Found this amusing little video this morning, courtesy of a company called XPLANE. They're very much like Common Craft, who I love.
Clocking in at a little under 4 minutes, it explains the recent US financial meltdown simply, easily and with cute little stick figures and audio. I think it must have been created last fall sometime, just as the first giant government bailout was announced.
Enjoy. Or not, depending on your political leanings and general anger level.
