@1:25 "Humans aren't greedy" I have a 3 year old sister.....it was easier to teach her how to sing than how to share. We are greedy by nature....that guy was bsing it
Social Security is not a Ponzi scheme. This man just vents bullshit. In the 1950s we had stronger unions. 33% of American workers were union members. Today it's 8%. The government has always bailed out big corporations. Slavery was introduced into the colonies by corporations and insurance companies also profited from slavery. Slaveowners took out insurance policies on their slaves. This guy doesn't know what he is talking about.
Personally I think Ron Paul is out of his mind in some cases. His foreign policy is INSANE. He wants to walk into Iran and try to be best friends with a country that hold public anti-American movements. We need to just leave, not hang around and act like everything is ok.
LOL that black guy talking about government ending slavery. They started, condoned and ended it because it was used as political propaganda for the civil war
I think I should run as a Democrat politition I could give myself as much money as I want that that's taken from the american tax payer then point the finger at the people who empoly them all say it's there fault take their money the liberials will praise me for it and I will get even more money and power wow democrats the way to go if you want power.
occupy wall st protesters are stupid. They do not realize that if CEO's lose their business then employees would be fired. no income means no money, no money means starvation and poverty for America.
If you complain about how much these CEO's are making, then make your own business and become a CEO, that way you can employ other people and probably make them a CEO too.
if the CEO's business fails a lot of people lose jobs. It's as simple as that. If a business id not making profit, we're F&*^%
I am a Ron Paul supporter and honestly the OWS does not represent the economic freedom views of Ron Paul by the way. The person who was representing the 1% is more of a Ron Paul supporter than anything honestly!!
@GreaserCoolRider I have looked at Ron Paul, his message is, your on your own, good luck with that, maybe the catholic church will take care of you. LOL. Ron Paul is another croney embedded just like Romney and Obama. JOIN OCCUPY !
@mijemu Of course your on your own. That is the basics of self-reliance that so you don't need government dependence. Thats whats also putting a serious blow to the economy is the amount of people on federal aid; especially the people who are not even looking for a job regardless of the economy. If we want to have a bosting economy we can't have all these wars and people depending on government programs. Ron Paul is and was never a crony. Please do your research kid and be educated.
@mijemu Just a thought if you want to put a boost in the economy why don't you try to get a job at least fill out applications. At least get your name out there. I mean it takes not that hard of work. Fill the page out and done. Simple!
@GreaserCoolRider I am legaly blind so filling out an application is impossible for me, I think your an idiot overall but after watching this video I can see why. It is all about control not compassion or care or humanity.
The woman at the end a lot of time in europe. Well it turns out that a lot of people are also sick of the sky high taxes rate. And I knew some people who had their own enterprises and at some point of the year just slowed down working because when you pay more that half of your earning in taxes it is not worth it.
I grew up in a f..g communist country. Some of these guys should try some communist regime. That way they will be able to compare the cruelty of capitalism with the democracy and abundance of a socialist society. They should also learn to behave and engage in a conversation. There is no point talking about this guys on tv as they are just raging all around.

