CUTTING GOVERNMENT WASTE:
Makes a 10% reduction in the federal workforce,
slashes Congressional pay and perks, and curbs
excessive federal travel. To stand with the American
People, President Paul will take a salary of $39,336,
approximately equal to the median personal income of
the American worker.
REGULATION:
Repeals ObamaCare, Dodd-Frank, and Sarbanes-
Oxley. Mandates REINS-style requirements for
thorough congressional review and authorization
before implementing any new regulations issued by
bureaucrats. President Paul will also cancel all onerous
regulations previously issued by Executive Order.
ENTITLEMENTS:
Honors our promise to our seniors and veterans,
while allowing young workers to opt out. Block grants
Medicaid and other welfare programs to allow States
the flexibility and ingenuity they need to solve their
own unique problems without harming those currently
relying on the programs.
"Ron Paul has a good idea"
"fooling around the margins isn't going to get it done... genuine big spending cuts are the ONLY thing that is going to bring us back"
"These are not really Ron Paul's ideas. On this program I myself have suggested freezing spending at 2008 levels. Let's freeze spending back to Clinton's years. Paul is stealing that idea. Cutting the EPA? We've long been an advocate of this...eliminating whole bureaucracies. But nobody on our side has ever seriously proposed this and Ron Paul is going to".
"Ron Paul is going to put it forward."
"We know that little chunks here and there are not going to make a dent ion the problem; it has to be serious."
"Romney has a 59 point program, it might be a good program, but it's not what's needed if we are going to save the country and preserve it as it has been for all of us since we were born."
"We [on this show] have called for everything that Paul is suggesting . He will be the first candidate to actually do so. It'll be interesting to see how they react to this. They might try to ignore it. No one's going to want to agree with him since it comes from Paul....... The EPA needs to be dialed back fast and big time; it's become it's own little fiefdom, and the FCC is getting close [to becoming a fiefdom too]."

I think hell has just frozen over, Rush Limbaugh has just openly supported and endorsed Ron Paul's economic plan.

Does this mean Cain can stop referring to his 9-9-9 plan as 'bold'?

I feel for you I really do but,
At this point, it isn't even worth it to be negative anymore. Since the founding fathers, America has NEVER come this far to bringing a real president (that actually follows this closely the oaths he swears) into office. If you know your stuff, the elite doesn't even have any power over you.
I'm tired of all of the negative comments and sad faces, we have a HERO, a CHAMPION, a MODEL to shape our future politicians after. Ron Paul knew damn well the forces he was going up against for the last 30 years, you really think he didn't know the consequences if he ran for President? He has stood up to direct insults and over-exaggerated aggression from the media and knows damn well what could or might happen if he were to bring real change as president and I know he prepared himself long ago for those scenarios.
If we stand strong, keep our beliefs firm, united for a single cause, LIBERTY, nobody can stop us...not even the damned elites...they don't have any real power over us and don't EVER give them a reason to think they do.

Thats funny because I do grassroots volunteering and tabling for Ron Paul on my own, all of my experiences dealing with people here in Los Angeles, a major liberal city in a major liberal state, I get way more Ron Paul supporters telling me to keep it up and that they're voting for him vs. those who will not vote for him and those who say he is unelectable. I even get democrats telling me they're switching to republican just to vote for him in our closed primaries.
The amount of excited Ron Paul voters I've bumped into vs non-supporters is overwhelming and you can take that to the bank.
If you're gonna get behind someone, at least pretend to believe you are on the side of truth. It is hard without the media on our side but it is undeniable and inevitable.
Let it not be said that we did nothing
-Ron Paul
