Evil defense contractors had it,
noble causes did not.

1:01:05
Politicians are bought and sold like
so much chattel. Our problems multiply.

1:01:10
Pollution, crime, drugs, poverty,
disease, hunger, despair.

1:01:13
We throw gobs of money at them.
1:01:16
The problems always get worse.
Why is that?

1:01:19
Money's most powerful ability is to allow
bad people to do bad things...

1:01:23
...at the expense of those
who don't have it.

1:01:26
I agree.
1:01:26
- Who did you say you were working for?
- That's just my day job.

1:01:31
While in prison, I learned everything
in this world, including money...

1:01:35
...operates not on reality...
- But the perception of reality.

Posit: People think a bank
might be financially shaky.

1:01:45
- Consequence:
- People start to withdraw their money.

1:01:48
- Result: Soon, it is financially shaky.
- Conclusion: You can make banks fail.

1:01:53

Maybe you've read about a few?

1:01:57
Think bigger.
1:01:58
- Stock market?
- Yes.

1:02:00
- Currency market? Commodities market?
- Yes.

1:02:02
Small countries?
1:02:07
I might even be able to crash
the whole damn system.

1:02:11
Destroy all records of ownership.
Think of it, Marty.

1:02:15
No more rich people, no more poor people,
everybody's the same.

1:02:19
Isn't that what we said we always wanted?
1:02:23
Cos, you haven't gone crazy
on me, have you?

1:02:25
Who else is going
to change the world, Marty?

1:02:29
Greenpeace?
1:02:36
You are crazy.
1:02:44
Tomorrow they'll retrieve
your fingerprints...

1:02:46
...from the gun that killed
a Russian consular officer.

1:02:49
The following day, those prints will be run
through an FBI computer...

1:02:53
...and they will come up with a name.
