I took a long hard look at Ron Paul as a result of your claim.

I paid particular attention to his financials, which were disclosed to the FEC as consequence of his political career.

I discovered that his primary investments were in CaronaLtd and mining, particularly gold mining.

While C****aLtd started out as a shoe manufacturer, they currently have zero employees. They are still very profitable. I distrust companies that make money, particularly big money, without actually producing anything. Where does the money come from?

His heavy investment in gold mining makes me deeply suspicious of his call for a return to the gold standard as this would be a major windfall for the gold production industry.

His specific mining investments are in Goldcorp and Newmont Mining. Newmont Mining purchased Goldcorp. Both companies were cited in connection with a fatal accident that k**led an underground technician. It was found that the accident was the result of operator error because he didn’t follow company safety procedures. In connection with the investigation it was also found that the equipment he was using at the time had not been properly maintained, although it was not determined to be a contributing factor in the accident.

Let’s take a look at the two elements. The implementation of health and safety procedures and the failure to properly maintain equipment.

Just because safety procedures are in place doesn’t mean that they are actually followed on the ground.

Usually this is the result of heavy pressure to produce more product at a faster pace than safety allows. In these cases, workers find it impossible to follow these procedures while accomplishing the tasks assigned at the speed required of them. Frequently these procedures are written in full knowledge of the situation and are nothing more than a means to avoid taking responsibility for the companies actual conduct.

Failure to properly maintain equipment indicates a culture of negligence throughout the company particularly where safety is involved.

So let’s take another look at Ron Paul’s pet peeves.

Dodd-Frank which not only required industries (included mining) to disclose known violations of health and safety requirements, but also required public corporations to disclose the risks involved in choosing to invest in their company. As gold production companies are particularly risky, this definitely impacts their stock valuations.

Regulation, particularly EPA and campaign spending regulations.

It’s rather obvious why EPA regulation would interfere with the profits of mining companies.

Opposition to Federal attempts to regulate campaign spending indicate far more nefarious motivations. Unlimited opportunity to invest in political matters makes it far easier for corporatists to steer political forces in their favor.

Another one of his major investments is in banking, specifically First National Bank of Lake Jackson.

We all know how annoying Dodd-Frank is to the banking industry.

A recent development in Ron Paul’s advocacy relates to the Texas Gold Repository. Recently he has been encouraging other states to keep their gold there.

Funny how someone with such heavy investments in gold would support a Texas Constitutional amendment to exempt the Repository from ad valorum taxation. These taxes are imposed on real and personal property. Including, but not limited to, real estate and commodities (like gold). It just so happens that this exemption would extend to all gold in the state (like the gold Ron Paul has).

From these facts it is apparent that Ron Paul is not the man you think he is.

Saspatz007 Honey! are you really that thick and ignorant?
Ron Paul has never waivered from supporting sound Constitutional "money".

Are you not aware that people tend to invest in what they strongly believe in?

The Fed is self serving.Do you know who owns and runs The Federal Reserve?

Hare is a start:

On May 23, 1933, Congressman, Louis T. McFadden, brought formal charges against the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank system, The Comptroller of the Currency and the Secretary of United States Treasury for numerous criminal acts, including but not limited to, CONSPIRACY, FRAUD, UNLAWFUL CONVERSION, AND TREASON. The petition for Articles of Impeachment was thereafter referred to the Judiciary Committee and has YET TO BE ACTED ON. So, this ELECTRONIC BOOKLET should be reprinted, reposted, set up on web pages and circulated far and wide. (For the whole expose – Google: Congressman McFadden Fed expose)

