While the format was strange - I got a LOT of questions through all of it - His questions were usually good and challenging.

@1crash2burn I felt the black guy, who interestingly is also named Steve, asked good questions. Maybe 4 out of 6 were perfect for my narrative, but questions are always hard to answer and stay on track. He an I have had lots of conversations, and they all like what I am teaching there, except that I speak too fast :). I loved his body language, responding to my reach out to the tea party, for example.

@1crash2burn Name one legitimate question? I lived in NC, and have been around people like that. They try to act smart by asking" questions" that really have very little to do with the topic. Steve was trying to set up the history of banking and economics before he actual got to the point so that people could have a refference to Austrian economics, a couple of those idiots kept interupting. They kept telling him to slow down, not because he was too fast, but because they were too dumb.

@shoelessjoe2555 What the hell are you talking about? He brought up some legitimate questions and they had a pretty open-minded debate. Just because someone brings up a point that challenges your thought doesn't mean they need to just "STFU" Don't be so closed-minded and maybe YOU will learn something.

Excellent video man. I'm a big Peter Schiff fan, listen to his radio show every day, you sound like a nicer version of him.

God dayumn, not to sound racist, but i wish that black guy would STFU. He obviously doesnt understand economics, he probably doesnt even understand what the fed is. Or the difference between investment banks or commercial banks. He obviously desires to sound smart. But he isnt very bright. I cant stand people who do that. If you dont understand, shut up and wait and maybe youll learn something. SHEESH!
