Euro Pacific Capital president Peter Schiff's accurate predictions in 2006 and 2007 about the economic meltdown
Stein: When we just saw that man, I think it was Mr. Myers [biologist P.Z. Myers],
talking about how great scientists were, I was thinking to myself the
last time any of my relatives saw scientists telling them what to do
they were telling them to go to the showers to get gassed … that was
horrifying beyond words, and that’s where science — in my opinion, this
is just an opinion — that’s where science leads you. Crouch: That’s right.
Stein: …Love of God and compassion and empathy leads you to a very glorious place, and science leads you to killing people.
Crouch: Good word, good word.
Peter says the truth and all the arrogant aholes just laugh.
This video sequence offers a compendium of appearances (covering the
2006-2007 period) by Euro Pacific Capital president Peter Schiff, who
is a frequent -- and frequently disrespected -- talking head on cable
news shows. What astonishes is not just the accuracy of his dour
predictions about the economy but the sheer arrogance of every other
person appearing on these programs.
I don't know who comes off
as worse -- the supremely snotty Ben Stein, or the well-named Arthur
Laffer. I just wonder how Ben Stein feels about the financial markets
as an investment now.
This is an astonishing compilation of clips. It just keeps getting more outrageous as it goes along.
Every
time Schiff says something sensible, the pundits surrounding him snort
and howl. They treat him with undisguised contempt and hatred, as
though he had just called for ending the laws against homicide or
reducing the age of consent to three.
What did these "experts" hope to gain by attempting to conspire against reality?
