While I find your link interesting and provocative, I have some serious reservations about the accuracy of it. The producer of the video is a graphic artist and NOT an economist. Neither is he a historian. He's just a guy with an opinion. Further, I think he is a guy with an agenda. There is a strong whiff of conspiracy mentality in his film, with more than one reference to "world bankers" and the "Trilateral Commission." There is also the slight stench of anti-Semitism. In all, I don't think this is a film worthy of serious academic consideration. Take it with a VERY large grain of salt.
