Paul Grignon's 47-minute animated presentation of "Money as Debt" tells in very simple and effective graphic terms what money is and how it is being created. It is an entertaining way to get the message out. The Cowichan Citizens Coalition and its "Duncan Initiative" received high praise from those who previewed it. I recommend it as a painless but hard-hitting educational tool and encourage the widest distribution and use by all groups concerned with the present unsustainable monetary system in Canada and the United States.

    There's a detail I dont quite understand yet about money as debt. Can someone explain to me how banks, who make money out of nothing from debt, can get in trouble (or ask for bail out) when loans they make go bad?

    thanks

    1. The IRS is not a U.S. Government Agency. It is an Agency of the IMF.
    2. The IMF is an agency of the UN
    3. The U.S. Has not had a Treasury since 1921.
    4. The U.S. Treasury is now the IMF.
    5. Social Security Numbers are issued by the UN through the IMF
    6. You are an "Institutional Unit" in which your body and labor are pledged to the UN through the IMF

  • Well, the ...

    Well, the government could print its own interest-free money for one thing (idiot).
    If you watch watched each segment of this you would know it doesn't condone a return to the gold standard.

    You're full of it though; having a limited amount of money with intrinsic value isn't a bad thing, it makes society live within its means. Gold, like goods, requires human effort to produce, promoting price stability. The more currency simply printed (by clown like you) the more worthless it becomes.

  • The run matters ...

    The run matters because if a bank has x dollars worth of gold deposited, they loan out claims for x+y worth of gold. So if all depositors decided to pull their claims on gold, the bank would only have x dollars worth of gold on hand, and the claims would be larger then the actual reserve, (x+y) This is a bank failure, and the people holding claims not backed by the reserve, have lost their money.

    Why does run on bank by depositors matter, if banker make loan out of thin air to lenders? Surely, the depositers gold is safe; where would it go? The video doesn't appear to say. That's odd.

  • How would the ...

    How would the government function without the federal reserve? The government needs money for war (war is an example only) and all kinds of things. If we had money backed up by gold then there could only be a limited supply of money which would mean only one thing, the amount of dollars in circulation would have to equal the amount of gold. Thus, the value of the dollar would go up??? What would happen to the people with lots of money? Maybe an IOU for when ever we dig up more gold? No past.

  • This is a complete ...

    This is a complete bull crap. Central banks do not lend out money to general public, therefore the example of lending money to a private entity Mr. or Ms. Smith does not click. Central banks lend money only to regional banks, and its the ignorance of all You people who try to justify their lack of entrepreneurship that helps rich get richer.

  • This is a good ...

    This is a good explanation of the money system, but it would be best to also learn about the economic system as a whole, and how capitalism is inherently an "owners get richer and workers get poorer" system. Learn the history of capitalism and how a class of workers without productive property (us) came to exist. Our property has been stolen from us, not only through banking, but 400 years ago through violence and force, and since then through imperialism and the wage system.

  • The most ...

    The most frustrating thing about this is that the general public either:
    1) Don't know about it
    2) Wouldn't begin to understand
    3) Just don't care.

    The third one is what frustrates me the most. As Hitler put it, "So fortunate for leaders that men do not think."
