Going the Way of Rome

Yesterday’s article by Ron Paul was so good I felt it deserved another look. Here’s an excerpt:

Today, Washington politicians can busily “solve” one problem, knowing that unintended consequences from that “solution” will keep them and their friends all very busy tomorrow. The people are ultimately left suffocating under the burden of Washington’s helping hands. It is coming to a point where our economy, our dollar, and indeed, the rest of the world have had about all the help from Washington that they can stand.

The United States is headed the way of Rome and the Soviet Union, for the same reasons, unless we reverse the trend.
