Downloaded 'em! Got "Overdose" playing now... Not sure if I've seen them or not, but they're right up my alley. (Oooh! Gerald Celente! Love that guy!)

Topical, but not a film, you might like a series of articles I wrote on banking. They have some accompanying software (simple stuff - Windows, Mac, Linux, Web, Android versions) to go along with them to help demonstrate. This is the best place to start:

http://cynic.me/2012...reserve-banking-1-6/

The general category for them is here: http://cynic.me/tag/...nal-reserve-banking/

I add a couple new perspectives in there, but a lot of it has already been said numerous times before.

The last article in the series lists a number of documentaries and films that are similarly themed to what you've posted above. (They were also published at The Activist Post and reposted quite a few times, which made me happy! )

Bagus: The Tragedy of the Euro
Pdf version is free: http://mises.org/document/6045/

thanks for that.
FWIW I've tried to understand economics - mainly Keynesian vs. Austrian - a little better, but people seem to believe one or that other 100% and that's it. Make's it difficult for the noob ;-) Anyways, looking forward to reading that

If I would have to choose, I would go for Austrian School.

Do post back your thoughts on that. I'd like to hear. My reading load is a bit heavy at the moment. (Tragedy and Hope is my "fun" reading.)

-Renegade (August 06, 2013, 06:34 AM)

I liked it. No nonsense included - less than 200 pages. Explains why Euro was created in the first place and why the current system is flawed.
