  • Ron Paul. They understand everything. But all they do this because for the benefit of their backers . There are still few who cares for common people

  • If there were competing currencies, I would definitely dump dollars in favor of commodity-backed money. I don't like the hands of the banks in my till. I want to have pure transactions where money is only a medium and it goes from one person to another directly.

  • GREAT VIDEO! Thanks for sharing!

    Happy Trading!

  • Senator Gregg's only objective was to smear Ron Paul, rather than discuss the actual bill.

  • Senator Gregg needs to re-read Congressman Paul's book again. Ron Paul never calls for the restoration of gold standard.

  • Quick Wiki Quote:

    "In the Senate Gregg was the leading Republican negotiator and author of the TARP program, which bailed out financial institutions, while he had a multi-million dollar investment in the Bank of America."

    Could this be why Gregg is so defensive???

    New Hampshire deserves better!

  • GREGG BOUGHT AND PAID FOR

    F'N SLIME!!!

  • Joe and Carl should have their union cards pulled.

  • Article 1 Section 8: Congress shall have the power to coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures.

    Article 1 Section 10: No State shall coin money; emit Bills of Credit; make any thing but gold and silver coin a Tender in Payments of Debts.

    And that man swore an oath to uphold the Constitution. These articles have never been amended. FIRE HIM!!!!! He can not be trusted.

  • Gregg is owned by his banksters masters. Independent Fed? Give me a break. The Fed has never been independent. It has been currying favors to special interests at the expense of American tax payers all along. Crooks like this really disgust me.

  • Any politician who supports the Federal Reserve is in fact in violation of their oath to protect the constitution. It is not debatable that the FR is unconstitutional. Somehow we really need to start removing these violators from office. It's a sad day that to violate your oath in public has become an acceptable thing to do. No accountability amongst thieves and tyrants.

  • Sn. Gregg is clearly Hamiltonian. How can we accept a Hamiltonian solution to a Hamiltonian problem/bubble? It's because we've forgotten liberty. Th. Jefferson said, "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a moneyed aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs." Long live Jeffersonians like R. Paul!

  • Sn. Gregg ends with "egg"...he sure laid one here

  • Gregg wants to complete a sentence but cut Dr Paul off several times. He's acting like a jerk and a moron. Voted out of office you go!

  • Judd Gregg - corrupted republican shill for big banks/big corp

    smirking douchebag

    "In the Senate Gregg was the leading Republican negotiator and author of the TARP program, which bailed out financial institutions, while he had a multi-million dollar investment in the Bank of America"

  • Gregg is a moron

  • @the3AMgenius

    He's not a moron. He understands very well how the criminal mechanism of the Fed and Wall Street works. That's why he's working so hard for his bankster masters to distort the truth and keep the status quo, so that these parasites can continue sucking blood out of the US taxpayers.

  • I hope Judd Gregg has begun packing up his cushy office, since he won't be in the same employ for much longer.

    Out with the buffoons.

  • Isn't it Congress' job to coin and print money?

  • Judd Gregg is such a hack. He thinks that the ABSENCE of the Fed would threaten the value of the dollar? Somebody needs to ask him to compare the price of goods in 1913 with the price of goods in 2009. Then he should read Murray Rothbard's What Has the Government Done to Our Money? to find out exactly why the destruction of the dollar is precisely the result one should expect from a central bank. Ron Paul doesn't want the Congress to be in charge of money, he wants the market to be.

  • Isn't Gregg being a hypocrite when he accuses Paul of populism, using the Fed as a whipping boy, when he sits there and uses congress as a whipping boy saying we can't have monetary policy subject to incompetent and corrupt congressmen?

  • "We went through economic shifts with the gold standard."

    Yeah it's called growth.

  • Gregg talks about how the bill would result in the Fed losing its independence, and a weakened dollar. Has he been asleep in the past 10 years? What independence has the Fed had? It's been collaborating with the administration to keep interest rate too low too long and blowing up the bubble. The dollar as a result has already weakened significantly. Maybe audits of the Fed would result in more scrutiny from the public (not Congress) and makes it act more responsibly.

