Ron Paul's final speech in Congress, delivered on the eve of his November retirement from the House, was a libertarian call to arms. The American public has sunk into unconscionable complacency, he said, and allowed themselves to be entranced by material progress while their hard-won liberties were snatched away.
The unprecedented expansion of wealth and prosperity was an illusion built on debt, and it's come crashing down, he went on. "We have ended up with a system that doesn't produce enough even to finance the debt and no fundamental understanding of why a free society is crucial to reversing these trends."
Reclaiming liberty is possible, but it will take a groundswell of citizens who clamor for it. That, in turn, will take education, and not the kind that will be taught in public schools. To properly instill a love of liberty, children need to be home-schooled. And that brings us to the first major venture of Paul's career post-Congress: The Ron Paul Curriculum.
As you've probably already guessed, The Ron Paul Curriculum deviates somewhat from the textbook-and-worksheet model.
