Peter Schiff's Keynote Speech at the New Hampshire Liberty Forum in 2012

The topics I discussed during the 2012 presidential election are even more pertinent to the discourse during the current cycle.

I could listen to Peter talks for hours. Hypnotic.

[@reggieD100]

I literally feel the same exact way. I've listened to this interview like a dozen times in the past, one of his best ones.

[@billjanksy6522]

Hypnotic. Ha. That's what they said about Jim Jones.

[@JJYacco]

100%

[@Jeckhart02]

I like Peter's flow when he has consumed a few glasses of wine. Good stuff!

[@iwtommo]

Completely agree, but we'll gloss over 59:55 eh

[@AgentSmith911]

lol

[@AC-wl7ve]

I’ve been watching a lot of these speeches and every time I turn one on I’m expecting the same old talking points, yet I’m surprised with a great variety in information. Peter is a great teacher.

[@mauriciosolano9342]

Lol same

[@mauriciosolano9342]

Many people do the same speech with same words and same stories I've seen few of Peter and all of them are different Peter probably doesn't practice this because he feels the dangerous behavior Peter for president Or Ron(rand) Paul

Peter you look a little sauced giving that speech; but my god you are as sharp as a nail on the economics even after a few drinks)))) Freedom!!!

"An American citizenship used to be an asset, now it is a liability." And that is how we know that our home is no longer a home but a plantation.

[@PardonMySwaggy]

Ironically it was an asset because slaves were on a plantation providing free labor.

[@dennouvelle7524]

No need for a teleprompter when you know what you're talking about. Great stuff, Peter!

[@douglasmccready3393]

Drunk Peter Schiff... Love u bro! Called and listened to your show for years...miss it!

[@nonetaken7873]

That was a great speech, thank you Peter.

[@europeancavebeast9100]

Peter is the absolute best. Great example of a man, family man, business man, and American.

[@PaoloBroccardo]

Peter looks a bit tipsy here, at least to me, compared to his other videos. Either that, or he's really relaxed and in the flow. Great speech and still relevant today. Keep up the great work!

[@MitchellfcNa32]

Not at the start but yes by the end of it lol

[@WAVYMCFLY2]

PETER SCHIFF AT HIS BEST!!!!

[@thomasmageddon]

my dude Peter Schiff is a genius I respect what he does

[@celebrationsbridal]

A Peter Schiff talk without having to talk about Bitcoin is so much better.

[@adammcateer1499]

Even more impressive is all that good information and no teleprompter!!

[@nickforte]

Get this guy in public office

[@robertblack6941]

And the politicians keep fiddling …. How many times have we heard that “debt doesn’t matter?” except when it does. Nobody, Trump included, wants to acknowledge this problem.

great video, worth the time spent listening

[@nicodemus807]

Peter Schiff is awesome!!!!!

[@rolandhaechler5564]

Great Speech ... Thx VM Peter !

[@robertburke9920]

Worthy to listen to more than once. Peter Schiff is a good speaker, very good posture and nice suit this time. Good exercise program, my guess: lap swimming... outside, for the tan and health bennies?

This is the US government we're talking about. They probably do spend $450 or more making each photocopy of that form.

Great talk, hadn't heard it before. I'm still waiting for the day of reckoning, but I realize it's impossible to predict the exact date. It feels pretty soon now though.

Have you given any speeches more recently? Would be great if you could upload them here if you have, I enjoy listening to these.

[@cero2277]

Is there any footage from freedom fest '16? I think peter did a speech or debated, but I don't see anything from that event

[@babsthewreckingcrew4294]

is there a reason why all these videos are slowed down

[@tomatobrush3283]

There would be no need to ever renounce citizenship if Americans were not taxed outside the US.

[@whydotheathensrage]

I worked for IBM and ATT for a combined 20 + years, I didn't see all the employee rights Pete talks about... I saw the corps treat their employees like shit and off shore the workers jobs. Pete is not speaking from the experience of a corporate worker. He needs to take a three year "sabbatical" and go work for a Fortune 20 so he can speak from his experience. He'd probably get downsized or Off-shored before he made to the 3rd year.

[@whydotheathensrage]

Carlos Polanco Well the culture from what I saw was screw the worker, execs get all the wealth. Peter makes it sound like the employee is living large because of some mandated federal requirement that the gov imposes on the business owner. Owners have it good, if it wasn't so they wouldn't be owners.

