Max Keiser on Face Off - Criminal Banking Syndicates - 06 August 2009 (1/2)

[crumcon]

Harold, his wife and his kid thumbs down this video

[Haasenpad]

Professor of Finance? THE GUY KNOWS NOTHING, and if he knows he gets enough money to tell LIES! What a looser....

[shillyshallyz]

LET'S KILL SOMEONE ALREADY...

[FrenchRuby]

Selling worthless bonds and betting against your customers is nothing to do with the traders? It wouldn't have been a problem if the banks had had better capitalisation (more money) and better liquidity (more money)? WTF is this guy a Professor of?

[TheTopBloke]

This guy Harold is an idiot.

[PositiveMoneyUK]

Our monetary system is based on credit or debt, and without constantly continuing issuance of debt, the whole thing falls apart. Our system of ‘fractional reserve banking’ gives commercial banks a licence to literally create money out of thin air. Fractional reserve banking is the cause of spiralling debt.

The biggest public campaign has started to abolish fractional reserve system. Visit the POSITIVE MONEY website and support the campaign...and spread the word!

[justbreatheify]

I want to jump kick max's failing opposition in the neck!

[steps4life2]

This is why I don't trust some teachers. They have zero experience with the real world. They say things like "No fraud because of extremely competitive environment"

But that's how bankers got Moody's and SandP to give out favorable ratings on crap CDOs. When you're incentivized to cheat in a competitive environment (like the MLB and steroids), you cheat. Plus, by allowing the financial sectors to incentivize salaries. They are draining the brilliant youth to go into finance instead of science.

[djamorpheus]

@steps4life2 deregulation, neo-liberalization, and capitalism (profit motive). All things which caused this awful mess.

[pedro270569]

great Max Keiser

[Mopar21277]

Did Max really say they want to have their salad tossed?! Good references to controlled demolition... tear em up Maximus!

[clitmint]

Its no wonder Max has his own show on RT, this guy is UNSTOPPABLE.

[irishgeal1]

lmao, the french guy is a professor of finance, lmao, a sewage worker dos not deal out as much shit as the professor.

[VENGEVENGE]

max you are being to kind to these psychopaths.......you should go underground....curse these assholes as your last jesture then....underground.....you are part of the revolution.......curse bitch you know they full of shit.....forget about beeing respected by pigs....do you hear me feel me.......

[BeholdZeus]

Sorry, why don't we want to regulate banker's bonuses at the top end of the scale? I can't quite see what this delusional man is talking about. Thank heavens Max is there to put him in his place. Another one bites the dust.

[Valdris1987]

He dares to say to Max "No no no, it's a confusion" ahah what a dumbass

[ranlistudent]

Fuck this INSEAD shithead fucking ass-kissing brainless Phd bearing fuckin' fucktard ! Brainless zombies like these should be taken to the slaughter house and get their fucking head chopped off ! Fucking cocksucker working for the fucking control-maniac jews

[aviomaster]

USA created 1929 crisis ... USA created 2008 economic downturn ...

USA fuck OFF ...

[MrLaughandgrowfat]

someone give harold a breathing aparatus, he's suffocating on his own BS.

[jamiefhr]

whats with his breathing man... copd?

[gosciu555]

yeah but the CEO's got the stock options.

[christo930]

The executives shouldn't be allowed to own or trade the stock of the firm they run (or parent or subsidiary companies). Stock options and payment in stock and other gimmicks give a huge personal stake in the value of the stock or dividend payouts and is a huge conflict of interest.

I think they should get paid by the performance of the company, measured over long periods of time and should not be connected to the value of the stock or the dividend (if it has a dividend).

[mohamie]

OMG I LOVE THIS GUY!!!!!!!!

[warbuff1]

And guys like Hau are teaching economics in universities. What can anyone expect of students indoctrinated by people like him?

[DrTimWhatley]

This Harald Hau guy seems to have every accent imaginable.

