Opie & Anthony: Louis CK Explains…The Financial Collapse – Part 1 of 3
Louis talks about the recession and the fucked economy. He also describes the man-made shortage of diamonds under the De Beers’ controlled supply. Louis later mentions the episode “The Giant Pool of Money” from This American Life on NPR, which you can listen to here: www.thisamericanlife.org Part 1 of 3.

@mophead2345 I’m pretty sure he means a headquarters not a store, it seems stupid that they could do that but everything is pretty stupid
@sniper6081 Because it’s still there. Good point anyway, later.
@gfuzzy Huh? Are you actually responding to a post made eight months ago? This whole thing is irrelevant to me now. I don’t care about this anymore. Why do people respond to posts this old anyway?
@sniper6081 Hurr,durr because you know it all pal.
hes way fucking smart than i thought he was…
Girls are cunts and they don’t care who dies for their fucking sparkles
Steal the bread, like a man!
Yeah, gold is actually scarce as an element. Diamonds are made of carbon, which is common. They can be grown synthetically now.
Ted the Jewel Hack!
….
Dear God, marry me.
who didnt know diamonds are a nasty thing people are idiots and they’re better off buying shinny rocks like a retard than investing in their life.
DIAMOND HATS!!!!!
i think when louis said have a garden so you have food, was probably the best advice
Not only diamonds. Roses cause droughts in African villages, gold jewelry is dangerous because of the environmental damage from mining, cheap chocolate is picked by children laborers… Nestle is evil. I don’t approve of any of the supposed traditional romantic gestures. Something about the downfall and destruction of human lives so I can have a gift kinda puts me off. Fuck a diamond ring or roses that die. I’d rather have guy give me orgasms over jewelry any day.
they need to come up with a car that runs on diamonds
This was surprisingly educational. I knew Louis CK was pretty switched on but this kind of thing – stocks, DOW index etc. – totally goes over my head 99% of the time.
De Beers is illegal in the US? Wikipedia says they are in: NYC, Houston, Beverly Hills, Las Vegas, Dallas, San Francisco, Honolulu, and other places. It is wikipedia afterall tho.
How did you find this video you shitcunt without seraching OPIE AND ANTHONY LOUIS CK?
“Girls are cunts and they don’t care who dies for their fucking sparkles.”
That is spot on. I have no idea what it is, not being too big on jewelry myself, but they get this childlike “I want it NOW” attitude about diamonds.
It’s pretty disgusting, even if you tell people they’ll just forget about it in 20 minutes
He must have met my ex. The fact that diamonds cost money and lives was lost on her.
Saving money is for jews
Favorite this video, show it to your fiance.
