LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - "I would like to start off by talking about the subject and the subject is secession and, uh, nullification, the breaking up of government, and the good news is it's gonna happen," Paul told a gathering at the libertarian Mises Institute. "It's happening."
Paul, father to current potential Republican presidential candidate, Rand Paul, has claimed the secession would not be legislated by congress, but "would be de facto."

"And it's not gonna be because there will be enough people in the U.S. Congress to legislate it. It won't happen. It will be de facto. You know, you'll have a gold standard when the paper standard fails, and we're getting awfully close to that," Paul continued. "And people will have to resort to taking care of themselves. So when conditions break down, you know, there's gonna be an alternative. And I think that's what we're witnessing."
He predicts the Federal Reserve will end and the state will simply stop listening to federal laws they don't agree with.

"The Fed is gonna end. There is going to be a de facto secession movement going on. The states are going to refuse to listen to some of the laws," explained Paul. "We've seen tremendous success already with states saying to the federal government, 'We're not gonna listen to you anymore about the drug laws.'"
"And they're getting out of it, and I think the American people are waking up to that, and as far as I'm concerned, the more the merrier."
