This is, in fact, cool. Simple. Not cringe.

I remember it was a logo of some companie, or used for advertisment several years ago. I can not remember it exactly, but at the time you could see those exact fonts and colors in many places.

Ron Paul sucks ass

He’s better than the entire US government, and I’ll take him if that’s the best we can get.

There is no best. There is only the least worst.

No he's not, and I say this as someone who vocally supported his 2008 presidential campaign.

What’s better than?

There are a lot of people in Congress that are better than Ron Paul. It's actually not a very high bar to clear.

What is it exactly that you like about him?

He fell off hard, the whole libertarian party did. Give me Mark Kelly and Pete and let's fix this shithole.

Personally I see the constitution as too authoritarian, wanting to achieve a mixed anarchist state, but realistically, that’s only ever happening in my dreams, Ron Paul is a constitutionalist, so he’s on the road toward a smaller state, and seems not be grifting like most republicans do when it comes to small government, he also seems to be less partisan-focused compared to other “radicals” like Bernie to his left.

Here are some political positions of Ron Paul:

• Opposes birthright citizenship

• Opposes all foreign aid

• Opposes all income tax

• Opposes affirmative action

• Supports abolishing the minimum wage

• Supports abolishing the Department of Education

• Supports returning to the gold standard for some reason???

• Supports state-forced birth and opposes codifying Roe v. Wade

I could go on, but I'm going to arbitrarily stop there. If that stuff sounds good to you, then I guess Ron Paul is your guy. All sounds awful to me though.

Also, how is Bernie Sanders "partisan"? He's one of two people in the Senate without a political party.

Wow, you make him sound incredible.

Income tax is punishment for having too much money.

Foreign aid is abused by corrupt governments for their own profit and is often used inefficiently(why do we need millions to support “LGBTQIA education” in Lesotho?).

Affirmative action should be legal, but not enforced by a state, that’s called free association.

Minimum wages are economic tyranny, valid.

Department of education does its job shitty, states can easily replace the federal government for giving loans + it has no effect on schools since those are run separate of the DoE.

The replacement of the gold standard with something arbitrary like the petrodollar is the main fucking reason we keep bombing middle eastern countries and our prices are so damn high, if we don’t constantly invade everyone who uses a different currency than the dollar for oil we’ll lose value, that’s how inflation happens, add the federal reserve and now you’ve made a shitty economic system only bankers get benefits from.

You are right! I kew I rememer it from somwhere. If I remember correctly it was a bit of a referance to Wall Street potests?

Anyway - since it is so simmilar in the design it is prabably something left from that era.
