@MrCornellian I have to agree. His films showcase the horrors of America and why a just society where we are all on this ship together and it's time we start acting like it.
Michael Moore is an extremist!! In normal time he shoul not be listen but in the world we live, we really need than kind of weapon again other republican extremist.
@rg0057 No he didn't . Nightline never had a Satellite Truck stolen from Michigan or any other place. Moore put that in the movie but it never happened. It was 100 percent made up.
@wengerswissmilitary If you have seen the film....you knew there was interview with a guy who were part of team which invented them....and he was not even able to explain this without words bet, casino, fraud. Why is that?
You should really do something with that, I want US to be civilized peaceful country, and not only because you sit on plenty of nukes.
what to say? The reason why people gave it bad reviews is because the movie focused too much on the visual effects, while neglecting the story and the acting. Anyways, if u wanna judge it go to MOVIEPRINCESS[DOTT]com
Capitalism as classically defined in economics refers to a free market system. In order for a market to be free, the government has to work as an impartial referee. What we have in our country is fascism, which was defined by Mussolini as a merger between corporations and government. Many people who support capitalism want a free market, not fascism. When Moore says he is opposed to capitalism people hear opposition to the free market, when in reality he is railing against fascism.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
capitalism is anti-christian? yet moore is a obama fan and everything obama stands for it the opposite of what the Bible says and what a true christian believes. what an idiot, he wants to throw his faith around but doesn't know anything about it.
"This is blasphemy, he wants communism" this what most idiot right wing nut jobs say. Even though they don't know what socialism or capitalism represent.
Hah! It's 'radical' to be morally outraged by criminals now is it? Criminals being rewarded for their criminality and malfeasance with tax payer money? They should be given jail sentences not rewarded with tax payer money. I don't think it's radical to be disgusted by crime. Split hairs if you want but I stand with any sentiments that demands accountability of anyone and everyone involved in this looting of historical precedence.
Miss Maria... The «whore of Babylon» gives Catholics a bad name. Pope ratzinger was a Nazi and has pardoned those who don't believe 6 million and more Jews were murdered. Moore: just pointing out the obvious by comparing Christ's compassion and generosity to the money grubbing phat cats using hard earned money invested poorly to make themselves even more money cuz theyre unhappy. Why cant Moore use religion to make his point?
In France in 1789, the people took over because of the wealth being in the hands of a 'few', in this case the arisocrats. The people were starving and then MORE money was demanded from them to keep the aristocrats in their disgustingly rich lifestyles. So, that was the end, push the people TOO far and eventually the game is up. Whats happening in USA today is just the same as 1789 in France. 'Liberty, Equality, Fraternity'.
this is all the more reasons we need free health care.... if you have not watched sicko in a while please do so; if you have never watched sicko, it is a must see....we as a people must demand free heath care and vote the politicians out who do not support it...isn't funny the politicians have it! KEEP IT UP MICHAEL!!!!
If your car it's not working, you repair it or change it for another one, you don´t say, "cars are useless, let's go back to horses! Capitalism, communism... those are just names! People make politics, people greed, people steal, not one or another system. Change any system to another one, and if you don't change people, nothing will change. Any system, if it's well tuned and balanced, works...
USA : manifest destiny. It is an un-functioning democracy based on a fascist-corporatist form of capitalism whereby the few are enriched at the expense of the many. The facts are on the ground. Undeniable, embarressing facts that a few American zealots try to proclaim as "democratic". Land of the free, home of the brave? How about "Land of greed, home of the thief?" A nation founded on law-abiding slavery, based on a decleration of independence wriiten by rich, white men for rich, white me.
Looks like I struck a nerve. Oh, and the name calling...my goodness! I say sober up before your spewing your bloodshot comments. One thing is certain, you have no idea what you are talking about.
Capitalism is what we have in the current epoch. Money is what's important, not your fellow man, not nature, not god, not eternal values, not science, not art, not human progress, but money. It looks like it has serious defects and is on the way out. Good riddance. Time for freedom, equality, love and individuality to emerge in the next epoch. So long capitalism. You've been good - but you're no longer good enough.
kansascitybomber, Moore is likely a pretty wealthy guy by now, but he earned his money by making the most successful documentaries ever, not by screwing over the public and ruining lives. Even most of the people who don't like him aren't stupid enough to think he's a fraud. Moron.
Hypocrite, you knock the very system that made you rich. Go to cuba and try that stunt. Name a system of government that does not run on greed! China? Russia?
"The world runs on induviduals pursuing their separate needs."
People who hate the U.S. always compare it to communist dictatorships such as China and Russia, rather than other free countries like Canada, the U.K. or Australia.