[glitched731]

Yeah, as if the words themselves he's spewing forth weren't fraudulent enough ;-)

[christophercredit]

God bless you bro. Max. Hey, there ain't nothin' like da truth.Any naysayers out there? Well...strictly scientifically speaking, when light and dark are mixed together-as they now are on earth, and that in an extraordinarily unprecedented manner, LIGHT WILL PREVAIL!. The forces for darkness should SURRENDER IMMEDIATELY! REPENT OR PERISH! The "Sheep and the goats" (Jesus) will soon be separated, the righteous, the meek shall inherit this earths' surface. "The renewal of all things" is imminent.

[Richardcuz420]

did he say toss their salad?

[glitched731]

LOL, that took me a little by surprise too!!! Keiser rules!!!

[Easydollars]

The reason why car salesmen are scumbags is because they dont tell you that the car they sell you is never really your car. Its owned by the government. So they carry this guilt complex with them all their lives. Prove me wrong???

[jobedied]

Yea it,s wrong to blame the car salesmen for selling you a lemon. It is the dealers fault. My butt car salesmen know when they are selling you a junker . As a teenager I worked for a group that sold used cars they know what is junk . Max owned this guy, this guy's brain is stuck up his bosses back side.

[louis12346]

investment fraud exposed should receive 2 % of booty

[bigzird]

There is an intelligent argument to be made that the large banks have undue influence on politicians and need better regulation, but Max Kaiser did NOT make it.

For those of you who think Kaiser has useful things to say I suggest you read more balanced critics of the system (i.e., Paul Krugman) than this hysterical conspiracy theorist.

[noojka]

If the system is tilted toward the wealthy at the expense of the poor then a courageous critic is more useful than a "balanced" one.

[Scrambler1919]

Wow someone speaking the truth for a change!

Good work Max!

[tube02148]

you pay thousands of dollar to be educated by this professor of finance. Insead, a big name in MBAs.

onced you graduated, by luck you'll be working for Goldman Sachs and the likes. how funny is this.. the professor defending circle.

[globalbankfraud]

Give it to *em Max. Brain dead academics.

Madoff*s stolen ponzi money was going to Israel.

[cramlow1]

Im really surprised they even let max on tv anymore... he is just too honest for these people

[sieniawska]

Herald is such a d&#!!

[bnfox]

you've been punked!!!!!

[freedomfighterone]

Harald is a liar!

[Brainman94]

Max walks all over the opposition as usual - on ya maxie!

[buddcinder]

If we allow banks to issue currency then the corporations that grow up around them will leave the people poor and homeless on the land their fathers con quered.

- some old guy somewhere.

[Tressco]

"When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes.

Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain."

- Napoleon Bonaparte

[Tressco]

"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."

- Henry Ford

"The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks."

- Lord Acton

[cheekieweekie]

the thief apologist is a bit slow - tragic the stupidity of modern media.

[WarrenERock]

The bank (Goldman Sachs) has raised the possibility that there is a danger that somebody who knew how to use this program could use it to manipulate markets in unfair ways, Facciponti said, according to a recording of the hearing made public yesterday. The copy in Germany is still out there, and we at this time do not know who else has access to it. WHAT WAS GOLDMAN SACHS DOING WITH THE CODES?

[WarrenERock]

Ferdinand Marcos would be green with envy at the scale of the plunder.

[WarrenERock]

As a result of the war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed....God grant that my suspicions may prove groundless. Letter from Lincoln to Col. William F. Elkins, Nov. 21, 1864

[WarrenERock]

Banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies.

THOMAS JEFFERSON

[TruthCode]

What a slimy-shill-apologist-fuck that Hau is. I wouldn't even waste my puke on his cunty little smirking face...though it thoroughly deserves it.

[311ftw]

he also looks like a playa.

fukc this political correct shill.

he looked like a fool.

[jibbi4one]

WOW!! Max Keiser has come out guns blazing lately. What? Is he leaning toward Austrian School of Econ.?

[Scrap5000]

Marx Keiser is a genious, and she PWNED that chiusche!

[jessewaugh]

This is the most important financial debate I have EVER seen. Max you have made yourself the spearhead. If you keep your head as level as this - and don't get cocky - you're going to pierce the veil.

Executive bonuses are NOTHING in comparison to the economic genocide that is being committed in every country simultaneously.

