"We should never forget the Constitution wasn't written to restrain citizens' behavior. It was written to restrain the government's behavior."
-RAND PAUL
Sounds a bit like the Magna Carta that Neil Oliver talks about which limited the things the Monarchy could do.
It also restrains citizens... You can't violate the Bill of Rights either.
it is a felony, it is called Conspiracy Against Rights. Look it up.
@@caterinajones1806 ...of course - that was one of the templates for the American Constitution - the American founders were naturally well aware of it as well as the 600 years of history that had transpired since it was written.
I am very disappointed to say that I agree with you wholeheartedly!
I didn't realize he had said that. What a powerful statement!
It is suicidal to allow politicians to make important decisions when they pay no price for being wrong!
Yes
A M E N !
Taxation without representation. We fought a war with a king over that.
I mean, they have to pay moving costs to run to another country when ours crashes and burns.
But then again that's our stolen money to begin with, so I guess you're right.
That's why we should vett these folks, before we vote.....with the age of the internet, if your looking for bad behavior, more than likely you'll be stunned at what you can actually find.....great point...
"The 9 most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government, and I'm here to help." -Ronald Reagan
Reagan became immediately different in his first year, after the assassination attempt. He removed the Fairness Doctrine which is the direct reason the news isn't the "news".
Here is another one “The most dangerous thing in the world is a broke and desperate government.”
Ronald Reagan should have been prosecuted for Iran-contra!

