Pete sure is moving up in the world - his show goes national at the end of this mont (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?307423-Peter-Schiff-Show-Moving-UP-in-the-World!!-BIG-NEWS!)h plus a minute long segment to appear on hundreds of stations, and now he will speak before Congress. The leftists there who will try to go at him will get their asses handed to them - Schiff knows almost everything, he's sharp, and he's a quick thinker

What does that mean that he will speak before congress? Will this be before a small sub-committee that not a lot of people will watch or will this be big meeting or?

Either way I am excited to watch, I love me some Peter Schiff.

I'm surprised that he hasn't been invited to Ron's hearings yet. He would kill. I'd love to hear him say that Bernanke has never been right about anything in front of those politicians.

This is going to be freaking awesome. Can't wait to see the tubes of Schiff saying that the government can't create jobs and should leave the free market alone.

He should watch Tom Woods when he was called before the committee and not be so confrontational...

i don't think so, Schiff speaks in plain English. Indeed, he explains stuff in the most common-sense english of all TV-economists.

Schiff does fine... it's how well Congress will understand the message... which, judging by how they spend, probably not very well.

Now that's what I call kicking ass and taking names!
And the lady sitting besides Schiff should move to communist North Korea.
She'll be adored over there.

i happen to think that north korea would chew most progressives up and spit them out. progressives are good at talking the talk, but not quite so good at walking the walk.

but, yeah, she really got on my nerves. (Heather Marie Boushey[1] (born 1970) is a senior economist at the Center for American Progress.)

Schiff was excellent. Love how he called out Cummings regarding how poor our education system is.

I liked at the end how Schiff said that Ford paid his workers $5 a day which equaled and ounce and a quarter of gold a week. So doing the math with today's figures they were making roughly $2500 a week with no income taxes!! How would everyone here like that? Holy crap. :)

Yeah, he mentioned it on his show today. He said it was his tax calculation math to show her how much he was getting taxed.

That video was fucking amazing. Some pure Austrian Economic Sense injected right into Washington.

Peter is awesome(although still a douche :P)

Edit: omg, watching the rest of the video. That Mr. Cummings and that lady next to him are so annoying.

This is like a real-life version of Keynes vs. Hayek sans rap battle.
