Since I discovered Hillsdale College in this medium I have never been disappointed by any of your guest speakers. This delivery from Mr Daniel Hannan MEP - at the time - was magnificent oratory of a calibre rarely encountered in these benighted times; reminiscent of the time when English speaking politicians were masters both of our language and of the respective histories of the English speaking nations. Thank you for a discussion both informative and inspiring.
I feel the same way about any time I hear Milton Friedman talk I can't believe the stuff is from the '70s and the '80s and I didn't believe the speech was from nine years ago.
Daniel Hannan is an eccentric lunatic. His pronouncements on Brexit have proven to not only be completely wrong, but massively economically damaging. The UK economy is in an absolute tail spin as a result. The man should be standing before a judge and jury.
What a brilliant rhetorician and thinker! I love Daniel Hannan! Hard to believe he's an Irishman! Hannan for president of the US in 2020! If Obama can do it, so can Hannan!

I'm reading one of my great grandfather's books from 1884," Anglo-Saxon Britain." It's amazing how many parallels can be drawn from the ways which the Teutonic tribes governed and what the founding father's had in mind. I'm glad he brought it up in his presentation.

When politicians see themselves as bigger than the institutions they are passing through, therein lies the danger. When they lack the humility and believe with conviction that they have all the answers, the political shyster leaves less damage in their wake. So true!

Samuel Matz As an Englishman I've never really been exposed to quotes from the American Founding Fathers but since I began looking into things like your 2nd amendment and related gun control debate I've come to think highly of them.

I can't believe I'm only seeing this now (seven years later). If only I (we) had awoken sooner... How have we let this continue to go on? The current state of our representative republic infuriates me soooooo much, what have our parents been doing, what have we been doing, how have we let it come to this? We have to fix this if our children and grandchildren are going to inherit anything more than serfdom under debt (and oppression based on group identify).

Surprisingly, many people in their 20's and 30's are becoming Libertarians without even knowing why, and without ever reading Von Mises or Bastiat. IF you could get a kid to read Human Action by Von Mises he or she will be a Libertarian FOR LIFE because they will know WHY they were attracted to it in the first place. Now, try to get a kid to read a 900+ page book in the Internet age...
Julia Riber Pitt Free Market Libertarianism "gets it right" for wealth creation and optimum production, but... It leaves the bottom 40% of the population at the mercy of the wealthy and the corporations. In a Dog Eat Dog economy we must not forget the Dogs that get Eaten! Von Mises and Adam Smith got it right as far as they went but we MUST take care of the poor and those left behind by a booming economy. Becoming a Social Anarchist is the tempting solution but we must find the right balance of the amount of 'socialism' that we insert into our economy. That Balance is what all the fighting is about, imo.
What's depressing is that the sane ppl of the US allowed Obama to continue to tack on even more debt after this was filmed rather than stopping him by voting his butt out of office in 2012! But noooo, the lazy elected him to office so they could become even lazier than they were 4 yrs previously! All they can think of is "What can I get out of the people who actually work for a living, hopefully more, I want $400 Nikes, I need an 85" flatscreen TV and hair weave & designer shoes & handbags!".
I just finished listening to Hannon's Hillsdale College Presentation and as usual Hillsdale finds the best and brightest to brighten their students and the public gets to listen in.