That debt is embarrassing. Big government is killing our country.
And Trump said that in almost every interview he was in for the last 30-40 years never changing his stance on what America SHOULD be doing to fix it. Thats how I started my research on him. I never watched the Apprentice, I just knew he was really wealthy.
Best thing I saw was the 1991 Housing & Means committee on C-span for 50 minutes while he explained to the panel of politicians where they effed up & how to fix it. Excellent watch.
Must make it small
Thank you for the information
... and stop voting for liberal policies.
I have 3 homes paid for, rent out 2 and live in a small cottage on a creek. No vehicle payments, no credit card debt. Should I now pay for those that could have done the same?
Trim the fat in the government, if elected officials don't show up to meetings cut their pay.
What fat?
If they do not read bills that cross their desks, they aren't doing their job. Instant removal.
Who gonna do dat exactly? Dem?
I wish I had PLATINUM health insurance like the corrupt politicians voted for themselves... instead of my Bronze.
Fire them
It really bugs me when these guys talk about social security and medicare as if they were government benefits. None of us who are receiving these "benefits" see them as welfare. In fact hardly any of us will get back the money we paid into those programs while we were working. They were taxes when we were working and now they are being taxed again and treated as a government dole while the government fails to account for what they took or where that money went that they took from us under penalty of criminal prosecution. We didn't choose those plans; they were imposed upon us.
They are an insurance policy.
The return/risk accounting clearly show ur incorrect - The 'olders' absolutely got more than they ever paid in.. SS etc is and has been a pozi ..
An insurance policy is a contract between the seller and the buyer, which is binding to both. Social Security and Medicare are only binding to the citizen; the government does whatever it pleases and changes the terms of the "contract" whenever it pleases.
The next generation pays you for that. Just saying. Ask why or where the money went. You made 1 million in your lifetime. Half of that is to pay you for your retirement... You think the next generation has the money. Yeah nice try. Sadly when I retire... That gen hasn't worked a day in their life.
@@francom6230
I am with you as far as people will draw more in SS and Medicare benefits than they and their employers ever put in as far as a flat payment. I’m not good at figuring out what your investment would accrue over the years in terms of interest so I can’t argue that point.
If everyone would just go to the SSA website you can actually see how much was collected over their years of employment how much was taken out of their paycheck and how much their employer contributed to Medicare and SS.
I don’t know if it is right to call it a Ponzi scheme however. What justifies having a government program that provides benefits to individuals is that there will always be people in the workforce who contribute to the plan. This would continue until there are no longer enough people working and supporting the plan or life ends as we know it. It appears that we are going to have to deal with the first one…
Maybe Government should take a year off of spending - they made the public take a year of of working and going to church - freeze government spending, move the FBI / CIA budget to the border, lay off everyone at the IRS, and make all elected officials take a paycut like we all have
DIDO I AGREE THATS WHY WE NEED TERM LIMITS!!!
LOL, that would bankrupt the government and most of the country, not a good idea!
yeah, tell a Dem to stop spending... they won't know what to do LOL
Nice 👌
@@AMarie_USA Repbulicans spend just as much. Where were all these fiscally responsible conservatives under Trump when the GOP had control of all both branches of govt AND the presidency? Why are they so concerned with spending now when they barely control one branch of congress? Weird that they couldn't do anything under unified control and now they think they can cut spending with barely any control.
The main problem is corruption among the politicians. They are the cause of what we suffer through, because of they’re acceptance of graft and the constant act of enriching themselves.
Only God will save man from man, the evil in man’s heart will bring this world to the brink of extinction as technology grows.👺
na
They won’t do what Paul suggests because it is simple, sensible, and they won’t make personal gains by it!
Personal Pelosi gains ?? ( and everyone else !!! )
It was Larry Kudlow who changed the tide when he was working for Trump. He is a brilliant man. Rand is also a great Senator.
@@marilynmysak5889 na, he spent all his time crying over the lose of "free"trade.
God bless America.
The Tea Party is starting to sound a little more reasonable now aren't they?
Taxation without representation. We fought a war against a king over that.
The tyranny we face today is far worse than ol King George
We have so called "Representation" supposedly 🙄
We used to talk to each other that way, but not anymore. It’s hurtful. We are way past throwing some tea in a harbor. Until heads roll, the behavior won’t change.
Actually a bunch of wealthy guys did that- hence the 3% thing....
There's a new king now.
I paid a lot of my hard work into Social Security, and I expect to get what I put my money into. I’m sure other Americans feel the same way.
This is a top matter of national security. Those in congress who put forward an unbalanced budget should be tried as traitors. They are not good stewards of the money they take from the taxpayers. It's an irresponsible dereliction of duty.
I agree
The government should legally have to run a balanced budget. Tax payers are tired of the BS spending out of Washington.
That will take a Constitutional amendment, and democrats will never let that happen.
@@morrismonet3554 why would it take something as significant as a Constitutional Amendment?? I don't mean that in a snarky way. I just truly don't understand. can you elaborate?
@@jenns.5791 Because there is no other legal way to force congress to do it. Most states only run balanced budgets because their state constitution demands it.
