changing.
Once again I thank you very much.

thanks friends for this nice post,and steemit has removed my grief

I hope he sees in his life time the fed get audited

lol what a guy

I hope... I will be like him.
Be a good man and be a inspiration for many people in the word.

Please follow me too.

Thank's
