So I have a youtube account with about 1000 subscribers from back when I used to upload gaming videos. I don't play anymore so I deleted all the vids but the subscribers are still there. These people are mostly in their twenties.

I was going to just start uploading any videos that I like, but then I realized it might be better to post short (because of most people's attention span) videos that highlight some of the problems our country is facing. I want to stay away from videos that obviously favor a particular candidate or political party and focus on videos that will just wake people up to what is going on in the world.

For example, I used to keepvid.com to download and reupload this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN2IZ3m32bQ) about the national debt. It's short, interesting, and to the point.

Any suggestions?

This one is my favorite, it's as long as someone wants to go since it's many lessons but it's a good layout of the system in just the first few.

Thank you, all! Keep 'em coming. I especially like the ones like The Broken Window Fallacy and the Duck Tales one, anything flashy that gets people's attention (lol). I'm also going to post these on facebook from time to time.

These are the types of videos I'm looking for. Also the ones in the post above are really good. Short, entertaining and to-the-point.

I love the Renaissance 2.0 series posted by akforme, the Friedman ones and some of the others, but those aren't quite what I had in mind.