Most of the wasteful spending is military spending, but that's not what they want to cut
@@morrismonet3554 yes like Florida. They always have a surplus and savings because they legally have to run a balanced budget.
“No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth!” ― Ronald Reagan
@@JS-ki5yq Help me to understand something, you seem to be saying the capitalist system lies at root of the problem, that unless you put a cap on how much people own you will end up with a larger government. So how do you regulate wealth and impose the caps you recommend? Sounds like you need a large, intrusive, apparatus to pull that off which is exactly what you get with a socialist system. Or will people just naturally give back what they have earned (or stolen for that matter) and say, you're right, we need to share the wealth in order to shrink the size of government, my bad?
It sounds like you are railing against crony capitalism, which I agree is a problem, but to pin it all on capitalism is a false assertion. Plenty of people enriched themselves in the socialist paradises they were claiming to be working on while the average person starved or was imprisoned for asking uncomfortable questions about how the whole thing was supposed to work. Is our government broken? You bet it is. Is it broken because of the capitalist system? There, I respectfully disagree. There are plenty of billionaires drinking from the government trough, but that game is as old as humanity itself. You know who would get rich off a system that imposed caps? The cappers.
His cuts in domestic discretionary spending and taxes, as well as increased military spending, contributed to a near tripling of the federal debt.
Reagan became immediately different in his first year, after the assassination attempt. He removed the Fairness Doctrine which is the direct reason the news isn't the "news".
@@Redmanticore sources please.
That’s not totally true. The Civilian Conservation Corps started under Rosesvelt. was cut once Obama was elected. That was one of the most beneficial projects that America has ever had. Trains young men in a litany of skills and experience and certifications. Now it’s gone.
I learned masonry, carpentry , forestry and construction and heavy machinery. Even took part with Smoke Jumpers to help build fire breaks when California was burning outta control.
It’s a shame that so many young men and women will no longer eveh have the opportunity to experience the C.C.C.
Bottom line It's Our money Not theirs, enough said! We want term limits! Let's freeze spending. My favorite Senator who represents US All,Thank You Mr. RAND PAUL!
Read that piece of paper in your wallet again. It is the property of the Federal Reserve CORPORATION. It isn't your 'money," and it never was. What you put in the bank isn't yours anymore, either; it is a loan to the bank, which can be forgiven/erased by the NCUA (for credit unions) or Federal Reserve (for banks,) and you lose everything without compensation, because you are an unsecured creditor. It's called a "bail-in;" go ask your bank. I did. The FDIC just had a meeting on it. They decided that while a bail-in was certain, they weren't going to notify the public, because they didn't want people taking their money out. You have some research to do!
We're under satanic rule , Jesus himself only human God could change, to many trillions in dems hands
Social Security is NOT an entitlement for those that actually earned that money that the government has taken without permission!!!
PUT ALL ELECTED OFFICIALS ON AN HOURLY WAGE INSTEAD OF THE THOUSANDS THEY GET EVERY MONTH THEN MAYBE THEY MIGHT ACTUALLY WORK FOR WE THE PEOPLE
Just let the states that elect them pay their salaries, and base their salaries on the States Economy, if they want more money the make the states economy better.
No. You think corruption is bad now lmao. Do something like that and it will only get worse.
Good luck with that 😂
Stop allowing them to give themselves raises & take ALL the perks away.
😂they never
Rand Paul is so much better than Kentucky's other senator.
Is the OTHER Kentucky senator the God-Father of Hunter Biden? Why did Biden visit the OTHER senator just before he went to Mexico?
Rand Paul is better than most senators.!
Freeze the budget or very least trim 100 billion dollars off which will pay off in the future in more money in people's pockets through a stronger dollar, my guess atleast.
Randy is a puddle of excrement
Ohio has great senator's to
I’m tired of the government setting up “commissions”. They need to commit to stop spending money period. They all know exactly where the garbage spending is and they don’t have the will to cut out the fat !
This man is underrated. Rand Paul Should be the Senate Leader
Imagine how low taxes would be if they were responsible with OUR money
Great point. I would rather pick a random person off the street to be making budget decision in Congress over what’s there now. I have a feeling if you gave an average person a month to sit down and analyze spending at the federal level you’d be looking at cutting 20-30% not begging for a 1% cut. If it’s in the Constitution spend money on it, if not don’t spend money on it. At that point we’d probably have 60% spending cuts.
They re missing the bigger picture with this garbage reporting seems to me
Yeah but that would put quite a crimp in Zelensky's real estate holdings...
Our taxes are already very low, especially when you include all the deductions and loopholes. The first thing they should do is get rid of all those and then they could lower tax rates across the board and still bring in more revenue than they do now.
@@leftymcgarnigle9742 Typical economic tripe - they are not that low when one considers all the taxes cumulatively...at least not for people who earn income. The tax code is rigged for the uber-wealthy, who don't earn their money. That said, they could confiscate everything the top 10% have, and it wouldn't make much difference in our national debt. If the Petrodollar is compromised to any serious degree, then all that debt we've exported will result in a flood of USD back to our shores, and then we will see real inflation.
BTW - inflation is a tax; for anyone who understands economics and fiscal policy.
We must be able to identify each politician's corporate sponsors and real agendas!
That would be a good start..
They would look like NASCAR drivers.

