The current economic crisis is not a failure of capitalism, but a failure of culture. Generation Zero explores the cultural roots of the global financial meltdown - beginning with the narcissism of the 1960’s, spreading like a virus through the self-indulgent 90’s, and exploding across the world in the present economic cataclysm. Generation Zero goes beneath the shallow media headlines and talking head sound bites to get to the source of today’s economic nightmare. With a cutting edge style and haunting imagery, this must see documentary will change everything you thought you knew about Wall Street and Washington. Featuring experts, authors, and pundits from across the political spectrum, Generation Zero exposes the little told story of how the mindset of the baby boomers sowed the seeds of economic disaster that will be reaped by coming generations.

1We boomers are actually the “Finest Generation Ever”. We are the best and brightest and can be the only generation who will bring things together and perfect for a ‘bright big beautiful tomorrow’! Anyway this is what our teachers and parents told us. But they also told us we would have flying cars; cities on the moon, mars & under the sea. All disease will be cured, never war or problems to worry our perfect enlightened little heads about. Science will cure everything! We were sucker punched!

4I don’t know about that. Citizens United is the same name that did the Hillary Clinton movie/hit piece. Judging by the description it seems to be more of a Social Conservative backlash against 1960s.

5If this documentary asserts the idea that our country would have failed had those big banks not been bailed out, then all this is is propaganda. When a company or bank, no matter how big the balance sheet is, declares bankruptcy it moves to liquidate bad assets for what theyre actually worth. Things might have been bad for a year but we wouldnt have this serious monetary issue that were dealing with right now. Great Depression of 1920. Mises institute.
