While there are certainly many grounds to be concerned about the
country’s economic condition, the view presented in the deficit-alarmist
movie, IOUSA, is one-sided and misleading.
CEPR issued its analysis of IOUSA
(www.cepr.net/index.php/publications/reports/iousa-not-ok), featuring a
minute-by-minute viewer’s guide of inaccurate or misleading statements
in the film, to put many of the issues raised in the movie in a broader
context.
It is important that the public be well informed about economic issues
and not allow itself to be railroaded into ill-considered policy choices.
The movie is screening on campuses around the nation (and locations are
added almost daily at www.iousathemovie.com/events). If it's coming to
your campus, please help us provide a balanced and well-informed
economic debate:
Nov. 2: University of Arkansas
Nov. 3: Utah Valley University
Nov. 4: University of Massachusetts-Lowell
Nov. 6: University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
Nov. 12: Sacred Heart University in Connecticut, Princeton University,
and Ohio State University in Columbus
Nov. 16: University of Washington, and Bellevue Community College in WA
Nov. 18: Wellesley College, University of Maryland in Baltimore, and
Rice University
