  • World Equality !

  • my birthday lol

  • @AFlyyGuy my birthday too lol

  • show this clip to any intellegent person who myt beable to grasp wat is going on... as for simpletons.... dont bother.....

  • Use anastasia when you start your search  ****** gettop5.info ****

  • Come baby Asian ladies #lushfmlk.info#

  • It's the Jews in the Federal Reserve, on Wall Street and in our government that have caused this disaster, and they are the ones who planned it, they are the ones who will get even richer from it. The American people need to wake up to the fact that the majority of the Jews in this country and Israel, are not our friends. They are not working to strengthen America, they are traitors working to make Israel strong enough to deal with anyone, including America. Nothing but TRAITORS!

  • Bernanke needs to drill his public voice- he has some intonations a reverberation in his voice- when he speaks I hear TERROR. The powers will probably change him out soon. Expect the next Fed Spokesman/chairman to have a voice more like Morgan Freedman or Darth Vader guy. In a depression the economic resume is not as important as the intonations.

  • What ron paul says today-- Obama will eventually say (or McCain, Bush the rest of them).

  • all presidents should have to be economists

  • Ron Paul is are real President.

  • Remember, " Oil is not an economic Indicator", GREENSPAN.

  • Love it. Nice and relaxed I wish he was in his 40's it's to bad.

  • Ron Paul's patriotism makes my heart swell with pride

  • I mean they are scum . Godless cowardly selfish egoistic scum

    why you vote for cowards America ??? !!!

  • Pauls makes many good points with pointed questions. The one that sticks in my mind is how unrewarding banksters have made savings accounts and CD's. They want our money out there in the markets so they can manipulate our money and make money for themselves, not in a safe savings account. Anyone who listens to this and still want to blame Bush and give Obama a pass is drinking the Kool Aid. It has been a mess since we sent our manufacturing base overseas That policy spans many administrations.

  • Why does Bernanky respond to kids?

  • Paulitical Pwnage.

  • The only thing that saved Bernanke was the gavel.

  • Bernanke GTFO!

  • Tell it like it is! Stop the bandaid and FIX it! (OH wait, its gone to far, we can't can we?)

  • @RichTheRidgeHunter That ship set sail 2-3 years ago in my opinion.

  • i admire his courage and wish that he was our president. I never thought I'd say that. Ron Paul backs up everything with facts, reason and history explaining why.

  • LOL "RON PAUL HE HAS BALLS!!!"

  • I would start with goverment workers pay cut in Half across the board. No exceptions. Foreign aid Cut in half. I would start with a base like that. Then I would start at other goverment programs. Tax cuts to Citizens with the savings.

  • He's right about the gov't wasting $. I would start the cuts in arts funding, foreign aid, and especially the war.

  • @all028 and Social Security. Social Security is a Ponzi scheme and has failed miserably. Allow opt outs.

  • @mongoose704: It's obvious the govt cannot control its spending (and I'm not just talking about Obama. Past administrations are equally as guilty as well). Sadly, a civil war may be needed in order to stop this madness....

  • @pdynamics1

    You are correct. No party stands on any higher ground when it comes to spending.

    I don't know what it will take to get Americans to realize that the quest for the utopian welfare-warfare state will be catastrophic to our nation and its people. Perhaps it will take that very catastrophe.

  • @mongoose704: You would think people would look at what is going on in Greece as an example. The days of the welfare state are over

    What will it take to wake up? I don't know. Sadly, a catasrophe like bankruptcy or a civil war might be it

  • @pdynamics1 Yes! The party is over and the market will overwhelm government pressure. The market wants us to stop debt financed consumption and instead wants us to produce and save. We will humble ourselves to that reality or we will be humiliatingly forced to accept it. Either way the party is OVER! Communists in America will fight it to the very end. They will continue to cling to the utopian free ride promise of welfare until catastrophe wakes us up to the dreadful hangover.

