Financial Services Hearing on Coinage July 20 2010

[Adrenaline91387]

I enjoyed this immensely Thanks for sharing!

[pmcgraw13]

Ron paul is like, "Hey, this doesn't make any sense," and the guy is like, "uh, uh, uh, uh." Ron Paul did everything but come right out and say that it is part of a huge conspiracy.

[hcsuarnefeiT]

@pmcgraw13 conspiracy has a bad name. What about a group of people put their interest in front of governments interests. Money rules the World, technology is the benefit and humanity the price.

[richardxthripp]

It sounds like the U.S. govt. is going to have to start entering contracts with private industry to get their planets

[GONECRUISING72]

it doesn't matter the subject the man knows what he is talking about

[LiveFreeOrDieNow]

Ron Paul is my president.

[campeona5]

Buy PHYSICAL SILVER...end the fiat paper ponzi!! Inflation is a stealth tax on every working citizen!!

[msungs]

End the Fed! The Federal Reserve as Federal as Federal Express. They are going after the pennies. I predicted this when I learned that pennies that are made pre-1982 are over 95% copper. The Republic is burning. I see this video only has 14,000 views, meanwhile American Idol and Rap crap have millions. We have an uninformed/uneducated citizenry. End the Fed. Peter Schiff and Ron Paul for President 2012. I am glad I moved to Germany to get away from the "Owe"bama/Bernanke Regime.

[iannetta11]

Is paper, redeemable in NOTHING, money?

[WeThePeople012]

0:57 -- The guy sitting behind RP hears Dr. Paul and his eyebrows shoot up!!! LOL!

[tesskansas]

It was awful to see suc an empty chamber room. Awful.

Congressman Paul will go down in history as the Paul Revere of our money!.

[mrkangagoo]

rEVOLution

[siweltnek]

Very Interesting!

[nomoreserfs]

Lay off the pipe? I urge you to watch the film America:Freedom to Fascism. Then come back and tell me again to "lay off the pipe." Truth is that we are the collateral to the debt, this is why we have an income tax. Reasearch the Grace Commission where the income tax only goes to pay the interest on the debt, nothing else. I also urge you to read the book, "They Own It All Including You". Don't be so quick with the insults man. All I am doing is trying to inform you.

[Sinisterene]

Mel Watts must Go. Kick him out this Fall NC!

[lizardfirefighter110]

How is it possible to have a private company set up to coin money more efficiently than the government. If the government took a fraction of what it spends on the Iraq War - 28 billion dollars a month - and spent it on up grading our mints we would not have a problem. What a joke. Paul is being too nice.

[smekese]

fuck you ron paul.. your no different with the republicans.. you oppose to everything even when its for the greater good for this country...

[Amndmnt10]

@smekese And when the Republicans are in power, it's the Democrats who are opposed to everything. Haven't we all caught on to the pattern yet? However, Ron Paul is one who stands out from the crowd. He opposes anything that's unconstitutional or, as in this case, anything that private industry can do better than government, regardless of what party proposes it.

[AiRarkansas]

Ron Paul is the man...President 2012!!

[midwestcharm]

@AiRarkansas What is "greater good?". I would suspect you know what's best for society. How about we get a nut in charge who thinks "it's best for society" if we steal everyone's belongings and make them all the same?

[waynotway]

@midwestcharm I think you meant to say @smekese, right? because, gee, that person is out of line&just plain ignorant. Ron Paul has never been nor will he ever be like those profiteers & neocons. It's sad. For 30 yrs, they've been degenerating into blathering idiots because we let them, all the while Ron's been there warning us over & over. All he need do anymore is ask them to explain their own words OR coins, which they can't. They seem to have not much more vocabulary than smekese there.

[TheBrotherMouzone]

Who is that guy behind The Ron? Congress staff or just some random US citizen?

[JKSuccess1]

Thank You Ron Paul!

[cowboy1165]

There you have it folks. The government can't do it better then the market can.

[itsallaboutgz]

Lol at the guy behind Ron Paul.

[edisonoside]

The NWO army has stealthily invaded and one of their steps is to outsource ALL jobs and production..even our money is made overseas?? Trojan horse has come and made it's necessary changes it needs to weed the US down for their seed the New World Odor!

[tillman40]

If we follow Ron here...we may have to create some American jobs...wow...we cant do that..

[wang0fett]

lol the guy behind Dr. Ron Paul; i like his facial expressions. especially when he is talking about how much a penny would be worth back in the first decade of the 1900s..

[Krupification]

God love Dr. Paul!

[lb11rb]

[Apocalypse487]

@APRtunedAudi lol

[margoliesmedia]

7:15 lol. seems like they dont trust the government

[PoorMansPlato]

Ron Paul is an example of the stark difference between consummate politicians and their lack of common sense, and what we actually need in government these days!