The people who took the UK's A Level exams are now running the country. Over the next 16 years the Conservatives want to lift the retirement age to 75, even though the life span figure has dropped and will carry on doing as the Spreadsheet life we are all expected to live by, takes its full effect. We are ready now for Robots as the system has no time for sleep, holidays or the weather. Sleep time and holidays are under threat constantly, and soon the Bill of human rights will end up in the bin to aid the Ideology. In the Uk the votings system is corrupt to the point we need a new box on all forms with none of the above written beside it. If you have a voice they don't like you won't even get on the first list, and it's easy to have a voice they don't like. This handpicking of candidates has resulted in a remain leaning Parliament as planned. Eight years later than this video and some say we left on the 31st March according to Common Law, and they are being denied a fair day in court to put their case, suffering sneaky behaviour by the Judges on the Remain Government's behalf. At no point have we seen Mr Hannan aiding this project in anyway whatsoever, yet he says he wants to leave. In comparison any Legal attempts to delay the process, have been hurriedly assigned a court date. Today I read the Commencement document has been signed which tells the EU we are leaving, this may have been forced on them, as a new court date looms for the group who say "Hello, we've already left". Here's hoping they have their day in court and Common law wins, and we can escape the nightmare they call the EU and settle down with the nightmare we call the Milk Snatching, Poll Taxing, Bank favouring Robbing Bastard Remain Conservatives, until the next election when there isn't a leader of any EX remaining party, that anyone would vote for, if there was another choice. For 45 years the whole political system has been a facade, they've all been on Gardening Leave whilst the EU has infiltrated our State System and took over our everyday life. Now none have the training to run a country, they were expecting to be Full time employees of the EU very shortly, and the idea of Democracy would be resigned to History, the writing of which they have become expert at. One of the 9000 unelected Remain Civil servants, says he'll have to leave the country if we ever leave, as then we will find out what he's been doing with the EU since the vote to leave, behind the countries back, sounds like Treason, a law Blair and Heath should have been tried under. As being a member dictates you aren't allowed the assets to be able to think about starting out as a new country once again, such as not enough to start a bank again. It's a one way street deal. So my countries assets have been sold off to all and sundry, and bit by bit so as not to cause alarm, and the profit from these sales has been used to line their pockets. Also our Gold stocks have been reduced from 1600 tons to 300 during the 45 years and would no doubt be reduced to zero, as you don't give a purse away or a country whilst it's full of money. Starting out in such a position is dangerous as the policy had hoped, the thought they hoped, would put us off leaving, the longer we were members, it's been a game of praying for time, as they drain away our wealth in readiness for the big day, when everyone is skint enough to join, and I don't mean paper money. The people can't be in a position to have a choice, is the goal. For many we are at that point, now. Debt is now 100% of GDP, at 2T, add in all the other debts and it's probably 300/400%. It will be roughly the same in Italy and Portugal and .... When we joined Debt to GDP was at 53% and rose like Al Gore's Climate Hockey stick shortly after, to the level its at today, with only a short blip when the Labour Party had the seat. It's now at a level you could never imagine being able to pay back, whilst your manufacturing base was demolished as part of your membership, along with your Fishing Industry. Lets do the sums of what we've got left, no assets left 0£, 300 tons of gold, £9,900,000,000. We can only Blame one set of people because we never voted to go in, it was their decision to take us in and keep us in and lie about it. The road ahead would be paved in Gold one MP told us, in reality they have been living a lie for over 45 years, praying for time as they dismantle Common law in readiness for the EU rule book, and demolish the Democratic system, the deceit involved is unmeasurable, but it all might hit the fan soon.
The Founders' principle of separation of powers was inspired by Isaiah 63; the powers united in Almighty God (executive, legislative, judicial) must be separate at the human level to keep a balance.