For the first time in history science and spirituality are both saying that '' if we don't change we will destroy ourselves''.(Zeitgeist moving forward)-Spread the word.
An online wall street journal article points out why the "soak the rich" policies don't work, in fact they hurt the economy.Politicians in Annapolis created a millionaire tax bracket, raising the top marginal income-tax rate to 6.25%. One year later, one-third of the millionaires have disappeared from Maryland tax rolls. Instead of the coffers gaining the extra $106 million the politicians predicted, millionaires paid $100 million less in taxes than they did last year -- even at higher rates.
peter schiff is a self righteous fool. he makes generalisations about the people there. you all want low prices, look at you, your wearing clothes, you must like capitalism. fact is corperations and government own everybody!! i think that is obvious. the system doesnt work and is corrupt and people see that. it needs to change. peter schiff can try and justify why he likes capitalism and helps people but the system as it is, is broken and is unfair.
@northshorelifeguard you cant just say: this is what i want and it would work like this. system take centuries to build, plan. i think gov or whatever means of civil, economic rule should be from the bottom up, localised and fair. not from the top down, centralised and run by men who use laws for tools to take away peoples rights and lie to them and force them into wars and hoard resources between a minority. every person and region is different so needs shud be met on a lower level rather...
@TheConquest88 ...than a central bank or government dictating one law to all regions, without considering specific environments or situations. its ridiculous. besides in this video schiff obviously agrees with the corruption of government, and bankers even though he says change will happen in the white house, so instead of frustrating people by braggin about i earn over 2 mill and employ loads of people he should help the situation. clearly he is not the 1% that is being protested against...
@TheConquest88 if you payed attention to what he is saying he is saying that the system doesn't work and is corrupt. honestly you are just like the protesters in the video. government is the problem not capitalism. capitalism right now is not real capitalism. listen to what he is saying and do your research. "economic rule should be from the bottom up, localised and fair" is socialism or communism, just look at the soviet union. total failure.
@DBKK if you paid attention to what i wrote you wud see i never said i was anti capitalism. capitalism is a system, but right now the system has been used against the people, despite the fact it cud not operate without us. i am like the protesters in that i want transparent government with fair practice. doesnt everyone? i dont see what your criticising? if you did your research you wud see capitalism and communism were started by the same people. communism in practice has never been practiced..
@TheConquest88 ..in a bottom up manner. Besides China is a communist state so it hasnt failed. They hold a large quantity of the American debt.Not that Im pro communism. Anyway, if you did your research, you would see that the bankers and politicians are one and the same..so yes gov is the problem, but they are controlled by the banks. If capitalism was manifest as theory implies then maybe we wudnt have the problems we do. But private Federal Reserve etc is designed to hoard the wealth!!!
Rich fvcking people don't create jobs. WE, the PEOPLE, create jobs.
Shitffe, if we don't buy crap from you, you are not going to create no jobs. We, the people just have to work so that we can buy food and rent a place to live. You are just taking that money from us and robbing us more labor.
your rant here says that you create jobs, and the rich rob you of labour. I dont get it.
You Work. Unless you own a company of sorts, you work FOR someone. therefore THEY created the job FOR you. Obviously, they get paid more than you, since this is a meritocracy. If you "dont buy crap for schiff" then YOU are out of a JOB because HE cant pay you. Mind you if this were 3rd world, he WOULDNT pay you, ergo he's being generous, albeit forced.
People need to read Mike Stathis' articles on Peter Schiff, Marc Faber, Max Keiser, Merideth Whitney, Warren Buffet, George Soros, the Associated Press, Bloomberg, FBN, CNN, Rachel Madow, Seeking Alpha, Zero Hedge, Ron Paul, and every other person who is affiliated with Wall Street. All of these websites/people are financial HACKS. Here is an article about Merideth Whitney: Meredith Whitney Made Perhaps The Worst Call Of The Year. Mike Stathis' website AVAResearch. Everyone should read it.
I am not rich, or very well versed in politics. I am a performer for crying out loud. I think the biggest problem in our country, and in life, is that people do not want to listen or be informed b/c they believe their way of thinking is "right" and they are not in tune to facts and what is actually going on...if you are going to protest 1. make sure what you're fighting for actually makes sense 2. open your mind for a solution people
I know it's real easy to get pissed off at the protesters in this video because they wont listen to Schiff long enough to understand that he's trying to help them. When he says to "march on Washington, demand the end of the fed and get your freedoms back" it goes right over their heads. When he explains how the department of education is artificially inflating college tuition it goes right over their heads. So, instead of calling the protestors stupid or lazy... educate them if you can.
