Ron Paul on Health Care and Foreign Policy

In the clip below Ron Paul points out the fact that we already have a health care system that is 60% government. The current debate is over what that percentage will rise to. We are not going to get pure socialized medicine (...yet), but the people will have more of their property stolen under the expansion of violent** health care. It's worth noting that the American people smell a rat in this health care bill. Steve Watson reports on a recent poll gauging Americans' views on government health care:
In a key question, the survey also asked if an increased government role in the health care system would “lead to more corruption? Less corruption? Or will it make no difference?”

A vast majority of 62% said it would be the cause of “more corruption”, only 14% said “less corruption”, with 21% believing it would “make no difference.”
Most of the clip below is Ron Paul talking about foreign policy extensively including the killing of innocent civilians in Yemen. Give it a listen:

**Government is violence. It operates on the principle of coercive force. See this excerpt from Chapter 3 of The Way, the Truth and the Sword, entitled, "Is there such thing as a Christian government?"
