Fun Stuff

Goofs:
Factual errors: (At 73:55) In the chapter 'Scarcity', the narrator states: "We don't usually pay for air and tap water, because it is in such high abundance..." But most of us do pay for tap water, with prices usually soaring after privatization (as is even explained elsewhere (at 42:10) in this documentary). more

A must-see for the 21st century citizen, 9 March 2009
10/10
Author: ladulaser from Stockholm, Sweden

This movie really opened up my eyes as to how we are trapped in a system that will inevitably fail. The only reason I haven't spent more of my spare time fighting it has been that I didn't know how to make the world function in a different way.

Ever since I was a little kid I have always believed that a) People should work together on agreed goals instead of competing with one another, and that b) Every necessity of life should be handed out to every single person - clean water, food, clothes, shelter, health care, education, electricity and means of traveling the Earth. Without anything demanded from them in return. When that is taken care of, luxury items can be produced out of whatever is left of the Earths resources and bought by those who choose/volunteer to educate themselves and work despite having all they really need at hand for free. Then I saw this movie, and got hooked on its ideas!
