Via MRC TV, enjoy as a card-carrying one-percenter braves the Tupperware containers filled with urine at Zuccotti Park to pose the timeless question, “I’m employing 150 people. How many people do you employ?”

Nice one Peter. 'I'm paying my fair share.' 'In, fact, I'm paying for all of you' 'I employ 150 people, how many do u employ?'

Good stuff.

Love it! The whining moron “entrepreneur” (with time to hang out in the park) just about swallowed her tongue when he asked her that.

That was a great video - everyone should at least watch the last 30 seconds...

Agreed! Reality meets idealistic blather.

The whole fallacy of the “Occupy” movement can be summed up in the last thirty seconds of the video.

I voted for Peter when he ran for senator in CT. Too bad Linda McMahon won the nomination. Now we’re stuck with that rat Blumenthal.

For most of the video all the OWS crowd could whine about was paying some sort of “fair share” that they couldn’t define and Bush.

After all those meetings, chants, etc. all they have to show is stolen stuff, a slogan and a hatred for Bush.

Problem with the OWS is they lack concept and discipline. Tea Party has both. When MSM accused the TP of being white racists, TP made sure that people in their marches are not provocateurs or taken over by real racists. Such individuals are quickly surrounded and the cops are called to remove them. OWS on the other hand cannot police themselves. Have a marcher screaming Jews are the bankers, and they should leave America, and no one in the OWS stops him. Funny how the MSM looked high and low and cannot have anything on video showing racist remarks against blacks by TP, and yet they are reluctant to report anti Jewish remarks in OWS marches even when tons of them are recorded on youtube and other videos.

Peter Schiff's father, Irwin Schiff is a patriot who was railroaded by the federal government!

Whatever anyone else might think, and God bless Peter Schiff, the fact that even two people think like all of these moonbats do isn’t funny— it’s frighting. It may sound strange to say but thank Heaven most of these idiots are smoking weed. Just imagine if- or when God forbid, they put down the bongs and the drums, ditch the Birkenstocks and they cut their hair, start wearing some kind of uniform and waving a banner of some sort with some kind of sinister yet compelling emblem on it, get a coherent and uniform message and arm themselves. Then by God, we’re really in for it.

I love Schiff. He is the economist the RW has BY FAR!

his books , his videos, his advocacy of Free Market Capitalism is second to none.

schiff is the machine gun we all need to take on the leftists hacks and RINOs

Thanks

That is something that attracted me to Schiff. He knows how to put things verbally related to capitalism that Republicans (even Rush) cant come close to making me laugh. Most just respond ‘Duh’

Schiff to OWS Protestor mob:
I am employing 150 people. How many do you employ? ..so I am doing my share so why aren't you doing your share?
and “ I am paying more income tax than all you around me so I am paying more than my fair share.

Fun: Peter Schiff confronts Occupy Wall Street protesters (see video at bottom)

He keeps asking them what a fair tax rate is and they keep responding "repeal the Bush tax cuts" on cue.