Love these two men. Common sense is wonderful and so refreshing. Thank you
Rand looks broken.. but then again,when you know what he knows and can’t tell people,it’ll eat you from the inside-out.
I watched his father deal with this most of my sixty five years of life. I am amazed Rand is able to stomach it as well as he does. Ron looks like the effort he went through.
He looks fine. He certainly is fighting an uphill battle l must say... I can't imagine getting into politics as an honest person nowadays! God bless him for speaking out and trying.
Senator Paul is one of the good guys! We need more like him.

As long as there's only one they'll just ignore him.

Shouldn't he have served one or two periods, then go to the private sector?
Ha! Ha!
Let's start with daily punch in/out time cards for Congress.
Thank you guys. We're lucky to have you.
Can anyone tell me why we even have a “debt ceiling” if they just keep raising it?
It's a dumb rule Congress put in place years ago. Dumb because we already borrowed the money, the ceiling just stops us from paying the loans back. In other words, the debt ceiling is fiscally irresponsible. Bad news for all of us if the government defaults on its debts.
God Bless Rand Paul . A True American Patriot and Hero !
🤣
Goddam Randy's eyes.
first get kuntucky off federal aid its a welfare state tehn worry about deficit

Audit the Fed? There isn't anything Federal about the Federal Reserve. While the Board of Governors is an independent government agency, the Federal Reserve Banks are set up like private corporations. The "FED" answers to no one.

Invest in Digital assets its a great way to invest your money. The team is constantly checking the market for changes and make sure that you are always informed about the best time to invest.

That's great! may I ask who's your portfolio manager?

On my side , Sir Rodger M. Karl has been managing my investment for month,s and I keep making lots of gains every week. I've worked with several investment analyst in the past but none of them is as efficient and proficient as Rodger.
My colleague said that Rodger M. Karl's strategy has been helping a lot of traders/ holders out there, with his program and she was able to recover her losses from the crash so swiftly.....
The problem with getting people back to work in regards to the government that is in existence now is, they rely completely on the government and as long as they get everything they need from the government, they can tell them what to do to earn the giveaways. Having a society that relies on the government gives the government that much more power.
Dr. Rand Paul is absolutely right in relation to debt control !
Yet trump ran up the debt biggly
The republicans created this debt under the bâton of orange hair trump!
Stop spending our money overseas.
Take care of America first!!!!
No tanks, no cash to Ukraine!!!!.
Stop it.

It's not just the work ethic. It is too expensive for housing, food, and car prices. The government needs to do something about this horrendous inflation.

thank you Mr. Kudlow for having Mr. Paul on your show.
Thank you Mr. Kudlow for sharing your brilliance with us and with men like Trump.
Rand Paul just like his father before him would be the only real choice for President in 2024
Oh my what part of the govt could we trim and do without? Almost any of it.
Like Rand Paul says...the government has plenty of money.
Sure they do, all the money they keep sucking away from the tax payers.
But what about the average American?
When are Americans going to have "plenty of money", so they can finally start having decent standards of living again?
As Soon as We The People get Rid Of ALL THE CRIMINAL POLITICIANS...& Not Until Then.. Only thing Politicians are Interested in is INSIDER TRADING that's how they become MILLIONAIRES Over Night
I know right!!! Between socialism ,ESG, and currency devaluation.... our standard of living will get worse. It's happening.
the price of homes and cars needs to be drastically reduced. Trump was even going to get carmakers to come up with super cheap car models that are good and basic. but the Dems attacked him til the government got all hung up on that false accusation impeachment stuff.

