Classic and true. Check out the "regarding" link for an analysis of the Great Society, one of the many chains by which we are bound.The humanitarian wishes to be a prime mover in the lives of others. He cannot admit either the divine or the natural order, by which men have the power to help themselves. The humanitarian puts himself in the place of God.
But he is confronted by two awkward facts; first, that the competent do not need his assistance; and second, that the majority of people … positively do not want to be "done good" by the humanitarian…. Of course, what the humanitarian actually proposes is that he shall do what he thinks is good for everybody. It is at this point that the humanitarian sets up the guillotine.
--- Isabel Paterson, The God of the Machine (New York, 1943), p. 241.
A Libertarian tries to sell freedom to a population almost completely convinced of it's own impotence and incompetence, and overcome by fear that the decisions they made for themselves would be even worse than those made by the politicians who run their lives today.

For Schiff: We told you so, you RUDE rat bastards!
So for all of you who laughed at our warnings then, here is a video. Enjoy it. Then go fuck yourselves. If you don't fuck yourselves to death, go read some Austrian Economics.
Here is my prediction: the worst is still yet to come. I'm not sure what Peter is saying these days, he's never interviewed anymore, but it is mine.
If you want to patronize Peter's company, it's at http://europac.net/