Many concepts & institutions that the British supposedly "invented" were either reverse-engineered from the Catholic Church university system (the same university system of today, which it did invent, and is also the reason why any European can write in his respective language in the first place) or the Renaissance & Enlightenment, which ultimately blossomed out of the Church-preserved influence of Greco-Roman antiquity. Britain may have one the best modern Naval forces the world has ever seen and has played an important role in putting freedom & education into action while making them widely accessible, but it did not invent the concepts of human-international rights or the foundations of science or economy, it just re-branded them and made them relevant to it's own time period. Even America's Founding Fathers acknowledge the many influences throughout circular history that would shape the Constitution & the Declaration of Independence, such as Cyrus The Great, St. Thomas Aquinas, the Roman Republic, John Locke; ect. A plurality of accredited historians would consider them "the last of the Romans". These ideals just weren't accessible to a large part of the population before the Renaissance, because Europe was in an extreme state of barbarism and backwardness, thus precipitating the need for a martial law mentality before the early Modern Period of the 16th century. Even then, the spirit of the American Republic is the true symbol of Providence, civic virtue, accountability, freedom and laissez-faire that considers both labor contracts and private enterprise (not the Keynesian Anglo-American welfare-warfare police state that promotes prosperity, yet is in a trillion dollars of debt, condones the genocide of middle eastern non-Jewish Semitic civilians (many of whom are Christian) who are no match for American military technology, doesn't even have it's own production-manufacturing sectors, loans out it's own taxpayer dollar at interest, re-directs tax cuts to frivolous war and is really a puppet entity controlled by a global financial bureaucracy, which are the true illegal immigrants who produce nothing), if it wasn't, then there would've been no reason for America to free itself (which it was able to do, because the French & Spanish military defeated the British) from the Protestant doctrine of the Divine Right of Kings and the centralized bureaucracy that plagued(s) Britain. Furthermore, the French, Spanish & Portuguese did not settle the Americas in mass hoards like the Germans & Scots-Irish (Anglo-Americans are actually a minority) and they eventually would garner more interest in selling land if they could, rather than cultivating what was already a terrain not arable to the degree that North America is, even though Cuba and Argentina were on there way to becoming economic juggernauts until Marxist influences permeated those nation, which is a violation of the Monroe Doctrine. The identity of Britain has nothing to do with biology. It has to with influence, regional location, resources and the specific time period. Sound money philosophies that give economics a well-adjusted scope of perception, yet keep economics as a whole in perspective, such as laissez-faire & Austrian economics, clearly originated in Continental Europe.
The curious thing is just how few Americans seem to be aware of the fact that the ideas that drove the Founding Fathers had their roots in the English and Scottish Enlightenment. The Fathers had fought for the rights that they as Englishmen had ALWAYS regarded as their birthright and it was for this reason they challenged the British Government of the day. I reckon the rot started to set in as the American story became transmogrified into an Irish Catholic one.
That he is eloquent, articulate and has intellect is not in doubt, but that is by no means the same as saying he is correct in all things. You notice that while he is talking about people being deliberately vague (my phrase), he is cleverly responding to the character types of his audience but not once did I hear policy specifics. Whether 'left' or 'right' - almost meaningless labels now - there are many clever, eolquent speakers who get to the end of their presentation without saying much of substance. I do not dismiss him wholly, and in fact I agree with some of his comments strongly, but it seems to me that this a man working a crowd. It reminds me of, say, Derren Brown, who not only can work a crowd skillfully, but who can also explain as he goes along that that is precisely what he is doing.
Road to Serfdom in the USA began with Herbert Hoover "fiddling around" with Regulations and really ending the era of True Classical Liberalism. The people figured if Hoover was tampering with the system then we may as well go ALL THE WAY, and thus FDR became the hero of the people and ended completely any semblance of Classical Liberalism (laissez faire capitalism). Just my opinion but I know most Libertarians would agree if they've done their homework.
17:59 Prophetic words. That situation is now clear for all to see, and it turns out the technocrats weren't immune to the corruption of power either (Who'd have guessed?).
It is a shame that our voters chose the path of Europe and not the true American path! More spending and more debt doesn't cut it! Taxing before before cutting is a waste of resources!
Nobody is proposing to dispense with the market system. Should we all worry about elephant stampedes? Capitalism is alive and well in the good old U.S.A.. It thrives because U.S. governments create the frameworks necessary for it to thrive.
If my people, indeed, is the answer, IF they aren't ignorant of the wolf in sheep's clothing. Read and understand in Ezekiel 9 the responsibilities of His "my people".....to unmask and oppose the abominations of the day no matter the cost.
I keep hearing arguments along the line of "that's not real capitalism", and I can't help but think of the common "that's not real socialism" excuse. There is no system involving humans that will last long-term without imploding under corruption and shortsightedness. Some systems are clearly better at postponing the inevitable, however.
I would have to agree with this mans words views, I think One thing we the people have so forgotten is the powers of the Ballot or referendum voting...I think more so on the state level to Actions of the Elected tol be in check with the people of . As like What Was so done in Indiana back in the 2010 mid terms & the cap on the state tax code that passed, now if we could only get the City's Elected to respect such I think they would no longer be given them selves a Hike In pay & pension ETC!?
Good speech, mr daniel hannan, would you please offer your services to the trump administration? We desperately need a speech coach for our president, who is of right mind, but becomes tongue tied, and is atrocious at tweeting..re: "the kings speech"
One size never fits all,so whose size do we go with ? Greece,Italy,Germany,the Irish Republic,France,Rumania etc etc.We will go with the UK and leave this madhouse.
Just why those on the right, especially American have to fall back on religion is beyond me. Religion has never and never will offer any sort of solution other than control from a central edict - without it they cannot survive. I don't care what soap powder you wish to wash your conscience with and you can have as many imaginary friends to call upon as y ou wish but do not allow that to interfere with the wisdom of the modern message this very clever man expounds. We just cannot allow centralism to prosper be it in the form of religion, finance or politics (all to often one and the same thing. Keep religion as far away from politics as you can or you will find there is an equal price to pay as there is for not keeping politics as far away from religion as possible.

