Never met the Juice. I assume he’s not pleasant to be around though.
Was there a thread on the best books for learning Keynesian economics? I’m not looking for a critique.
I began with Principles of Economics. You can likely go to a university’s website and check out their classes’ required books.
Thought some of these were cool:

Re: Peter Schiff having earpiece issues
Peter Schiff on the coming collapse- but look at what he does at 3:44 (and listen to the comments made at the very end of the video),
Yeah that was actually one of the better ones. He was doing really well in the beginning, and even the parts where she couldn’t manage to cut him off, he still stopped not long after she started. Nothing like the one mentioned here or some of the others I’ve seen.
But you’ll notice he did actually put a hand up to adjust the earpiece in this one.
Like I said though, I think it’s more of a physiological issue. He probably has a hearing impediment that limits his ability to hear when he’s talking. I’m not sure of the sound quality of those earpieces, but I imagine it doesn’t take much of a hearing condition to cause that kind of problem. The piece is only in one ear, and when you’re in these interviews, that’s the only connection you have with the main news desk…you’re just staring into a camera lens. It’s not like you have a monitor that allows you to see them at all.
I know a number of guys Peter’s age who have varying degrees of hearing loss, and one of the things some of them report being told by their doctors is that they have a constant buzz in their ear that they don’t really notice…it’s like a very slight static. And it basically prevents you from hearing sounds that fall within that frequency. I wouldn’t be surprised if Peter has a similar issue which is affected by his own speech…like the vibrations in your own head that occur when you talk affect him more than a normal person.
i have to agree. the young turks thing was just too strange for that not to be his issue. I know he likes to get his full points across, but he doesnt do it near to that extent when he does face to face debates.

Some guys I know who have it work in the city and a few of them believe it has to do with waiting in the subways- if Schiff is in and out of NYC a lot, maybe using the subways, this could be the cause of it. Or, it might not be the cause of it.