  • @mongoose704: Do a search on Milton Friedman - Free lunch myth.

  • @all028 Actually that concept predates Friedman. "There are no free lunches" dates back to Adam Smith talking about opportunity cost in economics and hence profit is zero in a classical free market model.

  • @mongoose704: Oh, absolutely....Milton just points out a few things (if you've watched the video)

  • @mongoose704 I have paid into that crap for 16 years, and I want my money back!

  • @Jguthro

    Me too. Hell, at least let me stop paying into that Ponzi scheme.

  • RonPaul 2012 for a free America the revolution is underway!

  • 388 likes to 3 dislikes. That's the highest ratio I've ever seen.

  • RON PAUL ROCKS!!!!! THE TRUTH....I LOVE MY COUNTRY BUT I FEAR MY GOVERNMENT

  • Ben Bernake, face of the Central Bank (FED), thinks we need Central Banks and not a gold standard. Go figure!

    Ron Paul - you are my hero!

  • Ron Paul is amazing!

  • Ron Paul is not a fake. He just can't say anything till he is elected, then he will let everyone know 911 was covered up by govt. and the entire govt has committed treason. Everything will be better when Paul gets elected to President. He is going to rid us off the IRS and the Fed. We will be free, I can't wait.

  • Bernanke is a whipped dog who cowers at the heels of his globalist masters. Ron Paul is America's knight in shining armor. Ron Paul is my president.

  • Saved by the bell Bernanke you skunk.

  • WHY are there so many empty chairs in this room?

  • @xXxExtremeDays3xXx

    be cause your congressmen only showing up for work to collect paycheck increase benefits and salaries for themselves and vote for tax increases pension fund confiscation and SS reduction and retirement age increases

  • @xXxExtremeDays3xXx , OUR COUNTRY DOESN'T INTEREST THEM.

  • @VMATT500C

    Exactly...

  • @xXxExtremeDays3xXx ill pay to get a seating

  • In 8 minutes Ron Paul has more intelligent to say than Obama has in 2 years. The citizens of this country who continue to vote without a brain should be held responsible.

  • imagine if we elected him....

  • @wabri20 we could have been back to the gold standard

  • @SamuraiCommando regardless of who the people vote for the outcome will be the same, after all the special interest's vote is more important, they are the ones with the millions of dollars of our money in their pockets, they run the show not us

    thats why obama and mccain were our only choice in the elections. because RP doesn't meet the needs of the special interest groups.

    for us to get a voice we need to revolt

  • @SamuraiCommando but remember... Republicans were calling him a wacko and fringe, also saying he was "too liberal" and who was the best choice for the right in 2008??? McCain-Palin??? smh...

  • @SamuraiCommando Your statement has no substance, and is illogical.

    1.) "more intelligent (what) to say

    2.) Ron Paul has great intentions, but is not a strong orator

    3.) Obama is a notoriously strong orator

    4.) In light the above mentioned things, 21 like-minded people thought your post was great...this is clearly not a forum of the educated

  • @2048scotty what more substance do you need than the stating of 2 years. it's impossible to say what ALL he's done in 2 years, so don't go cry about there not being substance when it's implied that the reader should do his own research if he doesn't get the picture already...

  • @SamuraiCommando no offense, but since you said "vote" you still must not understand that the president is picked to be a puppet. not actually to make any rules. ron paul knows this, thats why hes not running. he wouldnt have any more power than he has right now

  • Wow the end of this is amazing. Ron Paul goes hard!

    Now we know Bernanke is going down with his ship. He signaled that he's down with Keynesianism for life with his little quote from his god. If things get much worse, everybody's gonna wanna throw the idiot and all his retarded cronies out on their ass when we ABOLISH THE FED!

  • So fitting that Bernanke quoted Keynes like that...

  • Ron Paul is the best we have in Washington. Vote for Peter Schiff and Rand Paul! Bernanke has such a smug cockey-ass face. He works for the banksters not for the people!!!!

