    I am a 28 year old guy. No background in Economics and finance. Just out of interest started researching what is money. Read 3 or 4 books. Saw 3-4 documentaries like this and already ahead of almost all the people i know of how and what money is. Thank you for sharing this.

      8 years later people still sleeping and the world going down the drain in the face of a severe debt crisis that will led into a hyperinflation scenario. Contrarily to the position held in the video, the solution will not go through a control of the private bank system but rather through the utilization of a new standard based on a real money (gold or bitcoin). In the meantime, we are doomed without a chance of avoiding drama

      Anger is exactly what they want you to feel, because it's unhealthy. The sicker you are, the more of a supplicant you are. I was angry about this for 20 years. Replace your anger with pride and joy for the bankers. Think of them as James Bond villains controlling the world, and they become fascinating and alluring; your health improves; you devise ways to become elite yourself so you can secure your own family. Anger and sickness is just what they want for all you poor working slobs. Then your happiness will have to come from Amazon products, preferably bought on credit.

    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
      @williemo44 9 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      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.

That means my wage is 3x less than what it used to be 30 years ago and to make it worse, work is even harder! What has happened is minimum wage went from £8 an hour down to £2.66 hour in 30 years and we're working even harder for it. I call quits.

      Awww I know - I think we all feel pretty powerless to do anything to change all of this. I will say this - when the current system totally implodes - we should all go out of our way to NOT vote back into office any of the politicians on either side of dems or republicans - we need all entirely new politcians not already controled/owned by corporations/bankers - possibly you can help me spread that idea when the time comes. (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.

      the bank doesnt care if you pay everything but the last dollar or not because they own the house or whatever no matter what even if paid off you still have to have homeowners insurance and pay taxes every year.

      EXCELLENT documentary. but its solutions are just as flawed as the present system. there are NO capitalist solutions to capitalist problems. 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 - th-cam.com/video/oAUs81z6sOc/w-d-xo.html - (I've already uploaded Parts 2 and 3.) you never know, you all just may be equalists and not yet know it.

      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.

      Ricky Bobby - The fed creates the money and gives it to the bank. In exchange the bank deposits treasuries (or other assets)with the fed. At the end of the term the bank repays the money with very small amounts of interest. At this point the newly created money is destroyed and the collateral is returned to the bank.

      Money has been created from debt since we left the gold standard....there are advantages and disadvantages to this approach.....but it’s the approach that every modern economy uses.

    Actually I think the full story goes "When banks loan, it's like me printing £300000 at home with my printer, lending it to you in exchange for your next 25 years of labour. By the time you've paid me back (interest aside), I will be £300000 richer than I was before I printed that money. Did I contribute to economic growth by producing anything ? No, I became richer simply by printing the money and somewhat laundered it by lending it to you. Today, I can purchase the product of your 25 years of labour with the money you paid me back".

      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.

    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
      @Olivia-W 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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.

      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 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. It's actualy quite brilliant.

    I could never understand why governments need private banks. The myth is that when governments own the banks the money is worthless, but with private ownership of a nations banking system it works.. This is the real con.
    There is absolutely NO reason why all nations should not own and control the banks and thus all the profits stay within the country for the benefit of the people. The perfect opportunity arose with the 2008 bank bailouts, which should have been buy outs or better simple nationalisation.

      @BRYAN LEWIS: It is expained in this video what is the difference. It is even better explained in the 'Princed of the Yen' movie. When a gov prints money, there is a greater amount of currency in the system, but the same number of goods and services available on the internal market. If those money are given to the people to spend on those goods, there an inflation will arise and those goods will raise their price soon enough. But, if the gov spend those printed money on productive business, although sooner or later, an inflation may arise or a currency devaluate if money are spent on the imported subproducts, technologies, etc..., the productivity of the country will rise, therefore in short notice a number of goods and services would rise proportionally to the number of currency available on the market. In a post war Japan it boosted an economy of Japan, but after an economy crisis in 90's, the gov has changed its politics and has lend money from the international banks that brought a greatest debt in the whole world, but this time productivity hasn't been raised, quite contrary is has been diminished for a years while a bubble being created. And the debt has an interest that has to be paid to the lenders.

There are no constants, especially when you have a shadow organization increasing money supply in obscure, undefined, and complex ways. We only see the result and it is very difficult to work backwards and determine causation. Compounding this is the fact that central banks are not transparent with their practices, nor are they accountable.

    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.

      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:

Inflation ensued so price controls resulted. Later President Reagan deregulated the banks, and debt spending grew in the 1980's. This allowed Bankers to group conservative investments with high risk investments. A friend of mine commented that AIG almost took down the entire system with these types of investments.

    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

      sneaking_ weasel yes I am actually. Unfortunately it is. That’s the main problem. The majority of people can’t grasp or comprehend anything other than the system we have now. Even just the idea of simply getting rid of money is very hard for the average person to comprehend or grasp which is a huge problem. If we don’t get rid of money I fear there’s no hope for our species.

      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.

    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.

    The only mistake this video makes is that commercial bankers are not "doing as they please". They are heavily influenced by bureaucrats at the treasury and central bank. Every major decision banks make have to be signed off by these bureaucrats. Even during the 2008 housing bubble, they were heavily incentivized by the central banks. If it wasn't for the central banks, there wouldn't have been a housing bubble