[@whydotheathensrage]

Carlos Polanco I am so right, common logic says if it was THAT painful, you would just go be a worker slave bee somewhere, we all know it's good to be the king or queen bee in this case. Just as it's good to be CEO or business owner. You don't have 5 layers of managers shitting on you, you only have the gubbment, and they are so stupid you should easily be able to avoid and evade them. So as hard as it is in this obungle economy for the business owner, times that by 5 for the piss poor employee wage slave.

[@HR-yd5ib]

@Carlos , big corporation != small business.

[@johnm1765]

Do you still have a daily show?

[@CentrifugalSatzClock]

Ahead of the curve as usual and precise to boot.

[@HR-yd5ib]

precise in what way?

[@falmouthkid]

Dear Peter Schiff or anyone who knows what they are talking about. I am a long time listener to the show and am finishing up my marine engineering degree this year. My skill sets are engineering and shipyard work. What would you recommend to be a free country to move to? (I only speak English)

[@gtwo05]

Listening to the Wall comment 5 years later was pretty crazy.

[@ricois3]

[@HaedenBeck]

Starts at 3:30

[@Blueblackngold]

no idea 2021

[@nicosmind3]

Was thinking there. The amount of people who leave the US every year and give up their citizenship, that if they moved to New Hampshire instead the Free State Project could have been achieved already. Edit: All said before Peter started talking :O. Must have been something the introducer said triggered that thought.

[@Alberta1stPodcast]

He never talks about the wall keeping americans in anymore or the idea you wont be able to take your gold out of America or that you cant afford to renounce your citizenship anymore very very unique lecture

[@ax9696]

Yo wtf is that intro… lol

[@jonathan2260]

Hi Peter. I think your statement about Canadians living abroad without paying income taxes is inaccurate. I have heard that you do have to pay taxes to Canada much like in the US when it comes to working abroad. The trick for Canadians in such a situation is to inform the government and be setup as a non-resident of Canada which makes sense if you're planning to work and live years out of the country. You basically remain a citizen but can only be in the country for 30 days a year. It may not seem like a big difference but it's important so that the day you come back to the country and return to being a resident you don't have the taxman coming at you with a nasty surprise.

[@reverendbluejeans1748]

:) Could someone help me on a simple maths problem :( If I bough car for $20,00 and I had to pay 20% sale tax on but also all the components in it was also tax 20%( Engine, gear box, lights) All the component machine was also taxed 20%, and all the machines that created those machine was also tax 20%. What percentage of the car is taxed.

[@josephscott1870]

All if it

[@786sami786]

Peter, why don't you renounce your US citizenship?

[@jonnyutsa1]

Your talks are amazing. Too bad you aren't an advisor to Trump. What politician would listen anyway?

[@joeyflubbermuffin7227]

At around 1:00:30 in the video Christopher Cantwell asks, "Given as you said that an American Citizenship is now a liability, you are better off going to a communist to run a business and with all the things that you have laid out as many of us have laid out, do you really see with all the government violence and coercion laid towards us *do you really see a peaceful solution to this problem?*" To which Peter the optimist replies some things and comments on the irony Chris brought up. Namely the supposed capitalist country becoming more, if not already more, unfree than the supposed communist country. At 1:01:23 Peter said, "...but ya I mean we can resolve it peacefully I mean you don't know. Who knows right? Ron Paul could become president." Then Cantwell follows up in a last ditch effort to both black pill and red pill the crowd saying, "If I could just chime in just to follow up I think that there is so much violence already going on that a peaceful solution is almost an oxymoron because there is so much violence being done to us if we don’t respond violently to them that is one thing but a peaceful solution is us getting over the violence being done to us." With respect to white genocide (or the methods to prevent it) and the destruction (or method of salvation) of western civilization, Chris Cantwell will become the new )))Peter((( (((Schiff))) of prophets.

[@VoluntaristSociety]

The USA has been fully communistic since at least 1912. It does not matter what your state educators told you about it being capitalist, that was a distraction from reality.

[@joeyflubbermuffin7227]

I agree.

[@HR-yd5ib]

you guys need a reality check. War? Communism? I am not opposed to using hyperbole every now and then but you seem to actually believe this - which by any objective measure just is not the case however.

[@earthprisoner]

Peter, I've never seen you after a 2 martini lunch, shades of Bill Maher!

[@alexp.2897]

Bill Maher is a bone headed idiot; schiff is a legend)

[@davidbasset7557]

I get sick to my stomach thinking about the millions of kids getting pushed into college as a right of passage like I was. It was such a waste of time and money, although i was able to party every night celebrating my freedom from home. The classes in my business school were so easy i didn't even show up until finals. I graduated in 2008 only to learn in 2012 ( because of Ron Paul's campaign and Peter's Occupy Wall st. video) that I was being indoctrinated with leftist ideology my whole life.

