Just our of curiosity: Is this recorded at Chomsky's home?

[copym3]

@gunnerfan87 no! i think its from a bookshop but i forget the name and where it was. aTb A

[BbdHome]

where is the part about local currency? does chomsky dismiss this idea also?

@JohnsonPollock also grab the audio from the mic in front of him. Not so hard to run it into a laptop, do audio capture there, and connect the speaker to the laptop output.

VIDEO 101: Take your hands off the camera. Place the camera on a tripod or other stationary object before the lecture begins, make sure the framing and sound levels are good, and then go sit down. Not necessary to keep noisily manipulating the camera every minute for three hours straight, unless a. you have no concern for the results, or b. you think YOU are the star of the video and therefore must constantly assert your presence and agency.

This video should be placed as an answer to all popular videos like Bravo Channel that way more kids can learn more about important matters

@Zatzzo its in apex 1:55:59 its more about The Federal Reserve Banks fractional banking system, than Ron Paul but he does mention his name there.

[brVOVds]

@KennyTization just listen to what this man has to say use headphones works for me

[brVOVds]

@Dymdez its true Fedral reserve bank isn't a problem its best system than we can have, Gold-standard didn't work and never will.To fight the growing poverty in USA one must distribute the money better. You can't import products from china with out creating new jobs in usa thats the main . What Government should have done is create new well payed jobs by stimulate new projects if they did, everything would have been fine you still can do it or stop importing and produce in usa

[KennyTization]

I can't hear him at all. Very poor recording quality

[Dymdez]

@Zatzzo Mostly his general criticisms of Ron Paul's de-regulation policy, what it would lead to (fascism, corporate tyranny, no social services) and Chomsky doesn't really view the federal reserve as a big problem, mostly a distraction from obvious problems. I really don't like summarizing chomsky, its probably best if you google "chomsky.info ron paul" or something like that. He writes about him every now and then.

@Dymdez

do you remember where the part about ron paul is?
