  • I wonder if Peter ever actually got his penny? Nope, doubt it... just more grief from different analysts saying he doesn't know what he's talking about when he says our currency is going to collapse.

  • Our buddy Art is endorsing Newt Gingrich...

  • I think schiff is a lot more effective here than in more recent features. he remains calm and makes short, precise points that the average schmuck can easily grasp,

  • It's interesting how Laffer looks so much like an evil goblin and Schiff looks like an honest campaigner for truth and justice.

    Hollywood - make this a movie!

  • OBAMNEY!

    Between January and September 2011, Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital gave Barack Obama $27,500!

    So far this year, Bain Capital donated $123,200 to the Democratic National Committee. They also donated to a Romney super PAC; $1.25 million!

    Romney’s companies have sent 25% of this year’s donations to the Democrats, while in 2008, 2/3 of their money went to Obama!

    Donkey or Elephant – Corporations keep them FED.

    Please give Ron Paul some consideration. I’m not a kid; I’m a university professor.

  • Laffer has been wrong so many times. Why is he still on TV?

  • Art Laffer Says Oil Will Fall Below $35 Per Barrel Jan 15 2007

  • I bet Laffer's goofy grin looks more like his curve now.

  • Ron Paul peter schiff 2012!

  • is that a vampire

  • He owes Schiff a penny.

  • I love how Kudlow defends Laffer (who was historically wrong and has even admitted it) by pushing the Feminist agenda (which was started by the same banks who Laffer defends).

  • Peter Schiff endorses Ron Paul, another man who predicted the housing bubble and wrote a bill to help prevent it. Obviously no one listened to him.

  • I wish the ratio was 1 out of 3 globally... but it is more like 1 out of a few Billion... OMG, that interview was "??loss of words??" ... Anyway safest bet EVER.

  • Peter was right about the women thing. Bitch was probably just a feminist cunt. Women have always been the back bone and heart of the the family structure while men have always been the mussel and brains. Both are extremely important roles. The 21st century has fucked everything up. Get off the internet. GO OUTSIDE. WE WEREN'T FUCKING READY FOR THIS TECHNOLOGY! WE'RE HUMANS! WE HAVE ABUSED AND PERVERTED IT ALL! IT'S WHAT WE DO!

  • @7:57 says it all XD

  • Arthur should watch Zeitgeist.

  • "I'll bet you a LOT more than a penny."

  • There are a few politicians aswell who predicted the recession in 1999 when the dreadful financial services act of 1999 was passed by the evil republican congress and democrat president Clinton . They are saying December is when a economic collapse will take place.

  • Laugh-er should resign from his profession out of shame.

  • its kind of hard for art laffer to bet some thing he doesn't have, for the retards out there laffer has no honor.

  • Laffer should have lost his job. YTo many asshats in the world and he is one, as is Ben Stein. The wealth has now been horded by the wealthy and the corporations as they wait for what comes next.

  • it's like an intellectual samurai duel. your honor vs. my honor and penny... laffer made a losing bet on that one and MUST PERFORM HARA KIRI which is probably why he isn't around to take back his future projections about the economy

  • Laffer laid the ground work for this with his well named laugher curve. Any body with a brain knew it made no sense.

  • It's scary how absolutely right Peter was and how absolutely wrong Aurthur was.

  • @SevenFootPelican

    Um....all he did was say that bad things would happen in the future and sat on it.

    Name me a _positive_ prediction Peter Schiff has made. Just humor me. Find me _one_.

    Or at least weave me an amusing tale about how nothing good can ever happen because of the Fed's Satanic Rothschild Jew Evil and the NWO/Illuminati Reptilians.

    Whichever you prefer.

  • @Eldeecue "Bad things"? He was pretty specific when mentioning that we'd be experiencing a recession... he pointed out that we'd be expecting a "housing bubble" his exact word... he was even on point with respect to the years (he predicted 07-08). If that isn't impressive economic forecasting, then I really don't know what is.

    I won't even justify the rest of your rant-like comment with an answer -- as It holds no relevance to my original comment...

  • @SevenFootPelican It's right because he is one of the scumbags that caused it.

    Obviously you can predict something with great accuracy if you are the one that CAUSED IT in the first place.

  • @logan0178 Peter is the CEO of a relatively small investment firm... so how do you figure he was responsible for the financial crisis? You don't even bother to elaborate... He wasn't in charge of the rating agencies giving AAA ratings to sub prime mortgages, he wasn't in charge or even a part of any of the large, too big to fail predatory lending investing firms like GSachs. He wasn't a home buyer who borrowed what couldn't be lent back.. wasn't an insurance company... again, can you elaborate?