“Such legislation may have a specious appearance of benevolence; men readily believe to it, and are easily induced to believe that in some wonderful manner everybody will become everybody’s friend--especially when someone is heard denouncing the evils now existing in states, suits about contracts, convictions for perjury, flatteries of rich men and the like, which are said to arise out of the possession of private property. There evils, however, are not to the absence of communism but to wickedness. Indeed, we see there is much quarreling among those who have all things in common, though there are not as many of these when compared with the vast numbers who have private property. Aristotle; Politics; Book II. Section 5.
If you want to know how the founding fathers came up with such smart ideas, go read what happened during the constitution convention. After about a month of not making progress, they suspended it and went on a recess for 3 days to seek God’s guidance. That’s how they did it.
You say that there is separation from the governing bodies and the people and that the people need to stand up and vote, because they understand what is going on, yet you say in the end we need our elected officials to vote for the common good. In this day and age, with all the technology, the individual can vote directly. Obviously debt/interest is abusive, as Christ said. Given the chance, a vote for equal resource distribution to support life would be the vote. This is the only choice.

I love the awkward moments when Americans try and bring religion into an objective talk of any kind. Luckily the speaker has the skill (and tact) to bat the comments away without seeming like he is.
Again, we ought to reckon not only the evils from which the citizens will be saved but also the advantages which they will lose. Aristotle; Politics; Book II. Section 5 “Such legislation may have a specious appearance of benevolence; men readily believe to it, and are easily induced to believe that in some wonderful manner everybody will become everybody’s friend--especially when someone is heard denouncing the evils now existing in states, suits about contracts, convictions for perjury, flatteries of rich men and the like, which are said to arise out of the possession of private property.

There never was a free market and constitutional freedoms were always, at best, unevenly applied. This is edenic historical revisionism. The Founding Father's never lived up to their own promises. The small farmers, craftsmen, artisans, whites, blacks, Native Americans, freedmen and slaves that fought the battles for the 'aristocratic' Washington did not receive their fair share after their War of Independence. James Warren was shocked by Samuel Adams, who had been one of the most radical voices in a revolution whose rallying cry had been "No taxation without representation." when he called for the hanging deaths of Shay rebels from Massachusetts, who were protesting the state's unrepresentative levy of high taxes (to pay for the debts of rich merchants) The rebels were freeing small farmers who were being put in prison for being unable to pay these taxes! American ideology is truly a joke made to buffet the sane with idealizations by people that clearly don't understand their own history. "Rebellion against a king may be pardoned but the man who dares to rebel against the laws of a republic ought to suffer death." - Sam. Adams Bullshit. Washington was a king; same as George III was a king working for the British merchant class who, at the slightest hint of their own displeasure, could organize his exit just like they did with Charles I.
6:40 my theory is that leftists are using the greed of the capitalists and short sightedness to get the world in more and more debt until money loses all its meaning and value and we are finally able to understand that humanity does not need money profit or capitalism in order to thrive.
43:08 “anyone who disagrees with me must be an apologist for ” is also a very ideological argument that American conservatives use against liberals/leftists by lumping them with Stalin or Mao. I agree, it is a dangerous thing when people think they’re the owners of the whole truth and the sole truth of the world.

Lets have care of others, by lending a extended hand to assist a lift-up. Abraham Lincoln restated " A house divide against itself can not stand"
Samuel Matz As an Englishman I've never really been exposed to quotes from the American Founding Fathers but since I began looking into things like your 2nd amendment and related gun control debate I've come to think highly of them.
Abraham Lincoln took "A house divided cannot stand" from the Bible. Lincoln was a fraud and a tyrant who was owned by the railroad.
We need more people like him!
That's putting it succinctly; an understatement to be sure. lol
Brits amaze me with their appreciation of our government of the people and by the people.
Because we have government of the people by the government for the government.
Encouraging consumption but no productivity, and living beyond your means. 😮 Wow does that seem familiar. Then the treatment (bigger, more expensive, ineffectual government) is worse than the original problem (expensive ineffectual government). The inheritance of all this: current and future tax payers. “There comes a terrible reckoning.” Is very true.
Get rid of politicians who stay in office til they drop dead. Term limits.
Ann Long Either term limits or retirement by about 70. We don’t let old men pilot airlines so why should we allow them to run the government - arguably a far more difficult and demanding task.

