Senator Rand Paul – Filling the Void

Rand

 

I realize that this site is “Prepper Recon” and not “Politics Recon”, but politics will be among the greatest contributors of the coming collapse. I see no hope of avoiding the eventual meltdown, but there are always opportunities to mitigate the effects. Here in Florida, when we get a Hurricane warning, we know there is nothing we can do to prevent the coming storm, but there is much to be done in preparing to weather the elements.

Perhaps the biggest threat of all is the threat of losing our freedom. When the crisis comes, the Liberals and the Neo-Conservatives will use the crisis as an excuse to eliminate our remaining freedoms. There has never been a time in history that our Constitution has been in such a volatile position because of the people we have allowed to be in power.

We need statesmen that will champion the cause of freedom. We need leaders that can be the voice of our founding principles when the mainstream political agenda from both sides of the aisle tries to drown that voice out. For decades, we have had Congressman Ron Paul to keep that spark of freedom and independence alive. He has now retired from Washington and left a gaping whole in our capitol. His son Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky has stepped up to the plate and is now carrying the torch of freedom.

In this interview with Peter Schiff, Senator Rand Paul speaks about his battle against not only the liberals, but also against the Neo-Con Republicans. The Neo-Conservatives have hijacked the Republican Party and taken it far from what it was when the Jeffersonians were first called Republicans. It had traditionally represented small government, individual liberty and a non-interventionist stance on foreign policy. We have lost those values but that doesn’t necessarily mean we need a new party. We need to fight  to take our party back.

Senator Rand Paul on Freedom

Senator Paul talks about urgency to fight for freedom. He talks about the document that came out of the Bureau of Justice that described potential domestic terrorist as anyone who had more that 7 days worth of stored food, anyone with weatherized ammunition and people who like to pay in cash. Does any of that sound familiar? If hits close to home, it is time to start paying attention to politics. Don’t think prepping and politics aren’t closely intertwined.

Stand up, speak out and keep prepping!
