It won't work. No system will unless people are honest.
Trading and monetary systems are not the corrupters, humans are. Any system can work as long as the people carrying it out do so willingly and honestly and regard interest of others above interest of self.
So, nice movie, lot of truth, but their system will also fail.
And just to back up what you're saying,
"ABSOLUTE POWER CORRUPTS ABSOLUTELY!"

On the bright side, I see the current move in EURUSD as a correctional and EW told me that the market was moving up. Considering the G7 meeting I counted on a gap up on opening today. So right before market close on friday I opened a long position for 100 pips.
The whole weekend I have been monitoring XE.com and the news to see if I was correct. Speaking of keeping a weekend exciting!
Lets face it, if I put the money on a horserace I only get 2 minutes of excitement.

Bluebottle... USDJPY Monthly Chart

You've got the large 5 wave decline labelled correctly, but the sideways correction that we have seen since 1995 has created a large triangle which are commonly found in 4th waves. The large wave 4 correction ended at 124.13 last year. We are now in a large degree wave 5 decline that will eventually take prices under the wave 3 low at 79.80

Also note that 5th waves commonly extend in Forex, so I am of the opinion that the US Dollar will be near worthless or completely devalued against the Japanese Yen in the not so distant future. The Japanese Yen is about strengthen substantially against major currencies.

Thanks a lot for the chart and totally agree with your count. I made mistake in triangle 4th waves.

as far as i understand, you watched the second one (talking about utopia)..
yes, it is a bit different, i guess the main idea was to answer the questions What can we do & How could it be..
but just in case you did not get the prestory:
