"It's amazing to me, when the chips are down, how few people stand up for capitalism."

Can we dig up Rothbard and clone him? He seems like the coolest guy ever. I never got to hear him speak because he died a couple of months after I was born.

[Hashishin13]

@capitalist4life There are recordings of him on youtube.

I'm going to comment before I finish the video which might be a mistake. I believe that the dollar and possibly other currencies will fall rapidly in value which would make gold a solid choice for an investment. However I think that Americans have overreacted and that the current gold market is just another bubble.

[capitalist4life]

@jimbo525SE Get some silver, platinum, or palladium if you think gold is in a bubble. They've run up too, but they are even farther from the bubble stage.

[jimbo525SE]

@capitalist4life Solid advice.

[CytherLynx]

@jimbo525SE gold will reach $5000 within a few years.

[pratiktalole]

what does he mean by 'coordinate production across time' as a function of interest rate

[LibertyWins2012]

@pratiktalole Interest rates help determine how much long-term production will take place and how much short--term production. Longer-term projects, because they are more interest-rate sensitive, are disproportionately stimulated by low interest rates.

"Bastard"

Rothbard is too awesome.

[themagus187]

LOL! Murray Rothbard was such a badass mother fucker. He wrote "bastard!" in his own copy of the pamphlet. HAHAHAHHAA, that's so awesome!

[Estevinyo]

bastard!

[slimeyrock2]

Lol. That was hilarious

[Jaycephus01]

"Separation of Bank and State"

Brilliant.

[maskedphrogg]

@Jaycephus01

I patiently awaited for the phrase. Only the concept came.

You nailed it!

Bumper Sticker politicking anyone?

Put me down for 100 stickers. One for my personal use and 99 for ... ummm... donations and resale

Austrian Economics!

[AndyMH182]

YEA!!!!

[harryogre]

If you like Thomas E. Woods Jr., there's tons of stuff by him over at Cato(dot)Org. A bunch of MP3's and stuff.

Of course there's also tons of stuff by Woods over at Mises(dot)org as well.

[tewj57]

I don't think there's too much Woods at Cato, but there's plenty at Mises.

i discovered it thru Peter Schiff butid listen to loads of Ron Paul speaking before. Now ive got both of Peters books and Economics in One Lesson from the Mises Institute!

[jasrid04]

I love the quotation you state just before 21 minutes. That is exactly what they are doing right now. People are looking for someone to blame and will blame those they previously didn't like (rich people or Walstreet).

[greywolf4744]

great lecture for those of us who only found out about austrian theory during ron paul's run.  THANKS