He is a genuine light shining in the darkness of constitutional ignorance we call American government.

[RonPaulWI]

Why is it always the Big 3: (GM, Ford, Chrysler), (Google, MSN, Yahoo) and big 3 mints!!!

[Bestmountjoy]

@RonPaulWI

Excellent point!

A USSA-fascist neocheating tactic?

The 3 'choices' Yanks are typically offered by Wall St 'casinos' allows 85% of productive folk to be preyed upon by Religio-Politico-Media lackey-types (3!) .

Habitualized, hypnotized, deaf, & blind to the cosmic value of competition, the USSA's trained seals are now parachute-less.

Red Canaduh is not such a noisy rabble.

Decades ago Jesuit trainers sold us out to socialist monopolies.

"Barq-barq Komrade", from Nova Scotialism

[ysinitsky]

Motorized vehicles have certain disadvantages. But do you think it is possible or even desirable to return to horse-drawn carriages? Paper money and especially e-money are not ideal either. Are you talking about resurrecting commodity money? It is as practical as running a stage coach service between New York and Athens

[Syphalis1]

@ysinitsky He's talking about have money backed by something other than "Faith in Government".

ie. Fiat money. This allows the The Fed to endlessly print money creating a constant stream of inflation which acts as a tax mostly hurting the lower and middle class. Keynesians try to argue somehow that inflation is good. But wouldn't logic dictate that if your economy is strong and doing well, the value of your money should increase, not drop 98% since the Feds creation 100 years ago.

[FreedomsReigning]

Why does the guy sitting behind Ron remind me of John Wilkes Booth...

Security breach! Swarm! Swarm! Swarm!

[yakyakyak69]

A planchet is a round metal disk that is ready to be struck as a coin. An older word for planchet is flan. They are also referred to as blanks.

The US Gov't has traded all of our gold to the Federal Reserve Bank in exchange for fiat Debt Currency created out of thin air.

The US Gov''t can't make silver or gold coin blanks because the US Gov't has no gold left. We're BANKRUPT!

[yakyakyak69]

Watch the film: "Money as Debt" on YouTube

Then defend the Constitution and liberty against ALL domestic Congressional enemies who voted against a FULL audit of the Federal Reserve Bank.

[cresidue]

Ron Paul is a great man, in good company with the Founding Fathers!

[Aracuru]

RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT 2012!!! HE HAS MY VOTE - he is truly the last hope this nation has to survive.

[KingOfTheWorld10x]

The world is a better place with Ron Paul!! :)

[mattamiller]

GUYS EYES AT 00:57

[LibertyOrBust]

We couldn't maintain the zinc standard.... hahahaha. Love RP.

[JETZcorp]

You never hear anyone except Ron Paul talk about "Paper Money." I guess no one else gets it.

[cacapoopoo2327]

Anybody know who the guy behind Ron is?

[boswellchrome]

AT 5:00 we once had these things but they were sold to china

[eliden]

even if we go back to gold, we still end up paying taxes with our gold. so we will never really ever keep what we believe to own such as property.

[nomoreserfs]

@eliden Actually, if the Federal Reserve were done away with the Income Tax would disappear also. Gold and silver would then be property of who ever holds it and not some central bank, so there in essence would not be a tax since the currency would be interest free.

[LibertyOrBust]

@nomoreserfs Sorry guy, there could still be an income tax. Lay off the pipe.

[Apocalypse487]

The guy behind Ron Paul has some type of death stare.

[enjoiskaterguy]

What an enlightening video. Ron seemed to be having fun pointing out their seemingly elementary business flaws and how free markets are the answer, not government monopolies.......what's the matter panel, cat got your tongue?

[PhatPhing]

The sight of Mel Watt makes me ill.

Would the great people of NC 12th District do the country a favor and toss this tool on the unemployment line in November?

...Please.

[BLINDSIGHT8]

He would make a great President. "Most Honest man in Washington", pretty good nick name to have.

[sirya911]

@NewChristianSoldiers NWO Shill. Next time trying being a little more creative.

[jnthnbush]

@sirya911 everyone is a shill to you who doesn't agree with you.

[tenagliac]

Too big to make our own planchets ? I thought they should be easier and cheaper because they'd have economies of scale. It worries me that it seems like essential minting technologies are being lost. Might this be because things are so extensively outsourced that there is no more American knowledge of this lost art.

[cowboy1165]

@tenagliac I don't think it's a lost art. Many private American mints still coin today. Northwest Territories Mint and APMEX for example.

[KenrayWilliams]

why isn't this guy president already?

[sirya911]

watch the "The Secret of Oz" by Bill Still. I would like to see Ron Paul debating Bill Still

[tirmen8er]

@sirya911...

the secret of oz sucks. hes right about the fed, but his solution is basically to keep it but nationalize it, what a joke!

