Not very easily. Concise, easy to understand and correct explanations of how modern money (arguably since 1971) works are not easy to come by, and also the system just is a bit weird and counter intuitive. (Concise, easy to understand, but wrong explanations are, of course, all over the place. Almost everybody thinks they know how money works. Almost nobody actually does.)
One source that explains some of it would be "Debt: The first 5000 years" by David Graeber, but a) it's a fairly lengthy book with quite a lot of historical background and b) it has a fairly strong politicial spin to it.
