Default Re: Ron Paul and the Singularity

Then spread the message! Arguing that some politicians are ok and some taxes aren't that bad and the two party system can spawn a good choice sometimes isn't spreading that message.

That's the problem. Feel like they are helping. If they feel that Ron Paul is part of the solution then they are less likely to do the things that actually are part of the solution it's not enough to talk about your convictions you have to live them.

I am fairly confident that anyone who has already endlessly debated the finer points of politics and philosophy to have reached ACism in the first place, has no problem doing this the way we do it on this forum and perhaps in discussions with our friends and family. Voting for Ron Paul is in addition to all that, not in place of it.

Finally, you and I probably don't like it, but the fact is that there is a HUGE portion of the population in this country that doesn't care enough to discuss politics and philosophy at the dinner table or around the water cooler. All these people do is watch CNN, read the local metro paper and then go vote. If you ever want free markets and liberty to gain serious steam, you have to reach these people any way that you can. Getting a guy like Ron Paul a lot of publicity helps this.
