historical & modern information about currently dominant social institutions, while
also exploring what could be in store for humanity if the power structures at large continue
their patterns of self-interest, corruption, and consolidation.

Money as Debt- the must see animated short feature

"It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." ~Henry Ford
With an estimated over two million views online at various websites like Google Video and Youtube, the creator, Paul Grignon has done a masterful job explaining in the most entertaining way, a subject very few including those in the world of finance understand. This animated short feature production is a milestone achievement considering Paul is not a noted economist. He by profession is a Canadian artist who lives in beautiful British Columbia.  Lucky guy!
To quote Paul Grignon- "It is my intention to make this mysterious debt-money system comprehensible to everyone. It is also my intention to foster sufficient understanding of the problems with this money system that citizens will be motivated to join the monetary reform movement and/or create local alternatives to the global monetary system".
A little background
In the production process Paul was supported by four consultants knowledgeable in monetary policy and economics to validate his film's claims and contextual accuracy.  One of those individuals is a monetary historian and has been called as an expert witness to testify in cases against the banks in Canada's federal Supreme Court as well as British Columbia's Supreme Court.  So, don't dismiss this as merely an entertaining cartoon. 
Also, this film has not gone unnoticed by the experts.  For example, the American Monetary Institute in the USA also saw the animation. One described the film as: “far and away the best explanation of fractional reserve banking” he had ever seen. They requested that they be able to use it for their educational purposes as well.
As expected, there are some critics just as any film has, voicing claims of inaccuracies contained in the movie. As the subject matter is gen
