Hello  Everyone

 

This is a Forum I am assisting in. It will be held in Kitchener's City

hall on Saturday November 15th and is free of Charge.  See details

below.

 

We see all the media coverage on the state of the World economy but no

one is talking about how we got to this current situation. It is time

to band together and discuss how the Financial Movers and Shakers have

caused all this economic fear!

 

Of all the events I have been involved with over these many years I

cannot think of one that is more important than this Forum.  I

strongly suggest you mark your calendars now. Join like minded people

who want a better world!

 

Please let me know by RSVP if you will be joining us. This event will

be life changing!

 

Peace!

Gary Jones

OUR Community Dollar

 

Please forward this to as many people as possible

11:05  Intro of the Feature Movie Money by Isaac Isitan (65 Minutes)

 

About the Movie:  In 2001, Turkish-born Canadian director Isaac Isitan

watched from the comfort of his living room as thousands of people in

Turkey and in Argentina took to the street, attacking the banks when

their life savings evaporated overnight. Middle-class people who once

lined up at the bank were now lining up at food banks. How could these

relatively wealthy countries possibly go bankrupt in less than a

decade? With this question in mind, Isitan takes us to Turkey,

Argentina and the U.S. in a moving portrait of citizens who have lost

everything. Interwoven with these stories, a lucid essay dissects the

the macro-economic policies, demanded by the World Bank and the IMF,

that have plunged entire nations into economic crisis. Faced with a

lack of money, the people have begun to reinvent it, initiating credit

and barter systems and inventing local parallel economies. An

essential and incisive look into the hidden side of money.
