This video has failed to make the easiest comparison for the mind to understand: those who can create money out of thin air ultimately exchange it for labor and real resources. Over time, small groups become disproportionately wealthy and privileged, and utilize their might to promote improving their position indefinitely. Promoting disparity, poverty, conflict can then attain even more labor and resources for same amount of wealth.

[@williemo44]

Close. Money is a metric of productive energy. The central banks supply this metric called money prior to using it to set forth that productivity. If the central bank misses the target growth is stifled and the money supply is increased by lowering interest rate. If they create to much they reduce the money supply by raising those rates. Money is printed, circulated, and then burned when removed from circulation. This is supply side economics.

(I have terminal cancer so unless this crash happens in the next year or so I likely won't be around to spread that message) Also - you should be stocking up on all the things you would normally buy anyhow - as the purchasing power of any $$ you have is dropping by the day and will drop dramatically when the US economy collapses. AS far as your kids/grandkids - If possible have them learn a few skills that are MORE in demand in the worst of times... that way they can barter their skills for room/board at least. Good luck!

ALL monetary systems are corrupt and will, by definition, create and benefit a social elite. capitalism IS moneyism. I've founded a new and unique philosophy called equalism which addresses, among other things, this very issue. equalism introduces a NEW way to view the world. for intance; capitalism and free-marketism are NOT synonymous but free-marketism and socialism are very closely linked. If anyone is looking for something truly original and different check out my equalism lecture series, in sequence beginning with equalism 101, on my channel. you can check out my latest video, just uploaded, equalism 118a: Wisdoms and Lessons of History (part 1) at this link - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXK4pGtnr5umhcU - (I've already uploaded Parts 2 and 3.) you never know, you all just may be equalists and not yet know it.

[@jcreedy20]

Don't forget that when you ring up for a loan and they ask what its for, and you say "living expenses" or similar?. They say your not aloud to do that, they won't give you the money, I've been told directly I have to be buying something with that loan. So collateral. They knowingly loan you the money so that if you default they get assets, if you pay it back, they get lots of interest and before you've even payed it back, they are loaning the interest that you have yet to pay, to other people. It's win win for them providing you are buying something material. So if you want to get back at the banks, just default on your loan and sell every material item you have at the same time, then... then! you will go to jail, possibly.

[@nsebast]

As an ex-banker and top 1% net worth. This is the way I think. It's not as easy as you said. 1. People has to have a lot of trusts in you to put your money with you. 2, you need to learn to juggle the cash-flow of your customers so they can take out their money anytime they want (Trust). 3rd. That £300000 house that you get maybe worth more in 25 years plus you can rent it out in that 25 years and get more cash. 4. You get to use that house NOW instead of 25 years later which is a lot of money. Is there value creation in this? For sure yes, without credit creation, there will way more less stuffs being made. That means less housing, less cars, less everything. And we all know how much you love that air conditioning and comfort and that iphone. A bank is no different than any other big business. When you have a good reputation, you can really gain a lot of advantage using that reputation. Learn how to use the system. I use the bank they made money off me but they also has made me richer. It's a mutually beneficial relationship. Banks are not evil, though it certainly can be misused by the people at the top. But this applies to every organization in the world.

Kyle: In a resource based economy, as proposed by Jacque Fresco of the Venus Project, there would be no shops or stores because there is no money. Virtually everything would be automated by technology, and it can also be used to create an abundance so that everybody can have free access to necessities like housing, clothing, and energy - and lattes. Technology is meant to free humanity from labor, and the problem is our system locks everyone not in the top percentages into all kinds of debt (student loans, mortgages, car leases, etc.) so that they have to have a job to pay those debts back. Get rid of money and we get rid of jobs and this abusive, exploitative system that only benefits a few.

[@fitzcavendish1302]

There is a misconception by most, including the people who created this excellent video, regarding fiat money. Fiat money is actually fine. Backing money with a precious metal, renewable energy, etc. is an absurd notion. The real problem is the fact that all money is created out of debt. In a debt based money creation system, those who create the money -- because of the interest attached to all money in circulation -- will eventually end up with all of the gold or whatever scarce resource is backing the currency. Breton Woods didn't fail because the United States overspent on Vietnam -- although that did speed the process along. Breton Woods failed because it was structurally doomed to fail from the outset. Again, if money is created out of debt, those creating the money (i.e. the central bankers) will eventually end up with all of the money, and by extension, the gold backing that money. Before money can be a unit of account or a store of value, it has to be a medium of exchange (i.e. an alternative to bartering). Whether or not that medium of exchange is backed by a precious metal is irrelevant. Medium of exchanges are suppose to be an aid in the conduct of commerce, not a lien on it. And by the very nature of our debt-based money creation systems, that simple principle is perpetually violated. As long as the debt-free medium of exchange that is agreed upon by the population is legal tender for all transactions, it does not have to be backed by anything. Abolishing debt-based money creation through central banking and fractional reserve banking is achievable one country at a time. There is a novel that solves this problem once and for all: "Kennedy's Revenge: The Election of 2016".

