How is that related to the price of Bitcoin?

Either way is Ron Paul still a thing?

He has more effect on price than you.....

Like in a sense of positive zero being larger than negative zero?

Too bad the moderator of this sub forum is also a troll.

Positive zero and negative zero don't exist.

Tell that to the guys who came up with floating point in computers.

The number 0 is usually encoded as +0, but can be represented by either +0 or −0.

So, there are two possible representations of one single object.

That was kind of my point.

So, you are Ron Paul?

That's cool, is Ron Paul the candidate of president of USAEarth?

Yes, he runs against Richard Nixons Head in the 3016 elections.

Never heard of this guy but good to know

That's cool, is Ron Paul the candidate of president of USA?

To those that don't know, Dr. Ron Paul is a past Republican Congressman and has run for President of the US in '88 as a Libertarian and in '08 & '12 as a Republican. He has been the leader in the resurgence of the true Constitutional Conservatives in GOP (Grande Ole Party - Republican) and the Tea Party movement started on Dec 16, 2007 (234th anniversary of the original Boston Tea Party where American colonists threw hundreds of tea leave chests into the Boston harbor in protest of King George's tea tax w/o representation) where his Presidential campaign raised $6.1 million in a single day's "moneybomb" which was the largest single day donation drive in US history. At the end of his 2nd Prez campaign, he started the Campaign for Liberty which is a pro-liberty lobbying organization to which I'm a state and national member. He also has his own Ron Paul Channel online and as well as his Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity. His son is a popular and iconic US Senator from Kentucky and is a front-runner for the GOP nomination in 2016. The Paul's and their allies represent and significant shift in the GOP to return to following the Constitution and stopping civil liberty invasions, out of control govt spending and a more reasonable and restrained foreign policy - all of which is the opposite of what the Bush Republicans stand for.

I visited Yoakum, TX and looked to buy a house there.  It was a very nice 3 bedroom with hardwood floors, large pecan trees, a nice detached workshop, garden space, and a shelter for animals, though I have forgotten whether it was chickens or goats.  The price was about 1/4 of the cost of our Austin house.

It turns out that the people there pretty solidly don't want taxes.  They vote for Ron Paul, and they are happy with no taxes.  As near as I can tell, Ron Paul delivers on his "minimal government" idea, his rhetoric and his action agree with each other.  His district likes him.

I respect this.

The reason that I did not move there was because of all the things that you get with no taxes.  There were holes big enough to swallow a Volkswagen in the roads.  The sidewalks were busted up.  Store after store was out of business.  Many streetlights were burned out.  Many roads within the town were unpaved.  It was like visiting a vibrant ghost town.  We sat with our prospective neighbors across the street.  She was a nurse.  In the conversation, it became pretty apparent that the physicians, nurses, pharmacists, attorneys, were the only people in town who had studied after college.  There was no live music scene, a difficult thing to abandon in Austin.  There was no entrepreneurial environment, unless selling 100 year old rusty horse shoes and kerosene lanterns to tourists, or starting a beauty salon meets your criteria for entrepreneurial.

I like the idea of a $50,000/year job with taxis, restaurants, music, roads that don't tear up my car, and $10,000 in taxes more than I like the idea of no taxes, $20,000/year job, and no amenities.

Paul SHOULD be the president next but WON'T be without being assassinated or votes manipulated just because he stands for the right things. Just like all the other presidents of the countries who didn't like to cooperate with US corporations to create US monopolies long term in different sectors.

They turned city hall into a den of bribes and kickbacks making themselves rich.

Perhaps. Or perhaps he is a batshit crazy lunatic.....

Pretty annoying when you don't give context...

What are you talking about?

There is no way Ron Paul as a U.S. congressman for a single district in Texas could eliminate taxes. He can't remove your federal or state income tax liabilities, state sales tax, or even property tax, so what are you talking about?

Also, if you want to compare what you get with taxes then try looking at Detroit which has some of the highest property taxes in the nation, fire departments with sewage backing up through the floor and holes in the boots but with the fire chief building a $60M new housing facility.

And Detroit is not alone. Governments are inefficient and the bigger they are the more inefficient (and probably corrupt) they are.

...he's your typical politician, loudmouthing about everything that's currently popular.
Bitcoin is no exception.

Absolutely incorrect. He has been speaking consistently on the evils of fiat currencies since first elected to congress in 1976. He seems to be speaking about Bitcoin only because other foes of fiat keep asking him about it.

He follows his agenda like any other politician.
