Prisoners of Debt: Inside the Global Banking Crisis(1983)

The Biggest Game in Town - 2000(en)

An eye-opening look at budgetary disclosure practices of local US government agencies. Typically referred to as the 'budget' or 'budget report', a one-year presentation document; the discussion is framed to avoid any reference to the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, the CAFR, the same local Government's Statement of Net Worth that shows the wealth that has built up over decades. This is the biggest shell game played in government finance. Selectively created budget reports are presented to the population and the CAFR is never mentioned, hiding the true wealth held by local cities, counties, states, universities, and enterprise operations.

He interviews single moms facing foreclosure, Nobel Prize winners, professional poker players and US Congressmen. How did we dig such a big hole when it comes to our retirement, money and investments? We all want to retire, we all want to provide for our families, but Covel's film paints a picture that trusting the government, TV shows, big brokerage firms and mutual funds is not the way to go.