If we have few hero like Micheale Moore in US, we 'll have better life and never go to war for few money hunger who control the Oil and weapon Co. of this country....God bless Micheale Moore...:)>
i wish he would analyse the economic system more deeply. the "laws" of economics are supposed to be some sort of immutable, natural law... but they are infact very disconnected from reality. the mob on wall street are exploiting the economic system, but who can blame them? it's the economic system itself that is flawed, and creates massive inequality in the world. people are enslaved and made billionaires, all by a system that is no more real than a children's story we never question.
The purpose of this financial crisis is to take down the U.S. dollar as the stable datum of planetary finance and, in the midst of the resulting confusion, put in its place a Global Monetary Authority [GMA - run directly by international bankers freed of any government control] -a planetary financial control organization" - Bruce Wiseman
Bernanke, Geithner, Rubens, Summers, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan & the Federal Reserve Bank know exactly what they are doing by collapsing the US Dollar:
American Catholics have been split for a long time, but it's worth remembering that when Michael Moore was growing up (in the 60s and 70s), it was BEFORE Jesus and Christianity had been "hijacked' and dumbed down by right wing fundamentalists and the modern conservative movement. It's good to see people waking up again - finally.
How is it that Moore is so confused that he is unable to grasp the simple fact that without capitalism he would be unable to make and distribute his films to millions of people?
Thats like saying a beer you dont like, itsnt a beer, just because you just dont like it. Fascism is capitalism in a darker form. Moore has made it clear he is referring to capitalism in its current form. Thats the only form that matters here and now.
healthhavencom, who said Moore was confused? Fox News? And why is it that when Moore comes outwith a movie you right wing tarts attack it w/o even seeing it? So you think you know it all aye? All you sheep are saying the same thing about Moore making money. Do U sheep ever think for yourselves? EVER? YOU PEOPLE NEVER ADDRESS THE ISSUE AT HAND BECAUSE YOU ARE CLUELESS instead you go and attack Moore. You sheep warp yourselves in the flag and yet are as Un-American as Bin Laden.
Capitalism is The Most Powerful Force Known to Mankind.
We do NOT have capitalism in America. We have fascism.
These facts have nothing to do with "right-wing" or "left-wing" rhetoric which only serves to keep the simple minded (UTBESUX) distracted just long enough for the crooks to get away with their ill gotten gains.
How about Micheal Moore "spread his money around", its "evil" to have that much money. If he doesnt like it he can go to the socialist paradise of North Korea...
RE;PresidentTeleprompte . Hey people with a brain, do you see a pattern here with peeps like this clueless wonder? They ALL SPEAK THE SAME SPEAK ABOUT MOORE'S MONEY! Why? Because they get that from Rush "OXYCONTIN" Limbaugh & Fox News & all the other Un-American right wing frauds. If you study anything on "CULTS" you will see that these sheep are more like a cult than a movement, "us vs them", "good & evil", lie, distort, attack, brainwash, think the same, talk the same. They are an idiotic cult
Nothing like someone criticizing a system that made them rich. Even Larry King who never asks the hard questions leaves him at a loss when he places Moore in the 1% of rich people. Why don't you practice what you preach and give a large amount of your wealth away, or better yet, proceeds from this movie, but you won't.
This guy doesn't represent the small guy, because he's not one of us. In fact, this movie is like the Devil crusading against sin. He's part of the problem.
No, you got it wrong. Michael Moore does not deny he is doing well for himself, but he's doing well for himself only because he has worked hard to get where he is. He is not against capitalism, only for what this current form of capitalism has become. You haven't been listening; you've been preoccupied by the rhetoric of Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly who busy themselves turning people like you into neo nazi conservative zombies who listen to their nonsense.
What capitalism has become??? Gimme a break, he said he wants democracy in capitalism. WELL, I vote Michael Moore should give back all the money except what he needs to live a reasonable life.
We can invest the funds in education to teach people like you how to think critically and spot hypocrisy and contradictions without assuming a right-wing conspiracy.
I know so many people who struggle with a game they think they're just not good enough at playing. But what they don't realize is that it's not that they don't work hard enough, it's not that they've broken the rules. It's that the rules are written to make sure they cannot prosper, so that the best they can ever do is have the least they need while being in the most debt possible to have as little as possible. So they still believe in the game, in spite of all this. That may be changing.
Michael, You are truly a blessing for this nation by what you do. Please NEVER EVER Stop, because we will NEVER stop believing in you and being 100% behind you. You are OUR voice, You are one damn proud american and so am I and I wish, our system will be changed from being selfish to a caring nation that believes in being in one boat !!! Thank You!!!
