We trace the surge in global financial and US debt encompassing mind-bending US student debt, credit card debt, unfunded liabilities and more. Global debt is thought to be hovering around $300 trillion or even much more. How did it come to this? We explore this horrendous debt accumulation and the rise of central banking with filmmaker MORRISON. Morrison's work on Dennis Quaid's Grid Down won a Storyteller Award at DOC LA.