  • @SevenFootPelican Are you seriously that moronic? He's an investment broker, and the CEO of Euro Pacific Capital.

    No one said he was the SOLE cause of the meltdown you retard. He is certainly one of the many responsible.

  • @logan0178 Clearly you're the fucking retard. How naive of you to go ahead an generalize all investment brokers. I'm asking you to elaborate on how Peter specifically was even partially responsible for the crisis we witnessed in '08. All you do is point out the obvious of him being the CEO of an investment firm - yet you fail to mention anything he's done to take part in the crumbling of our economy. There are tons of investment brokerage firms out there - not all are responsible for this mess.

  • @SevenFootPelican You prove me right with your infantile retort. You know nothing of what you are trying (and failing) to talk about.

  • @logan0178 Now you're just dancing around the confrontation... real fucking cute. Again, it's pretty evident that you have nothing to back up your overwhelmingly unwarranted and, quite frankly, entirely stupid prior claims. You can sit here and attempt to throw petty insults at me -- but the fact remains that you still haven't (and probably are incapable of) pointing out how, in any way shape or form, that Schiff was even remotely responsible for the crisis. Stop dancing around the question.

  • @logan0178 Look up his views on monetary policy and his views on the fed. He is against the very things that causes this boom and bust economy. Go and actually learn about the fed and how our countries monetary system is run. You are against the very same things he is, only he actually knows the cause and you just want to throw money at the issue which is just throwing fuel on the fire.

  • Freer trade than ever before?? Laffer is so far from reality it's pretty astounding.

  • someone should email this video to art laffer.

  • LOL @ Laffer

  • Laffer is one of those economists that says "unexpectedly" which each new news on the economy methinks

  • Art.... you fuck!

  • What I want to know, is how Art can still be in a job after making this howler of a prediction.

  • LAFFER.. Pride doth come before the fall

  • the woman really missed the point of having a child and having to work. Being a food server is harder then being a talking head

  • If I did not listen to Peter Schiff's Mortgage Bankers Speech back in 2006 and I listened to these clowns in main stream media and Washington... I would be homeless and not have a roof over my head today.

  • They almost bet on air.

  • Listen to Maria pounce on the opportunity to turn this into a PC argument regarding women! she is pathetic!

  • @MojaveGreenXXX Yeah she is ridiculous. Off base and ridiculous

  • we helping the 1 by obiant behaviour and we are on the mean event menu that is written in georgia.maybe it is only our lifes that are on the line....

  • what a news....ppff that was tottaly from a never see it comming corner....i

    if the folkd on the selfego hill have a nother not this system agenda ....dont wait for the selution ringess on the door...because we know the system is hyject waiting from the same guys for selution?? a real selution in the sinkhole ...as the only 1

    we have to think alternatives...or we wait and at the end the drasic sLafe making...things is the right thing for a cociety tha can not think anymore??

  • Peter is a seer and a genius. I wish I had heard him before. Laffer is a joke.

  • HEY LAFFER PAY UP!!!

  • Ron Paul 2012

    He has never voted to raise taxes.

    He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.

    He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.

    He has never voted to raise congressional pay.

    He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.

    He voted against the Patriot Act.

    He voted against the Iraq War.

    He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. Treasury every year.

  • Art Laffer hahahahahahahahahahaha, I'd love to hear from his ridiculous arse!!!!

  • That punk probly neer payed him.

  • Henry Kissinger said, "Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy."

  • Schiff and the economy are like chess and Kasparov he is thinking 25 moves in front :)

  • Art Laffer, why does anyone even listen to this guy anymore? EVERYTHING he predicted on this show was 100% wrong. On the other hand, EVERYTHING Peter Schiff said was 100% correct The only reason interest rates have not risen more is because the Fed has forced them to zero and even injected hundreds of billions of free money into T-bills. Even Peter could not have predicted how willing the Fed would be to destroy the U.S. dollar just to keep their Ponzi scheme afloat for a few more months.

  • This guy Laffer is a laughing joke, is he just incompetent or was he trying to cover his Wall St. mates? Want to see what a laughing joke is? Just look at his dorky smile at 4:39

  • Art Laffer: Supply-Side Advocacy at its best. "Hey, there's nothing out there to indicate a recession is coming--MY wallet is fine!"

  • 2005 was a nasty year $780,000 for a house

  • Laffer wow

  • I would LOVE to hear what Laffer has to say about this now, after our "Great Recession." Pleeeeeeeeeeeease, if anyone has video of this idiot trying to backtrack on what he said, I will love you forever

  • Peter Schiff rules! Savings, which allow for investment and production, mean a healthy economy. Debt and consumption is poverty while savings and production is wealth. Savings and production allow for consumption.