Great video but I don't think anyone listened. This ignorance is really typical of Occupiers in ever city. As soon as you make good, sound arguments, they go into ignorant mode and talk over you or leave. Every city.
@TheBeatDropper96 I respect a lot of other people he ACTUALLY DISCUSSED with. Notice how he opened his video with the words "dialogue" and "common ground"
@termanology85 thats called socialism buddy. I know the communist hippie types like yourself would love to not work and recieve a check of some hard workers money but thats not capitalism. If there is no benefit to working hard then why work hard at all. Then no one works hard and who pays for all the lazy individuals in this country who are to "oppressed, injured, downtroden" to work. WORK OR DIE
@termanology85 ohh yea and guess what the people who do make more pay more it is called tax brackets. The deductions of yesteryear are gone for the one percent they pay more than probably everyone you know combined and then multiplied by a factor of probably by your level of intelligence displayed here hundreds of thousands. So read a book not published by a pot smoking hippie wealth redistributing communist individual who lives in the real world.
8:32 is exactly why people see the 99% as a bunch of hypocrites...if you are going to call someone a fool, make sure you have given them ample time to explain themselves first...if you are going to ask them broad questions like "would you disband the board of education?" and not allow them to say anything longer than "yes" or "no"...then you my friend are a fool
@Wolfovicz Please, I DARE you to elaborate. What valid point? His opening statement was sufficiently rebuked with peter's statement "what does slavery have to do with anything?". Do you know how the economy works? Though I don't agree with peter that this is a ponzi scheme, it IS crony capitalism, not the capitalism america is built on, and therefore it was DESTINED to fail. I doubt someone with such irrelevant and narcissistic claims as yours even knows what those are. Have fun with wikipedia.
@ohaider101 What the fuck is crony capitalism? What is capitalism? Where is your evidence? What the black child was saying was that government has a purpose beyond the constraints of what Peter remarked. All I need to know about Peter is that he supports child labour laws. Does he even know why they were removed in the first place? Of course, it was out of concern of the capacity of working children to increase their capability.
@Wolfovicz The evidence is in the most controversial bill approved to date: the bailout. If someone as arrogant as you is going to make remarks about how the "government has a purpose" I suggest you google "crony capitalism" because you're reply has proven beyond a doubt how ignorant and dickheaded you are. Peter is using child labour laws as an extreme example, illustrating the extent that we have manipulated our capitalist system. Someone as dumb as you, I would expect to take him literally...
@ohaider101 In other words, a child who has become an expert wood worker as the result of working as a child will never become proficient in a field which requires ability given his or her lack of education. The myth of the free market needs to be shoved down the toilet and people with your gene pool ought to be exterminated.
@Wolfovicz Your whole argument is flawed. What does career effeciency have anything to do with finance? debt? Take your argument to the "Occupy USC" people, with whom I actually sympathize, as a college student myself. unfortunately, the bar has been raised sir. Work harder, get credited. That's all. Peter's concepts are SO simple, you're insane not to agree. Something as obvious as "you cant borrow money forever" is central to his ideas. Get educated.
@ohaider101 You obviously haven't researched the totality of Peter's positions. The government doesn't burrow money, you fool. It creates it. It issues dollars and can create as much as it wants provided it doesn't create a rise in prices. Please read a book. Peter's father is a criminal. His brokerage firm has been found to be fraudulent by multiple watchdog organisations. Fuck.
@Wolfovicz You do understand the idea of inflation? fucking how many times do i have to say it. CURRENCY IS A CONCEPT. you print more, the concepts value goes down (GERMANY, 1930's). the government cant CREATE currency out of nothing, just DEVALUE it by printing it. What the fuck do you think Fort Knox is for? SHOW? what about the Fed? "Oh gold? no fuck that that's worthless, cotton paper is where its at. AND WE HAVE A LOT OF TREES AND COTTON". You're an idiot. This conversation is over.
@Wolfovicz Additionally, if you paid attention AT ALL rather than attempting to flame speech for your unfounded ideas, peter actually SUPPORTS Occupy... just NOT WALLSTREET. At its foundation, the problem lies with THE FED GRANTING WALLSTREET the magic ability to do whatever they want without repercussions. Once again, "you cant borrow money forever" because "capitalism is a concept, its not a physical exchange that is consistently measurable" - the US will just print more... Germany 1930's?
@MrPurdy33 agreed. He's so ignorant, he spews his shit, without trying to hear the other side of the argument. Therefore its NOT an argument. The one thing and liberal arts class teaches you in college is that to argue properly, you MUST LISTEN ACTIVELY. If he had given schiff a chance, he would have heard him talk about restructuring, how his "rape victim" sarcasm and social justice commentary is irrelevant, about how he's trumping simple business logic that a 1st year econ student would know.
