Fiat Money?

A friend told me about this video so I'm posting it here. I haven't watched it yet but it looks interesting, controversial, and it is strangely (for a video about finances) the most popular video on Google Video.

FYI - I'm not a "gold bug" by any means and I'm not necessarily advocating every point of view postulated in this video but I think it is wise, from time to time, to raise questions about the status quo and think in a historical and critical perspective about our current situation.