[@Olivia-W]

Fitz Cavendish Exactly. The issue here is more about who can issue it, and how; a debt-with-interest based creation causes a lot of issues, because effectively there is less available money than is needed to pay off the debts, so it creates an ever growing debt problem. It's not necessarily the debt that's the bad thing, it's the interest.

[@damok9999]

[@RiaSwiftHealing]

Thank you for that explanation. I never could make sense of the gold backing standard. Never made sense. You've just helped me realize my sense of it was correct. Appreciate your knowledge. There is a brilliant man, Michael Tellinger, from S. Africa who figured out a way to get off of money altogether. I understand why at one time we needed money, due to humans and their primitive nature, when we were. But now, we have all that we need and much more evolved. He figured out, using a town of 5,000 population, how much labor it would cost to have a contributionist society. 3 hours a week from each person to keep the town running. If we contribute what we have there is no need for money. I know the argument that humanity would never do that. I don't agree. If the town is running, all needs for the town to run are taken care of with each of us working 3 hrs a week then I can simply be a doctor in the community and open for business when someone needs my help. I wouldn't have to drum up business constantly, worry about all the things one worries about when running a business. If we each put in what we have to offer...we'd be fine. It would, in a sense, be a bartering system without the checks and balances. I find that when all people feel equal they are very happy to give of their expertise and time, when needed. Bartering still keeps us indentured to something as opposed to offering to the good of the whole.

"The Truth Will Set You Free, But First It Will Piss You Off! " - Gloria Steinem. Throughout history people have always had an amazing ability to make up fascinating stories and claims and an equal amazing ability to believe stories and claims without really questioning their authenticity and without examining any evidence to justify their validity. I was a teenager when I realized all religions and all gods are fictional stories. I felt foolish and started questioning why all the “smoke and mirrors” about religions and gods. I concluded that all these stories have been made up by an elite class of intellectuals used to control and govern people sometimes in beneficial ways but often times resulting in bad behaviors, conflicts and wars. It’s taken me a little longer to realize what a house of cards the modern economic and financial system is. I was well into my forties when I first started to learn how money is created. At first, I could not believe it. This was not what I was taught about money in my younger days. Once again, I felt foolish and started questioning why all the “smoke and mirrors” about money. I am hoping that the explosion of information technologies like the internet can help cut a path through the “smoke and mirrors” and inspire all of earth's citizens to behave and live together in fair, peaceful and sustainable ways . Ellen Brown has also researched the history of the banking and financial systems and has written books and has a website, blog and radio show ellenbrown.com/.

The interesting thing is that President Nixon took the USA off the gold standard while he was in office...money value is now based on an emotional response much like the stock market - which equals belief in what is true or going to become true.

As someone with a bit of poverty experience, I've found some awkward concepts: Powerful people, whether they know it or not, are the predators that thin the herd. Every different kind of animal in nature serves a purpose in their ecosystem. Humans run parallel to that paradigm in their economy. When an organism has no natural boundaries or enemies, all resources begin depletion. Relatively affluent middle-class first world citizens use far more resources and occupy more hospitable territory than their poverty-stricken counterparts. Anyway, I think you know where I'm going with this. Wealth consolidation is lethal. All living things need to be kept in check in order to prevent an Easter Island scenario. I've concluded we truly are a product of our environment. We're emulating nature through economy. In our minds, anything which uses us for sustenance is deemed inherently evil. What I am not certain of is what will happen once powerful people no longer need mass human labor. We know money is pretend, but, if said people have total control over all the resources and valuable land/sea/air/space/cyberspace, what will they do with the rest of us? The best answer I can come up with is to make us infertile.

[@granada1493]

Don't be so pessimistic, my friend. There is actually a very simple solution to all of this. Human suffering is not inevitable as the rich would have us believe: bring back gold and silver currency - which have intrinsic value - and eradicate interest in all its forms. Gold and silver is hard to manipulate financially, and retains its value even 3 centuries after being in use, thus making boom and bust impossible. Eradicating the smallest amount of interest will create a level playing field. That's all it would take. Learn more: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJezpKBpeNmIkLc (Look up this speaker, he's good).

You don’t need to work for the banks to profit from this system. As an example, you take out a business loan with good rates. Your business sells to people who use credit cards (bad rates) and (eck!) mortgage refinancing. You pay your loan off easily and profit from the suckers, many of whom stay in debt forever. Of course, most probably won’t recognize so clearly that they profit from others’ misery. They will, however, see much of the aspects that benefit themselves, e.g. their own loans and the fact that they got many customers when banks were lending hand-over-fist. So they semi-consciously endorse the system and resist any mention of what it cost others.

The problem is those symbols have so much faith and dependence put upon them that they can buy 'ownership' and 'power' - from something that is based on nothing more than a perception. A prception that debt will be repaid to the banks, with interest, and these payments are based in the production of 'real' assets (goods, services, labour)and creating a continuous, steady shift of power from the population (economy) to the banks. No wonder they get away with it. They not only own the whole show, they own the mechanisms which facilitate this system. And we all 'believe' in it. They are bankers, and you are not.

