thanks - I would recommend going to donOLD's video page here http://www.monetaryreform.com/MR/videoPage.htm and just watching a bit - the main three I would recommend would be the Money Masters, for a good hsitory of the basic struggle, followed by Money as Debt, the Grignon film from Canada which is very good, and also the Money Fix vid. This will get you into the ballpark pretty well. The Oh Canada one at the first is quite good too - it shows pretty graphically that even our MPs don't really have much idea about all of this. And I hesitate to keep recommending it, but I think it is a pretty good overview - my own essay What Happened? http://www.rudemacedon.ca/what-happened.html - there is a PDF you can download and print that you can take with you sometime you have to be on a train or bus or plane or something where you have a bit of reading time. I think it explains things pretty well.
