Rand Paul: The Spending Bill Is Everything Republicans Say They Don’t Believe In

Sen. Rand Paul lambasted fellow Republicans signing on to the big-spending omnibus just passed by the Senate.

Fox News quoted some of Paul’s speech:

“To so-called conservatives who are quick to identify the socialism of Democrats: If you vote for this spending monstrosity, you are no better,” Paul said.

“If free money was the answer… if money really did grow on trees, why not give more free money?” he said. “Why not give it out all the time? Why stop at $600 a person? Why not $1,000? Why not $2,000? Maybe these new Free-Money Republicans should join the Everybody-Gets-A-Guaranteed-Income Caucus? Why not $20,000 a year for everybody, why not $30,000? If we can print out money with impunity, why not do it?”

Action Line: Paul specifically discussed what printing endless money will do to the value of the dollar. The destruction of the dollar is just one more way when you invest, they win.
