I Want Your Money

There is supposed to be a new movie hitting theaters this fall. The timing places it in advance of the Congressional mid-term elections in November. It's called I Want Your Money and it's by film maker Ray Griggs. That is if Griggs can come up with the cash to finish production.

This movie depicts the national debt crisis through a combination of documentary interviews and animation. In it an animated Ronald Reagan tries to teach Barack Obama about economics and budgeting. The animation, as well as the logo, were done by an artist from Mad Magazine. Among those appearing in the movie are Newt Gingrich, Mike Huckabee and John Stoessel.

One little problem: It is inconceivable that a conservative look at the last two years like I Want Your Money could ever be produced and then screened in any multiplex controlled by the left-leaning entertainment industry. Just remember the difficulty that conservative comic Ben Stein had getting Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed made. Conservatives who long for the days of Thirty Seconds over Tokyo and Medal of Honor: The Audie Murphy Story know the drill. No liberal bent, no investors. No investors, no screens. No screens, no movie.

Nevertheless, take a look at the trailer below. Share it with a friend. It's almost as good as a movie. And it's cheaper than ten bucks and a bucket of popcorn. If by some quirk this thing gets made and screened, so much the better.

Just thought you might like to know.
