You control the debt, you control everything

This movie (The International) is from 2009, but quite topical today.

Two comments to this Youtube video:

“This whole Corona fear mongering has exactly the same end result. All the worlds governments went on a wild lending spree in the name of corona crisis management. Every new wave of infections they sell us is just a new excuse to lend more money. When all is said and done the world population would still be growing and everyone would be deeper in debt....”

“Covid lockdowns were used as a smoke screen for the debt bubbles that were going to burst. When governments debt spirals out of control because of this, governments will prostrate themselves to the bankers to get loans. The banks will impose severe austerity while scooping up public properties on the cheap. They'll scoop up private property too with so many people out of work, unable to pay their mortgages, or property tax”

UPDATE:

I have just watched this movie for the first time and it's FANTASTIC! It's one of the best thrillers I have ever seen! You have to be very careful while watching it because the plot is quite complex, but overall it's very logical.

There are many things I LOVED in this movie, but I will point out only three:
1. The “banking scene” is incredibly eye-opening.
2. The mini-plot about a sniper is awesome, but avoid spoilers!
3. The shooting inside an art gallery is very non-Hollywood, mostly because you can almost feel “the fear of bullets”.
