Given that the Wall Street Journal reported that Paul's portfolio was worth between $2.44 million and $5.46 million — and that 64 percent of his assets were in these precious metal stocks — a very loose estimate is that Ron Paul has lost between $353,204 and $790,366 over the past six months, based on the average loss of his mining holdings.

If it is in resistance to the mandate good I approve this message, hopefully enough family members of those who supported the mandate die from lack of care, that attempting to mandate insurance purchase will never again be attempted.

Worth pointing out losses are from peak, not necessarily a loss from his initial investment.

I'm pretty sure you're trying to make a big deal just because its the GOP, and this is an NS forum, and you want attention.

It's just nice to see them accidentally tell us what we already suspected.

Ryan is going to score hard with the borderline sociopathic libertarian crowd, that's for sure!

Why did you misspell Paul? I presume it's by choice because the rest of the OP is spelled pretty much fine.