  • With each day that passes, Art Laffer looks more and more ridiculous in this video. Much like sports fans look at an aging coach and say "the game has passed him by", it's time for Art Laffer to retire into the sunset. He simply doesn't have it anymore. Thank you Peter Schiff for being such a courageous Patriot !!

  • I usually like Art Laffer and I also always like what Peter Schiff has to say. Wow Art, Wow you were wrong on this one

  • @fattydomels Schiff was wrong, too--"I think it's going to be pretty bad"...... PRETTY bad? It's been HORRENDOUS!

  • Sorry Art. Looks like Peter has been proven right looking back from June 2011

  • Mike Whitney had an article out predicting the "economic tsunami" in April 2005. So much for the great Peter Schiff.

  • Schiff speaks of the "artificially low interest rates which are quickly going to be a thing of the past". His crystal ball has been cloudy on that one, hasn't it. Interest rates are always set artificially, always. Laffer is totally wrong about the taxes. Income tax cuts are always grabbed by the boss - it's seen as a rise. That's why income taxes are considered to be a factor in the competitiveness of labour.

  • Schiff was no prophet. Many on the Left predicted this though their argument was that as wages have flatlined for most people, as productivity growth has been all grabbed by the super-rich, that the consumption driving the economy increasingly became covered by private debt, an unsustainable course. The problem is that the super rich have grabbed all the productivity growth. Schiff speaks of production - production is driven by demand which he wants to reduce? That's totally illogical.

  • @lordhighexecutioner He must be talking about production driven by foreign demand. Balancing the U.S. foreign trade is obviously a priority for him, which makes some sense. Increasing exports is probably the soundest way to increase real wealth, while increasing savings, even though it can have a negative impact on consumption, increases the capital available for private investment and job creation. And the good news is that capital will not have to be repaid to foreign creditors.

  • @lordhighexecutioner Only savings allow for investment which leads to the production of new, innovative products. We always have a desire to consume new ipads, medical treatments, etc. Saving is merely withdrawing from present consumption to engage in future consumption of goods that are produced because of the investment of savings. Savings and production allow for consumption. Only through savings can investment be made to provide goods for consumption in the future.

  • "All the Dollar is going to be worth is a penny." LOL, that is hilarious! Thanks to Peter soon, I will be out of my U.S. currency.

  • DR. LAUGH-ER....yea you are a laugher. I kinda like trickle down but, man, you must be a Bush big spender blueblood. Time to retire......doctor.

  • what is so incredible is that the average person walking on the street has no clue who peter is or the implications of what he said...our government is intentionally leading us into an economic meltdown...shame on us for not rioting and reclaiming our country

  • Comment removed

  • Peter,I love watching the sheep slowly being slaughtered in front of my eyes

  • 2 years later dude prlly said " danm he was right now I owe him a penny -_-"

  • Whats the other schmucks name. I want to send him an email with this video attached..lol

  • @Joelzinho He is the inventor of voodoo economics, the one whose picture on a napkin began the whole "lowering taxes increase revenue" racket adopted by Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush and Paul Ryan and the Republicans of today.

  • Woo, this is so cool seeing Peter predicting the 2008 collapse! Gives him a lot of credibility this time around :)

  • This video is useful.

  • I like this video.

  • Good video.

  • I guess Schiff 'laffed' last.

  • Wow unbelievable.

  • Peter Schiff is great.

  • Thank you for sharing.

  • He got that right! Doesn't look like the 'global free market' aka 'let the corporations do whatever they like' worked out that well. Ironic: now even the public sector is busy implementing 'free market' mechanisms! The guys in charge are supposed to be intelligent ie they can use observations to make rational decisions. Maybe not so clever?

  • if they are making payments on their car. They say yes. I see. So I then ask are they paying a mortage. They say yes. I see. YOU DON'T OWN SHIT. NOT A FUCKIN THING. The banks own your asses dumb asses. WAAAAAAAKE UUUUUUUPPPPPPP. Damn their are some dumb ass people here.

  • I'm elated we are in this recession and I HOPE it carries on because us spoiled ass Americans borrows tooooo much fuckin paper money. If you don't have the actually american green dollars in your fuckin pocket. DON'T BUY A FUCKIN THING. When I purchased my $8,000 car, I payed cash. When I purchased a $12,000 car, I again payed cash. I worked an average 65 hours a week. So what. At least the stuff is mine. That's the other funny part when I hear people say I own this or that. Then I ask

  • all the dollar is going to be worth is a penny... ah fuck

  • If you enjoyed this then google: Ron Paul Freddie and Fannie.

    Dr Paul and Schiff are near identical in their theory and economic background, only Paul gave essentially the same argument on the floor of the House in 2003 when the bubble was in its infancy.