  • @jshawsworld They have to keep the interest low. Their increase in the money supply over the last year only has one conclusion, hyper inflation and hyper interest, they are trying to stave off the monster as long as possible. They will bleed the current FR created "crisis" for all it's worth, then they will bleed the next FR created "crisis" for all it's worth also. Anyone who believes Obama that he wants the banks to start lending is delusional, as soon as they do, the monster is out of the box

  • You americans need to back ron paul as much as you can.

  • You notice how Gregg stumbles all over the place when Paul says a competition of currency vs the fed printing money out of thin air.

  • The only one blowing anything is you Gregg. Horrible getting that FED taste out of your mouth, isn't it?

  • Blow hot and cold? This guy is the only thing blowing anything - his FED overlords.

    That guy is a D-bag.

    Go Ron!

  • Senator Gregg stop, your embarrassing yourself.

  • Gregg is owned by the banks

  • End The Fed

  • Sen. Judd Gregg is Outa There Next Term ? End the Judd ?

  • @louis12346

    Who is running against him and where do I send the check?

  • It's funny how a gold standard is "going backwards" and a "movement"; like fiat money and debasing money through some central entity is something "new" and lasting.

    Forget about the banks or special interest - price-fixing or setting interest rates just doesn't allocate resources or credit/capital efficiently.

  • Constiution = USA

    When you start drifting from the constitution...

  • Greggs and expert at changing the subject and changing things people say to better his argument...typical eliteist scumbag ...the people of America need to wake up and look past political fools like this and realize its guys like him holding this country down, and protecting his "elite" buddies

  • Key question ...."Why are you so frightened about transparency?".....We should never be afraid of the truth.

  • Ron kicks butt. He handled that Republican Senator easily.

  • This senator might have received some "Tiger woods' type prostitute cash" for some trips in Argentina!

  • anyone pick up on how ron looked when the senator said they were friends? i don't think ron would be friends with the likes of gregg.

    it is easy being friend with statist democrats because they practice what they preach. but statist republicans are snakes, they talk free markets and implement control, they talk fiscal responsibility and give us record debt.

    if ron is like i think he is, he feels more at home with intellectually bankrupt but honest democrats. to a degree.

  • I would be PROUD to hang that fucking senator Gregg. Proud.

  • Let them have it Dr. Paul!

    We are with you!

    Peace

  • New Hamphire author and journalist Jack McEnany reported that "former Republican State Committee executive director, and convicted phone jammer, Chuck McGee, has claimed under oath that Sen. Judd Greggs chief of staff, Joel Maiola, personally delivered checks totaling $15,000 from the Mississippi Choctaw and Agua Calienti tribes to the NH Republican State Committee office a week before the 2002 election." The tribes were clients of convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff."

  • I used to have huge amount of respect for the people of new hampshire.

  • A Senator not wanting Congress at it..

    This Senator is corrupted by the system and actually trying to act like a statement in Ron's book is a statement from the actual bill.What a bullshit artist that is what this Senator is doing.

  • The implication of Senator Gregg's claim is that he thinks transparency will strengthen the case for ending the fed, and weaken the case for central banking. In other words, he thinks that the Fed has something to hide, and keeping that something secret from the American people is good for America. His is a totalitarian position.

  • As usual, Ron Paul is so far ahead of these cranks that he looks like someone from outer space. How can people like the Senator and these economic pundits be so ignorant of whats happening to the dollar?

  • Jug head er... Judd gregg is possibly being paid by the fed maybe the den of thieves called congress are running scared for auditing the fed because it would expose who the fed is lobbying. The chance Jug head would be on their pay roll. Look at the history of the 3central banks in america and learn the placement of them was to bankrupt America because we ditched England. The first 2 banks was run by none other than Rothchild. He funded the war of 1812 after Madison fought off to end them

  • Thanks GOP for driving me away..I don't know if it matters but I am changing to Libertarian.