The US government has a "dine and dash" economic policy. First we pass spending bills, and then next year we increase the debt limit to pay for it.
Politicians keep your hands out of OUR social security and OUR Medicare.
100% Don’t Mess With Senior’s ! We worked many years!
Like when pelosi took $2.4 BILLION out of ss to pay for impeachment? Where did that money go?
Copy & roger that because we have to pay for these programs since coming out of the womb.
Social Security and Medicare are fundamentally Ponzi schemes. They must collapse. They are forced, and not voluntary. They are socialistic. They are left-wing, not conservative. They should be privatized.
The things We The People need is the only things they seem to be willing to cut from.
its funny how individuals are shamed and punished for over-spending and carrying too much debt yet our own government commits this act every second of every day.
The problem is our GOVERNMENT! They are all spiritually ignorant & blind.
Unfortunately, most people come to this realization, but refuse to go any further, as if they feel that it's illegal to ask the question "why" more than once a year, or less.
The government reflects its voters, it's only as good as the people we vote in. If any politician tries to raise taxes to pay for all this spending they are voted out of office. If any politician tries to cut spending they are voted out of office. The voters like getting money from the government but they don't like giving money to the government, hence our present dilemma.
Are individuals really shamed for carrying debt? Almost everyone in this country is in debt, we are paying off mortgages, student loans, car payments, credit card payments, medical bills, and on and on. The federal government just reflects the behavior of it's citizens. A fiscally irresponsible government is what we deserve for being a fiscally irresponsible people.
@@leftymcgarnigle9742 voting is a joke. If you don't know that by now then you don't have much to bring to this discussion. The Medicare industry alone is destroyed by ridiculous health care costs. No one wants to talk about that tho
It’s refreshing to at least see some realistic ideas being discussed vs just arguing over raising the ceiling without any solutions.
Get rid of worthless government agencies, FBI, DHS, CIA ect...

Racism has been Running Rampant since Biden has taken office along with the pressuring of Our Young People to Change Who they are. They are Brainwashing the kids. It's an in your face and most of all a Subliminal Brainwashing.

They are using Every Single Tactic to Push Their Agendas forward at a Frightening Pace.
They are using Tactics that they would use in War, it's the same thing.
They want People to give up Their Own Thinking and Their Free will. They want everyone to give in to Their Agendas.
They want us at each other's throats in every/any way they can. They are giving it their All, they are throwing it All at us. Everything is being used to accomplish Their goals.
They aren't Hiding it, the Only thing that they Hide is the Subliminal parts of their Brainwashing. That part of it is All around you, it's in just about everything, Billboards, TV Shows, TV Commercials, Radio, Music, Books, Magazines, Movies, Packaging, The things they say, Words, Phrases, etc... it's everywhere.
Like I said, They have the Best in the Biz and have been Polishing their Techniques for a long, long time.
That will never happen though, that's what America really is now ,and will be till it falls wich I belive was planned .Noone in the govt really controls. And if they do they are bought or threatened
However, could you please place your finger on the Article in the Constitution that says, "Separation of Church and State?" There's the anti-establishment clause, meaning not having a national forced religion. That was put into place to keep one denominations of Christianity from imposing their doctrine on other denomination through the political process.

Excellent ideas here, Senator Paul. We gave away $100BILLION to Ukraine last year. If we had not done that, that amount alone would have been the first year of cuts right there. There is so much waste and fraud in our current government that it demands an immediate accounting.
I'm wondering what happened to the savings that should have been realized from not being in Iraq and Afghanistan any more. Instead we have another increase to the defense budget again this year.

The Congress allowed the grocery conglomerates to grow richer by subsidized Food Stamps, the WIC program, while passing higher food prices to the people. While farmers struggle to survive.
The Congress allowed doctors, hospitals, medical facilities, pharmacies and insurance companies to raise their rates, fees and premiums every year since the inception of Medicare and Medicaid. While the people got sicker.
Through Student Loans, colleges and universities tuition has constantly increased. Again this is because the Congress allows these behemoths to raise the rate to increase their wealth.
The Congress allowed the minimum wage to stagnant, and allowed companies to eroded pensions, destroyed unions.
The Congress allowed the people's good paying jobs be exported.
Through past fifty + years, the people and people's government have grown poorer because of the mismanagement by the Congress and the Execurive Branches.

