We keep hearing that the money we spend now and the decisions we make could place a huge burden on our children. But we rarely ask them what they think. So we convened a Small Town Hall. Marketplace's Scott Jagow sat down with a few kids to listen to their ideas about money, the economy and the future.

  • Nice video...This is obviously the level (maybe even prior to) where people should be learning about the economy, not when they get to 40 like me!

  • Haha, he would have gotten the same response at the presidential debates!

  • Deficit means that you are down in your balance. Example. If I'm Mexico and my trade partner is Brazil. If I buy more to Brazil that what I sell to Brazil that means I expend more than what I earn.

    You kids are all ok.

    Keep learning...

    Cheers!!!

  • a deficit is where you don't have enough money to cover all your expenses in which you try to cover by borrowing or in the US case printing more money
