Kentucky Senator Jim Bunning Grills Bernanke

This is why Rand Paul needs to Replace Bunning, instead of Trey. Rand Paul agrees that the Federal Reserve is the most corrupt, wealth destroying entity in the Federal Government right now. While Trey is getting funded by bankers who received bailouts and Senators who voted for them, Rand Paul is openly attacking the Federal Reserve and the Central Bank.

For more on this issue check out Thomas Woods Meltdown: A Free-Market Look at Why the Stock Market Collapsed, the Economy Tanked, and Government Bailouts Will Make Things Worse. This is the simplest easiest to read book about why we're currently in the financial mess that we're in. The federal reserve destroys the value of our money to pay for all the excesses of the government, and this causes inflation.

This is why Rand Paul is so concerned about the debt, and why he believes we're going to be paying for it through hi inflation. Not next generation, but in the next couple years if we don't get back on course fast.

Of course don't forget his fathers book, End the Fed on the same subject.

Rand Paul on Cap and Trade

WKYT Reports:

U.S. Senate Candidate Rand Paul spoke a town hall meeting to discuss the so-called "Cap and Trade" bill in Pikeville.

Paul says the legislation, if passed, would be a disaster for Kentucky.

He also talked about the EPA's decision to hold up 79 mountaintop permits for additional scrutiny.

“I think there's a silent war by Obama, against coal. it's not on the front pages, but you can see it and you can feel in when you're in eastern Kentucky. You talk to anyone who either works in the coal fields or is a supplier for the coal industry, you feel this tension...that the industry is being choked,” Paul said.

The republican eye doctor from Bowling Green says if elected, he would defend the coal industry.

Rand Paul is correct here. There's a much better way to protect the environment then politically charged regulations. And that's private property rights. The property owner cares about the long term value of the property -- including the resale value after he or she is done exhausting the coal from said property. So since there are environmental groups or other bidders that desire mountaintops to stay mountaintops or otherwise care about maintaining the integrity of the other resources, the owner is going to preserve as much of that as is economically feasible and balance that future resale value with the increase or decreased cost of mining.

There's a really short, easy to read book on the subject that I recommend to people on this topic called Free Market Environmentalism. Capitalism and the Environment work together under a system of private property rights. Another, more involved book about the Environmentalism and Global Warming in particular is The Skeptical Environmentalist: Measuring the Real State of the World by Bjørn Lomborg, a former Green Peace activist.

Rand Paul: Kill the Death Tax

David Adams writes.

Rand Paul supports permanent repeal of the punishing 45% Washington D.C. Death Tax in order to promote entrepreneurship and job creation in America. While the Death Tax is scheduled to drop to zero at the end of this month, Congressional Democrats are rushing through a bill to restore the tax and keep soaking hard-working families in the name of class warfare and wealth redistribution.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to call up HR 4154, the Death Tax restoration bill, for a vote this week. Rand opposes this and all other tax increases.

We should all call our US House Reps and tell them to oppose this bill.

What David Adams doesn't mention here is that the Death Tax -- as the statute currently stands, will come back full force to it's pre-Bush levels in 2011, if legislation isn't passed to make it's abolition permanent.

Congress tried that back in 2003. But now the consequence of delay is more imminent.

Check out this article by Paul Boytinck
Death and Taxes – Can the Congress Kill a Pernicious Tax?

So, Not only does Pelosi's bill need to be defeated. We actually need to pass a bill to make the tax cuts permanent. And Rand Paul's the only viable candidate running for US Senate that has vowed to fight for that.

Rand Paul: Helping out the Kentucky GOP

Rand Paul was at a fund raising event for conservative Republican candidate, Jimmy Higdon, in Bardstown Monday Night.

Thanks to BlueGrass Bulletin for this photo of Paul being introduced by Senate Floor leader Robert Stivers, flanked by Senator Dan Seum and Congressman Brett Guthrie..

This is really an impressive display I think and goes to show that this disconnect Rand Paul talks about between the national leadership and grass roots Republicans on the local level is real. At an event of local Republican KY state senators and reps, Rand Paul is welcomed with open arms. While at the same time, Trey Grayson (again) is nowhere to be found.

BlueGrass writes:

First, his status as a featured guest shows that he has been taken seriously by the mainstream GOP. Second, it shows that he and at least one other federal candidate, Brett Guthrie, know the importance of keeping a balance of power in Frankfort as the legislature takes up the important duty of re-drawing Congressional Districts and state senate and representative districts following the 2010 census.

Here are parts 2 and 3 of Rand Paul's Jimmy Higdon event.
