Only a sucker could think they would ever change the system of money but it's nice to know what's going on.

I was inspired by this post. Hope i get some votes

It's very sad that this hasn't had as many votes as it deserves... maybe it needs another go.

A truely worthy documentary, I think.

It's an incredibly informative video. If you don't have time to watch the whole thing at once you can find it divided into 5 shorter chapters on youtube, each about ten minutes long.

1. Corrupt Banking System - Cartels Robbing the Public
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfXavRTM4Fg
2. Corrupt Banking System - How "Money" is Created
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfXavRTM4Fg
3. Corrupt Banking System - Money is Debt
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yvRZoM-2r8
4. Corrupt Banking System - Monetary Reform
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0p8LepIuVM
5. Corrupt Banking System - Warning About the NWO
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PzXZ_Hs1g6U

I found the ending quite a let down from such a good intro. Their "new" systems were not very well explained compaired to the rigor of the previous segments...still worth a look and an upvote though! +5 informative

O, and the quote at the end is worth a mention here:

"We are grateful to The Washington Post, the New York Times, Time
Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended
our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost
forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan
for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity
during those years. But, the work is now much more sophisticated and
prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational
sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely
preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past
centuries." -David Rockefeller, 1991 Trilateral Commission meeting

I know, I know...
it has only been two days...
but this is important for everyone to watch.

seems like there should be an an economics channel

^ I mostly agree. Some people think the topic is cyclical, and because this is an election year as well as the current horribly ugly financial situation, we're more interested in it and maybe that's temporary?

I'm not sure. I haven't been here long enough to know.

^ I think that stuff like what this video talks about was more widely known there might be more people able would be better informed to hold their governments accountable for their actions. I think there could be a niche for documentaries like this one and other relevant posts to form an economics channel.

^Actually there's already a pretty decent playlist with 125 videos already....

Vandal hearts... anyone?

I saw this when it was originally posted and I watched it again now as a refresher.

It's pretty scary how people have known that this system is so amazingly bad and was bound to collapse for so long and yet nothing has ever changed (judging by the massive debt taken to pay off the collapse, I guess it's not changing anytime soon).

Makes you wonder what power government really has? Every time someone thinks about making change in power, they just say some candid quote and hope someone in the future is inspired? For all the very informed people quoted, it seems no one has made any significant change. (I didn't really research these people's accomplishments but it seems evident by the state of the world today).

That's what scares me most, it will take the power of the people and people are so very very slow at producing change. The one thing that really hits home for me is the quote mentioning how incapable the average person is of understanding exponential growth. I've encountered this a lot and when I say things like "but it's exponential growth!" and I get blank stares as if the word exponential didn't register.

I actually remember trying to make people watch these videos before and I could convince very few to sit through the 48mins, I remember being afraid even and telling the dinner table, "the economy is going to BURST! THE DEBT MONSTER IS COMING! NOOOOOOOOOOO!"...probably should of phrased it better.