@Der Gorghast Athenian style ostracism for Congress by popular vote. Unpopular politicians could be voted out of office and straight into a 10 year exile from the city when they really screwed up. This would be the fix of all DC corruption don't you think?
This talk is spooky; it presages so many things... Brexit, Jordan Peterson's talking about 'chaos', Trump as a public reaction to elitism...
Wish the audience were younger and have the opportunity to change things over our future lifetime
Daniel Hannan is an eccentric lunatic. His pronouncements on Brexit have proven to not only be completely wrong, but massively economically damaging. The UK economy is in an absolute tail spin as a result. The man should be standing before a judge and jury.
I can't believe I'm only seeing this now (seven years later). If only I (we) had awoken sooner... How have we let this continue to go on? The current state of our representative republic infuriates me soooooo much, what have our parents been doing, what have we been doing, how have we let it come to this? We have to fix this if our children and grandchildren are going to inherit anything more than serfdom under debt (and oppression based on group identify).
I thought that when God commanded Noah to take two of every kind of animal onto the Ark, male and female, Noah would reply, "But that transgresses the EU's diversity policy!"
Brilliant. Thank you.
Absolutely brilliant and unapologetic
The low social mobility in US and UK, there is a word for it: Serfdom.
Surprisingly, many people in their 20's and 30's are becoming Libertarians without even knowing why, and without ever reading Von Mises or Bastiat. IF you could get a kid to read Human Action by Von Mises he or she will be a Libertarian FOR LIFE because they will know WHY they were attracted to it in the first place. Now, try to get a kid to read a 900+ page book in the Internet age...
Not so impossible as you may think.
I am glad you as an internet person decided to read it...
Several "anarcho"-capitalists end up becoming social anarchists, because they realize free market libertarianism is a bankrupt ideology.
randy95023 absolutely!
Julia Riber Pitt Free Market Libertarianism "gets it right" for wealth creation and optimum production, but... It leaves the bottom 40% of the population at the mercy of the wealthy and the corporations. In a Dog Eat Dog economy we must not forget the Dogs that get Eaten! Von Mises and Adam Smith got it right as far as they went but we MUST take care of the poor and those left behind by a booming economy. Becoming a Social Anarchist is the tempting solution but we must find the right balance of the amount of 'socialism' that we insert into our economy. That Balance is what all the fighting is about, imo.
Julia Riber Pitt
Socialism never worked. Capitalism has for the last 20,000 years.
It's very depressing how closely we are following suit on the failures of Europe.
And trade with whom? There's nobody on the gold standard.
europe has long been under total hebrew financial control as well as political control....and this is what will always be...
Please take your useless destructive racism and fall off the edge of the Earth.
What's depressing is that the sane ppl of the US allowed Obama to continue to tack on even more debt after this was filmed rather than stopping him by voting his butt out of office in 2012! But noooo, the lazy elected him to office so they could become even lazier than they were 4 yrs previously! All they can think of is "What can I get out of the people who actually work for a living, hopefully more, I want $400 Nikes, I need an 85" flatscreen TV and hair weave & designer shoes & handbags!".
I just finished listening to
Hannon's Hillsdale College Presentation and as usual Hillsdale finds the best and brightest to brighten their students and the public gets to listen in.
This stands today August’2019 I loved the pray and say amen it is such a mess our uk Government so destroying the will of the people who voted out of the Eu
Imagine not being able to plant a trillion trees but increasing debt by a trillion euros with a snap of fingers.
Where are you going to plant trees where there aren't already trees------sarcasm. I doubt man could restore the land where he took all the trees. BTW-- I have no tolerance for those who make fun of God's word. God bless
The people who took the UK's A Level exams are now running the country.
Over the next 16 years the Conservatives want to lift the retirement age to 75, even though the life span figure has dropped and will carry on doing as the Spreadsheet life we are all expected to live by, takes its full effect. We are ready now for Robots as the system has no time for sleep, holidays or the weather. Sleep time and holidays are under threat constantly, and soon the Bill of human rights will end up in the bin to aid the Ideology.
In the Uk the votings system is corrupt to the point we need a new box on all forms with none of the above written beside it. If you have a voice they don't like you won't even get on the first list, and it's easy to have a voice they don't like. This handpicking of candidates has resulted in a remain leaning Parliament as planned.
Eight years later than this video and some say we left on the 31st March according to Common Law, and they are being denied a fair day in court to put their case, suffering sneaky behaviour by the Judges on the Remain Government's behalf. At no point have we seen Mr Hannan aiding this project in anyway whatsoever, yet he says he wants to leave. In comparison any Legal attempts to delay the process, have been hurriedly assigned a court date.
Today I read the Commencement document has been signed which tells the EU we are leaving, this may have been forced on them, as a new court date looms for the group who say "Hello, we've already left".
Here's hoping they have their day in court and Common law wins, and we can escape the nightmare they call the EU and settle down with the nightmare we call the Milk Snatching, Poll Taxing, Bank favouring Robbing Bastard Remain Conservatives, until the next election when there isn't a leader of any EX remaining party, that anyone would vote for, if there was another choice.
For 45 years the whole political system has been a facade, they've all been on Gardening Leave whilst the EU has infiltrated our State System and took over our everyday life. Now none have the training to run a country, they were expecting to be Full time employees of the EU very shortly, and the idea of Democracy would be resigned to History, the writing of which they have become expert at.
One of the 9000 unelected Remain Civil servants, says he'll have to leave the country if we ever leave, as then we will find out what he's been doing with the EU since the vote to leave, behind the countries back, sounds like Treason, a law Blair and Heath should have been tried under.
As being a member dictates you aren't allowed the assets to be able to think about starting out as a new country once again, such as not enough to start a bank again. It's a one way street deal. So my countries assets have been sold off to all and sundry, and bit by bit so as not to cause alarm, and the profit from these sales has been used to line their pockets.
Also our Gold stocks have been reduced from 1600 tons to 300 during the 45 years and would no doubt be reduced to zero, as you don't give a purse away or a country whilst it's full of money.
Starting out in such a position is dangerous as the policy had hoped, the thought they hoped, would put us off leaving, the longer we were members, it's been a game of praying for time, as they drain away our wealth in readiness for the big day, when everyone is skint enough to join, and I don't mean paper money.
The people can't be in a position to have a choice, is the goal. For many we are at that point, now.
Debt is now 100% of GDP, at 2T, add in all the other debts and it's probably 300/400%. It will be roughly the same in Italy and Portugal and ....
When we joined Debt to GDP was at 53% and rose like Al Gore's Climate Hockey stick shortly after, to the level its at today, with only a short blip when the Labour Party had the seat.
It's now at a level you could never imagine being able to pay back, whilst your manufacturing base was demolished as part of your membership, along with your Fishing Industry. Lets do the sums of what we've got left, no assets left 0£, 300 tons of gold, £9,900,000,000.
We can only Blame one set of people because we never voted to go in, it was their decision to take us in and keep us in and lie about it.
The road ahead would be paved in Gold one MP told us, in reality they have been living a lie for over 45 years, praying for time as they dismantle Common law in readiness for the EU rule book, and demolish the Democratic system, the deceit involved is unmeasurable, but it all might hit the fan soon.
The Founders' principle of separation of powers was inspired by Isaiah 63; the powers united in Almighty God (executive, legislative, judicial) must be separate at the human level to keep a balance.
Been an EU MEP since 1999. Hes been drinking claret toasting the EU for a very long time now for something he does not believe in. 20 long long years. You would have thought he would have done something else.
Omg this blew my mind.
Thank you so much for telling the truth,so few do.
And I think America should be bloody thankful that Trump became president and not that corrupt criminal Hillary Clinton
Go Brexit.
Trump 2020
Have you checked out Milton Friedman or Thomas So well yet? You may find them very interesting.
It worries me that the audience is mostly elderlies. Where are the younger people up to 40? They are the future.
Zhengyang Wu I’d say the educational system, combined with modern technological amusements, has failed to instill the proper mindset among students to become responsible voters. Its sad.
The debt is increased because that how the bankers like it because they are making ship loads of money out of loaning money that does not exist.

