By now, you may have heard about our acclaimed documentary I.O.U.S.A., a film that boldly examines the rapidly growing national debt and its consequences for the United States and its citizens. The film has been a huge hit, getting rave reviews from Roger Ebert and others.

Now, we proudly release a 30-minute condensed version of I.O.U.S.A. designed specifically for watching and sharing on the web - for free.

So if you haven't had a chance to see the movie yet, watch the condensed I.O.U.S.A. today. If you've already seen it in a theater, check out the abbreviated version for a refresher. Then, tell your friends, your family, your Facebook friends and your Twitter followers about the staggering amount of money - $53 trillion - in financial obligations owed by the federal government to foreign investors and to every single American in the form of pensions, health benefits, Social Security and Medicare.

Then, visit http://www.IOUSAtheMovie.com and join us in our Fiscal Wake-Up Movement. Together, we can make American fiscal responsibility a reality.

You can now own I.O.U.S.A. on DVD! The newly released DVD, with 125 minutes of bonus material, now enables even more concerned citizens to learn about the state of our countrys finances and take action!

Available at a local retailer or online at http://www.shoppbs.org/product/index.... and at http://www.amazon.com/i-o-u-s-David-W...

    I remember when this movie first came out and nobody talked about the debt and deficit back then. I wonder what would happen if it was revised and rereleased for 2013? Hm...

    I'm only a few minutes in so I don't know if it says, but what happens when this is all too much? What's the climax of this debt crisis?

    "I'm under the assumption that everyone borrows money from us" HA. I feel that we the people should be more educated in this matter and realize how much debt we have with the world