  • loose cannon is not an accurate word for Dr. Paul. He is the OPPOSITE of loose cannon, because he has been the most consistent member of Congress for 30 years: always refers to Constitution; always anti-war; always anti tax; always free market; always pro-personal Liberty. ALWAYS. 100%. Not only is he the OPPOSITE of a "loose cannon".. he is the only STEADY cannon bolted in one spot: Individual Liberty & the Constitution.

  • Gregg just doesn't get it I think. The guys who do know (Bernanke) stutter when they defend the FED.

  • Gregg had no substance in his arguments, shifted the subject that is an indication of political mudslinging, and at the end of it did not argue well.

  • Senator Gregg obviously has no clue whatsoever.

  • Judd Gregg of New Hampshire LMFAO!!! What an ass. once again morons voting in arrogant asshole into office that should not be in there.

    It's clear that the idiot did not read the bill and once again some one that probable has had there hand in the cookie jar.

    Dear idiots from NH. vote this pig out.

  • Judd Gregg is afraid of competition with the Fed's money because he know's the dollar can't compete with gold.

  • Hey New Hampshire vote this smart ass, agent of the FED, Judge Gregg OUT!!!

  • Gregg indicated that he would not run for re-election in 2010, but at a subsequent press conference, Gregg stated that he would "probably not" run for re-election, leading to speculation that he is leaving the door open to change his mind. On April 1, Gregg reaffirmed that he would not run. (From wikipedia article on 2010 new hampshire senate race)

  • aww man..ron played right into gregs hands..but ron is right in the end.

  • I had no idea that any Senator would be against auditing the Fed. I have lost every bit of respect I had for Judd Gregg.

  • this was the best debate i've ever heard about the audit the fed bill and what would replace it if we abolished it. they went back and forth and the fools around them stayed silent for the most part.

  • Sad thing...there are probably less Texas Blackeye Peas than Dollars. Governments do not like the private sector cutting in on their monopolies of Money and Weapons. How can a supposed Conservative defend against Capitalism? Is the Fed not a Central Planning Entity? Central Planning not only for the United States but for the world through the financing of the Empire. Spend, Spend, Spend and throw the debt to 3/4 of the world through debasing of the reserve currency. Hell Yeah End the Fed!

  • LOL, those puppets for the Fed can't even speak clearly, all they can do is try to muddy the water by talking in double speak "I believe in transparency, yet not the kind of transparency that tells us anything about the only important part of what the fed does" Ok maybe they didn't say it in those exact words, but more or less that is what they say.

    Ron Paul on the other hand states clearly that his bill is simply to look at the decisions of the fed, in retrospect after 6mo. end of story.

  • This guy Gregg totally embarrassed himself.

  • I like how Paul explains upfront how the fed is NOT politically independent in its present form, and Gregg then continues to raise that same red herring over and over like a broken record. Repeat a lie often enough and people will assume it's true? Psychopaths like Gregg are successful politicians because generally speaking, people can't tell when they're being lied to.

  • Republicans wonder why they have such a credibility problem. It is because of folks like Sen. Gregg who argue in favor of socialistic central planning of monetary control and manipulation. Central planning is proven ineffective and inefficient wherever it is tried, yet Gregg wants a Soviet style central planned banking and monetary system. It is control that they want. It is antithetical to free markets, capitalism, and a free society. Why is Gregg so afraid of free markets? Boot Sen. Gregg!

  • Any politician that runs against Gregg should play this clip over and over. He thinks Paul is running the Populism card. NH will show what populism is really about. This is the biggest windfall every given to an opponent. New Hampshire needs to wake up find a way to get him out of there. This clip along with the TARP buddy system and any development helped out by Gregg, its time to show what transparency is all about. Thanks CNBC for letting him hang himself!

  • You are right. I think Senator Judd Gregg just commited political suicide with his anti-free market fervent defense of Soviet style central planning and control of monetary manipulation and banking.

