Re: The Ron Paul Fundraising Challenge

what did ron paul do to reduce the size of govt in his own state?

Since he's never been a state politician, you're holding him to awfully lofty standards to think he is for some reason supposed to have decreased the size of that government.
What he did do though as a private citizen is to do his part by not accepting medicare or medicaid payments from patients, and instead working for free if need be. He also did not let his kids accept any federal funding for their education, and instead paid the way for all 5 of them.
If everyone had that attitude, government would indeed be much smaller. But he is only one man, sorry he wasn't able to sneeze and wipe out his state's government for you.