  • i guess he owes peter schiff a penny

  • @bccnum8 ...The women working thing she is using is based upon her own personal feelings not about the fact that Sciff was trying to make in that most families in today's economy do need two working people ... guys in today's economy would have issues trying to stay home but also that comes down to people not knowing how to save and spend and cut the amount they are spending on none essentials... so they can live within their true means. Eventually people will have to relearn how to live simply.

  • @bccnum8 too bad he's not man enough to pay up.

  • "all the dollar is going to be worth is a penny." Get rocked laffer

  • Ugh! I can't stand when people laugh at those who were dead on only using common sense to make their observations. Cunts.

  • Schiff in a "laffer" over the blind competition

  • Nice snipe at the end "all the dollar is going to be worth is a penny".

  • Laffer investments ... i would assume is now defunct. Art Laffer was just protecting his turf and you can't blame him for that . Too bad he sounds and acts like a fool doing it.

  • sexy and Asian women Meet lushfmlk.info

  • Art nowadays is bad enough without this guy soiling all over the place with such bullshit.

  • Laffer pwned Schiff. Laffer didn't anticipate the Fed letting NGDP fall so far, so fast. Schiff got lucky, having way overstated the importance of debt and the housing market.

  • @SchiffNemesis Mate, I swear to god Laffer just sits there and smiles. The shit that spews from his mouth isn't worth the penny that he owes Schiff. He sounds friendly therefore people just assume he knows stuff. Unless there's some sort of cyber sarcasm I'm missing in your post, I disagree.

  • @coit105

    Are you rich?

  • @SchiffNemesis Not particularly why?

  • @coit105

    Exactly

  • @SchiffNemesis Wow, someone could shit in your face and you would call it pudding.

  • @SchiffNemesis lol..are you serious? Schiff didn't predict anything, he simply knew based on FEDs behavior and on the behavior of the markets and consumers. If you study the right economics you know what is going to happen, you don't need to predict anything. He didn't overstate the importance of the housing market. He stated the obvious. Thanks to the government's absurd policies the housing boom became the fuel for economic growth and its collapse.

  • Peterrrrr is the best!!!>.....

  • Arthur Laffer sounds like a WW2 axis era Propaganda Minister, and here we are 2011, and he was dead wrong.

  • The war in Libya is a distraction

    "BUSH OBAMA DESTROYED US ARMY"

  • Art Laffer is a fool.

  • Dumb economist Art Laffer! And I bet if that bitch didn't have a good career with a six figure salary she would have been a Gold Digger!

  • LAFFER is the typical economist idiot. Schiff is an honest man,

    not just smart.

  • I love peter .... Hes a master in Economics... He should run for congress!

  • "I'll bet you a lot more than a penny" - LOL

    CNBC = Constant Nonsense And Buffoonery

    What would happen if Obama could be as honest as Schiff was here?

  • I'd LAUGH my ass off if it wasn't so sad, Art LAUGHER you dumb ass. And that elitist bitch host completely missed the friggin' point. Hey Art, you still owe Peter that penny but with inflation that would be a million fiat dollars.

  • a -itch and a fool...got schooled

  • when he said women have jobs because they love it because of low taxes, its great with that bottom feeder coward voice, these people live in a fish bowl they dont know a life out of the rich manicure mansion fine wine life bunch fed bullshit stats to brainwash the idiots like this fellow bellow, the worst wasnty even touch the surface because oppl dont understand that usa was 15 trillion in debt and a debt black hole called derivatives everybody is getting out of the dollar, but joe the plumber

  • What is wrong with fearmongers. The US economy is recovering. Business are begining to hire again and foreclosure have stop and people are buying again.

    The only bad news is the price of oil because its spectators greed. Greed is the only motivating force that could destroy US economy.

  • @TheIxtlan who told you that?...laffer...?...

  • dont laffer feel stupid

  • Laffer and that woman would should be ashamed for making a joke out of this very serious issue.

  • WTF. Whether women like to work or not is not the point. Nobody can make it on a single income anymore, at least not like they used to. I'm so tired of this pc crap.

  • notice which side liberal CNBC takes

  • @FloridaRaider Which side? Are you referring to the side of the conservative or the side of the other conservative?

  • Looks like Art is riding the short the bus because he got schooled by Peter Schiff and Austrian School of Economics.

  • Lets like Art is riding on the short bus because he got schooled by Peter Schiff.

  • I've been listening to blowhards like Laffer since the 80's. They we're wrong then and they're wrong now. That's what happens when you get you're fundamentals wrong. Don't worry. Keep missing the point. We haven't hit bottom yet. And this is going to HURT.

  • Peter 1-0 Laffer