It makes my stomach drop to know that someone as apparently intelligent as the man debating Max can be that gullible - or corrupt.

[CarryANationIII]

Check out who was allowed to use Naked Short Selling after the "ban" - Goldman Sachs for one (obviously) but the others are just as telling.

[darkartproductions]

The way Keiser begins this interview is friggin' priceless. I could watch it over and over again!

[Drumvain]

Max Is the fucking Man!!

[Drumvain]

ThanksMax for shutting up this cointel-pro operative.

[kdcruz75]

in all their literature..they talk about the efficiency of the market ...that is their main assumption ....

they're in their ivory towers built for them by the powers that be, selling the illusion to the public..

efficiency of the market is blatantly false and tier whole science is based on that.

they're not fools they are aware of this false assumption. 'just look at the expression on the fools face when max makes the apt analogy of traders being analogous to hitmen of a criminal

[PlsBeaSmart]

Way to go Max! As I kept watching, I could not help but smile. First time I actually REALLY smiled in awhile. Don't let up and don't let them try to discredit your observations. THANKS!!!!

[djdixxx]

Go MAX!!

Harald Hau's stomach is full of investment bankers' sperm.

[DodgeVip3r]

The moronic professor arguing with Max is either a financial institute shill or he just realised thats all the crap hes been taught means nothing in the real world as the bond market is controlled by an oligarchy.

[ivangrozny27]

I say well done to the France24 for having Max on the show regularly. His predictions & general ideas on the state of the US & European economies is second to none yet the cowardly mainstream media in London & New York are too frightened to have him on to educate the masses.

Vive la France.

[prescottbill]

They dumped their toxic crap loans in the FED outhouse. It's the same place the Treasury dept. is dumping it's bad paper, Obamabonds. If they ever audit the FED, the auditors will have to wear hazmat suits. Trillions of non-performing assets dumped on the FED where profit/loss isn't an issue. Where the magic money computer churns out worthless electronic "dollars" for worthless paper debt. In the end, only real assets will have value.

[mrzack888]

if you listen closely, Max is using NLP. he's comparing 8/9 with 9/11 then says the words "demolition". tricky tricky.

[dabruin2]

You don't have to listen that closely. It's quite transparent what Keiser is doing. It is brilliant and ballsy nonetheless.

[momentinpassing]

That isn't NLP. NLP is when you make associations, typically across several sensory channels, where there would normally be none, so that an associative response can be triggered later. It also demands the willful participation of the recipient who engages in highly focused visualization or a great deal of repetition. What Max is doing is making a valid analogy.

[mrzack888]

well, you just described exactly the type of strategy Max was using. NLP is used in many forms, and Max was using one of them with his words.

[gerasmus]

If the politicians let the banksters fail then we wouldn't have had an outcry about bonuses.

YOU must take action: Write to your member of parliament (and ask your family & friends to do so as well) to let them say no to bailouts, otherwise this madness will continue until we are really really bankrupt (aren't Western Governments already ?).

[aegisgfx]

This guy sounds a bit alarmist, I'm not saying he is wrong but he comes off like a bit of a crackpot pandering to the masses.

[NicosMind]

Nah Max knows his shit. You should see him in his own show "On the Edge". Hes much calmer there even smiling and laughing.

Also search for Rolling Stone magazines story called "Goldman Sachs the Great American Bubble Machine"

Theres a 5 page story and a link to the full 7 page story. Max aint the only one saying what hes saying.

Also search out books by Austrian economists. Like The Case Against the Fed by Murry Rothbard. If you look at it from a nonbias economic view youll see why.

[EspartanoRasta]

ohhhh Poor little share holders and executives....

ohhh they need more money, we all have to understand...

criminals does not know how to love like us cattle

they need a lot of money to feel good about themselves... its sad imagine they want to regulate them... what would Rush Limbaugh will say? it outrageous

[EspartanoRasta]

Aguante Max!!!!

