Has anyone seen this film? I just finished watching the film and its a very powerful movie that talks about the dangers of credit (credit cards in particular) and its impact on our country. Obviously these boards arent the target audience for the film, but if this is a national issue then it may hit closer to home to those who are more fiscally responsible.
Thoughts? comments?
Heres the description from Netflix:
"Investigating both the personal and the national debt owed by Americans, this thought-provoking documentary explores the staggering financial burden we live with every day and exposes how the contemporary financial industry is set up in ways that can harm unwitting customers. With both sobering facts and black humor, Maxed Out unveils the consequences of our debt addiction, including its contribution to the vanishing of the American middle class."
