Ron Paul is a fucking hypocrit, like all the rest of 'em:
Ron Paul Calls Social Security and Medicare Unconstitutional, Compares Them to 'Slavery' | ThinkProgress
And yet:
Ron Paul Admits He's On Social Security, Even Though He Believes It's Unconstitutional
On Morning Joe, Sam Stein Grills Ron Paul About Why He Collects Social Security | Mediaite
The Republican mantra: Fuck entitlements but keep your hands off mine!!
From your link:
I want young people to opt out of Social Security, but my goal isn’t to cut. I think this is where the Republicans make a mistake. They’re seen as cutting food stamps and increasing the military budget. I think that’s bad politics and so, in my more pragmatic stance on how we get to the place where i want to go, actually, I’m offering a program where some of the programs we have taught people to be so dependent on, I would probably preserve them longer than others because we’re going to lose them because of the bankruptcy that is coming.
and he continues
“Social security, like I said, I would preserve the Social Security the best I can,” said Paul, “but we want to get off. But this is one program we were supposed to be paying into an insurance program.”
