(Video) Peter Schiff at Occupy Wall Street (OWS) - Uncut, Unfiltered, Unleashed!
Topics: Political News and commentariesFrom the folks at Reason.tv ... who last week released an 18-minute video of investment guru, radio show host, and unflappable defender of capitalism Peter Schiff as he spent three hours among the Occupy Wall Street protesters in Manhattan's Zuccotti Park. Now they've released all the audible footage they've got.
Beyond his ability to answer all questions, the most amazing thing is how Schiff wins the hearts and minds of many Occupy diehards by explaining the differences between cronyism and capitalism, the need for sound money, and why the government can't be trusted to regulate the very banks it bailed out.About 1 hour, 45 minutes.
Schiff puts it so well: Capitalism is the only solution to their problem (or at least what they think is their problem). It's not capitalism that's the problem ... it's socialism. It's not capitalism that has failed them, it's socialism ... it's corporatism, it's crony capitalism, it's fascism ... that is the problem ... capitalism is the solution if we can only fully embrace it.
