6/25/2009 Peter Schiff On The Glenn Beck Show: National Energy Tax Bill (Update: Passed By House)

[CensoredKnowledge]

Many people are understandably stressing over the chaos which has consumed their lives..We must keep in mind that crisis precipitate change, and while it seems the whole world is on fire, citizens around the world are becoming more informed of the true culprit of most the problems of their lives. Government. Specifically, US Government. They are realizing the two party system is a farce. There will be more social, political and financial changes to come, but this time, it will favor the people

[gasouthron]

There will come a point in this fight where some will remember what the founders of our once great nation did for us.... a few will find the Declaration of Independence and start thinking about the meaning behind the words of our founders....

Deo Vindice!

[NerdySheep]

America is going down

But please remember American citizens

it wasnt your fault

your were blinded by your stupid goverment, by what was happening

cause all they care about is being re-elected

And they shut out Peter Schiff, who could have saved you all.

Its tragic

cause I believe theirs good people in the USA

who sadly will pay the price, for their goverments selfish acts and stupidity

[jeremyraybrown]

@NerdySheep I'm scared about the future. Nobody realizes how dangerous times still are. I try to educate people but they are most clueless! They don't want to hear the truth. I guess I will just show them pictures of puppy dogs so everyone can be happy.

[BlueSkies360]

Peter Schiff 4 Senate Moneybomb TODAY

s c h i f f a t h o n . c o m

[TheSNEEXE]

The solution is strangley simple. If you tax the hell outta someone eventually they run out of money and they just stop payin. simple.

[clickswitchh]

Fox new is not a news channel its an right wing opinon channel

[tbocock]

dumbass

[stealthpakfa]

u americans are filthy rich, u spend nearly a trillion bucks on ur military, so this tax increase is nothing for u guys. how bout giving some of ur money to poor countries.

[DaveC86]

america is not rich, they're bankrupt. they borrow all their money and have no way to pay it back.

[captainkid1]

No one is asking them to pay it back.

A bigger problem is America has to keep "paying" in iou's for goods to not collapse. And that might end in the near future.

[milkmandan77]

americans are NOT filthy rich, we are flat broke, and IN DEBT trillions and trillions of dollars.

our high flying lifestyle that makes the rest of the world jealous has in fact been lived on the backs of the rest of the world, through the borrowing of money/selling of our bonds.

after obama is done wrecking what is left of the economy with his socialist plans and when the world decides to quit buying our bonds/loaning us money, we are doomed, and there will be chaos in america.

[MayeCreations]

milkmandan77: Unfortunately, I think we are already on our way to chaos in America. Most Americans, unfortunately, are not paying attention to what our politicians are doing, don't understand what they are doing or they just don't care because they are happy if their own, little world SEEMS safe and secure. Our economy has been suffering, jobs have been going overseas, there is already a problem. You are right - I think we already are in trouble as a nation. Peace

[Ilovedachau]

why should they? Humanism, Communism and current americanism are a disease . Let the third worlders die of their stupidity. Like that (black) African shithole, with their average IQ of 68, that's plain retarder (50-70 means retard).

White Americans must reborn, destroy the judaic influence and stop ALL foreign aid, especially to Israel.

[Xasew]

Whether you believe in global warming or not, you have got to believe that this is going to be one huge loophole fest for lobbyists.

[theduke79]

Lol haha common sense Guys, he said by 2035 the

electricity rate will go up 90%

gas will go up 58%

natural gas will go up by 55%

wait.. wait.. why will the energy bill going up by 1+k..?

Look by 2035.. almost all household will will be energy EFFECIENT. Almost all cars will be hybrid we might have an energy effecient gasoline, like ethanol! what do you want us to do? stay on foreign oil? use coal? man i wish i have a solar panel in my house to keep it warm or cold.. FREE electric bill.

[byron84]

If you wanted free electricity you would wish that Nikola Tesla hadn't been driven to his death.

[TheLiberalssuckdick]

The 8 so called "republicans" should be hanged in public as a warning to all future politicians.

I think that's what we need.

[Thetruthinall]

At 5.55 Mr Schiff says "They are not even looking at reality", i think he is quite right but maybe they are actually trying to "change" reality.

If people like me and you can see this government meddling is doing no good i highly suspect they also are aware.

I just don't see how these politicians and bankers ignore the hard truth when its the life they live and see, it shows you how easily it can be to separate agenda's and compartmentalize your tracks.

A shame... so much lying.

[wreagfe]

Obama: destroyer of worlds.

