★★★ · Try buying a can of soup for a dollar NOW! · Spuzz · 2005-02-09

Much more detailed film about how the dollar works than the somewhat moronic "How the dollar works" made earlier. This film gives several scenarios of people putting the dollar to use. We also learn of what drives the dollar's worth up and down. Although it won't earn prizes for film, this is a great overview film.
