The guy seems cool and collected, can't help but feel a little sorry for him. Maybe he just ran into the wrong pocket.

Well this is a good thing the Ron Paul people need to show up and educate them.... I like when the guys starts saying european countries like spain and greece.... he wants to follow those models..... And what would Ron Paul do for minorites .... Well most minorites are in jail for drugs he would give them freedom.

--- Edit its really sad he played the race card....thats the automatic ultra left liberal communist argument.

Well...at least we know there are idiots on both sides.


One guy thinks the "free market" will fix everything...the other wants to get rid of currency



This protest is bringing out the geniuses.

The guy with the beard is annoying. I hate people like that who get so confrontational that an intelligent debate is not even possible, because they are "telling you what's up" and will not listen to a word you have to say (assuming they let you say a word). I've met so many people like that. Idiots.

"What the F' does Austrian Economics matter to a black man from Brooklyn?"



Ludwig von Mises asserted that inflation only results when the supply of money outpaces demand for money..........

hahaha I would like to see him try to plow threw the soil in new york and grow something trying not to judge him on his looks but my guess is he would get tired of it quick and be beggin to go back to a diffrent system. Also I like how he mentioned getting rid of the usless stuff including soda etc... but not the power for his tv( at least I would have to guess thats what it was for ) .

Wow, that's very revealing. See, I knew that a lot of those protesters have no clue about this stuff. They just heard what a bunch of leftist professors spew. This country is in a lot of trouble. I hope it was an eye opener to the Ron Paul supporter to see who's really out there.

Wow....i am not surprised how dumb people can be....

Ron Paul wants a lot of things done, but even if he gets those things done (and he never will just a heads up) he wont know what to do next.

Austrian economics are actually fairly good, but i would stick with the Swiss economics in my honest opinion.

Look at the Swiss Franc and you will see why I say so, oh and their banking policies, they have the best ones in the world.

Oh and economics has to do with EVERYONE. Even if it is out of the Corporate U.S.

Any economy in any country effects one another, some more then others, like major trading "countries". All economies have to do well, so as to not create a domino effect.

We all are beginning to see a domino effect it started with Greece, it went to Spain, most recent is the Euro Union (which is a nice handful of "countries"). And theres a big list of faltering "countries" likely to default and a start a beginning of a crash.

Everyone knows the problem, but no one has a solution.

I would and could if given the opportunity.

As best we can tell, MM and KO and the OWS gang demand we apply the communist motto: “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.” Thus, the mantra: “Spread the wealth, tax the rich!”

So, the socialists and communists back home who keep promoting failure while promising success would have us drink the Kool Aid and call it nourishment.

Spread the misery on Wall Street

I somewhat agree with you.

However....Ron Paul is also full of crap.

anti corporate regulation is Ron Paul's crapola.

Two philosophies on the exteme ends...and both are just as wrong as the other.

Both need to move to the center for real solutions.

I give the Ron Paul supporter a lot of credit for trying to educate. Maybe some of those kids heard him.

Whats the difference between now? Where the companies just lobby or simply get their people into office of those departments that regulate them?

Big Pharma is the FDA, Big Industry is the EPA

The black dude is obviously a very unintelligent follower,
It seems he's the type of guy to out lash on anybody against his views.
Just yelling away his viewpoint not letting the shy white guy get a loud enough word
to be heard. I can't stand people like that, I don't think those two guys know anything
about Ron Paul. I honestly believe that they probably hate all the candidates.
Because there "government". Anarchists tend to hate anyone with a seat of power,
or any figure of authoritie for that matter.. sigh.

EDIT: Racist Ragers hate any white guy that is a politician. Nuff said

if those kids had a clue they'd grasp the concept of who their true enemy is. the federal reserve.
ron paul wants to end the federal reserve.
they're just bored and have jumped on the bandwagon is all.

Ok so the guy who is so down on millionare white people wants a currency void economy. Fair enough but, at the moment, he should not be arguing this. He should be arguing for a fair tax program that would allow exposure of uber rich who are blanketed by loopholes and don't have to pay their fare share. Next, if he wants an economy and society that opperates without currency then he really needs to listen to the Ron Paul Supporters. In my opinion, the first step would be to "End the Fed" . After that corruption is removed and the house of cards tumbles, the next step can be re-orgainzation and then his point will carry some validity. However, this movement is rapidly turning into what I thought it would. I posted in another thread that this would pit two sides, by design, and that the PTB would accomplish the same thing that happened as the Tea Party progressed. People wake up! Divide and conquer is the tactic! Who gives a rats behind what political party you stand with! If you want to make a better world you are going to have to get over your self righteouness in a hurry or your shackles will just get tighter and tighter!

After about day three of these protests it started reeking of communism.. I'm not sure if these guys ever had to real Orwell in high school? I did, and I'm about the same age as the people in the video.. Watching the live stream and hearing them calling each other 'comrade.'

When I was in high school, and more so in my first year of college I noticed it becoming 'cool' with the more underground groups to be communist. I would get into debates with these people and it ended up being a huge shouting match like the one in the video. This was going on during the 08 election so the radicals were out in full hipster regalia. It's been a strange road and the more I learn about it the more I notice it in my peers. Next time I go downtown I will take a photo of this bar I've seen with a hammer and sickle neon sign in the window.. my friends and I were perplexed by it for sure.

Sorry if I was a little off topic but the video sparked a good train of thought