Incredibly intelligent man.
Daniel Hannan is an eccentric lunatic. His pronouncements on Brexit have proven to not only be completely wrong, but massively economically damaging. The UK economy is in an absolute tail spin as a result. The man should be standing before a judge and jury.
Many concepts & institutions that the British supposedly "invented" were either reverse-engineered from the Catholic Church university system (the same university system of today, which it did invent, and is also the reason why any European can write in his respective language in the first place) or the Renaissance & Enlightenment, which ultimately blossomed out of the Church-preserved influence of Greco-Roman antiquity. Britain may have one the best modern Naval forces the world has ever seen and has played an important role in putting freedom & education into action while making them widely accessible, but it did not invent the concepts of human-international rights or the foundations of science or economy, it just re-branded them and made them relevant to it's own time period. Even America's Founding Fathers acknowledge the many influences throughout circular history that would shape the Constitution & the Declaration of Independence, such as Cyrus The Great, St. Thomas Aquinas, the Roman Republic, John Locke; ect. A plurality of accredited historians would consider them "the last of the Romans". These ideals just weren't accessible to a large part of the population before the Renaissance, because Europe was in an extreme state of barbarism and backwardness, thus precipitating the need for a martial law mentality before the early Modern Period of the 16th century. Even then, the spirit of the American Republic is the true symbol of Providence, civic virtue, accountability, freedom and laissez-faire that considers both labor contracts and private enterprise (not the Keynesian Anglo-American welfare-warfare police state that promotes prosperity, yet is in a trillion dollars of debt, condones the genocide of middle eastern non-Jewish Semitic civilians (many of whom are Christian) who are no match for American military technology, doesn't even have it's own production-manufacturing sectors, loans out it's own taxpayer dollar at interest, re-directs tax cuts to frivolous war and is really a puppet entity controlled by a global financial bureaucracy, which are the true illegal immigrants who produce nothing), if it wasn't, then there would've been no reason for America to free itself (which it was able to do, because the French & Spanish military defeated the British) from the Protestant doctrine of the Divine Right of Kings and the centralized bureaucracy that plagued(s) Britain. Furthermore, the French, Spanish & Portuguese did not settle the Americas in mass hoards like the Germans & Scots-Irish (Anglo-Americans are actually a minority) and they eventually would garner more interest in selling land if they could, rather than cultivating what was already a terrain not arable to the degree that North America is, even though Cuba and Argentina were on there way to becoming economic juggernauts until Marxist influences permeated those nation, which is a violation of the Monroe Doctrine. The identity of Britain has nothing to do with biology. It has to with influence, regional location, resources and the specific time period. Sound money philosophies that give economics a well-adjusted scope of perception, yet keep economics as a whole in perspective, such as laissez-faire & Austrian economics, clearly originated in Continental Europe.
The curious thing is just how few Americans seem to be aware of the fact that the ideas that drove the Founding Fathers had their roots in the English and Scottish Enlightenment. The Fathers had fought for the rights that they as Englishmen had ALWAYS regarded as their birthright and it was for this reason they challenged the British Government of the day. I reckon the rot started to set in as the American story became transmogrified into an Irish Catholic one.
That he is eloquent, articulate and has intellect is not in doubt, but that is by no means the same as saying he is correct in all things.
You notice that while he is talking about people being deliberately vague (my phrase), he is cleverly responding to the character types of his audience but not once did I hear policy specifics.
Whether 'left' or 'right' - almost meaningless labels now - there are many clever, eolquent speakers who get to the end of their presentation without saying much of substance.
I do not dismiss him wholly, and in fact I agree with some of his comments strongly, but it seems to me that this a man working a crowd. It reminds me of, say, Derren Brown, who not only can work a crowd skillfully, but who can also explain as he goes along that that is precisely what he is doing.
Road to Serfdom in the USA began with Herbert Hoover "fiddling around" with Regulations and really ending the era of True Classical Liberalism. The people figured if Hoover was tampering with the system then we may as well go ALL THE WAY, and thus FDR became the hero of the people and ended completely any semblance of Classical Liberalism (laissez faire capitalism). Just my opinion but I know most Libertarians would agree if they've done their homework.
yep
17:59 Prophetic words. That situation is now clear for all to see, and it turns out the technocrats weren't immune to the corruption of power either (Who'd have guessed?).

