If you do not have money to save, you do not have money to burn.
Saving vs. spending and the health of the economy was the topic of my conversation with @sethsimonds today.
I punctuating this pondering by watching Ron Paul at today’s Financial Services Hearing, where he essentially accuses Goldman Sachs of fraud. (Remember my pre-election / bailout post at Nolan Chart, Bad Assets and Band Aids?) :
Just finished reading Paul’s book, “End the Fed”. A review is on my to-do list!
One of the things I miss about living in the US is helping with the nitty-gritty of grassroots politics. Being a precinct leader for Paul’s 2008 campaign and then attending his rally in Philadelphia with my husband, our children, and over 5,000 other supporters, is one of my fondest memories.

I need to read his book…my friend and I were just talking about this!
BTW, Ron Paul delivered me (my friend always wanted me to bring a sign to his rallies that said that, lol!).
