Money, Banking and the Federal Reserve

Posted On September - 04 - 2009

Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson understood "The Monster". But to most Americans today, Federal Reserve is just a name on the dollar bill. They have no idea of what the central bank does to the economy, or to their own economic lives; of how and why it was founded and operates; or of the sound money and banking. This extraordinary new film is the clearest, most compelling explanation ever offered of the Fed. Watch it, and you'll understand why. This is economics and history as they are meant to be: fascinating, informative, and motivating.

Bill Hicks: The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey - don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride...Funny political satire WARNING ADULT HUMOR

Author Fay Weldon sets her latest novel only four years in the future, but by then sterling has collapsed, inflation has soared and the bailiffs are knocking on the door of London's middle class.

"Chalcot Crescent" is a bleak vision of what might happen if hopes of a global economic recovery turn out to be false.

The story opens with Frances, an 80-year-old writer and "one-time national treasure", cowering in her home as the debt collectors pound on her front door.

The fact that the book is named after a street in London's upmarket Primrose Hill, home to the rich and famous, underlines Weldon's belief that no one is likely to be spared "It seems to me a perfectly possible outcome within four years," said Weldon, a leading author most commonly associated with the feminist movement.

"Unless we are very, very lucky, there will be a double dip, there will be inflation, there will be a collapse of the currency so you go back to bartering between nations," "barrister classes" are already feeling the pinch in the real world.

"I think everybody has felt it and everybody is now in the recovery which is the false hope. Of course, I hope it's not the case, but for the sake of the writer you kind of want it to come true, I'm afraid."

Key Points:

the Shock of 2008 is followed by the Crunch of 2009-11, a brief Recovery of 2012 and then the Bite of 2013.

The novel blames the younger generation for economic collapse that has brought the country to the brink of anarchy."We brought freedom of thought, sexual liberation, imagination, creativity, wealth," she muses. "They just spent."

Some good could come of the recession, particularly for women."People are trying to have families rather more, because if you can't spend you have to look at the family and the household you live in and make it agreeable and that might, in the long run, be not a bad thing.

Chalcot Crescent is published by Corvus on September 1.
