"My America: A Government of Deception and corruption" is a movie I made for my high school American Studies class. I spent 3 weeks (actual time of 100-120 hours) on this movie.
It covers the two main topics of deception and corruption within our government. It covers 4 historical events: Mexican-American war, Spanish-American war, Gulf of Tonkin, and the invasion of Panama, and 4 contemporary issues: Quantanamo Bay, Social Security, domestic wiretapping, and the war of Iraq (very in depth, about half of the movie)
If you want to go straight to the contemporary issues (more recent and thus more interesting to most) start the video 6 minutes in.
On that note, as this was a 3 week project as opposed to a 1 year project (Loose Change), You might notice that the soundtrack is from Loose Change, this is an example of time restraints, because I had to spend my time on other tasks. Researching, editing, video gathering, narrating, and everything else was all done by me, I didn't have additional help.
I hope you enjoy the movie, and I encourage you to tell your friends about it.
Sorry about some of the text quality, I didn't have time to change things for the google video version.
