This is quite the shocking film about the US economy and the exploding US national debt, what Reuters characterized as "[t]o the U.S. economy what 'An Inconvenient Truth' was to the environment.'"
One thing it does so well is to use animated graphs and charts to illustrate the numbers when we start talking about billions and trillions of dollars. It also places these figures within an historical context (current indebtedness compared to during the Civil War, New Deal, etc.).
Below is the condensed 30-minute version; the full-length film is currently showing in theaters nationwide and is available via Netflix, etc.