Thank You
I'd like to see my grandnephew go to Hillsdale in 2014
Touchè!!🥂🏆
It is a shame that our voters chose the path of Europe and not the true American path! More spending and more debt doesn't cut it! Taxing before before cutting is a waste of resources!
I can't believe this is from 9 years ago.
Nobody is proposing to dispense with the market system. Should we all worry about elephant stampedes? Capitalism is alive and well in the good old U.S.A.. It thrives because U.S. governments create the frameworks necessary for it to thrive.
"The air is trying to rush out".
If my people, indeed, is the answer, IF they aren't ignorant of the wolf in sheep's clothing. Read and understand in Ezekiel 9 the responsibilities of His "my people".....to unmask and oppose the abominations of the day no matter the cost.
I'm a little misty eyed.
Thank goodness that Farage, Salvini and Trump has arisen to the annoyance of the permanent bureaucracy. It's hope anyway.
I keep hearing arguments along the line of "that's not real capitalism", and I can't help but think of the common "that's not real socialism" excuse. There is no system involving humans that will last long-term without imploding under corruption and shortsightedness. Some systems are clearly better at postponing the inevitable, however.
I would have to agree with this mans words views, I think One thing we the people have so forgotten is the powers of the Ballot or referendum voting...I think more so on the state level to Actions of the Elected tol be in check with the people of . As like What Was so done in Indiana back in the 2010 mid terms & the cap on the state tax code that passed, now if we could only get the City's Elected to respect such I think they would no longer be given them selves a Hike In pay & pension ETC!?
Good speech, mr daniel hannan, would you please offer your services to the trump administration? We desperately need a speech coach for our president, who is of right mind, but becomes tongue tied, and is atrocious at tweeting..re: "the kings speech"
One size never fits all,so whose size do we go with ? Greece,Italy,Germany,the Irish Republic,France,Rumania etc etc.We will go with the UK and leave this madhouse.
37:57 yes.

