Ron Paul and Glenn Beck Discuss the Federal Reserve on CNN … The more problems we create, the more government the people demand
Selective Transcript:
BECK: Well, I have to tell you, I am more convinced than ever the cause of almost all of our problems in our nation come from the building that you`re standing in right now.
Almost everything that Congress does, at least in the last 100 years, we end up paying for. And then they`re fixing the problems that they created. I mean, it`s — this story over and over and over again. And yet, you know, they want to expand programs, they want to make everything bigger.
PAUL: And I can boil that down to the fact that the people around this place in D.C. and in the capital and the executive branch and in the judicial branch, they don`t care that much about our Constitution, because if we followed the Constitution, we wouldn`t have these spending programs and we wouldn`t be causing all these problems.
And yet the more problems we create, the more government the people demand. For every problem we create down here, or try to solve, then we create two new problems. And it goes on and on and it pyramids up. And some day we`re going to have to realize we can`t afford this much government any longer. We`ve got — we`ve got to depend on ourselves and on freedom and sound money rather than thinking that Washington, D.C., can solve all our problems.
