Fast money's Dylan Ratigan dispute with Bert Ely 2009.01.06

[StephenABBbbBBB]

Does'nt it make sense to favour a "certain type of lender"?,i.e. the ones who are more likely to be able to pay back the money they borrowed??.

The alternative would be to continue to lend to the high risk borrower as they did in the past,which in turn leads to the same mess we're all in now through default.

I have never studied economics in my life,it seems to me that 50 % of the people who did were hoodwinked by the other 50%,or is it more accurate to say 95% by a very astute 5%?.

the great theme from the great 70's tv show, 'WELCOME BACK KOTTER," is truly appropriate for dylan ratigan's return to his own show on MSNBC,,,,,,,,,,,welcome back Dylan!

[tclapham1]

Apparently we live in a society where actually answering the question that was posed to you on national TV is optional. I expect such dodging and weaving from politicians. Now we're seeing it from financial pundits and commentators. I hope Ely was banned for life from CNBC for this pathetic display.

[garyowen4ever]

seek out dylan's GOLDSEEK RADIO INTERVIEW OF LAST WEEK,,,,,,,it was one glorious "LAST STAND."

When the government prints money, it is debasing the money of private individuals, which is equivalent to taking money.

Even if the government gets the money back, it was never the governments money to begin with. It's theft.

you must be one those college professors who has never seen a trading floor. Step into the real world.

What is going ON.

[NicosMind]

I wish we had more shows and channels dedicated to the economy and business in the UK. It sucks that we've got next to nothing!

[CheeseBoy86]

All of these shows isn't necessarily a good thing... It is certainly good to know what is going on, but with 300 professionals saying one thing (clearly an opinion) and the other 300 saying another, it is very confusing to watchers...

[NicosMind]

Yeah but not if you know econmoics. Ive started studying thanks to people like Peter Schiff and Ron Paul. Ive also subscribed to channels that plays vids like that.

Im sure its confusing to listeners but thats unfortunate, and considering alot of professionals know bad things are coming and its their job to say otherwise. Ive heard Jim Rogers talking about this refering to a bank manager that came onto one of these shows one time!

What i say to my friends is "Who are you gonna trust? cont.

[NicosMind]

The people who predicted the crash or people like Gordon Brown who said 'We've ended boom and bust'"

After all Gordon Dung sold 400 tonnes of the UK's gold when it was the cheapest its been for 20 years, it was 200 dollars and ounce and went up to 1000.

Lol i just heard the interview say who are we gonna listen to :S

Anyway check out "Peter Schiff was right" video. Also Austrian Economics :)

[Tasadaru]

Humanity's worse enemy is not a dictator or some government, it's the people who control one of the basic needs for all societies: money. Those who control the money of nations controls the world. The practice of fractional reserve banking with fiat money must come to an end. We should see prosperity again when we come back to a gold and silver standard.

I am not a CNBC fan but there are impromptu interviews with Dylan on Youtube where someone stopped him on the street and appears to have much different views off camera than what he is required to portray on tv. This is a rare glimpse of his honest beliefs, thanks for the vid.

[2TheDeath]

God these shows are so obnoxious. Why does he have to shout into the mic?

CNBC is good only to know what not to do in the markets.

[peacespeech]

You're right, I always have to turn volume down when this shows starts :>

Maybe this is some "media trick" or they have to fire their mixer console operator.

[BlueSkies360]

wow, what happened to CNBC? They are starting to make sense

[SwobyJ]

They're losing money is all.
