These are the first crazy people that have genuinely made me smile.

[Aswan]

I like how the guy with glasses misspells bitcoin and say "bit-con"

[Bitcoinpro]

very funny 

[Traktion]

Lots of 'we' used incorrectly there, along with conflating society with the state.

Society can never be imposed by force; that is an oxymoron. Society is what is formed by individuals forming relationships with one another.

These people are complete dinosaurs. Time is moving on without them.

[Bitcoin Oz]

Just a small sample of life in NZ and Australia. It gets a lot worse than this believe me.

One for the history books ... a bit like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tymKPTTjrSw

It boggles the mind that these people are actually employed.

[adamthefishman]

Every reason they mentioned as to why bitcoins were bad, was actually the reason why they are good.

How do you compare bitcoins to a dishwasher ??

If I don't like Bitcoin, I can create my own version of it from its open source code. What could be more democratic and social than that?

Their interpretation of democracy is the majority ordering a minority about. It's nothing to do with the freedom of choice.

Unfortunately the media in NZ is now awash with this kind of commentary and thinking ... i.e terrible, low-brow mobocracy.

There is a holdout of second and third generation descendants of pioneers still living off the land but the full retard socialist state is all but a reality ... and national debt is rising

[SAQ]

Yeah, the left doesn't like bitcoin as a currency.

They like it as a store of value though, but the currency part overwhelms them so they bash bitcoin.

You're mistaken.  And that kind of knee-jerk snap judgment hurts us all.

Authoritarians don't like bitcoin.  Of the right or of the left.  Liberals/progressives - and those of every other political stripe who dislike what our political and financial systems have done to us - are natural bitcoin boosters.  As currency or store of value, either one.

Otherwise, all I could think of when watching that video was the line from the movie:  "I see dead people..."  And they don't even know they're dead.

[theBigBadWolf]

Just look at the fear in the eyes of that guy with glasses.
It's hilarious

[BitSmile]

Good propaganda. Some people actually believe it, because they confuse them with their amazing stupidity.

[Endgame]

This is the most unbalanced discussion on anything i have seen in a while. You really need to give both sides of the argument if you expect people to take you seriously. Also, a person who cannot pronounce bitcoin has no business discussing it in an expert panel.

[Lethn]

These guys are on the same level as Ben Bernanke and Paul Krugman all they are is a bunch of paid spokespeople for various pro-imperialist and neo-keynesian ideologies, lots of different opinions on how it should be done but they all follow the same thing.

[No_2]

Bizar interviewees. Where do these people get their facts from?

[Suushi]

This video makes me sick
