The Economics of Slavery
Let's get something straight ... I disagree with Ron Paul on several major aspects of economics. The United States was intended to be a union of states and markets were principally confined to the union and tariffs imposed to protect those markets. Today, we have international markets and all the turmoil created as a result of excess consumption and debt. Why doesn't President Trump get tough on this illegal invasion? See the title of this thread. Nothing has changed since the Civil War. We've simply exchanged personal slavery for slavery to a CEO whose company needs cheap labor. In an era of robotics, the United States has more than enough labor, but international corporations want cheap labor. Hence, the invasion continues while American workers are displaced to the point of homelessness.
The average American will only regain his security and independence again when he understands the need to restrain these multinational corporations and accept the economic consequences of protectionism via higher prices for some products. Only then can both our borders and economic security be assured. Free trade was intended to be free only among the union of states, not some foreign entity. If contact is formally established one day with aliens, I can just imagine the Chamber of Commerce demanding access to their markets as well. This cosmic economic insanity must stop ... now! Unfortunately, President Trump can't really do much until Americans see their independence and security as more important than consumption.

Regarding the number of posts by certain members of "A Call to Paul", I suggest the members agree to limit the number of their posts to 3 in any 24 hour period. Those 3 posts should be topics of unique concern to the poster and should probably be accompanied by personal opinion. We do NOT need the mere linking of articles from elsewhere as the members can find those articles themselves and just wastes space on the front page of "A Call to Paul".
