We're off to see the Wizard

How much do you know about our money system?  Do you even care how it works? Who is in charge of printing our money? Is it possible to print off enough money to pay off our national debt?  Who was the only President in U.S. history to pay off the national debt, and how did he do it?
Should we go back to the gold standard? Why in the world did President Obama give so much of our tax-payer money to bail out the banks have been deemed "too big to fail"?  Should we let them fail, and why? Where did we get the term "greenbacks"? Who was William Jennings Bryan and would we have been better off if he had been elected instead of William McKinley? Can the problem of poverty ever be solved?  What does North Dakota and Iceland have in common? Which king of England allowed the people to pay off debts using sticks? Yes, I said sticks. And, what in the world does "The Wizard of Oz" have to do with any of this?


I just watched this full length film which I received as an email.  It is fascinating and interesting. I strongly believe that every American should see this. Not only every American, but every person. (If I say "world-wide" will you think I'm crazy?) 


It will take up almost two hours of your time. But, I am pretty sure you will be amazed if you take the time to watch it. I hope you do.