[@hOtneO]

In a parallel universe the US would elect Peter Schiff to be president and Ron Paul as vice president.

[@danofthenorth2]

That renunciation form is now $2350 !

[@atticusnow131]

[@JasonFavrod1]

2012:0% ---- 13 ---- 14 ---- 15 --- 16:0.25%---- BOOM!?

[@kmg501]

The cost of the form went from zero to $450 in July of 2010 and to $2,350 in Sept of 2014. A 422% increase. The federal government doesn't have to worry about the so called terrorists or nations like North Korea. It has to worry about men like me who have come to despise the U.S. federal government who has made itself our mortal enemy. My family has been a part of America for a very long time. My grand father was a colonel in WW one. Him not seeing what is going on today is a blessing. :-|

[@DisabilityExams]

Since 1953, how many wars has North Korea started? How many has the USA started. How many wars is North Korea fighting in now? How many wars is the USA fighting in now?

[@MrEndzo]

Are you talking about renonce US citizenship? What is expensive is to get another one, not to quit.

[@kurt6410]

wtf is this being uploaded? i've watched this numerous times on other peoples channels like 4 stinking years ago

[@peterschiff]

Well we never put it on this channel. Given what is being discussed today I thought the topics were very timely. Its not market related, so being 4 years old does not change the validity of the message.

[@kurt6410]

Peter Schiff you need to start recommending people buy ethereum. very exciting technology ethereum could take over bitcoin. you'll make a lot more from buying ethereum than buying gold and silver. cryptic currency is the wave of the future. the smartest people in the world are in cryptic currencies. it's the wave of the future. gold is the wave of the past

[@Thsiscool]

+Kurt Mason Not necessarily. At the end of the day, gold and silver holds its value whether you like it or not. You can exchange it for goods, services, or trade it for currencies like the USD. Don't get me wrong though, crypto currencies is a revolutionary thing, however, what happens if technology fails/internet fails or a terrorist attack that destroys the technological infrastructure of a region or nation? What then? My point is, having gold and/or silver is still relevant today as it was 5000 years ago. Nevertheless, why not hold crypto currencies AND gold/silver? -Cheers

[@kurt6410]

Thsiscool gold and silver are a good value store but that's about it. nothing wrong with having a very small amount of your paper assets 1-3% in physical gold and silver as a protection. but these people who advocate 10-20% in metals thats just stupid

[@JamesTsividis]

I appreciate you uploading it again. I have only been looking into economics for the past 6 months so I never would have seen this video at the time.

[@oskarlatov]

I liked it all the way until Peter started talking about Russia. FYI, things Russia came up with BESIDES AK-47: АН-225 - the largest cargo airplane in the world, FREE world class healthcare, FREE world class education, Soyuz Space station and the best rocket engines that americans can still neither duplicate, nor do without. Just to name a few. As far as food production: it was sufficient despite being inefficient. Grain purchases were made BECAUSE of all those things PS is ranting about, i.e. government intervention in the economy in the form of US Federal subsidies to american grain farmers (which distorts price).

[@robcinq-mars9155]

In truth, Capitalism needs to be updated. All of the existing forms of economy/political systems require continual growth on a planet with finite resource and exponentially growing population. What we perceive as problems (energy, environment, etc.) are not the real problems - they are the symptoms of the real, verifiable problems (which are politically poisonous): Population and over consumption.

[@kmg501]

+Rob Cinq-Mars Update capitalism? How about we first return to free trade and then talk about it from there.

[@nicosmind3]

Capitalisn *doesnt require continuous growth!!!*. Not at all!! Youre only thinking about this bastardised version were savings are destroyed. And where governments have taken over pensions and run them like a ponzi/pyramid scheme. Its *sacraficing our tomorrows for a better today* and thats the fault of government!! Japan has a "demograthic crisis" because of the amount of elderly as a growing percentage the population, and that crisis wouldnt exist if they didnt take taxes from the people living today to pay for pensioners now!!! Those people paid enough taxes their entire lives to support their pensions however that money was taken to pay for government projects and boost GDP figures. Its what governments do. On the free market a real pension scheme would have invested that money into stocks and bonds, gold etc, and there would have been plenty of cash there for their pensions. Populations can shrink or have demographic shifts under capitalism, under statism it cant!! And thats why they need growth!

[@joeyflubbermuffin7227]

+Rob Clinq-Mars needs to keep listening to more of Peter's videos.