This rotten world needs more people like you!!!!

destroy that prep sellout red tie ^&%*%^&%

[OghamTheBold]

Gold is an arse - as I think Shakespeare put it

[30percentplusreturns]

50 or 100 years from now, the world will be laughing at everyone for not holding their wealth in gold or silver, but in worthless paper assets. The generations to come will be baffled as to why we didnt use gold but accepted worthless paper. Our generation isnt used to gold, but gold and silver has been money since the beginning of time basically. Gold will revalue itself up to match the amount of dollars in circulation. It always does and always will.

[NicosMind]

I hope the world is laughing at us. But are they laughing at Zimbanwae for being a Fait currency? Theyre laughing at how much theyve printed all the while saying "I wonder if we can do a better job" But the most famous case was the Roman empire. No ones seem to learn the lessons of dangerous examples be it Weimar or Yuan Dynasty. They all seem to think theyll be the first to print masses of money with no ill effects!!

[RightBrainSane]

i like the host of this show... he knows Max is right and lets him run wild. not like the idiots on american tv with peter schiff.

[madhuradi]

boy ! this guy is a professor!

Economics professor with ZEEEEEro knowledge about sociology

Something like the scientists who are making atom bombs around the world!

Oh no, how are they responsible? they are just doing their job!

[fal2grace]

"controlled demolition of the global banking system" ... Exactly! All coordinated.

[MustacheVerra]

Perfect!

[campeona5]

The traders make short term millions at the expense of the real economy! game over.

[bbnemesis123]

WTH...Obama wants a salary cap as a BS publicity stunt. Obama has bonus loopholes that can be any amount. An executive can make a $100K salary cap for a year and get a $100M bonus for that year also. What is the point of a salary cap when a bonus loophole of any amount can be given? Just like Max says, "It's a farce."

[Mathannix]

Schiff for Senate!

[vinny1010]

And Keiser for US Treasury Secretary! :)

Good luck to Schiff if he runs

[dankeewolnir4042]

toss their salad!!! lol only max, crazy bastard... but right as usual

[BankofSpirit]

phd = Fudd aka Elmer, if phd was a word, it would be Fudd, cartoon/make-believe. any who can't learn on their own ultimately will be pawns or peons. The economy is a mechanism, transfers spirit/wealth from fools, extends reward of others life to those who eat their own & others. Any preparing in their schools (school is for fish) to get work w/i their corrupt fiat system will be debt slave or at best if they're good lil Fudds, becomes their pets, elitist owned puppet, go from fool to tool.

[dweber66]

as usual, Max is 100% spot-on correct and schools all these scholarly professor dipshits with no real-world experience.

[dweber66]

Harald is clearly a Nazi and got owned by my man Max. Go Max Go!

[landsolo]

I dont know where they find people to debate Maximus, he has always been on the money.

Did he really say that "BNP wants us all to toss their salad"???

Trading in dog poop futures!

Hilarious, you are a champion Max!

Correct as usual.

[dinkolino2]

"show me a case f market manipulation" .. what an idiot

[iammci]

Max really knows his stuff. There's nothing better than him going off on these people but then backs it up with substance. Anyone else might be considered a nut, but he's got an excellence response for nearly every point or counterpoint.

Good stuff.

[dinkolino2]

tomorrow the money bomb for peter schiff

[overseachininadoll]

Shareholders' rights? My employer hire a financial firm to handle our mandatory retirement money. We don't even know where our retirement money is put in. Most average people work all day they don't they can't they don't have the time to worry about where their retirement (which like social security) goes because it's suppose 100% save. Now it turns out their money is in the casino become the chips for the fat cats.

[overseachininadoll]

Wall Street have not much to do during the down turn so they speculating gamble wildly? Where is Mao? These people should be send down to the labor champ, learn what truly hard work means. Learn what survive means.

Wall Street - license to steal.

[mike6459]

professors are so removed from society and they pull the scholastic line so they can teach future financial terrorists

[doobsta]

This jerkoff is trying to pretend nothing is wrong...of course he is...He is trying to keep the game going.

Nothing new here....except the fact that max is getting airtime with these dipshits.

Get em MAXY!

[jaba987]

Why is Max Keiser the only who speaks like a normal person.

[takforalt]

Make them eat the dog poop--Great work Max!!!

[Finnbar01]

'Mere polictical statements that have no scientific backgorund whatsoever'.

What the hell is he on about???

