This is, by far, the best material I've found on the subject.
There's about two hours of video here.

This is good though provoking introduction from Daniel Amerman:

But if you're really serious about understanding what's going on,
you'll want to take the full course over at Chris Materson's web site:

    This is still a one sided course in economics. It is very much written for US style capitalism as being th eonly economic system that is viable. It is written for *investors* and people looking to put money somewhere.

    A *real* crash course on economics will also contain the history of money, the history of banking, a discussion of Social Credit, a proper analysis of 'The Wealth of Nations', as well as a discussion of the concept of the Tera (Bernard Lietaer) and Silvio Gesell's natural order.

    A US hedge fund approach to economics is not fair and balanced.

    Unless you like repeating boom and bust cycles moving money from the many to the few.
