MrsMac and I watched
Money for Nothing: Inside the Federal Reserve this yesterday afternoon - It was great!
In short it was at a level that even I could understand. The documentary explained the Fed and it's roll from 1913 till 2010. It was so good that even MrsMac put down her Sunday paper and came into the living room to watch. We than discussed it all through dinner.
Here is a trailer...
