What the fuck is this tom foolery. I saw it advertised briefly on FOX news and for a second I was like how is this on FOX news if it is a critique of the financial system that lead into the 2008 financial collapse....

Any comrades watch or hear of this film? Seems harmless but obviously its not because its on FOX. Regulation bashing film? Dunno

It's based on the ridiculous argument that society is defined by systems of generations (who as a whole somehow "removed or ignored" financial regulation because they were "coddled"!): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Zero

It may have some useful facts or explanations, but its thesis is absurd.

At least partially based on "the generations" where there are four generations that constitute a lifetime and these generations share a common set of traits and motivations. It seems that it's partially based in astrology.

Tom foolery indeed. I think the fact that it debuted at a Tea Party convention speaks more about it than the Wikipedia summary. :D