  • Ron Paul is a sick man who wants the Rich in power with NO regulations

  • @toknow07 That seems to be an inappropriate statement. At around 5:40 he talks about the value of deflation and how that would benefit the poor and under privileged. Of course the rich would get richer with deflation, but so would the poor. With inflation, the rich still get richer, and the poor still get more poor.

  • @toknow07

    Oh, so the rich aren't in power right now? lol...how useful are all these regulations when they're written by the corporations, for the corporations to unfairly crush their competition?

    How useful are all the regulations when Obama and Clinton are going to Bilderberg Group meetings?!

  • @ChrisKillz503 Ron Paul wants to eliminate income tax.

    Tax gives rich money to poor.

    Ron Paul hates minorities and hates poor.

    According to Ron Paul the poor need to pay for their own actions

  • This man is the only one trying to help and protect We The People.

    Good Luck Ron, you would be the best President!

  • Dr. Paul is the truth, this man should be president!!

    George Carlin was right when he said the American people like their BS right up front where they can get a good wiff of it...

  • in Ron Paul we trust ! here is THE man that should , nay , MUST be put in the presidential seat .

  • I pray for all of you to be quadrillionaires in quadrillion power some day

  • People the next evolution in America will come with giving the states the real power. If the people in Mass. wants gay marriage. They get it!. If Cal wants state run health care they get it! etc. However there is a uncompromising rule that if your state is bankrupt then you tax your communities to get you out of it. There will be no source of funds for "Oops my bad". We don't need the Federal DOE, the EPA. rebuke and leave the UN. De fund the world bank. Dramatically reduce foreign aid. etc.

  • WTF; Bernanke is quoting Keynes? Keynesian economics is pure bull shit; it doesn't work in a free market system! That must be why the current corrupt régime is attempting to end the free markets.

  • Does the Fed not understand this country is 13 trillion dollars in debt? That's the total, and some say its higher!! We borrow 40 cents for every dollar we spend!! Dear God, we are screwed.

  • Gotta love that last series of questions in this clip! Ron basically called Bernanke insane by Einstein's definition of insanity. "Doing the same thing over and over and expecting to get a different result, is the definition of insanity"-- Einstein (paraphrased)

  • @dlucas90 Love it!! Ron owns this douche again!

  • $435,000 each, lol, for every man, woman and child in America. Think about that for a second. $3.7 trillion. The Fed can kiss my ass.

  • @Writinit

    That wasn't every person in the US, that was every person who lost a job. 8.5 million jobs lost and if you just gave each person the stimulus cash, that's how much you'd give each one of them. An excellent point, just a complete waste of money that our children and grandchildren will revolt over...

  • Ron Paul is the only politician you can trust.

  • Ron Paul owning Bernanke AGAIN...

  • Comment removed

  • Ron Paul is a Hero and for many people in the world the proof that the US is not all dominated by Wallstreet and not all corrupt. For me the only credible politician in the US, I love to hear him speak and tell the truth.

    THANK YOU RON PAUL FOR YOUR FIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE AND THE WOLRD

  • FUCKING ILLUMINATI FED

  • ...the rich are now Ultra-Rich...

    ...and...

    ...the Late Great Middle Class...

    ...is sleeping under a freeway overpass...

  • We need a free market that reflect the real cost of our high energy use lifestyle.

  • I'd like to know why Dr Paul speaks on a gold standard but not bimetallism. After all this was the original constitutional settlement in the US & with good reason: silver was payment for transactions of lower denomination, gold for higher. Indeed it might be argued that gold is a usurper of silver, as the white metal has a much longer monetary provenance & was always the money of choice of & for the people, as opposed to gold, the choice of the aristocratic & powerful.

  • @westwaytv I think he uses the gold standard as simply an example. I've heard him speak of "competitive currencies" which is probably the most free market approach to the whole system of "money". That being said he has also repeatedly called for a return to the original standard outlined by the constitution(bimetal)....I just think he refers to the "gold standard" because it's what everyone is aware of to some degree while a reference to "bimetallism" might be confusing.

