**Peter Schiff Storms City Hall** New Haven, CT Jan. 16, 2010.wmv
http://schiffforsenate.com/
Senate candidate, Peter Schiff, was invited to a Tea Party at City Hall in New Haven, Connecticut on January 16, 2010. He was there, and what he said to the assembled crowd was stirring. His message of hope and combatting government oppression was just what the people wanted to hear.
One heckler at the edge of the street was silenced by some good old American common sense and logic. Wherever Schiff appears, his message resonates with the audience.

@ncerione I’m sure your about healthcare and Grayson. I think the cost of care will go up under this bill as well. If we are lucky we will break even.
I am just curious if you are going to vote for him or not in a year…
Personally I am more about a left and right libertarian coalition, than a strictly libertarian ideology. A government that truly represents the people, can work well….Just my opinion.

Oh man, Schiff …
Oh man, Schiff owned that heckler. How often do you see candidates throw an impromptu speech on the street? Rarely. They usually have them in places packed with like minded indivduals, where they don’t have to do something hard like debate detractors. Schiff has the brass ones we need in Washington.

Go Peter! Look at that America… no teleprompters and he actually takes questions off the street.
Vote for this man.

Just to clarify …
Just to clarify that comment I made, the reason the protectionist oik who was criticising Schiff should be ashamed of himself is because it’s Austrian economists like Schiff who understand that America’s export trouble occurs because of exchange rates that float on how much money the Fed prints (trying to increase exports through currency manipulation reduces trade links and eventually exports) and China’s mercantile schemes-the gold standard is the TRUE protector from that.

Schiff could have …
Schiff could have really shat on that protectionist heckler (who if he is reading this, should be ashamed of himself for being so uncivilised and disrupting Schiff in his non-teleprompter speech) by saying that thanks to the abolition of the gold standard, it’s hard as to invest abroad because eg our socialist UK inflates its currency so creditors can’t make good returns if contracting in foreign currency. Goldstandard allows refection of money’s actual worth, in coin form, NOT a distortion

I live in Florida ( …
I live in Florida (Orlando actually) and Grayson is not a badass. The true “liberal” in the Milton Friedman or Adam Scott sense of the word was as close to a libertarian as you can get. Your statement about Nader is true – he would like to see some of the massive gov’t involvement relieved – however he would counteract it with even further social restriction (and that is no where near the true liberal). I also agree with your statement that political philosophy is not a clear 2 side division.
July 5th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
the fr left …
the fr left includes alan greyson (kind of a badass), the far left wants to end the fed (see Nader) it may help the libertarian cause to join the far left. Political philosophies are not on a two dimenional plane. Rather they form a circle with facism and communism meeting on one side, and libertarianism and the Nader’s of the world meeting on the other side. Democrates and repulicans represent the fascists. This is the opposite view. It is shared by both the far right and the far left.

If everybody used …
If everybody used insurance for food, I gurantee you, food prices would be much more expensive than today, because with insurance as a form of payment, and “not real” insurance by definition, nobody would shop around for cheaper prices. It inflates prices. Food isn’t covered by insurance, everybody shops for cheaper prices in food. Over-utilization of insurance jacks up prices for everything when insurance is about a hedge against a highly expensive future event, not just a method of payment.

Duh, because I told …
Duh, because I told you, they ration care. Canada is allowing private insurance when before it was illegal, and the healthcare there is unsustainable as well. Germany too. The problem with insurance is that there is no normal price mechanism, because nobody shops for cheaper prices, and government isn’t as efficient bargainer of prices compared to a entire market full of actors who participate. What information source do you have? Elective surgeries as not covered by insurance, it’s cheaper.

You oversimplify …
You oversimplify the issue. IF it’s so simple and obvious. What information source can you give to backup that Glaringly obvious logical conclusion. Fact is there are other countries doing it better and for cheaper. Why would you oppose a participant only plan? No money goes to the program other then what is volunteered. You would still see opposition to that still even though, because you can’t complete with no profit motive. Maybe someone will make a non for profit that’s popular.

Do you know why …
Do you know why health insurance, and healthcare is more expensive in the USA? Let me guess capitalism right? Health insurance is government controlled on state level, and the over utilization of health insurance causes higher prices. Great Britain rations healthcare because the state can’t afford it, however in the USA, the symptom is higher prices. You don’t have no clue what you are talking about. Customers who buy everything with insurance, don’t shop around for cheaper prices. Logic!!!

Nope. I am not campaign volunteer. I don’t live in Connecticut. I am just surprised how bold he is, and how he defrags people on debates.

so you say your a health care provider and your name is bigbird?? wow i feel assured going to see you.
what do you mean your a health care provider? what kind of health care do you provide? you are so full of it.
i think you are pathetic. for someone who says they do hours of research on it you still haven’t made any clear or decisive arguments. can you make a point?@Bigbird5553

boy I wonder if your a campaign volunteer commenting on your own campaign. LOL

So why not have a whole grocery store of capitalism. We can sign up for which Police provider we want, and fire service. Sign up who will deliver our mail, and we can hire our own individual members of government to represent us? DO you think a health plan would cover ambulances or should I get a separate plan to cover just that service?

#1 I am a …
#1 I am a healthcare provider #2. hours of research into the topic. Sorry to just label you, but most people have made up their mind on this issue based on no more then 4-5 paragraphs of information. Given to them by politicians with their own motives ( that goes for both sides repub and dem). So even if someone disagree with me I would rather they make a decision based on more then that small amount of info. Many college lecture free podcasts exist on the subject and written studies

bigbird – first off i am not stamped a republican. i voted for obama. i wish i didn’t. second what is your background? what makes you so qualified to know about healthcare??

You base your …
You base your argument on the belief that market forces would not act on health care because we need it. Look… when you have a fire and your house burns down, thats pretty catastrophic, but people get fire insurance.
When you get cancer thats pretty catastrophic, but people get health insurance.
On the other hand, when your house plumbing gets clogged, usually, you pay for that yourself. Same should be when you sprain your ankle or something.
There logic, doesn’t so crazy anymore.
July 5th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
Well BigBird, you …
Well BigBird, you also need food and clothing, so why don’t we have government pay for that too? Let’s get poor, starving people off the streets by having a government option, right?
I live in Britain and I can tell you when the government gets involved in healthcare, private business is crushed – it’s impossible to compete against the government since it out-costs the competition.
The notion of a “government option” is deceptive, since it inevitably leads to government-only healthcare.