@MrPurdy33 That young african american at 9:20... THAT is arguing. THAT is showing intelligence. Look at him listen and analyze. Makes me have hope for humanity... He doesn't even have an anonymous Guy Fawkes mask on.... then the white woman comes back in @ 10:40... smh - note how shes not there after she flames, but the young man is there still listening WELL after... I have no problem with protests, when supporters can argue validly. Many who think they support OWS unknowingly do it blindingly
@badpanda84 The difference between workers from China and India and the workers in the United States comes down to work ethic and willingness to receive a wage less than the current minimum wage. If the minimum wage were dropped, more citizens would be employed, the cost of products produced in America would drop (also making everyone's effective wage greater by dropping the cost of living). Americans want more for less, and there are billions in this world who are willing to work for less.
the guy at 6:05 is a fuckin idiot.... governments purpose is to protect life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness... something that slavery infringed upon, so it was the government's job to intervene.... the free market is not within their responsibilities, they need to get the fuck out...
@cool12328 Instead of calling OWS or anyone idiots we need to educate these people. Obviously, we have corporatism. They think they're protesting capitalism, but the reality is we don't have capitalism today. The media/liberals are spoon feeding people this idea that if we tax the rich all our problems go away, but the real problem is the gov spending and intervention in the markets, and the Fed causing inflation, which is why OWS is now occupying the white house & Fed. People are learning
@johnnyrivera710 "which is why OWS is now occupying the white house & Fed."
Really that is intersting -- so they are occupying the white house -- just out of interst I wonder if the secert service are bound by the same rules as the police..
@johnnyrivera710 The secert service could probably kill one of the protestors and then claim the protestor threathened the president ---- and they would probably get away with it.
@johnnyrivera710 agreed... but there will always be a top 1% unless you revert to socialism... and that's not us... we can't do that so goverment needs to step out of the markets. i agree
@cool12328 I agree, and it should be fair game for anyone who works hard to be able to afford decent living conditions without being slaves to debt. Let's face it, the current system has failed and we need true capitalism to create jobs. The gov can not create jobs. The 1% needs to get out of politics, and our gov needs to work on campaign finance reforms. Let's hope we get real change in 2012.
@cool12328 Yes, I supported Obama in 08, but we saw how that turned out. I did agree with the LRA bill he signed, but Obama's stimulus did not benefit the economy and he backed off his promise to end the Iraq war in 16 months. So, yes I now support Ron Paul. I'm also looking into Gary Johnson. How about you?
@johnnyrivera710 I actually support both Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney... I think either person would benefit the economy, and their both strong candidates. I don't really think Ron Paul is electable because of how far right he is... so I think we'll have to deal with either Romney or Gingrich until the next Reagan comes along.
@cool12328 I have to disagree. They both flip-flop. Maybe better economy, but same wars and foreign policy. And they may have good debating skills, but they won't change a thing in my opinion. Ron Paul is currently 2nd in Iowa, and surging in polls. I think he is the Thomas Jefferson of our time. Here's a good vid: watch?v=ohKz9OeiI0g, let me know what you think. And which one are you leaning towards most?
@johnnyrivera710 They do both flip-flop, but the bottom line is that Obama needs to be replaced in the White House. The only two people that have the ability to replace him in the upcoming election are, in my opinion, either Newt or Mitt. I'm leaning towards Mitt a little more just because, once again, I think he has the best shot to beat Obama, but I think Newt might be the better debater. With Iran and China posing as greater threats than they ever were, Ron would be a mistake
@johnnyrivera710 But.... I do love Ron Paul's willingness to defend the Constitution no matter what, and I think he should definitely remain in office to continue the work he's done so far, but as a Congressman. I love the video by the way.
@cool12328 I respect that. It's going to be a tough race. I think the early states will set the tone for who wins the nomination. And the video is powerful. It shows Paul's passion and commitment to the Constitution. To me, he would be a good national defense president due to his war experience. As for Newt, I think his numbers will drop and it will come down to Romney vs Paul for the nomination. Newt doesn't have a strong organization, and I don't think he is seen as a true conservative.
@johnnyrivera710 yea we'll just have to wait and see :) The left is going to do everything they can to smear whoever gets the nod because they can't run on their record... it's terrible
@cool12328 We will (: And definitely, they already released a video against Romney. I'm pretty sure they're going to attack Ron or Newt next. What do you think of this upcoming Trump debate?
@cool12328 Romney and Gingrich both want carbon taxes and socialized healthcare, so they're as bad, if not worse, than Obama. And this nonsense about "Ron Paul isn't electable" is a media talking point repeated over and over again enough times so that people actually believe it and are discouraged from voting for a true constitutionalist. It's a psyop.
Just look at what the Iowa governor said the other day. He basically said if Ron Paul wins Iowa, it doesn't count.