  • IN A NUT SHELL THE RICH GREEDY ELITE HAVE LEECHED TOO MUCH MONEY OF THE MASS'S OF WORKING CLASS.

  • I do not like this Uncle Sam, I do not like his health care scam. I do not like these dirty crooks, or how they lie and cook the books. I do not like when Congress steals, I do not like their secret deals. I do not like this speaker, Nan , I do not like this 'YES WE CAN'. I do not like this spending spree, I'm smart, I know that nothing's free, I do not like your smug replies, when I complain about your lies. I do not like this kind of hope. I do not like it. nope, nope, nope!
  • When will Congress understand that loose monetary policy, Fannie-Freddie, and their never-ending efforts to expand home ownership caused the crisis. Now they are further expanding government guarantees behind financial risk-taking with this new expanded Government reform bill. Why is Congress eliminating whatever market discipline might have been left in the banking industry? And why is Congress not concentrating on unemployment? Answer special interest and power grabbing politics.

  • Ron Paul need to endore Peter Schiff run for senate in CT !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • "as keynes said"... LOL!

  • Ron Paul is the real life superman and we don't let him use any of his powers.

  • Ben Bernanke only cares about the elite and the central bank NOT the American people, this is more than obvious 17% of 336 million Americans unemployed is 57,120,000 unemployed. Civil unrest is right around the corner.

    The letter of God (the bible) speaks of this as America falls in Revelations 18.

    Every religion recognizes we are in the last days. It is time to put Jesus Christ first in our lives and put all faith in him. not these evil servants of the Devil.

  • @kobedarott Agreed, except you are seriously incorrect on the ~57 million unemployed number. Not all Americans are old enough to work or still of working age. The actual number of Available Workers is ~110.7 Million which gives you ~18.8 million unemployed which is in the neighborhood of what Ron was talking about. :)

  • @cresidue

    The unemployment rate is incorrect according to their standards, you have to take in the reality that 50% of the self employed contractors of this country are out of work. They cant get unemployment do to being self employed. You also have to realize how many millions just lost their job recently from the gulf oil spill. Not just those with boats but those in restaurants, hotels, etc. everyone is avoiding the coast. They just don't report it in the news.

  • @kobedarott No, there are ~310 million US Citizens, ~110 million are of working age & are on the Treasury Dept. Tax Rolls, so 17% of available workers being unemployed is ~18.8 million. Regardless, we are arguing about a very bad situation that is only going to get worse while the so-called elitists in Washington are living the high life on our broken backs... (ref: usdebtclock)

  • America needs leaders who will put America first, second, and third.

    No government can serve two masters, and a government that serves Israel cannot serve the American people

  • At about 1:41 to 1:55 into this clip, the ref should have just called the fight. It becomes a brutal beating, like watching a prize fighter kick a kitten. Ron Paul with the Bernanke TKO... again.

  • @poetrychurch I beg to differ. Bernanke just rammed his man meat into Ron Paul's innocent, quivering backdoor and left a huge, sticky wad of fructose/spermatozoa infusion up there. Ron Paul will never have his way.

  • @WingsofDedalus WOW another name caller who is totally clueless on the issue.

  • Share this as much as you can. Tell two friends about Ron Paul, you can change the world.

  • @markislive masonssss man... they own him

  • Federal reserve pumping foreign economies destroying our own they have been siphoning money abroad we do not have money here , we have debt

    they shall be immediately audited 

  • @VivaMydick good comment, to paraphrase Henry David Thoreau "there are many striking at the branches of evil, while few are striking at the roots."

  • $400,000 per unemployed individual just about says it all, what a complete failure... unless you work for GS

  • The always honest, the always true...the best man for president in 2012!! Ron Paul!!

  • Wow, how many times has Ron Paul owned Bernanke and Greenspan?

