Money as Debt 3: Evolution Beyond Money
Paul Grignon closes out his Money as Debt trilogy by turning from critique to blueprint, laying out what a replacement for conventional currency might actually look like. His starting complaint is that money gets treated as a single uniform commodity when it functions as several different things at once, a confusion he argues has fed real economic and political injustice. From there the film sketches a system built on real assets like land rather than debt, run through digital tools designed to be self-generating and self-balancing rather than dependent on banks issuing interest-bearing loans. Complementary currencies get worked through as a present-day example of the alternative already in limited use. There is no host-led investigation or interview footage here in the material available; this is Grignon's own argument, presented as the final piece of a series that spent its first two films diagnosing debt-based money before this one proposes what could replace it.
