Why We Fight

Why We Fight describes the rise and maintenance of the United States military-industrial complex and its involvement in the wars led by the United States during the last fifty years, and in particular in the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. The film alleges that in every decade since World War II, the American public has been told a lie to bring it into war to fuel the military-economic machine, which in turn maintains American dominance in the world.


Maxed Out

This film raises awareness of how credit and lending issues are affecting society. The main premises of the documentary is that banks and other creditors deliberately market to people who are more likely to have problems paying and that the creditors benefit from connections to government, the debt collection industry, and from lawmaker apathy.


Money as Debt

Paul Grignon's 47-minute animated presentation tells in very simple and effective graphic terms what money is and how it is being created. It is an entertaining way to get the message out. A painless but hard-hitting educational tool that presents the unsustainable monetary system in Canada and the United States.


The Money Masters

This film argues that the profit from issuing money is currently being used in the United States to benefit a few wealthy individuals. It goes further and argues that this situation should be remedied, so that the profit benefits the public good, as during four periods in the history of the United States. Finally it presents a bill, the Monetary Reform Act, to implement such a remedy. As support, the film provides many quotations from notable figures including economists, members of the financial system, kings of England and United States presidents.