  • Its amazing bernanke refuses to assess the facts

  • This vid aint workin for me :S

  • Very, very telling how the only "economist" that Bernanke quotes is ol' Supply Side Keynes

  • I love Ron Paul! I wish he would endorse Peter Schiff!

  • Great video! At what point do we trust the creators of wealth to also be the creators of jobs.

  • Ben just got bitch slapped

  • I love Bernanke's face at 8:25. He looks so *pissed*!

  • This man is one of the MAJOR reasons we as a civilization HAVEN'T fallen yet. Thank you Mr.Ron Paul, TEAR BERNANKE a new hole and shove it where the sun don't shine! Another step to one world government .. I WANT TO KNOW WHERE MY MONEY HAS GONE!!! GET ANGRY PEOPLE!

  • Sure makes life interesting. The elites know that financial turmoil creates many news worthy headlines; and its great for them since they control the media and they can cover the news.

  • OH MY GOD..I thank you cherman Fernanki!?! What the ? If you go to cour of law and there is a Murderer who has killed many people. DOES ANYONE say to the Murderer I thank you MR murderer ? They are Spraying people everyday, they have Destroyed our FOOD supply if people dont wake up in time? they are destroying Water Resources.... and Mr Herro thank's Bernarki?!?

  • State Fair Tax, State Veto Power, 10% Federal Tax Cap and State Centralized Banks like the Bank of North Dakota. This is the answer.

  • Dr. Bernanke own words via Washington Times, I don't understand Gold. Boy we are in deep dodo...

  • the Bernanke and Obama plan: We're gonna need more shovels.

  • We could fix the econemy if the tied up bernenke and charged 1 cent per slap. I'll bet we have the whole debt paid for in a week lmao

  • Bernanke is an arrogant asshole.

  • My how Barney Frank loves to bang that gavel and say "the gentleman's time has expired" when his Federal Reserve friends have the heat cranked up on them.

  • Harry Truman: "If you have a job it's a recession, if your out of work it's a depression."

  • For Ron, grilling Ben is like shooting fish in a barrel... love it Go Ron Go.. keep speaking the truth

  • Get em Ron!  God I hope he runs again.

  • This video is all scrambled and wont play properly for me, anyone else having this problem?

  • Atta boy, Ron. All that is good in America is personified in you.

  • Bernanke, you can suck it, you traitorous little bitch.

  • Ron Paul for President in 2012

    Stop letting these stooges run the country into the ground and vote for Dr. Paul when 2012 rolls around.

  • Ha ha ha Ben says that gold standard did not work, but admits that in 19th century there was high productivity. So I guess it did work :)

    Central bank oriented system = aka toilet paper standard.

    Ron Paul Rules !!!!

  • god i LOATHE uncle "Ben" and "Barney" the pink dinosaur.

    whether i'll take a shot at pursuing happiness in the US or elsewhere lies with ron paul.

  • Like Kenyes said - Bernake is a tool!

  • BERNANKE DECODED - When my friends & I have looted the last productive American via inflation, taxes and regulation I will reconsider my position. Now Ron, QUIT BUGGING ME!

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Convenient for Bernanke that Ron Paul's time ended right after the question.

  • Any person who Quotes Keynes is a mad man.

  • Personally I think the vast majority of people who post on this thread are the type of brainwashed Ron Paul Acolytes with the "end the fed" mantra. First of all, Ben Bernanke didn't even hardly get a chance to respond to Ron Paul.

    I think that part of the reason we are in the trouble that we are is because Greenspan screwed up and our government screwed up fiscally.

  • @mormril

    The system is systematically flawed.

    The system of endlessly inflating and credit creation doesn't make sense.

    So thats why we see the Federal Reserve and the current system of banks as evil. As our money is constantly being devalued.

  • @KurzLuppii lol, I won't disagree with you overmuch there. I do think the system is screwed up. I don't see that ending the Federal Reserve is going to help us out of this mess, though. One could very well argue that things could be even more screwed up than they were if Ron Paul had his way.

