heads up

If you still don't understand the current financial crisis, I recommend that you take a look at "Money as Debt", and listen to a radio documentary put together by Chicago Public Radio and NPR called "The Giant Pool of Money".

"Money as Debt" is a primer on money creation/monetary theory, and "The Giant Pool of Money" is an entertaining look at the specifics of the crisis, and includes interviews with people all the way down the chain.

It's a starting point anyway, and should provide you basis for asking more questions about the crisis.