@cool12328 Even though some OWS are clueless there are some Ron Paul supporters who are educated on these issues. And without these Occupy movements who knows if we would be having this type of dialogue between poor and rich people. We need more of this type of dialogue so that the rich understand the poor, and the poor are educated on how the free market works, the role of government, and the role of the 1% in creating jobs.
This is the reason why this protest will never work -- no one know what they are protesting about -- if (at 18:00) they aren't anti-captalist then what the fuck are they protesting about.
@badpanda84 I think they're misinformed especially by liberals who blame the banks and the rich only & spread this misinformation so that we can tax the rich. Media has a major role in spreading this misinfo as well if you watch TV. What most of OWS is protesting is to get money out of politics and to prosecute the corrupt executives who received bonuses for causing the collapse. What some don't realize is that the government & the Fed played a behind the scenes role. Let us educate them
The problem is that as soon as you take away all regulations -- there are 2 billion people in china and india willing to work for close to minimum wage ( as its better than what they would get at a sweatshop) There is no shortage of labour -
So the first thing that would happen is that no one would hire Americans at all -- and anyone business that did would probably go bankrupt
@Radith87 It was pretty obvious at a lot of people joining the OWS movement are really ignorant of the fundamentals or history. The guy who placed the slavery card obviously need study history some more. I'm not even sure if the old lady is part of the 1 percent as she claims.
@mikerowphone This video doesn't receive over 85% likes for no reason. So what you going to do? Name calling everyone bullshit?
I stand what I say. I agree with Peter that the government had stop market regulation by probing up fail companies. And I agree with Ron Paul that government should truly allow market regulation to work.
@mikerowphone Well, name-calling me bullshit doesn't make you tough, it doesn't make you right. I restate my claim. There's no other better regulation than the market. It is obvious that you are actually do not understand the theory and fact. So you want the government to regulate huh? Search these 2 theories that are proven with real life empirical observation. Regulatory Capture Theory and Self interest Theory.
Therefore, government had to allow market regulation to work and stop bailing-s!!!
damn this guy is pissing me off his points are ridiculous, we did good in the 50's because the other major countries were devestated by world war 2 and what is the problem with government student loans? the only thing that would change is people would be forced to do high interest private loans
he is right. in the 1950's the u.s had lower taxes for businesses.
so, businesses thrived.
government is the problem he is correct. the government has caused corporations to get out of hand by playing favorites and bailing out some companies at random and giving some corporations more tax breaks than others.
that is what has caused the business market to become corrupt and less competitive.
@mikerowphone Well, You are right. I agree with you. Peter agree with you as well. All Peter and I want is to allow the market to regulate Banking and Financial sectors.
Look what the government had done in this recent years. Bailout after bailouts. This do not allow regulation from the market to work!! Bailout isn't capitalism. If capitalism is allow to work by the government, we don't have all these troubles today!!!
Government created slavery? I guess that makes, um, sense. After all, those poor southern plantation owners were probably enticed by low taxes on cotton, rice, and sugar. If the incentive wasn't provided by government, slavery never would have happened.
well, regarding the student loan statement. if, tuition wasn't so damn unaffordable to regular working class people, then national deficit would be nearly 50% based on student loans.
plus, everyone cannot go to college for free. let alone, try to pay for college on your own. you need money to acquire "anything" in this country period and the way the system is designed to work, doesn't benefit everyone. it's more tilted towards people who already have the means. some people get lucky though.
what do you think the goverment will want in return from the people if they did start giving hand outs to the people, mmm give up more of our civil liberties and rights,
these people just wont listen, they just want the goverment to take care of them. Listen to this man he is telling you what is wrong in this country, its not him thats controling us, and takeing are money, and making it harder for us to live its too much goverment involvement in are lives, with new laws, taxes, etc. do these ows people want more goverment in there lives giving them housing, healthcare, and evreything else for free?
Wow Peter Schiff is kinda clueless. Everyone contributes to the everyone elses wealth. When you start a business, we the taxpayers subsidizes your incorporations. When you buy a building to put your employees in, tax payers helped him pay for the maintenance of the building. Its water and sewage. This guy is not stupid. He is deceptive.
This problem has an easy answer that people just refuse to acknowledge. Stop letting the government take bribes from corporations. Stop giving any privileges to any business. When certain companies have regulations that is a privilege to other companies. By ending regulations, benefits, corporate welfare and other privileges then no business would have an unfair advantage.
They want the rich to work for 30 cents in the dollar to be ok, but yet if your anti - minimum wage, then your pro slavery??

