    Don’t be fooled by stupid rubbish comments people. These Zeitgeist films are complete in there efforts, to make you think, they give you facts, for you to see and help you educate yourself, Its all fact….^V^!!!

  • Tobi

    Yes,—as videoeyes says: “(…) it’s all fact”. If you don’t ‘believe’: then do some research for yourself.

    Really worth watching this doc’ if you care about something.

  • RATIONAL OPTIMIST

    This is superb. He does prove that the system, all human monetary systems are and have always been inherently corrupt. Watch this people. Do you really want to live under the shadow of corruption your entire lives??? And, Canadians, pull your head from the sand or snow because you did not dodge this with clever bankers. Your system is just as corrupt as the one south of you.

  • not convinced

    hard to trust a doco when it seems so damn biased it hurts. i’d like more details, rather than weak statements about the possible technologies that may occur in the future. i agree with the banking system, but a resourced based economy? come on… also the human nature argument is outrageous, it comes down to the old argument of nature vs nurture. theres no way you can say that nature does not play a part and its solely nurture, so if theres no scarcity there still wont be fucked up people in the world. im in favour of a fixing the monetary system, or another suitable system that isnt so radical. even if things are bad, going to an extreme measure is never the solution.

    • Penseur

      Bear in mind that the only thing that makes the proposed solution such an ‘extreme measure’ is that its implementation would do away with the very monetary system that we are currently using. Its for the same reason that most people in the urban world have heard the term ‘anarchy’ but few have heard the term ‘stateism’. The implication is that statism with all its hallmarks is the universal norm as with a monetary-based economy. Honestly, I think either can work. One will have certain side effects while the other will have other side effects. Since we are implementing the monetary system now, we already are well aware of its side effects. We can also make educated guesses about the side effects of other feasible unimplemented ideas. Until we try them though, we will never know which is preferable. The real riddle of the resource based economy is how it can be initiated. Its maintenance is very easily imaginable but its initiation, especially when switching from a monetary-based economy, is a real riddle. Just because America goes off the ‘grid’ does not mean other nations will follow suit.
