The diagram (video) could still do with some clearing up of points, like government I.O.U's, but it better than Diagrams & Dollars.

Introduction and overview of the reality of modern fiat money: Why the millennial generation CAN afford to build a better world. An updated and expanded version of the best-selling "Diagrams & Dollars."

As I pondered Professor Kalecki’s analysis, I was also trying to decide whether to go public with an admittedly “amateurish” video I’d put together to promote the book “The Millennials’ Money.” I was having doubts (having produced it with a miniscule budget) whether the quality of the video is good enough to be useful. Also, I was beginning to have doubts whether these ideas actually connect with, or fit into, any kind of potentially achievable future reality. Kalecki’s lecture erased any doubts about the latter―but it also makes it clear that the path to getting there is going to be overwhelmingly obstructed by the present dominance of the corporate economy over our collective governance.
In the end, I decided to go ahead and put the video out there, hoping that, in spite of its production shortcomings, it might become useful as a quick MMT introduction that is accessible enough to actually be absorbed by a lot of otherwise busy, distracted, or only peripherally engaged people. Here it is:

The music was better in the first Diagrams and Dollars video, though.
Concerning federal income tax, does the IRS not add the revenue to the Treasury's TGA account? If not, can you please provide a source for the information?
It is easier to say that the IRS shreds all the revenue than it is to get the public to believe it.