[drewd1987]

There's going to be a revolution.

[njcarlos1]

Unfortunately I won't be able to participate along with most of the *disarmed* population :( ... applied for a rifle permit and haven't heard back in over 7 months. They just stole my $100 in processing/license fees and do what they always do, ignore our rights.

[drewd1987]

What are you a convicted felon?

Move to florida brother. 15 minute FBI background check and out the door with an AK-47 :)

[clay180]

we have to blame ourselves really...we did put these political idiots into Congress...

[drewd1987]

we cant blame ourselves. These politicians are sociopathic con artists. And the rest of the people who can't see through their shit are just plain dumb.

[VAR1UM]

Glen is an idiot. He should go back to the bottle. He probably made more sense then, and funny occasionally.

The problem is, everyone who bitches about all these bills never read them. They watch the news and their corrupt rhetoric and mimic it...

i cant decide which is worst... His ranting or raving about things he obviously hasnt researched (he doesnt even know what "cap and trade" means for gods sake), or all the people that buy into it...

[joeslick65]

I can't believe that we are only 6 months into this nightmare! 1.21.2013 seems so far away.

[unsheepled]

Do not kid yourself...this was a designed failure to wipe out tyhe middle class.

It is so much easier to control sheeple when they have no pot to pee in... than if they own houses, cars , have jobs and do not require gubermint handouts.

America - the experiment in a republic has FAILED. we traded freedom for fritos and idiot tv...

infowars

[ziradith]

I hope the Obamanites are happy with this *change* we can believe in. <_<

[joeslick65]

Stop King Obama the III and his Energy tax. No taxation without representation. The bozos in Washington are selling out quick. They don't represent us anymore.

[chewbaca1989]

Are Americans going to sit around if this gets signed into law?

[Ilovedachau]

it did. haha, it seems that the USA is turning into a banana republic.

[mike6459]

American will be burning their own shit for fuel if it does and I'm sure they will find a way to tax that too

[Zeldovich]

The energy run-up last year led to the current recession? We've been in recession since Dec. 2007. The guy on the left has no idea what he's talking about. Glenn Beck so misrepresents the numbers that he may as well be lying, and schiff exaggerates the effect of this bill on the economy.

[chewbaca1989]

The bill is a scam.

[soliloqy]

Schiff is the only economist who predicted the economic collapse from 2004 on... He was laughed at, ridiculed and mocked... I think he has much more of the high ground that only Ron Paul can rival... Also, as they did accurately point out, taxing something does not decrease demand... If food prices double would you stop eating? No, you would cut back from something else... Same with addictive drugs, tobacco and alcohol...

[fortherichbytherich]

impeach them ALL!!!!!

[wisted]

Irreparable damage pending...

[Kwicherbichen]

They learned a lot from TARP and the Patriot Act. They can ram legislation through and sheeple don't even know it's happening because dancing with the Stars is on or some other BS show made to distract. Far more and far worse is coming folks.

[hume12345]

energy prices have to go up. simple. US pays the lowest cost for oil in the world. the real inflation of the dollar probably means the extra money being paid is to account for inflation and then not all of the inflation being created.

[gazoorap]

hi TLDMdotORG

thaks my lady

[gazoorap]

hi tldmdotorg

[gazoorap]

who?

[spikeslawson]

I guess we will all just heat our homes to 55F in the winter.

[judoyodan]

This may not be the best plan. but something has to be done. We only have one planet. It is just a matter of "how fast we want to use it up".

Economically this plan will be a disadvantage in the short run. But in the long run it will work to our advantage as we will begin to use more renewables and hopefully be selfsufficient when oil and coal become scarce.

[BanjoNaps]

no they'll just seize your "alternatives" for "government use". These are the same people that have been holding new technology down for the last 50 years. Their a pack of idiot thieves.

[solojam]

u got it!

[xhamlin]

This is the absolute worst time to try and satisfy some liberal fantasy. OUR ECONOMY IS TANKING. Like Peter said, if we could afford it that's one thing, then maybe you could throw the liberals a bone and say "go ahead and try it". But we can't afford it!! We need labor and capital operating as efficiently as possible right now. How clueless our leaders are to think that we can even attempt this nonsense. This 'never let a crisis go to waste' mentality is going to drive us into economic hell.

[rexoid]

Calls to stop this were 10 to 1 over supporters. Even if the Senate stops this.. get every slug pretending to be a representative in the house..regardless of party..out of office next elections. Find a good shop owner or school teacher with no party ties..anything to defeat this corruption.

