A “Must Watch” Online Movie
If you go to the Blogroll on this page you will see a new link to “Money As Debt.” It is a 47 minute long film (actually a cartoon) with a terrific explanation of how money and debt are created in the modern world. I kind of generally knew the stuff it talks about, but it really brought it home in a very enjoyable (albeit scary) way. It will be well worth your while to set aside the time to watch it.
If my link doesn’t work for you for some reason, find “Money as Debt” somewhere. You will not be sorry. My only quarrel with the film is what it has to say about the future. When it talks about the past and the present, though, it is literally and figuratively right on the money.
