The AMERICAN DREAM is a 30 minute animated film that shows you how you’ve been scammed by the most basic elements of our government system. All of us Americans strive for the American Dream, and this film shows you why your dream is getting farther and farther away. Do you know how your money is created? Or how banking works? Why did housing prices skyrocket and then plunge? Do you really know what the Federal Reserve System is and how it affects you every single day? THE AMERICAN DREAM takes an entertaining but hard hitting look at how the problems we have today are nothing new, and why leaders throughout our history have warned us and fought against the current type of financial system we have in America today. You will be challenged to investigate some very entrenched and powerful institutions in this nation, and hopefully encouraged to help get our nation back on track.

We have only one choice . we must end the role of the LANDLORD MONEYLENDER, TRY TO FIND A POLITICIAN WHO DOES NOT COLLECT RENT OR INTEREST,
Most 0f the time they are feathering their own nests,
Really good cartoon with story.
Just finished watching this. My 10 yro son actually sat down and watched it as well—mainly because it’s a cartoon. But he made an effort to understand it.
This doc is a little too dark for my taste, but I can see how it would appeal to perhaps a younger audience.
One suggestion I would make is to add a reading list at the end of the video or post it on this page so that people can do further study. Start with Ellen Brown’s “Web of Debt”, and other resources you used to create the documentary. I fear that too many young people are dependent on these videos (while they are very good and useful), but are not doing the much needed study to understand the issues at more complex level.
it was brilliant
smart doc dude!
if you americans succed to get rid off the fed, the whole world will love america, no doubt about it! even iran will love america. and the world will live at peace and harmony. especially when the venus project succed along the way. ahh.. just feel like lennon song “imagine”
yea man, i agree totally. I live in the us and i can’t say how much i dislike my government, and the fact that a private bank has us (and the rest of the world, by the balls.) I can totally see why most of the world hates us and i would love to see it all change. I’m going to push for a zeitgeist/venus project type society until the day i die. the way things are now are just total bs. and that’s the thing you have to keep in mind about the US… although it seems like we are all idiots, there are plenty of us that know that this is all shit, and we don’t like the things our government does in our names any more than the rest of you do.
haha sick film lets get those interbreeding red coat jew bankers and make em pay or at the very least give up there wealth..
stand by for a false revolution. lol
that was great.
funny and concise. Hope there is more to come from the creators.
AMAZING!!!!!!
Why has this video been removed from youtube?
another link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPWH5TlbloU
It has been updated.
No matter what religion the corrupted ones are – it has to get fair again. Please don’t focus on religion. The last time someone focused on religion we had 12 Million dead by Adolf Hitler.
Wow. That was great.
RON PAUL FOR THE PEOPLE
well i liked it.. but its very antisemtik.. coz the BAD GUYS are the ROTSHILEDS JEWS with long noses… sorry .. cant we do better then this !? or the Old Nazi stereotyping still works !?
hi there, thought that it was an accurate, but condensed, account of how the financial interests hijacked the US monetary system.
It’s not anti semitic at all. They never even make word of Jews. This is an attack on the Federal Banks. Those banks being run by Jews is incidental.
Well, it’s a little more complicated than that, guys. “The Ascent of Money,” is also on truththeory. Watch it. I haven’t studied this in great detail, but I find it more credible than this cartoon. Its discussion on Waterloo suggests a less deliberate course of events concerning financial innovation’s role in Waterloo. It contends that the view presented here actually began as Nazi propaganda against the Rosthchilds specifically. I would guess that’s what he’s referring to. I would like to say that how we got here, at least in terms of the historical details, is of less significance than the fact that we have these institutions, and this is actually what they do.
fantastic…the revolution is taking form, will it be violent or non-violent? How do we defeat such a controlling, manipulation, self serving, heartless group prepared to do anything to hold on to power non-violently? Bring on the revolution!!
well, in all honesty the only way to defeat these groups would be to execute every last one of them, including their wives, children and anyone associated with them. you’d have to wipe out three generations at once. the living grandparents, the parents and all their children. next the u.s. would have to make it a felony for political representatives to put their personal interest above that of their constituents with heavy prison sentences for those that do/have. lobbying would have to be outlawed and considered an act of terror. in reality, any other agency relationship where the agent put their interest above their client, they would lose their license, get fined, and probably go to jail. why does this not apply to these professional politicians?
you’d also have to wipe out the entire judicial courts, not just remove them from office, execute them, and remove lifetime tenure as it has obviously been a failure. life time tenure was given so judges made sound judgments based on the constitution. it is obvious they cannot, as they are too intertwined with the corporations.
the state would also have to make new legislation removing the artificial person status for corporations, and raise their tax rate back up to about 90% like it used to be.