[sirya911]

@tirmen8er Well going back to Gold is no solution either. I guess the best thing would be to get rid of the legal tender laws and let the markets decide. I still think Bill Still solution is the best one thus far. Right now we have both debt and inflation. I would rather just deal with Inflation and I'm sure we can put measures in place to combat over inflating the currency.

[greenback001]

@sirya911 <<<<<<<<<<<<WRONG

.

The solution is a basket of precious metas backing the US Dollar. This way the everyday man has an opportunity to purchase cheaper metals and keep his hard earned savings safe from inflation. With it he can build financial security. Consequently the nation's middle class will grow larger and more stable as opposed to now when it is shrinking and turning chaotic and dangerous. Starvation in the USA.

[cowboy1165]

@sirya911 You put that much time into Bill Still, and you can't even bother to read Ron Paul and Lewis Lehrman's book The Case for Gold? He's not just shooting from the hip ya know.

[EndTheFedRes]

The ONLY presidential candidate who didn't need an economic advisory team.  Ron Paul 2012!

[psonit]

if no one smells or hears the lise from these people "not ron paul" there blind

[CurtHowland]

The committee chairman as the video opens rolls his eyes, "Oh god, it's RP again, and I can't shut him up. At least he only gets two minutes, maybe I can get a cup of coffee or something..."

[sniper6081]

That guy behind Ron Paul is certainly quite engaged in what he has to say.

[cowboy1165]

@sniper6081 Hell, it looks like the guy behind Ron Paul just found out his water broke.

[Firebirrd85]

That guy with the grey hair sitting behind ron paul - He looks Jewish. Is he? lol silly Zionist.

[Firebirrd85]

I like how Ron Paul always talks about the FREE market. Say no to Wall Street and YES to Main Street.

[SuperJoeAnonymous]

I own a tool & die shop. I could build a die, buy a press...and be stamping out planchets in probably about 2-3 months....it's easy.

The answers they are giving Paul are complete bullshit.

[bluepastel]

0:50 LOL @ guy dozing off behind Ron Paul,

Dr. Paul says 1¢ in 1910 = 57¢ today

the guy's like ' Say WHAT!? '

[scalp340]

there is my man. i have a mug and ashtray full of quarters. pennies, nickles and dimes are nowhere to be found (other then a few in my cup holder) Dr paul, are you watching me? where is your spy camera? ok, you just must be that good....recognize!

[jjason1985]

Down with Mel Watt. He is in one of the most gerrymandered districts in the US, and he is nothing but a scumbag.

[PrudenceWright]

Mel Watt is an ass and a shill for the banksters. Shuffle those papers with that smirk on your face, you traitor. We all know you are corrupt.

[eddiefreddie39]

How sad is this ? Something fishy going on when we won't even make our own coins. I yield back.

[StopFear]

One more LoL for guy behind Ron Paul at 7:20, let's find out who it is!

[StopFear]

I think Ron Paul is going to win in 2012. I also like the fact that he is a practicing Christian.

[NCIcaucus]

@StopFear Ron Paul is the most honest man in DC...the ONLY honest man in DC with enough know how to use it to the advantage of the people.

[swiftysmithuk]

Genius, pure genius!

The way he gets everyone to face the fundamental problem that blights us all...

Legalised economic intervention!!!!

[wcarlpdrysdale]

???: They cant make a coin?

May be the tungsten salted gold doesn't work well for that?

Audit the Fort Knox holdings of the American peoples gold held by the FED!

[helpendthefed]

Ron Paul 2012!!

[WadabawSleeve]

the heck is a planchet ?!

[ZeLVaR]

@WadabawSleeve It's a wafer of metal, an unstamped coin...a blank...

[darkhorse007]

@WadabawSleeve planchet is the round metal right before its struck

[Voy2378]

@WadabawSleeve

Definition: A planchet is a prepared disc-shaped metal blank onto which the devices of a coin image are struck or pressed.

[loserx69]

"Other private entities"....LOL

[sharinganclan213]

they need to add more tags to ths vid so people searhing for vds have a better hane to come across this vid.

[bugsycline]

@sharinganclan213 adding tags no longer works on youtube, youtube chooses who gets seen and who is invisible.

[luomio]

@bugsycline Is there an alternative to YouTube?

[PoorMansPlato]

"We cannot maintain the Zinc standard" True! True! True! The paper we call currency isn't worth the time and labor to print it! and it does not make good toilet paper either!

[cowboy1165]

@PoorMansPlato That's not true, mine works very well and I like to have Bernanke's face toward the center...What, you don't have a zillion dollar bill. Don't worry we all will soon.

[PoorMansPlato]

Ron Paul For President! End the Federal Reserve!

[PoorMansPlato]

Go get'emt Ron Paul!