  • you wonder why even though ppl cant stand obama, they arent running to the republicans? the answer is this asshole neo-con Gregg.

    what a disgusting piece of garbage. i want sound money, not depreciating currency.

  • there was a wise man that said this once "A man should keep his words short and sweet, because he has no idea when he has to eat them"

    This is in regards to that moronic senator

  • Retire Judd

  • Article 1 Section 10 of the constitution: "No state shall... make anything but Gold and Silver coin a tender in payment of debt." Whether or not we agree about this, this is still the law and our constitution is being undermined. This law should either be amended or the gold standard reinstated. From a constitutional standpoint, the Fed is illegal. Period.

  • The problem with these talking heads is that they don't have a clear understanding of what they're discussing. They simply believe what they've been told and object because they believe they should object.

    It's a lazy approach to serious issues and they lose all credibility when they act the way they do.

    "You're making our case, Ron"

    Other way around, dude.

    An audit will end the FED because they've been jacking our currency and using us for profit.

    They steal our wealth and keep us in debt.

  • Sen. Gregg is a dumb ass and a smug fuck.

  • This all out attack on the Audit was done with the subtlety of baboon. With all their oratory skills they don't get it that people are not that dumb to not understand what the fed and those who uphold it are doing. Thank you Judd for your appearance, it is great when the enemies of the people expose themselves so clearly.

  • The Keynesian criminals need the Fed to push Imperialism. Otherwise they couldn't finance wars, bribes, welfare, propaganda

  • I don't know why my previous comment disappeared, but Gregg is a pro-bailout, big banker loving, fake conservative. That's all anyone watching this video needs to know.

  • Tell us Judd, why is an audit a "threat"? An audit is only a "threat" if you are doing something underhanded.

    To quote you Sen Judd, "you just made our point". The Fed is a stinkin cesspool of elitist criminals stealing the people blind and is due a full audit, which would lead to its abolition and public beheadings.

  • LOL...Gregg was about to sat I don't have to read the bill! @6:48

  • Gregg is an absolute moron. He will eat his words.

  • this senator is a democrat in disguise look him up in wikipedia and you'll know what I am talking about. Look up Judd Gregg.

  • Again, the implication that it will totally undermine the Fed's independence is false. We won't know what the Fed has done for 6 months after the fact. You know I wish that argument would work for taxes. "Oh no if we do audits people won't pay their taxes" or campaign contributions "Oh no if we publicize what people contribute it undermines people's incentive to get involved in democracy. Why do you HATE democracy, apple pie and and America!!!?"

  • Gregg, you just fucked up and ended your political career. You just dissed the people's champ and came to the defense of the evil plutocrats that are using the Fed (and the feds) to ruin the country. You're finished, at least in New Hampshire. You wont be able to get elected dog catcher.

  • I hope the people in NH can organize and throw this guy out.

  • @robpriv75

    Amen brother lets draw this muther fuqueer quarter. This tool of the fed is flushing the American people down the shit hole the fed has created and this prick is going to bat for them. I'm telling ya, there was a day when freedom rang loud and clear and this asshole would be on the firing line literally.

  • Gregg is a douchebag and is the reason why the USA is spiralling down into a steaming pile of crap. The country is doomed because it has been taken over by bankers.

  • If the dollar was backed by "Texas black eyed peas" at least they would have to plant them to inflate the money supply and in the end it would still be backed by something more tangible than our current phoney fiat script. So I say, hell yes, if that's our only other option then bring on the Pea-Green-Back!

  • The independence of the Fed has make slaves out of every working person in the US. We are no longer the masters of our own destiny, rather paupers in our own country. If the Fed was so great, then why are there more poor people in this country then ever before? Why has virtually every major manufacturer left? Why does it take more dollars to buy the same goods that were available 10, 20, 60 years ago? The Fed is destroying this country from the inside out.

