I’m surprised that Peter Schiff didn’t resort to violence against Stephen Leeb during their appearance on CNN the other day. Leeb asks an idiotic question which Schiff answers then Leeb keeps on interrupting him about not answering the question.
Schiff continues to predict that the U.S. is headed for an inflationary depression and that government intervention is the cause of it all.
Watch the war of words below.

That Stephen Leeb guy is seriously annoying. The insulting shows mental weakness and flawed reasoning.

the stephen leeb really looks and talks like a retard.
and the bald guy is clearly anti-schiff.
who saw this recession coming? none other than peter schiff.
all the other tv hosts and guest commentators are bozos.
they used to laugh at peter when he said in 2006 that the usa property market would crash soon.
now they are still laughing at him, and with greater disdain and even anger. because peter has proven them wrong and now he is telling them that their hero obamam’s policies would make things worst.
peter schiff for president 2012.
usa missed a great chance in ron paul. ron paul will be too old in 2012, but not peter.
go peter go.

“usa missed a great chance in ron paul. ron paul will be too old in 2012, but not peter.”
The US doesn’t deserve Ron Paul. They are spoiled, stupid, lazy idiots that haven’t taken care of their country. They don’t do the smallest amount of research into their candidates. They are mindless drones who vote for one of the two clones picked for them by the US media.
The US deserves what it’s going to get. A depression.

Guys really should not be making fun of Stephen Leeb, he obviously is at least partly retarded, though I don't think I've seen someone as annoying or moronic as him myself in a long time lol.

Peter could have used the Depression of 1920-21 as an example of a Depression that ended without government help.

When Leeb asked when a government hadn't intervened in a depression, he should have just answered Calvin Coolidge during the 1919/20 forgotten depression. Coolidge and his Treasury Sec Mellon reduced gov't spending 50%, repeat 50%, reduced regulations, cut upper- tax rate from 76% to 24% and unemployment fell from 17% to 3.3% in a couple of years and lead to the roaring 20's–the biggest growth of GDP in the 20th Century.
Thats how you get out of a recession: cut taxes first, make HUGE cuts in spending, cut regulations
