The largest donor to a SuperPAC supporting Ron Paul is Peter Thiel, the sort of ultra-wealthy, super-national figure Paul and his supporters love to hate.

Thiel — who gave $900,000 to the pro-Paul group Endorse Liberty — made his fortune as the co-founder of PayPal; he was also an early investor in Facebook, and is now a major player in the world of high-tech venture capital. He’s also a devoted libertarian and devoted Republican: He hosted a fundraiser for the confrontational gay conservative group GOProud at his grand apartment off Union Square in 2010.

Thiel is also a member of the steering committee of the Bilderberg Group, the elite, invitation-only conference that’s the frequent subject of conspiracy theories.

“They probably get together and talk about how they’re going to control the banking systems of the world and natural resources,” Paul said in 2008.

Thiel shares, though, Paul’s anti-government, and anti-Establishment, impulses. He has funded a prize to encourage talented students to drop out of college, and is a major supporter of the cause of “Seasteading,” creating independent, water-borne cities free of national law.

      what do ron paul and alex jones have in common? they own lots of gold and land. they both promote government declaring gold as legal tender (which is intervention in the free market) to increase the value of their gold holdings. they also promote the end of taxation on land. alex jones promoted debra medina who wanted to end property taxation in texas. debra medina’s tax plan was written by neocon economist, dr. arthur laffer, famous for the laffer curve, the basis for trickle-down economics and supply-side economics. it should also be noted that ludwig von mises and the austrian school of economics was funded by the rockefeller foundation, the same people who funded the united nations, the world bank, and imf. the same people who also setup the federal reserve. alex jones and ron paul seem to know the endgame for global enslavement well, so much so that they are heavily invested into it. the thing that they fail to mention is that they plan to enslave the people with a return to king george’s feudalism and world gold standard, the same one we had after the federal reserve was created and which caused the great depression and the same one which caused the collapse of the roman empire.  rome was built on cheap money, bronze and copper coins and fell when it went onto a gold standard. those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it. it should be noted that the bible and the founding fathers all supported taxation of land. the bible was also against usury-based money supply. ron paul and alex jones are the benedict arnolds. good work on finding out that peter thiel was a bilderberger and his largest contributor.

      Alex Jones and Ron Paul are busted… “Lewis Lehrman and Ron Paul wrote The Case for Gold. Lewis Lehrman is a PNAC board member and also wrote Money and the Coming World Order: The Creation of International Monetary Order.” http://libertyrevival.wordpress.com/2012/02/11/ron-paul-freedom-is-slavery/
