Film review: 'Capitalism' holds some interest
8 comments | Read story
THIS IS A GOOD THING.
Michael Moore represents my view of capitalism very well. Instead of feeling like he subjected me to some form of twisted propaganda, I feel refreshed that a filmmaker like him (he's one of the only ones) is making films AGAINST the capitalist system of economy. Capitalism sucks. It rewards greed and punishes honesty. It promotes the hording of wealth and a dog-eat-dog mentality that leaves millions homeless and diseased.
Michael Moore's films are always fascinating. Sure he uses editing and other filmmaking techniques to bolster his views, but what is wrong with that? Moore is a hero of mine because he speaks the inconvenient truths that America needs to hear.
The super wealthy can always depend on the middle class to support them.
They throw them a bone here and there to keep the masses in line.
I would rather live under socialism, the truth is that I already pay the taxes for it, I just never get all the benefits that full socialism would give me.