[brodudemonkey]

why do they always put "professors" in the battle,lol, I used to be a trader and I was like wow that guy is ***.

[PalinRepublic]

Don't argue with Max unless you want to get schooled.

[dimon108]

it is not a surprise that we are so in deep shit, because people like that "professor" allow to teach! i know a lot of people like him in the academia.

[alphaknave]

Man that German guy's a little naive there

[splintercell99]

lying to protect his own interest.

Professors destroy education, people remain naive

[mrzack888]

that guy with the glasses is looking at the world through rosy uhm....glasses.

[andrewebisu]

Goofball alert: Two dudes with glasses

[calumcoburn]

When will this channel get a half-witted guest to duel with Max?

[nanciqwerty]

Only Max can sum-up so succinctly:-

"BNP wants us all to basically 'toss their salad' "

We love Max !

[QIQrrr]

End the fed. It's not rocket science.

[kimpunkrock]

Dude with glasses is clearly uncomfortable with the truth, look at his body language.

[dimaniak]

max keiser is gay judging from his body language

[dinkolino2]

you wish? :)

[kimpunkrock]

Dog poop stock....hahahaha..brilliant Max!

[motonegros]

Max tore off his head and shit down his windpipe!

[Renegen1]

Why do they keep pitting a stupid business professor who clearly gets money from banks recruiting his school against Max?

[ivangrozny27]

they do it for balance so we can get both sides of the story. Thats what the media's job is.

[Renegen1]

There's a difference between balanced and biased...

[momentinpassing]

I think Harold did a great job lying. It isn't easy. He misdirected, denied realities that audience members can then pretend aren't real, and essentially labeled Max as mentally ill. That's about all one can ask a liar to do.

[TheTopBloke]

@momentinpassing but...

[soulharvest2012]

Some Questions:

1) Do we even need a central bank?

2) Do we need globalization?

3) Do we need an oligarchical superclass ruling our society?

4) Do we need to be bled dry like dogs infested with these oligarchical tick parasites?

5) Do we need a paristical banker overclass like Goldman Sachs stealing from us on a daily basis?

6) Do we need to be bled dry by bankster oligarchs who grow fat in the Hamptons while we lose our jobs and homes and starve and die?

Fuck No is the answer!

[starfireucsd]

"Commoditize Dog Poop"

LOL

that's a classic.... maybe they should commoditize my jeez too..... Go Max, Go!!!

[fgiugliymop]

to the gallows

[qminusis]

Hang the banksters !!!

[snappa52]

toss their salad? am i the only one who caught that?lol

[stuntpea]

WOW!

That was good!

[ejbh3160]

5:55 ... "we shouldn't have rules on salary.. we have the minimum wage... we don't want to replicate that at the top"

WHY THE HELL NOT??

It would make just as much sense to regulate those who earn OBSCENE amounts of money at the top, as to regulate to ensure those who are poor at the bottom get a basic minimum & aren't exploited by the likes of shoes & jeans manufacturers in Asia!

For a start it would leave more money in the pot to pay better wages at the 'bottom'.

End greed & you end poverty.

[mercuryrazvedka]

scum bag confronted with his crimes, deny deny deny.

Creep in the glasses schooled with his first ethics/leagal lesson, SHOCK HORROR!!!

Well done MAX!

[tonyscot1]

Bravo Max!!!

Keep keeping it real.

[szol2005]

Max +1

DumB A* Fool -1

I really dont believe that guy is able to even paint a wall.....

The markets are clearly being manipulated, this is fraud, even if you think up a really fancy name for your scheme so other dumb A* fools buy it.

[zappyhod]

Get stuck into em Max !

[stuartambient]

first :)

[elucidative]

Why are these bankers not in jail? I guess the cops are stupid, they throw a poor pothead in jail but don't get the guy stealing off the economy with market manipulation, Max is right on again, but that froggy needs a slap.

[MengersDisciple]

Max - should have just read out the assistant US prosecutor's statement to the federal court: "In the wrong hands this code can be used to manipulate markets"

[heal2012]

brilliant lingo Max..

[DirtyHarry000]

Does the guy with the glasses have breath that smells like anus?
