Scarce Money – Abundant Problems — on It’s Our Money
IT’S OUR MONEY with Ellen Brown
Scarce Money – Abundant Problems
Public acceptance of unacceptable conditions produced by a privately-controlled money world has institutionalized struggle and sacrifice through unnecessary monetary scarcity. The growing worldwide call for public banks is helping create a new expectation – that money is a common utility that all people have a right to and that retaining public control of it for public purposes is simple common sense. On this program the benefits of a proposed public bank in New Jersey are illustrated in a new academic report from Distinguished Professor of Economics, Dr. Deb Figart, who speaks with Walt McRee about her recently completed study findings, while Ellen discusses the impact of neoliberal economics on the hardships being inflicted on students in higher education. And Bob Bows offers another look behind the curtain of monetary control driving today’s global conflicts. A Public Banking Institute Presentation.
