Whenever peter Schiff comes to a podcast or video, it becomes The peter Schiff show.

[eagleone]

Mike won the debate by getting a free lesson from peter

[GunmanYeoh]

Peter won the debate. Moderator is a 10. Green is such a gentleman with Peter endlessly interrupting him and not being put off and further always allowing Peter to finish his sentences.

[brockcoartney]

Peter didn't even charge Mike a fee for the education.

[daviidon]

I appreciate Peter's emphasis on the real definition of inflation...when there is excess capacity and the government prints more, prices may not rise but it's still a net loss because it's preventing prices from falling. Peter definitely came out on top...

[huskysixdirty]

I learned from this debate more than from a dozen Peter Schiff solo podcasts. Moderator is asking the right questions and Mike gives perfect inside of traditional Keynesian and current MMT thinking. Peter delivers the knowledge of Austrian Economics in his own brilliant way.

[annunakian]

This is what an intellectual debate sounds like. Sans name-calling, sans attacks on credibility, which is what debates on MSM consist solely of.

[steve]

I commend the patience Mike has. He keeps it together even when Peter interrupts (That’s just Peter). I tend to agree with Peter’s view on things. Really enjoyed this conversation Thank you for organizing this

[BogdanManciu]

I love that Peter was less Peter then usual, kept his tone down and managed to formulate an argument for a change. Perhaps he had simpler points to make but he did help me understand his position better.

[jfcrow]

Respect for whoever decided to debate Peter. He makes too much sense and is not a government shill.

[TK-sxmn]

Mike was the coolest debater, respect for debating Peter!

[soychivaspues]

A debate turned into an educational class. Peter rocks.

[sethgoldberg]

what I like most about Peter is his way of explaining things, he uses simple English, which for me as a non native speaker is really helpful, none of those fancy terms they teach at universities, it's much easier to understand complex concepts when they're explained using everyday language. I listen to his every podcast and it's always great enjoyment.

[rayg]

I legitimetly though RV shadow banned Peter Schiff, im so glad he is on here. - needs to be interviewed by Raoul.

[IsaacWendt]

I love mike but man did he get blown out of the water. Peter brought the heat. Brillant interview

[WhySilverWhyNow]

Peter wins every argument based on the merits but often loses when it comes to making money

[Bubblegan]

Peter Schiff is brilliant. He has a much deeper understanding of the role of government and the essence of money. Thank you for this debate.

[elplata]

Peter makes so much sense and no one listens. Just sad.

[nrdsdiscussinglife]

Can we have these two giants on again, one year later to review their predictions? Great debate

[cheerstopoland]

Peter's indestructible logic... His father gave him a solid baseline and he was a great student