TO ALL AMERICANS THE DEBT CEILING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BUDGET, IT'S ABOUT PAYING THE DEBT OFF FROM WHAT THE USA HAS ALREADY SPENT! THE REPUBLICAN'S ARE HOLDING 'SOCIAL SECURITY & MEDICARE' WE PAY FOR HOSTAGE so that they can steal it with their KLEPTOCRATIC SCHEMES. INSTEAD OF CUTTING SOCIAL SECURITY, HOW ABOUT CUTTING THE GOP'S SALARIES, LIFE-TIME MEDICAL, AND DELETE THEIR PENSIONS AND RAISING TAXES ON THE CORPORATIONS!

He is my top pick
Rand Paul would be a great President!
He is a warrior & knows how to deal with tough challenges & make effective good changes in our system.
How about cutting all those useless grants for needless studies on various random wildlife and things like that?
Agreed, like the mating habits of Quail.
Come on!
Everyone should know how many times a rabbit blinks its eyes while on acid.
The useless gender studies etc!!!
Republicans have proposed cutting Medicare and Social Security, Lisa. Would you rather cut those, or cut scientific studies that can teach us something?
Watch. Forbes Just. In. Rand Paul...
What criminals do best; spend someone else’s money
Cut out all the fraud and theft and we could have alot of money!
If only we could eradicate the corruption and grifting and with a little financial education, the average citizen could prosper beyond measure.
He actually is saying stop the waste and make small cuts and never feel pain!
that part is ok, but some could be cut more- like military waste, TSA, and NSA. and deport 20 million illegals on welfare/ gov't housing, who are also not paying tax on untaxed illegal wages.
The Federal Government should NOT be allowed to GIVE money to the States and Municipalities! This undermines and 100% dilutes the power of the people.
@@je4350 that’s not true. You’re just repeating some leftist agenda driven communist democrat. Stop lying and get a Bible and find a healthy minister to teach you how to stop lying 😜
@@je4350 what?
@@je4350 California receives more federal aid
I agree. Unless there is an emergency such as a huge tornado, or flood. Then, they could help out by 25 percent. Other States as well.
@@je4350 😆 seriously? Florida has other resources than Disney and tourists! Just like any state... If you think tourism is the largest staple for any state then you need a reality check!
Common sense talk is so unnatural for this country ; we need it to come back ! Thank you Rand Paul !
It Rand Paul, not Paul Rand.
@@tweetlebugzz it's it's, not it!
Only republicans lack any common sense. They also lack the ability to express any positive human emotion. They are incapable of love, empathy, hope, or compassion. Liberal change is happening, and conservatives are dying off. They are freaking out, because their hateful ideology represents a failure of society.
Run for President!!!!
He should at least take Mitch’s place. VP
Brilliant interview. Appreciate strong men like these at the helm. The rest of Congress is what concerns me. America needs to balance our budget and reverse our reckless spending threatening to bankrupt our country.
Kruddy didn't mention that while he was working for the 41st prez, Reagan raided social security and medicare
Senator Rand Paul should be President of the United States. America and the world need him to be promoted.
He ran in 2016….and lost lol
An issue I have with government spending is, there are no incentives to save money. Most of the time if a program or agency doesn't spend their allocated budget they are not allowed to roll any savings over to the next fiscal cycle which leads them to waste the money with frivolous spending. In other words government agencies are encouraged to waste money.
Hell yes they don't have to pay for it
I never went out on Thursday and spent every dollar i had knowing I was getting paid on Friday . That's exactly what government agencies do yearly ? ? ? ? Must be nice!
That is utterly insane I said use the 87000 IRS employees to do a full out nook n cranny investigation from top to bottom of wasted spending and 3 card Monty skimming scams
@@michaelsaville9697 Unfortunately, a lot of Americans do. That is one reason they stay poor all their lives.
I have seen it. If they do not spend all they are allocated it is taken away and their budget is reduced for the next year. Just face it people. The way that this Government operates is doomed too make everybody poor with only a few rich people. And eventually it will fail all together and the World will pick pver the carcass of a once great nation. Unless the Government changes drastically the way it operates. Like spending within its means like a financeally responcible adult.
The idea of a 1.7% across the board cut has great appeal. It's not much to pay to move us away from deficit spending to a balanced budget.
might work with a few program exceptions, where people's lives would be endangered. some overbloated wasteful unaccountable ones could actually afford to pay more. Military budget keeps losing a billion dollars disappeared without a trace here and there.
@@theCosmicQueen most every department is the same way
It also helps with inflation.
Wait, what? Those that have done well should pay the full cost of Medicare? Then where does the 3% tax that most working people pay for more than 40 years goes?
Watch and see.
I don't think you understood what Rand Paul was saying...
Ukraine: thanks for your money plebs 💵
hello? that tax is only for the middle and lower class. the upper class earners don't have to pay anywhere near 3% . because of the income cap.
@@codyramos3200 What was he saying?
Senator Paul ALWAYS makes so much sense! I'd like to see him advance to greater authority in his career, and bring political health and values back to life!!!
Simple defund the omnibus bill. Cut out pet projects. Get rid of excess fed govt. Get rid of atf, irs, and reshape doj fbi. Repeating fed programs will need to be considered on individual basis and delete those not needed. Cut social programs. Stop sending our dollars overseas. Take care us first.
Yep, let’s get ride off all US agencies, actually, let’s just have no laws and no consequences. Freedumb!
Only criminals want to defund law enforcement. Nice job of outing yourself, BJ.
Cur t s a, cut politicians salaries by 40% check and go public with all politicians taxes back to age 21, etc.
Biden is right for not negotiating with the GOP because they are going to slash YOUR Social Security/Medicare YOU pay for every week and raise taxes to 30% for all products for working Americans, while cutting taxes for corporations. How about raising taxes on the corporations, cutting the GOP's salaries, life-time medical, and delete their pensions.

