Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson understood "The Monster". But to most Americans today, "Federal Reserve" is just a name on the dollar bill. They have no idea of what the central bank does to the economy, or to their own economic lives; of how and why it was founded and operates; or of the sound money and banking that could end the statism, inflation, and business cycles that the Fed generates.

Dedicated to Murray N. Rothbard, steeped in American history and Austrian economics, and featuring Ron Paul, Joseph Salerno, Hans Hoppe, and Lew Rockwell, this extraordinary documentary is the clearest, most compelling explanation ever offered of the Fed, and why curbing it must be our first priority.

Alan Greenspan was not, we're told, happy about this 1996 blockbuster. Watch it, and you'll understand why. This is economics and history as they are meant to be: fascinating, informative, and motivating. This movie is changing America.

    If youre really an "economist" (as you claim) you should be able to articulate money creation no ? Its a pretty simple question. What consideration of lawful value is given up by the "banking" system when they purport to "loan" money to one of us? Why are you unable to answer this Mr."Economist"? Is it because if you answered truthfully, you would be forced to admit that banks give up nothing themselves when they falsify debts to themselves and that all you have been taught in school is a lie???

    The fed is just the regulator of the fraud/theft. The fraud/theft itself is the practice of "banking". The falsification of indebtedness to pretend creditors who give up no lawful consideration commensurable to debts they falsify to themsleves, is the issue... The problems "banking", not simply "the fed". If they "end the fed", yet continue on "banking" whats changed ? You still have "banks" issuing representations of peoples promissory notes into existence... as if those were debts to "banks"

    Article 1 Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution says the Federal Reserve is illegal.

    This documentary has such clarity. It's just like reading Murray.

    Interesting but unfortunately heavily biased. Failed to mention the three Republican presidents, Reagan, Bush Snr and Bush Jnr that ran up the money supply to unprecedented levels. Greatly increasing debt at the same time. At least Roosevelt put people into jobs and Clinton actually reduced the debt. And we all remember Bush Jnr, the American economy nearly blew up because of him.

    Meaning, theres no "Debt" to any "bank" (because theyre only pretending to be creditors??) Therefore our obligations (*our promissory obligations to each other*) are to pay down & retire paid principal (only P) from circulation to prevent circulatory inflation & to maintain integrity of our currency... Under "banking"(neo-slavery) we "pay back" a faux creditor intervening on all contracts falsifying obligations to retire principal, into artificial "debts" subject to interest "owed" to themselves
