I have created a short presentation that will help you explain money as debt to individuals or small groups up to about 10 people.

The purpose of this presentation is to introduce the fact that money is created as debt. A vast majority of people have no idea where electronic money comes from. The idea that banks create brand new electronic money out of thin air when they make a loan is not an easy concept to grasp. If the person you are talking to does not grasp this concept first, nothing else money reform wise will make sense to them.

The presentation makes use of simple visuals to reinforce the point that banks create money as debt. Make sure you have these to hand before you start your presentation.

Once this important point is established, you can cover social and economic problems caused by this crazy money system, depending who you are talking to.