America is turning into a society of people who don't measure success by quantifiable outcomes but rather how much money was spent
...and although we never were a full meritocracy, qualifications for any government position don't seem to matter. Just look at the present Cabinet Secretaries.
Yep. Odd how they go in with not a lot in their pocket, yet exit filthy rich. Far more money than their salary would supply.
CRAZY MIXED UP WORLD.
You guys are absolutely correct.
Thank you Senator Paul! And Mr Levine ❤
Politicians and their families should not be able to trade stocks as long as there is national debt.
Paul is a good man. We need more like him. He doesn't take any bs. Straight shooter.
this year will be a year of severe economic pain all over the nation.. what steps can we take to generate more income during quantitative adjustment?I can't afford my hard-earned $180,000 savings to turn to dust
Me too. I thought about investing in the financial market, I heard that people make millions if you know the tricks of the trade, but I lack good knowledge and a strategy to outperform the market and generate good yields. I have $160,000 but it's hard to bite the bullet and do it.
I hope everyone has money ready to invest at the appropriate time. Planned actions can help you secure your financial future. You still have the best chance of becoming a millionaire on the stock market.
We must consider safer investments with promising returns in order to plan for the future. If you approach investing with a five-year perspective and simply DCA whenever you receive a check. Under the direction of my investment advisor, "Jennifer Aaron Marcontell", whose expertise in portfolio diversification is unsurpassed and client-focused, my portfolio has gained almost $643k since January 2022.