[joeslick65]

Obama is such a used cars salesman. He says this 'Energy tax' will cost the average American the price of a postage stamp a day. This guy is full of bullshit. That doesn't include the increase in food, gasoline and everyday goods and services that you consume everyday if this energy tax gets passed. You think you are barely making it now just wait suckers.

[moparlez]

I am sorry that this hoax bill has been passed, I am from the UK and I know that our tinpot, expense grabbing, useless, in it for themselves government will be looking to introduce a phony tax like this themselves. Today they are already warning us on the state newschannel (BBC) that our energy bills are going to rise.

[michaeld5]

This bill passed in the House, but will die in the senate...don't worry folks.

[Saddlemomma]

We thought the Stimulus would fail too but it didn't. RHINOS will vote for this idiotic bill too.

[rtyree]

How can you call the stimulus anything other than a complete failure by any measurement? Unemployment continues to rise, prices on consumer goods are rising, and all the government can do is throw good money after bad into a giant bonfire and expect that to fix the problem.

[myway479]

Hey, we're using that stimulus money to employ people to save turtles, what more do you want? I know I will sleep better.

[rtyree]

Man, you are right! How could I have forgotten about the important work we are doing for the turtles! That changes my entire perspective on the issue LOL

[xhamlin]

the stimulus didn't fail?

[RonPaulR3VOLUTION]

Beck talking with DeMint about HR 1207

watch?v=MqhvRLVx9xs

Not defending Beck. Just posting it here for those who want to see it.

[MegaZeroSeven]

Hey Glen how about H.R. 1207 to audit that slimy corrupt and criminal Federal Reserve. Have you talked about that, ever? dickhead!

[beelz3333]

Yes. Yes he has, just the other day.

[narutofan1108]

He did with Angler Robinson & Jim DeMint a bit

[ChiefRocka01]

Hmm... Beck has devoted quite a bit of time on this. A simple search of beck 1207 shows plenty of vids. Glenn is a patriot.

[shoeman3434]

Call your senators ASAP! We can't let this pass!!

[helpendthefed]

1200 pages long and not 1 of them voting on it has even read it. Harry Reid says there's no time to let the American people OR congressman read it. It must be voted on now. RIDICULOUS!!!! What's wrong with these people? This Govt is completely corrupt and needs to be overthrown.

[shoeman3434]

EXACTLY!

[bbburton]

Next vote in Congress; regulating breathing to control and keep in check global warming. First people to regulate for hot air - Congress.

[ronheri]

Any Congressman who votes for this has to go!

[BlueTunisia]

A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine. - Thomas Jefferson

The US is a two-party dictarship. A roller coaster ride. Entertaining; exciting. You're falling for it.

Stop giving your freedom to government. Your children will thank you.

[bluzy25]

Man, this is crazy! sinking ship and they are putting more holes in it!

[Voy2378]

poor schiff. I know how it is when you can't believe how people are stupid...

[roseagain2]

Glenn Beck talks too much! He needs to just introduce his guests and shut up!

[osgangstarrr]

R.I.P MJ!!

[fatmoleman]

Michael Jackson? This is why there is virtually no hope for America.. People are more into the death of MJ than the death of their country.

[Carlitos1010]

MJ? he was just an entertainer... and TV is still showing ALL the details of his death.

American hipnotized by BULLSHIT.

[JP5466]

That's "Hypnotized"

[Carlitos1010]

Thank you "spell check".

[Carlitos1010]

We have nothing but fucking thieves in government.

[Aristotle100]

Government by its very nature IS theft...it shouldn't be surprising that government usually attracts people like that.

[Carlitos1010]

It really shouldn't be, but then I see someone like Dr. Ron Paul and I naively wish everyone in Washington was as principled.

[florgat91]

glenn beck is a drama queen - he does have good guests though..

it's all about peak oil - we're there and we'll soon realize how massive a problem it is - got collapse ?

[KARStarla]

You know... I'm beginning to believe It MUST BE true that this economic disaster is deliberate, no one in their right mind would pass this bill to further bankrupt its own nation and push it into a depression, or at least intensify the depression thats right around the corner

[jmjfanss]

This is a damn scam!

[rataMacue22]

So is the entire government.

[jmjfanss]

Got that right.

[Aristotle100]

DING DING DING! We have a winner! You are correct sir.

[rataMacue22]

Oh goodie! Did I win a free weekend stay at camp FEMA?