  • @mormril

    Ending the Fed or at least taking away their ability to set interest rates, create credit for the government, is a good step in solving the constant booms and depressions we are having. Longer term stable growth is much more productive than a system that needs to vent out the bad debt every 10 years.

    I don't think he'll take it that far when it comes to monetary policy.

    We still need paper median of exchange. Though I am becoming more of fan of population based money supply.

  • @KurzLuppii Population Based Money Suply ... you say.....hmmm, this sounds VERY GOOD - > keeps in touch with growth of economy and acts as a median for exchange (and thats IT) this would be GREAT !!! -> at the end of the day the real "backing" of any curency is in fact the labour component - man hours, so i dont think that gold standard is final solution, population based or some system that governs the VOLUME of currency would be far better

  • @mormril This was a session in each Congressman had only 5 minutes to make a statement and ask questions of Bernanke. this video was just a snippet of the session. News sources choose highlights, but the entire session is available for viewing.

    Ron Paul would be among the first to agree with you that Greenspan screwed up. But Bernanke is following the very same policies. That is exactly the point Paul makes. How much worse must it get before Bernanke questions the policies that ruined us.

  • What has Bernanke successfully predicted?

  • @mormril Do you really think it's not a giant Berne Madoff racket?

  • @lushfauna Well, at this point I have a sneaking suspicion that it is a deck of cards and that the fed is probably seriously messed up internally if not nearly insolvent. However, ignorance is bliss and what I don't know for sure doesn't matter (I hope). We can all speculate on this all we want but unless it is proven then we still have a system. Provided they don't audit the fed naturally.

  • @mormril That's what we want to do, expose and replace.

    Things will be so far down the drain in a few years you'll be a believer. I track this stuff more than most

  • @mormril you're the brainwashed one. The fed reserve is the most evil entity in america. If you dont see that, you really need an education. And Ron was the only person speaking out against Greenspan. . Just search some Rulon Pa greenspan vids.

  • @2012Ronpaul2012 No offense, but your very name on this forum screams out the fact that I am at least partially right about you anyway. Ron Paul is perhaps justified in pointing out the fact that this government is incompetent. But his suggestion to go back to a gold standard is not going to help us out of our current mess in my opinion. As for getting an education, I presume you mean getting an education in Austrian economics. I read Ron Paul's book "end the fed". he's an extremist.

  • @mormril, If you read his book you would know Ron Paul suggest many means to end our economic woes. The first would be to bring back our troops and what the heck are we doing in so many countries where we aren't fighting a war? Going back to the gold standard would expose where our dollar stands in relation gold. Maybe if people knew our money was worth so little they'd be less inclined to spend...oh wait, the people don't want to spend, Obama does.

  • @mirsaes Stop blaming Obama. The problem that America faces is that its entire population are chickensh**s who won't forcefully advocate for these changes.

  • @WingsofDedalus, what the h*** do you think the Tea party is doing? And instead of joining in on the fight democrats and this administration plant racists during demonstrations to discredit the effort. Perhaps you alone are the chickens***!

  • I think that when the chairman of the central bank says "I think we still need a central bank", everyone should raise an eyebrow.

  • Why did he say interest rates of bonds are above inflation? If you modify the definition of inflation they are... but they've increased the monetary supply by far more than the rates on bonds. It's just a printing press scam.

  • Ron Paul looks like he's going to die around 7:33...

    Wait for the cough and then.... yep, I think he threw up a little during the camera change.

  • Comment removed

  • Ron Paul, the only man in politics actually looking out for the poor.

  • Ben is such an amoral crook, he didn't answer any of the questions and clearly only has the rich central banksters best interests in mind. We need to get rid of the Federal Reserve. The economy will be much worst in two years. Move your money out of the Big Banks and prepare for a collapse of the dollar. When these idiots finally change course, it'll be too late.
