"But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law,' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual."

Sounds like exactly what it is. The FED has the authority to do what it wants under the Federal Reserve Act and there is no movement to recind that act. They are act fully within the confines of the constitution.
I'm not saying they're breaking law. I think the law is wrong.
Again, they are acting fully within the confines of the constitution.
Ok. Just because its law, doesn't mean its a good law.
It does if you believe in republican government. If you believe in republican government, you must affirm it as good, i.e. respect the law, until you build a political coalition big enough to overturn it.
No. I can disapprove of any law I want to because I`m an individual and enjoy my own free-will.
And on that note, I'm going walkabout for toilet paper. THE ABORIGINAL INDIANS. Both communal and individualistic. Think about it before you spew.
Sometimes what you say might make an obvious point to you but not anyone else. What do you mean?
Communality and individuality are innate.
"No. I can disapprove of any law I want to because I`m an individual and enjoy my own free-will."
Yes, but along the way you must respect the decision of democratic, republican governance.
Here's yet another reason why Ron Paul can not be classified as a libetarian:
Paul has said that federal officials changing the definition of marriage is "an act of social engineering profoundly hostile to liberty."[198] Paul stated, "Americans understandably fear that if gay marriage is legalized in one state, all other states will be forced to accept such marriages."[199] He says that in a best case scenario, governments would enforce contracts and grant divorces but otherwise have no say in marriage.[200] Paul has also stated he doesn't want to interfere in the free association of two individuals in a social, sexual, and religious sense.[201][202] Additionally, when asked if he was supportive of gay marriage Paul responded "I am supportive of all voluntary associations and people can call it whatever they want."
What a liar he is!
`Yes, but along the way you must respect the decision of democratic, republican governance.`
Well I`m not about to go out and arrest the Fed chairman.
Also, I completely support Paul`s stance on marriage.
"Also, I completely support Paul`s stance on marriage."
Then you are against liberty.
I love it. Ron Paul defines "liberty" and "Christian values" as one and the same, when they are obviously not.
"Then you are against liberty."
No, I am for liberty. I do not believe the state has a role in marriage.
"I love it. Ron Paul defines "liberty" and "Christian values" as one and the same, when they are obviously not."
How so
"No, I am for liberty. I do not believe the state has a role in marriage. "
Then the state need not define marriage in the first place.
"How so"
He said that the gay community's push to redefine marriage as woman-man, man-man, and woman-woman is an attack on liberty.
No, he said he doesn't believe the state needs to redefine marriage, period. He believes it should be left the churches. If you didn't take him out of context you'd understand thàt. There's nothing in your quotes of him that suggest any discriminatory feelings towards the gay community. He refers to individuals consistently.
"No, he said he doesn't believe the state needs to redefine marriage, period."
And he also didn't say the state needed to get rid of the definition.
Several times throughout the last election he said that the government has no place in marriage.
Then why isn't he campaigning for a repeal of marriage in the law?