[@robcinq-mars9155]

I listen to all of Peters videos, understand and agree with most of what he says. Look, the very biggest problem facing our society is the we consistently elect people to office based upon what we WANT to hear, rather than what we NEED to hear. We now have 8 BILLION people on this planet and growing exponentially. My comment and suggestion is correct. We can and should "evolve" capitalism to take into account these politically poisonous realities. Constant perpetual growth is impossible. We can develop a system that changes our values away from rampant commercialism and rewards higher quality and value. Believe me, I'm a libertarian... not recommending one of the other forms of governance which would also not work.

[@joeyflubbermuffin7227]

Rob Cinq-Mars " I listen to all of Peters videos, *understand* and agree with most of what he says" This does not appear to be true. First off the population is not growing exponentially. The population, which is 7.4 billion as of August 2016, is expected to grow to 11.2 billion by the year 2100, which is 84 years away. This is not even doubling.[1] Secondly and very importantly, the size of the population is the result of how many people can sustain themselves. Even if the population was growing exponentially every single year this would essentially be a non issue since it would only be able to grow at that level because of economic developments, technology, et cetera. There can be (and will always be severe ones in the presence of a state) corrections toward the shifting market equilibrium of supply and demand for a particular good. In the long run it is always a non issue. If tomorrow the world could only support 2 million people (such a shift doesn't happen overnight obviously but bear with me) then the world population would shrink to about 2 million people over some period of time. If later 20 million people could be supported then the population would shift to 20 million people over some period of time. Thirdly and perhaps most importantly, capitalism does not need to "evolve". This is laughable. I mean literally laughable. I laughed at your original comment. Firstly "Constant perpetual growth is impossible" is indicates a gross lack of understanding of economics, not just capitalism. Secondly, anyone lives in a capitalist state is grossly wrong. A state can *ONLY* be listed as capitalist as compared to something less capitalist. You can look at the white and grey KZbin background can call the grey blacker than the white but it is not actually black. The grey is only black in comparison to the white. America is capitalist as compared to Venezuela. The term "Capitalism" was originally a derogatory word used by commies to describe people who advocated for free markets. People who advocated for free markets adopted the term because they liked it. You may notice that markets are not free. The state interferes in as many markets as it is able too. If insist on referring to our current system as capitalism then for the love of kek add the word "Crony" to it.[2] [1]Wikipedia article on World Population [2]WIkipedia article on Crony capitalism

Hahahaa...........wrong about everything. Stock market crash, housing crash, financial crisis, dollar crash, hyperinflation. etc etc etc. none of it happened.

Peter, you are very wrong on Russia not producing anything during socialism. You're way off.... They were never starving. Russia is now on the top 2 wheat producers in the world!

[@bennalbrecht]

First

[@williemo44]

The one thing he says that is very relevant is the liberal aka socialist here need the illegal immigration and Syrian refugees to save social security, social health insurance, otherwise fiscal responsibility dictates those programs are unaffordable. Only way out is to shrink government, expand military and hope the whining socialist move out of this nation to a socialist country and never return. The U.S. would be safe and prosperous then.

[@benyameenyitzhak1036]

High taxes? You ain't seen shit in Australia, where EVERYTHING is highly taxed to help the Muslim Invasion, oops, I meant the multi-cultural heaven that we live in.

[@benyameenyitzhak1036]

Yeah actually you're right.

[@requiemforamerica8432]

Actually you have it wrong peter - america is NOT the only country that forces you to pay income tax on income earned outside of the country but america IS the only developed country that forces you to pay income tax WHETHER OR NOT YOU ACTUALLY LIVE in america, if you are an american citizen. Please be precise with your facts.

[@peterschiff]

That is what I said.

[@Test7017]

yeah thats what he said... buy gold at schiff.com best premiums around i checked. :)

[@requiemforamerica8432]

Test7017 lol.. well i'm trying to listen to it again to verify - but the first time i thought i heard peter say america is the only country where the citizens are "taxed on world wide income" - which is what most developed countries actually do, if you are still living in the said country. america stands out as the worst country tax-wise because you are still expected to pay fed income tax whether you live in the country or not.

[@peterschiff]

That is what meant by world-wide income. If you are an American, and live and work abroad, you still have to pay U.S. taxes on your income. I was not referring to income Americans derive offshore while still living in the U.S. However U.S. corporations pay taxes when they repatriate foreign earned income, while most other nations allow their corporations to bring that money home tax free.

[@requiemforamerica8432]

Peter Schiff since you could still have worldwide income while LIVING in america, you didn't make it as clear as you could have. Most countries make you pay income tax on worldwide income as long as you are still living in the country.

[@harryzero1566]

Peter, you should listen to yourself in this podcast, you come over alot better. Your current diction comes across a bit exasperated and you tend to over egg the bullet points of your message.
