Peter Schiff and the Kochtopus

@boohickey11

I wish I could uncover a super secret double agent in the libertarian world so I could get famous too!

I was famous long before this. And I don’t think I uncovered anything. I just drew an opinion from what is already out there.

@Smiling Dave

This is like deciding about a girl based on “She went to a party my mommy [=Lew Rockwell] disapproves of”.

How about asking her out and actually talking to her?

If you would bother to read, listen, and watch the vast body of work Peter has publicly available for free, you will discover [gasp!] that he consistently calls for less govt, blames govt for our economic problems, wants to close the dept of energy, of education, of everything basically, and bring back all our troops.

He is a staunch Ron Paul supporter, having actively worked for Ron when he campaigned for president. Paul was a recent guest on his radio show.

All very un-Kochian.

I knew some Peter Schiff fans would probably deny and attack the messenger etc rather than deal with what I wrote, and the articles/facts I posted. If you bothered to do some research, I was into Peter Schiff before you were. I have hundreds of hours listening to him speak, including his radio show live for over a year. I know exactly who he is. And I have a very good idea of who he swims with now.

@Mises Pieces

If Peter Schiff is part of a conspiracy to divert people away from the Mises Institute then, at least with me, he has failed miserably, since he, probably more than anyone else, pointed me towards Austrian Economics and set me on the road to eventually reading Mises, Rothbard, Hayek, Hazlitt, Hoppe, etc.

I don’t recall anyone saying he was part of a conspiracy. Do you?
