An EXCELLENT video about money. It's perfect timing!

THis is an excellent video to show to your economics classes. Divide it into three viewings to allow for discussion. This is easy to understand and it does a great job of explaining the notion of Money as Debt. Watch it the entire way though, of course, before you show it to your classes, but be ready for some great discussions!