Just why those on the right, especially American have to fall back on religion is beyond me. Religion has never and never will offer any sort of solution other than control from a central edict - without it they cannot survive. I don't care what soap powder you wish to wash your conscience with and you can have as many imaginary friends to call upon as y ou wish but do not allow that to interfere with the wisdom of the modern message this very clever man expounds. We just cannot allow centralism to prosper be it in the form of religion, finance or politics (all to often one and the same thing. Keep religion as far away from politics as you can or you will find there is an equal price to pay as there is for not keeping politics as far away from religion as possible.

“Such legislation may have a specious appearance of benevolence; men readily believe to it, and are easily induced to believe that in some wonderful manner everybody will become everybody’s friend--especially when someone is heard denouncing the evils now existing in states, suits about contracts, convictions for perjury, flatteries of rich men and the like, which are said to arise out of the possession of private property. There evils, however, are not to the absence of communism but to wickedness. Indeed, we see there is much quarreling among those who have all things in common, though there are not as many of these when compared with the vast numbers who have private property.

If you want to know how the founding fathers came up with such smart ideas, go read what happened during the constitution convention.
After about a month of not making progress, they suspended it and went on a recess for 3 days to seek God’s guidance. That’s how they did it.
He thinks economists are cranks. Computer geeks make witch doctors look like Karl Popper. They’re also stubborn like mules
You say that there is separation from the governing bodies and the people and that the people need to stand up and vote, because they understand what is going on, yet you say in the end we need our elected officials to vote for the common good.
In this day and age, with all the technology, the individual can vote directly.
Obviously debt/interest is abusive, as Christ said.
Given the chance, a vote for equal resource distribution to support life would be the vote.
This is the only choice.

Yeah, they're completely fooled also.
Nice, UK is now out of the EU.
I love the awkward moments when Americans try and bring religion into an objective talk of any kind. Luckily the speaker has the skill (and tact) to bat the comments away without seeming like he is.
well to bad more prople didnt listen to mr hannan, were coming europe! lol

There never was a free market and constitutional freedoms were always, at best, unevenly applied. This is edenic historical revisionism. The Founding Father's never lived up to their own promises. The small farmers, craftsmen, artisans, whites, blacks, Native Americans, freedmen and slaves that fought the battles for the 'aristocratic' Washington did not receive their fair share after their War of Independence.
James Warren was shocked by Samuel Adams, who had been one of the most radical voices in a revolution whose rallying cry had been "No taxation without representation." when he called for the hanging deaths of Shay rebels from Massachusetts, who were protesting the state's unrepresentative levy of high taxes (to pay for the debts of rich merchants) The rebels were freeing small farmers who were being put in prison for being unable to pay these taxes!
American ideology is truly a joke made to buffet the sane with idealizations by people that clearly don't understand their own history.
"Rebellion against a king may be pardoned but the man who dares to rebel against the laws of a republic ought to suffer death." - Sam. Adams
Bullshit.
Washington was a king; same as George III was a king working for the British merchant class who, at the slightest hint of their own displeasure, could organize his exit just like they did with Charles I.

0:25 the loss of free market? The USA hasn’t had a free market ever.
6:40 my theory is that leftists are using the greed of the capitalists and short sightedness to get the world in more and more debt until money loses all its meaning and value and we are finally able to understand that humanity does not need money profit or capitalism in order to thrive.
43:08 “anyone who disagrees with me must be an apologist for ” is also a very ideological argument that American conservatives use against liberals/leftists by lumping them with Stalin or Mao.
I agree, it is a dangerous thing when people think they’re the owners of the whole truth and the sole truth of the world.
8 years later and the EU is still stronger wealthier and healthier than the USA....