to wipe out the american debt, simply call the scheme what it is, a fraud on the people, and force these bankers to be publicly executed. make it unlawful to use names like morgan, rothchild, rockefeller, and confiscate all their wealth and distribute it to the people they harmed the most.
their should be a forth branch, the branch of the common people that can enforce the constitution and remove those from power that try to usurp the government.
anybody thinking that peaceful means will bring this kind of change about is off their rocker.
the sec would have to be completely reformed.
nothing shy of mass executions would make such a scenario a reality.
the fact is, you americans just aren’t hungry enough. you still have your big gulps, your pierced bellys and tatoos, you’re still too self centered, and too ignorant from your lousy education system that intentionally made you that way.
your comment is epic, heroic, but laughable. Jared lee loughner poster child for the forth branch?
Jared lee, Derrik bird, raul moat, all got fucked by the system one way or another did you see the press coverage they got? hardly looking in to the gritty reasons as to what tipped seemingly normal people over the edge rather, lets take all the guns away! keep calm and carry on! they where born like it!
although maybe you have a poster of this dude on your wall at home.. Pol Pot; Pol Pot, (Khmer: ប៉ុល ពត), was the leader of the Cambodian communist movement known as the Khmer Rouge[3] and was Prime Minister of Democratic Kampuchea from 1976–1979. Pol Pot’s leadership, in which he attempted to “cleanse” the country, resulted in the deaths of an estimated 1.7–2.5 million people.
Pol Pot became leader of Cambodia in mid-1975.[4] During his time in power, Pol Pot imposed a version of agrarian socialism, forcing urban dwellers to relocate to the countryside to work in collective farms and forced labor projects, toward a goal of “restarting civilization” in a “Year Zero”…. tried… tested… Failed..
Maybe I’m being nitpicky. I know it’s not really the subject, but I’m not sure I would call the industrial revolution beautiful without any qualifications. The government was giving away lots of stuff to RRs and all kinds of other things, there was a lot of child labor, and federal troops were in the distasteful habit of murdering men, women and children who struck. I think its worth mentioning because, while I give it some slack for being a short film, it kind of implies that the Banks are the root of all evil, which of course, is false. They may be evil, but they are not the only source of evil. I’m also not sure that the financial paradigm was as important as technological innovation to the development that happened. I’m willing to admit it may have helped, but this oversimplifies too much even for a short film.
As a soon-to-be lawyer, I also strongly oppose the conclusory constitutional statement here. You can whine about John Marshall all you like, but he said the law when he held that the federal government had the implied power to make a bank. Yes, he was a federalist, and that probably influenced his decision, but that does not invalidate his interpretation.
And another thing. Killing the bank may have indeed been Jackson’s greatest achievement, but since the other thing he’s really memorable for is often described as genocide, he’s not entitled to all that much reverence. Of course every president makes good and bad decisions, but presenting history as a monolith is a major problem I have with this film. It’s also a stretch to call Jefferson a patriot and at the same time high-five Burr. Jefferson was about as dirty as the rest of them in some ways, and the rest were more noble than he at other times. I really do see way too much selective history here, and I think that’s a shame, because it’s not necessary to make a case against the economic paradigm. You can make an extremely strong case against this system without making declaring your own supporters the only heroes of history.
one thing is sure, i’ll prefere my kid watch this cartoon instead of disney crap one lol
You guys have noticed the fact that this video is posted made by a bunch of neo-conservative guys, right? Promoting free market, and trying to say that it is just a “bad apple” and talking about less government?
On their webpage it has links to Ron Paul, Glenn Beck, etc…
Note the very few “facts” this movie gives you.
I would not say this movie really explains anything.
This movie gives plenty of facts.. it doesn’t explain all, but a nice chunk.
No govt can please everyone, and humans tend to be bad at compromise. But Ron Paul has the people’s interest at heart the best he can.
I enjoy the devils advocate stance, but you’re a bit lopsided on the “discount this movie immediately” side.
You f*cking hippies. Get with the program. This movie is total bs if you ask me. Never had any problems with money. So maybe you poor people should just get a job. sjomps.
What goes on in the world is not based on just you. This country has a 14 trillion debt; the so-called free market capitalist system can’t create full employment for everyone who wants to work. It can’t even sustain a middle-class. Technological innovation means that more and more jobs will become obsolete. And the debt-based monetary system that’s been around for centuries is seriously antiquated. And yes, I have a job, and a household income that puts us squarely in the middle class, but I don’t allow my situation to blind me from reality. It’s time to change how we live. Greed and competition for money is wastes precious resources, and makes most people spend a major part of their life paying off debts. That’s a plane stupid way to live.
i hope you get broke and die from hunger under a bridge