[Aristotle100]

YES! With complementary water boarding! For those times when you just want to kick back, relax and get that awesome sensation of drowning without having the hastle of actually doing it! And our guards will strip you naked and take emmbarresing pictures of you so you will always have something to remember your stay! AND IF YOU ACT NOW you can get na additonal 2 years for each night you stay! YOU'LL NEVER LEAVE errr WANT to leave I mean.

[mike6459]

buy gold and silver people

[dmger14]

We're in our third year of global COOLING. This is a scam, plain and simple! Al Gore had $2 million when he left office, now he has about $100 million from the SCAM.

What bothers me most is how the sheeple buy what the left is selling!

[totalfloat]

You are right MC666. In the streets is where we need to be. I dont think it will take too much longer though. This is outrageous.  Thanks for posting this Phil.

[MushroomCloud666]

90% raise? I'm surprised people aren't in streets yet.

[towelpharoe]

well glenn beck's a twit but this is gonna sink you guys... have fun eh!

[fizzlecheer]

From watching Peter's other vids lately, he's a bit disgruntled that he's seen scant air time over the past few months. You can tell, especially at the very end of this, that the look on his face shows he wasn't altogether expecting to talk about climate change.

[tinko1]

yea i notice too, since his laist freedom watch appearances, he seems pissed off

probably cause hes been really busy with his business D:

good luck peter hope that you'll overcome ur roadblock and run for senate

[FreedomIsSecurity]

wow. how do we profit from this? GOLD

[sugarpuddin88]

I swear this truly is the funniest thing I have ever read - Check it out:

The proposal -- frequently referred to as a cap-and-trade plan -- would establish an emissions trading system that would permit companies that emit fewer greenhouse gases than they are allowed to sell the excess portion to companies that exceed their allowances

[sugarpuddin88]

Imagine if, in 1966, then President Lyndon B. Johnson had tried to determine what the emissions levels of America should be 42 years into the future. Even if he had gotten together the best and brightest minds of the day, it is unlikely that his advisers would have come up with data that could have anticipated either our energy needs or our standard of living today

[hooverdog1957]

Please vote every idiot out of Congress and the Senate unless you want to continue to become a slave to the Federal Government. Wake the F up!

[informationauth]

AL -GORE SUCKS DICK.

[arcanekrusader]

Poodle dick

[pepsimannampepsi]

The Democrats....Sorry, THE SOCIALIST are going to destroy America. ho the hell is going to invest over here when taxes are sky high and the global warming nut jobs are saying the world is going to end if we dont do nothing about it.

[VirginiaTagz]

okay hes losing me... permanent recession??? WTH is that? How is that even logically possible?

[shizont]

It will be the new normal--we will function as an irreparably damaged economy, unable to return to robust health because of the heavy drain from government restrictions. Think of the Soviet Union.  T

[specialks1953]

When will Americans wake up & stop this BULLSHIT policy of tying to stop the myth of Man Made Global Warming.

Does anyone pay attention to the fact that other planets show signs of warming as well?

The SUN is far more influential in WARMING than any man made scenario.

Al Gore has made a mint off this crap. Why doesn't sientific proof do more to discredit his participation in the myth?

I guess it will be too late by the time Americans figure out we have been duped again by BULLSHIT!!

[jonojojojonojojo]

you are an idiot

[MooseOfReason]

"Hey, America, look over here!"

Beck's right. It's a classic magician trick. You pay attention to the 'wrong' thing, while the real trick is going on somewhere else.

[mreisma]

the paler glen beck gets, the more i don't trust him

[b1muas22]

good call...fag

[boots920]

A small pebble could do a better job of administering the US for the past 50 years.

They want the country to fail what other explanation is there.

[DertyK1979]

Out of control, the government is so corrupt.

[Olmanpimphand]

So Derty, this is how you spend your time? Talk about sad, really sad. So you are a glenn beck sheep hahaha!!! I watch him daily too, he is soooo entertaining. I'll keep an eye out for you and watch where your "Ideals" are coming from, watching you regurgitate Beck's beliefs haha!! Get your own word nephew haha!! Now i see where you are coming from, are you sticking up for dennis miller too? Hahaha!! What a life kiddo!

[dudebud007]

Yo . . .

[sailfished]

glen beck is a traitor

[davincij15]

You got that right! He lumps truthers with terrorists. He should stop and think why does he continue to call them truthers if he thinks it's a lie?

Even I knew in the back of my head when I was hating on truthers they where telling the truth I did not want to hear.