I wonder if someone knowledgeable reading this could help explain how payday loans (in particular in the UK) fit into this picture. This (excellent) documentary explains that when you 'borrow' money from a major bank, you are not really borrowing at all - rather the bank is electronically 'printing' new money so that your debt carries virtually zero risk to them. Given that only 40-odd banks have fiat accounts with the Bank of England which enable them to do this, yet there are more than 50,000 lenders in the UK 'regulated' by the FCA, where is the money these smaller lenders loan out coming from? Do they all have some arrangement with a bigger bank which 'prints' that money for them? Is it more complicated than this? As a person with very little income and considerable (well, in my terms) debts to both major banks and payday lenders (or whoever they have sold the debt to since I borrowed it!), I would love to understand where all of the money I owe actually came from. I'm having real difficulty finding anything concrete online after persistent googling. Thank you in advance for any clarity you can provide!

good documentary. reasonably well produced. fell short of clarifying the essential points here & there (animations would've helped).

I think money is backed by peoples labor, the fact that we have to pay taxes to our government, whether we want or not. So when money is created out of thin air and nothing backing it, we the people have to work harder to pay back the interest on that money to the creators of the money.

[@truthcrusade8371]

Fantastic, absolutely great! Thank you for making this wonderful doc. Will spread the word. In this day and age of free communication, people can and will be educated faster than ever. When the critical educational mass has been reached, MONETARY REFORM will be inevitable.

The more I learn about interest dealing, the more I realise why Islam has forbidden it.

[@alexandercummins]

Christianity forbade it too, but they did away with that a long time ago.

[@IbrahimAli-wq7xh]

Even Judaism which all believe in the same god!

[@alexandercummins]

@Din Mamma Yes it did it always did! Thats why christ came to the jews and told them they had corupted the religon. He threw them (the money counters) out of the temple! Judaism was the first religon to forbid interest. The jew's made plans and said they won't charge interest to each other but will charge interest non jews.

My dad always said "never pay for anything with a credit card". I followed his advice. Ive never even had a credit card. Ive never had much money so I couldnt buy a house. Ive always rented and stove and refrigerator are included. Im disabled and I cant drive. I never had to put out money for a car. I take buses. I wouldnt have been comfortable buying something on credit or taking out a loan. I would have been to scared. I use a public laundromat. And any small purchases, I make- food, clothing, personal items, cds etc I pay in cash.

Well done. We need to be aware and constantly reminded to live modestly as this Ponzi scheme can collapse at any minute.

"Under the National Socialists, Germany’s money wasn't backed by gold (which was owned by the international bankers). It was essentially a receipt for labor and materials delivered to the government. Hitler said, "For every mark issued, we required the equivalent of a mark's worth of work done, or goods produced." The government paid workers in Certificates. Workers spent those Certificates on other goods and services, thus creating more jobs for more people. In this way the German people climbed out of the crushing debt imposed on them by the international bankers."

I read all the comments and agree with many. My greatest concern is that ,it appears the writing is on the wall . Our financial system is flawed beyond repair. I fear for our children. I fear for humanity.

There is hope, do not despair. This is something to educate yourselves about how this system came about and how to fix it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJezpKBpeNmIkLc

Seems to be a strong connection between when banks were first allowed to provide Mortgages in the 1980s and the massive rise in total money and massive rise in house prices.

It took me until my early 30s to understand how money works. Thanks to the internet. (And ignoring people's opinions). The flow, creaton, and evaporation.... Since understanding this, I have not worked and "earnt more" than all of my younger years when I working my ass off... I understand working for this paper is just propaganda to get you to consume... Ignore the wants, focus on the must haves, to survive and you can thrive. Invest your money so it works for you, saving it is a waste of time. This is all these debt issuers do! Play their game! *Take risks with it, it's only paper* ! #And yah I hodl hard money 💰 Btc, gold, silver etc... These are my savings accounts when there's no easy investment to make.

[@justforthelols286]

exactly , you need to invest as much as you can to accumulate wealth because if you keep it in fiat currency it will lose its value as fiat currency is designed to lose its value. at the end of the day , this system is good for people that invest and know how money creation works therefore making them wealthier while the poor and uneducated keep working hard for their money but without the poor and uneducated there wouldn't much of an economy.... so it is all a game at the end of the day and the end-goal is to come out wealthier.

[@MrDeshaunWilkins]

A well-made documentary, congrats to that. I think it its attempt to explain how the current money system works it does a much better job than any academic literature. Even though, I think it is pretty clear that the bankers and the inaction of politicians are made responsible, which is portrayed very emotionally over the course of the film. I think the core message of this movie is that money creation by private banks is fueling a massive misallocation of debt and price inflation. I think this is an interesting thesis to have a discussion about, however, I don't like these general accusations against millioniares and this portrayal of traders in a bank. A trader has nothing to do with money creation even tho if he did make 10 billion a day, that might be another interseting topic if there is too much speculation, but IMO has nothing to do with the core of that movie. Anyways, great work, more of this.

If watching this made you wonder how you can escape the debt driven fiat monetary system, I encourage you to research sound money and Bitcoin.
