Political Theory

Excerpted from the two-part speech presented in Vienna, Austria, on 21 September 2011.

Austrians have a different way of understanding history. For Rothbard, for example, a particular price datum is, no less than the Spanish-American War, a historical event, and its causes must be traced back to the subjective aims governing human plans and choices.

Ron Paul runs an honest campaign. Unlike that of the typical politician who carefully tailors his speeches to match the prejudices or vested interests of his audience, Dr. Paul's message is always the same: fractional-reserve banking and fiat money are violations of historic legal principles.