An online wall street journal article points out why the "soak the rich" policies don't work, in fact they hurt the economy.Politicians in Annapolis created a millionaire tax bracket, raising the top marginal income-tax rate to 6.25%. One year later, one-third of the millionaires have disappeared from Maryland tax rolls. Instead of the coffers gaining the extra $106 million the politicians predicted, millionaires paid $100 million less in taxes than they did last year -- even at higher rates.

peter schiff is a self righteous fool. he makes generalisations about the people there. you all want low prices, look at you, your wearing clothes, you must like capitalism. fact is corperations and government own everybody!! i think that is obvious. the system doesnt work and is corrupt and people see that. it needs to change. peter schiff can try and justify why he likes capitalism and helps people but the system as it is, is broken and is unfair.

I know it's real easy to get pissed off at the protesters in this video because they wont listen to Schiff long enough to understand that he's trying to help them. When he says to "march on Washington, demand the end of the fed and get your freedoms back" it goes right over their heads. When he explains how the department of education is artificially inflating college tuition it goes right over their heads. So, instead of calling the protestors stupid or lazy... educate them if you can.

Does he even know why they were removed in the first place? Of course, it was out of concern of the capacity of working children to increase their capability.

@badpanda84 The difference between workers from China and India and the workers in the United States comes down to work ethic and willingness to receive a wage less than the current minimum wage. If the minimum wage were dropped, more citizens would be employed, the cost of products produced in America would drop (also making everyone's effective wage greater by dropping the cost of living). Americans want more for less, and there are billions in this world who are willing to work for less.

@johnnyrivera710 They do both flip-flop, but the bottom line is that Obama needs to be replaced in the White House.

With Iran and China posing as greater threats than they ever were, Ron would be a mistake

@cool12328 I respect that. It's going to be a tough race. I think the early states will set the tone for who wins the nomination. And the video is powerful. It shows Paul's passion and commitment to the Constitution. To me, he would be a good national defense president due to his war experience. As for Newt, I think his numbers will drop and it will come down to Romney vs Paul for the nomination. Newt doesn't have a strong organization, and I don't think he is seen as a true conservative.

Wow Peter Schiff is kinda clueless. Everyone contributes to the everyone elses wealth. When you start a business, we the taxpayers subsidizes your incorporations. When you buy a building to put your employees in, tax payers helped him pay for the maintenance of the building. Its water and sewage. This guy is not stupid. He is deceptive.

This is a perfect example of how there are no bad or greedy people in the system.
THE SYSTEM IS FLAWED!
All monetary systems are FLAWED. Regardless of political system.

This video can be summed up in two sentences:
Crowd: " I want everything in my life spoon fed to me, and I want you to pay for it"
Peter: "I'm already paying for it."

This problem has an easy answer that people just refuse to acknowledge. Stop letting the government take bribes from corporations. Stop giving any privileges to any business. When certain companies have regulations that is a privilege to other companies. By ending regulations, benefits, corporate welfare and other privileges then no business would have an unfair advantage.