Congressman McFadden's Speech
On the Federal Reserve Corporation
Quotations from several speeches made on the Floor of the House of Representatives by the Honorable Louis T. McFadden of Pennsylvania. Mr. McFadden, due to his having served as Chairman of the Banking and Currency Committee for more than 10 years, was the best posted man on these matters in America and was in a position to speak with authority of the vast ramifications of this gigantic private credit monopoly. As Representative of a State which was among the first to declare its freedom from foreign money tyrants it is fitting that Pennsylvania, the cradle of liberty, be again given the credit for producing a son that was not afraid to hurl defiance in the face of the money-bund. Whereas Mr. McFadden was elected to the high office on both the Democratic and Republican tickets, there can be no accusation of partisanship lodged against him. Because these speeches are set out in full in the Congressional Record, they carry weight that no amount of condemnation on the part of private individuals could hope to carry.
The Federal Reserve-A Corrupt Institution
"Mr. Chairman, we have in this Country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Banks, hereinafter called the Fed. The Fed has c***ted the Government of these United States and the people of the United States out of enough money to pay the Nation's debt. The depredations and iniquities of the Fed has cost enough money to pay the National debt several times over.
"This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of these United States, has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the defects of the law under which it operates, through the maladministration of that law by the Fed and through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it.
"Some people who think that the Federal Reserve Banks are United States Government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lenders. ….. (For the whole expose – Google: Congressman McFadden Fed expose)
"These twelve private credit monopolies were deceitfully and disloyally foisted upon this Country by the bankers who came here from Europe and repaid us our hospitality by undermining our American institutions. Those bankers took money out of this Country to finance Japan in a war against Russia. They created a reign of terror in Russia with our money in order to help that war along. They instigated the separate peace between Germany and Russia, and thus drove a wedge between the allies in World War. They financed Trotsky's passage from New York to Russia so that he might assist in the destruction of the Russian Empire. They fomented and instigated the Russian Revolution, and placed a large fund of American dollars at Trotsky's disposal in one of their branch banks in Sweden so that through him Russian homes might be thoroughly broken up and Russian children flung far and wide from their natural protectors. They have since begun breaking up of American homes and the dispersal of American children. "Mr. Chairman, there should be no partisanship in matters concerning banking and currency affairs in this Country, and I do not speak with any.
"In 1912 the National Monetary Association, under the chairmanship of the late Senator Nelson W. Aldrich, made a report and presented a vicious bill called the National Reserve Association bill. This bill is usually spoken of as the Aldrich bill. Senator Aldrich did not write the Aldrich bill. He was the tool, if not the accomplice, of the European bankers who for nearly twenty years had been scheming to set up a central bank in this Country and who in 1912 has spent and were continuing to spend vast sums of money to accomplish their purpose.
"We were opposed to the Aldrich plan for a central bank. The men who rule the Democratic Party then promised the people that if they were returned to power there would be no central bank established here while they held the reigns of government. Thirteen months later that promise was broken, and the Wilson administration, under the tutelage of those sinister Wall Street figures who stood behind Colonel House, established here in our free Country the worm-eaten monarchical institution of the "King's Bank" to control us from the top downward, and from the cradle to the grave. ……..
PRESIDENT JACKSON'S TIME
"One of the greatest battles for the preservation of this Republic was fought out here in Jackson's time; when the second Bank of the United States, founded on the same false principles of those which are here exemplified in the Fed was hurled out of existence. After that, in 1837, the Country was warned against the dangers that might ensue if the predatory interests after being cast out should come back in disguise and unite themselves to the Executive and through him acquire control of the Government. …..
"The danger that the Country was warned against came upon us and is shown in the long train of horrors attendant upon the affairs of the t*****rous and dishonest Fed. Look around you when you leave this Chamber and you will see evidences of it in all sides. This is an era of misery and for the conditions that caused that misery, the Fed are fully liable. This is an era of financed crime and in the financing of crime the Fed does not play the part of a disinterested spectator. … "The Fed became law the day before Christmas Eve, in the year 1913, and shortly afterwards, the German International bankers, Kuhn, Loeb and Co. sent one of their partners here to run it.
THE GREAT DEPRESSION
"Meanwhile and on account of it, we ourselves are in the midst of the greatest depression we have ever known. From the Atlantic to the Pacific, our Country has been ravaged and laid waste by the evil practices of the Fed and the interests which control them. At no time in our history, has the general welfare of the people been at a lower level or the minds of the people so full of despair. …. As Agents of the foreign central banks the Fed try by every means in their power to reduce our favorable balance of trade. (Remember; this warning was written in 1934)
