TEDxBlackRockCity - Hollis Doherty - The Woergl Experiment and the Evolution of Money

Hollis Doherty is a writer, actress, and currency activist. A lifelong passion for protecting the Earth's natural resources led her to a Biology degree at the University of Colorado. When she recently discovered the true story of the currency experiment during the Great Depression in Woergl, Austria, she flew there to research and ultimately write a screenplay, "The Miracle in Woergl". The script has been optioned and has a world class Director attached. Hollis believes that to get to the root of our sustainability problems we've got to transform our monetary mechanisms. http://hollisdoherty.wordpress.com/

Wow! I was working on a script where young people created their own money but I thought it was just fantasy I created. Thank you for your talk on the reality of what I thought was possible.

It's call inflation. All central banks work hard to defeat inflation in all economies.
