Today, most of our money is created, not by governments, but by banks when they make loans. This audiobook takes the listener step by step through the sausage factory of modern money creation, explores improvements made possible by advances in digital technology, and proposes upgrades that could transform our outmoded 19th-century system into one that is democratic, sustainable, and serves the needs of the 21st century.

About the Author: Ellen Brown is the founder and chairman of the Public Banking Institute and a fellow at the Democracy Collaborative.

Liked clarity of explanation of system used to place money at the service of all humans to provide for food, shelter and education instead of a casino for trying out financial instruments to benefit the .01 or less leaving no funds for pay for infrastructure development. These funds are provided as credit for productive agricultural or industrial productivity.

Once again, Ellen explains tough subjects in common words and clearly shows how messed up our banking system is and how it is controlled by a few. Her solutions are tangible and should be evaluated by all governments (or people) looking to have a system that is fair for all.
