    Man, it's a real shame no one frequents these threads. Socialism is rising and these ideas are getting left behind. I'm quite convinced that the Austrians are preaching to the converted. They need to get out into the public space and debate.

      Yes, I agree. Socialism is rising and there's nothing that can stop as long as the public is misinformed and misguided. I'm still in the learning stages of Austrian economics but I transmit what I know to everyone around me to the best of my ability. And I won't stop.

    @9:52 that thought must be completed. The subjective value is what is sold. The nominal value is what is bought. In any exchange, regardless of a difference in medium, a sell is of the equitable value for the other party and a buy is of the equivalent value(a.k a market price) for the product or service. Price gouging is the easiest example.

    • @BobWidlefish
      @BobWidlefish 8 лет назад +4

      I thought his explanation of money was acceptable, albeit clearly aimed at a casual audience. Regarding the bill, one could argue that particular act is protected by 1st amendment precedent. There are laws against defacing bills, but it's doubtful a charge would stand up if challenged on free speech grounds. You may not have thought it was an exercise of free speech, but I certainly did. Some people burn flags, others tear federal reserve notes.

    this is coming from a musician: the guy introducing Bob has excellent mic control. considering how difficult it is to hear lectures I want to hear, it was wanted. he also had an excellent sense of humor, which is something no one will understand unless his mic control sufficiently conveyed the humor. which it did.
    and now we have bob's lapel mic picking up room modes. gross. extra gross cause he has a sense of humor.

    Talks for an hour and NEVER explains that ALL money is created out of thin air when private banks issue loans, and that 97% of all money exists only in the computers of private banks. Maybe that is why his prediction for hyperinflation in 2010 was wrong; because he has no idea how money is actually created, or by whom. 49:50 He still believes in the thoroughly-debunked "Money Multiplier Myth!"

      @@lowrydan111 Never heard of Jeff Snyder, but I will look him up. Richard Werner is the most important economist of our time because in 2014 he empirically proved banks create money when they issue loans with no need for deposits or reserves. This empirical test destroyed the "fractional-reserve" myth. But the Austrian economists never got the memo and keep parroting a debunked theory without ever testing it. Even the Bank of England has admitted Werner is right, but not the Austrian economists. Stupid or evil? You decide.

      Meh. Your bank doesn't get that "money" until the Fed prints it. It keeps taking deposits and maybe has an outstanding ratio of 3.5 to 1. Eventually Fed ships the difference. HOWEVER if 10 to 1 was not allowed banks would be much more judicious, absolutely no NINJA loans no matter what FANNIE sez. Your college loan would be higher.
