ParticipantI am no expert on Congressional testimonial sessions, but I don’t think it lends itself to a debate-style exchange of ideas. Committee members make their remarks, Mr. Bernanke gets to speak X minutes, the committee members give their responses/questions (all timed), and those testifying answer. Very structured, very formal. Ron Paul knows that everything said at these meetings is a matter of public record and he is trying to prove a point – our current fiat monetary system is failing, and will only get worse. We can’t expect to constantly print money on a whim and not suffer the effects of inflation and debasement of the dollar.

ParticipantTurn your hope for change into action and join a local Ron Paul meetup group (if you like his views). Here are just a couple of local meetup groups:
San Diego
http://ronpaul.meetup.com/93/Carlsbad/North County
http://ronpaul.meetup.com/1683/Remember, if you want to vote for Ron Paul in the February 5th primary, YOU MUST BE REGISTERED AS A REPUBLICAN…not Democrat, not Independent, not even if you “declined to state” your party affiliation on your registration application. These are not our rules, but rather the rules of the GOP – which I personally think were put in place to limit the number of non-Republican votes Ron Paul gets, but that is a story for another day.
The deadline to register or re-register in California (e.g., if you’ve moved or changed parties) is January 22, 2008.
Don’t take my word for it:

ParticipantI am sorry to hear about your situation. I have a good friend that is going through the same thing. Divorce sucks. Anyways, I think you both should come to some sort of compromise. Expecting him to pay support on an assumed salary of $155k is unrealistic. You don’t need a mortgage expert to understand the market isn’t what it was back in 2003. At the same time, he should sac-up and help you raise the child(ren) you both had together.
Educating yourself was a good move. You might consider increasing your attempts at building a strong network in your area. Try to befriend moms or dads in a similar situation. They might be able to help you through this transition phase while you get established in your new career (e.g., find a good, inexpensive day care). I wish you the best of luck.
