I knew there was a Washington Post writer in the audience at the Mises Institute‘s event on secession this past weekend in Houston, and I knew exactly why he was there: to write an article about the “extreme” Ron Paul, as a way of causing problems for Rand. Now that you know that, you’ll better understand the tone and content of my remarks, which were in large part directed right at him. In the resulting article, he didn’t quote me at all. No wonder.
