Revolutionary Ideas Part 13 - Let's Print Our Own Money

Today's idea isn't actually as crazy as it sounds.  Lincoln did it.  Iceland is currently on target to be one of the only countries in the world that is refusing to use debt-backed money, as they assert that no bank is "too big to fail, let them fail".  I watched this film, "The Secret of Oz" (2010) which is #5 on this list of the top 10 films that explain why the Occupy movement exists.  Everyone should watch this.  Perhaps it'll be inspiration to form the "Real Bank of Nova Scotia"Get with it, Premier Dexter, grab that copper from Part 12 and mint your own "Dexter Dubloons" I'll even let you use my kiln! Then we can fund that mass transit system.

Please watch this!!! For the love of Canada! and then make all your friends watch it, and then let's pressure the govt to get rid of the big-bank-controlled debt-based money system which is at the root of our economic problems.  Really, we don't need to frack, we can invest our own money into refining renewable energy technology.   I don't even need to write about this topic any more, it's all in this film, with glorious solutions...

"The Secret of Oz" - 2010.  Such a lovely example of the importance of the arts as social commentary, the film discusses L. Frank Baum's "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz", published in 1900, which was actually full of references to the problems of the money system which we still face today.