@@BenjaminMcLeod815 Look her up online; she has a website where you can get in touch with her.
Thank you for sharing the truth with us all Rand Paul!!
Excellent interview Mr Kudlow. It’s plain common sense.
Being a self made “person” is one of the great rewards in life. Not living in the dole.
Work liberates
not too many run-ragged poor moms without a car or education and getting no time to sleep, are gonna be self made millionnaires . they need some help and should be allowed to raise thier kids safely and take the time to be a mother. Not dragging toddlers and babies on 3 busses to daycare, then another bus to work, every day IN THE DARK IN FREEZING WEATHER IN CRIME AREAS, and then eat instant top ramen and then she has housework, gets to bed at 3 am and up at 6. NOPE.
@@theCosmicQueen maybe…maybe that culture of fatherless families needs to change, not accepted and then financed. Start at the beginning, who made the choice?
You could cut as much as 1/3 of the jobs in government, especially upper management, and not a single thing would change for the people who use the service
Yep…cut 1/3 of the Senators and Congressmen while you’re at it!
No pork! Shut it down!
It's not a shutdown, you doofus.
Let’s make it plain: The debt ceiling has nothing to do with government shutdowns. Government shutdowns are about funding the operations of the federal government; the debt ceiling is about the nation’s borrowing authority and ability to avoid defaulting on our obligations.
Some GOP lawmakers appear to be under the impression that if they fail to raise the debt ceiling, the government would shut down. That’s not even close to being correct: If Republicans deliberately cause the United States to default on its obligations, the result would be a worldwide economic catastrophe vastly more serious than any temporary shutdown to federal operations.
RAND PAUL IS THE MOST STAND UP SENATOR WE HAVE !!, GOD BLESS THIS MAN FOR ALL HE IS TRYING TO DO TO FIX OUR COUNTRIES TRAJECTORY!!!!.
Hard times for the working man .
Love Sen. Paul!
I think this is a great story that can be sold to the American people. I hope you guys can sell it and implement it properly. The debt cannot continue to grow, it’s beyond unsustainable, it must be addressed.
So, the Rand Paul's of the GOP got us into this debt and now they're going to get us out. 🤔
"Addressing" the debt is like facing Sauron with only a slingshot.
Let me get in there and trim waste!! First thing to go is $200.haicuts for the white house. They have their own barber there. Y'all go to town and pay for your own haircuts, instead of the having taxpayers pay for it.
If they would put Senator Rand Paul in charge to trim the fat, we’d be better off for it!
Here’s an idea get rid of Yellen and put Senator Rand Paul in that position!!!!
God ... Listening to her talk is like Mr Rogers after 2 cases of beer...
Beware the Ides of March.
Yelled is a Democrat
I mean Yellon
BTW Trump did very well on economic issues , on the record , he quietly re-arranged programs to make them work better on less money. without cutting the resulting benefit . It's on the Federal Register and other places online. now HE actually has a degree in Economics from Wharton.
Speaking the truth out loud 📢📢
That's right rand Paul please freeze spending thats old fashioned politics its ashame we bring in 5 trillion dollars and can't balance a budget wow that's amazing where is all the money going
Just so interesting how they never contemplate to cut military spending.
Politicians love military spending especially if they have MIC industries and/or army bases in their state
This is insane. The millions receiving $$ without working or contributing ANYTHING to society will be removed, voluntarily or involuntarily as everything has a price and worked for.
Don't let them fool you, corporate welfare is magnitudes higher than social welfare. The problem is about 20% of people don't have the IQ(military did these studies ages ago) to really be able to hold any kind of complex job. That's just how nature works. Service industry and labour is about the best they can do BUT.........those jobs are being exported and done away with. So the only choice is to take care of these people or watch society fall apart as they find other ways to survive, usually criminal. The latter is happening due to bad policies like free trade, importing foreign workers, lack of border control, climate dogma(carbon taxes) and inflation causing a lack of jobs for the people who aren't ever going to have degrees AND at the same time increasing the cost of living for those people. Add to that other issues like drugs.........and well this was all easily predictable. They like to make you point fingers though because you feel good. The same old game the same old consequences and nobody ever learns on either side of the political line. Telling people they should work to be as poor as they are if they don't isn't a solution to anything.
The huge debt is due to bad management from government not due to people on straight Social Security.
they always try to steal it from the poorest.
