Bernie - the Socialist is free market?
The guy that wants to tax the wealthy 75% and basically shut Wall Street down?
That guy?
Ol Ronnie must be thinking about someone else or he's completely lost what little he had left.

Sounds like Paul was saying he's slightly more libertarian than the other candidates because of his anti-war stances and opposition to cronyism. Not that he's necessarily more free market.
The quote in the thread title looks like something the writer of the article threw in, not an actual quote from Paul.

Lol any libertarian that thinks less government is actually better is blind to what man does when deregulation occurs. FDA, Flint MI, 2008 housing, 2008 WORLD ECONOMY crash
Look, we elect these people to govern. Just keep elected officials honest and everyone wins. But putting decisions in the hands of corporate America is not the frickin answer because we are inherently selfish. It's human nature. Make elected officials do their job by keeping a microscope on them. Deregulation isn't the answer. Paying attention is!
Some of y'all don't understand what happens with no regulation. Henry Ford fired people on the assembly line for losing fingers. Suddenly workers compensation became a thing. At the time it was egregious! Now I think we can all agree while WC needs reform, it's also a flat out necessity.