  • Gregg is smoking some strong stuff if he think Ron Paul secretly wants the congress in charge of monetary policy, he clearly knows nothing about Ron paul or his bill .

    Gregg is nothing but a shill spouting talking points.

  • Jud lost jobs in New Hampshire because he fights to protect bankers who are supporting anything but honest enterprise. Could not get floor planning on a food product due to bankers not understanding floor planning... They don't understand jobs has nothing to due with loan to value...Or any such nonsense. The crony bankers would lend to governments predatory private equity thieves.

  • What a fucking disgrace this guy just made of himself in the first 30 secs of the video.. This is a serious issue and the guy is trying to make a joke about comparing the gold standard to black-eyed peas? Pathetic. Please throw this guy out office.

  • The neo-con big government supporters are exposing themselves... I like this. Bye bye Gregg. We got your number now.

  • WOW the dialogue is actually a dialogue. This is what happens when THE PEOPLE get off their backsides and say "Enough is Enough" The FED is a fraud. How can a private for profit banking institution that established an ARMED IRS justify it's existence in what is supposed to be a free country ? The money you pay in income taxes goes right to these thieves in interest payments. Nothing about the FED is stable except for their endless greed. END THE FED.

  • And while your at it take note of the supposed representatives in government, the senate and the house that reject an audit of the FED and reject them the next election cycle.

  • Judd Gregg...if there was ever a guy with 'special interests', it's this one.

  • "A movement that genuinely believes that the fed is a bad institution" RIGHTLY SO!!! They have failed to do what they are supposed to do. Unemployment is above 20 percent. The dollar is worth 4 cents of the dollar in 1913. Interest rates have been politicized and are too low. how long will these phony conservatives continue to argue with reason. Listen too him! he doesn't even know what currency is. How could you argue that printing money out of thin air is worth anything

  • Shocker..according to the Wall Street Journal, Judd Gregg was a huge bailout pusher:

    "Last fall, Mr. Gregg played a key role in the struggle to enact the $700 billion bank bailout plan, helping in negotiations that brought together Republican and Democratic leaders behind the Bush initiative."

    No wonder he's so scared of HR 1207. He doesn't want the activities of his rich banker buddies exposed to the American people.

  • I do think that there are people that are using the Fed as a whipping boy because they don't really understand, or theyre hardcore conspiracy theorists, or whatever you might call it. but they're right! people should be a bit more informed because the argument against the fed is really the higher ground.

  • I understand completely that the Fed is the main cause of our problems. They create the business cycle. Interest rates are signals. When the Fed distorts interest rates it sends false signals to investors, causing them to do all kinds things they wouldn't do under free market interest rates. This is the Austrian theory of the business cycle. There's no way the housing bubble could have been financed under real interest rates. Those that understand the theory, predicted eg. Ron Paul, P. Schiff.

  • From wikipedia:

    "In the Senate Gregg was the leading Republican negotiator and author of the TARP program, which bailed out financial institutions, while he had a multi-million dollar investment in the Bank of America.."

  • whats the source linked at the bottom of the wiki page that substantiates this quote?

  • Judd Gregg is an idiot. He think it's important to preserve the secrecy of a destructive institution. They are the CAUSE of the collapse. To keep the Fed secret after they've destroyed the value of the dollar and brought us the two greatest downturns in history? Does he know that prices fell from 1776 to 1913? There is no way that prices should be rising with all of the technological advances we've had since 1913. Bread should be cheaper than it was in 1913. The Fed is why they go up!

  • Gregg was one of the main witers of the TARP robbery. Screw Him!

  • Follow the money here, I be willing to bet that Gregg has a huge support group that have interests in the Financial industry and Banking industry. What a freaking "Useful Idiot".

  • God I love America. I'm sick of living in England with all the sheep. Can anyone suggest a good state to live in.

  • Only the most free state in America, Big Wonderful, Wyoming.

  • Texas!

  • Texas

  • Don't come to New Jersey unless you have an orifice that's very "flexible."

  • LLLLMMMMMFFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    their friends XD

  • Judd Greg is a dick and is in bed with the fed.

  • Gregg's a traitor to reality & life, a fiat-ist, one who profits from the ignorance of others, constant double-speak, lies promoted as truth, truly, a flake. The corrupt fed must be able to buy sum-thing more versed then a fool, peons are fools puppets, tools, he seems to be auditioning for a raise from peon to puppet. Soon all fiatists, pretenders, those who're death on 2-legs, who earn from theft/deception & oppression, reap from what they've sown, lies do not protect those who garden-lies.

  • Gregg is part of the problem. He is defending a criminal enterprise. THE FEDERAL RESERVE SUCKS.

  • From Wikipedia:

    "In the Senate Gregg was the leading Republican negotiator and author of the TARP program, which bailed out financial institutions, while he had a multi-million dollar investment in the Bank of America..[25][26][27]"

  • "The Associated Press reported that Gregg and his family profited...from federal earmarks steered by the senator for the redevelopment of a closed Air Force base.[28] Gregg has denied any wrongdoing, and claimed his withdrawal for the Cabinet position had nothing to do with what the White House found about his involvement with the real estate companies during the vetting process."

  • gregg is an idiot, Rep Paul was quoting from the constitution article 1 section 8 which states congress has the authority to coin money and regulate the value there of. gregg does not even know the constitution he supposedly swore to up hold.

  • hell yea Sen Gregg read from Paul's book. the fed is a tyrannical institution.

    the Paul Grayson bill simply brings transparency to the fed and shows how the fed has devalued the US currency. once that happens I hope the people are wise enough to cast of this tyranny and restonre constitutional governing.

  • Hell ya read it all. Then the American people can see we don't need the FED or your disease after all. He is trying to jump the gun, but first things first. GAO does the audit, then the people demand to END THE FED!!

  • Gregg is a complete moron, nothing but empty dishonest rhetoric. That he kept talking about keeping the Fed secretive as a means to keeping the dollar strong and the market stable was completely laughable.

  • It's really a testament to Ron that he can keep his sanity in Washington.

    I think I'd lose my mind having to listen to this tripe day in and day out.

  • What a fucking douchetard. Anyone with half a brain cell can see the scum bag debating Dr.Paul is a total corporatist shill.

  • Time for NH to wake up and can this idiot's rump.

  • The Fed is critical for financial stability!? Judd is a complete tool.

  • This doosh is a representative of NH??? What a corporate schill.......embarassment to the state!

  • Ron Paul would fit right in with our founding fathers. The FED is an evil tool of USURY! We left England for FREEDOM! FINANCIAL FREEDOM! We left the banking dictatorships that ran the mid evil ages and wanted to keep what we earned. The income tax is a unlawful tool of the FED and has never been properly appropriated and should be abolished as it is not even used to run our government , it is paid directly to the FED and central bankers that PRIVATELY retain ownership of all profits made........

  • Boot Judd. Time to clean the house

  • Senator Gregg's banker and big-pharma financed gravy train is off the tracks and careening straight down a hill toward Failville.

    And all it took was Dr. Paul laying some gold coins on the tracks.

  • Sen. Gregg is a traitor. What a meathead. Ron Paul is right. Gregg should look at history, no fait currency has ever lasted. When it does happen what will he have to say then. Ron Paul needs the support of the everyone in this country now. Help expose the truth about the fed. They are nothing more than a group of crooks running jerks like Gregg.

  • Hopefully he won't be able to speak, with that barrel in his mouth.

  • Gregg muddles the water. Just remember its transparency not intervention.

  • Man I wish Schiff was in this debate too.

  • gregg : " we will end up with a dollar being weak and our currency being at risk ..."

    You gotta be kidding me, the dollar hast lost more than 90% of its value since the Fed was created in 1913.

  • gregg is a grad A scumbag

  • Who in their right mind wants paper over silver and gold? Change the Constitution is the best argument.

  • great debate
