  • @1ohtaf1 If he was he wouldn't be wrong. Get your head out of your ass faggot.

  • I look forward to when Michael Moore has his heart attack.

  • @westonjakes That's sad to read. Michael Moore is one of very few voices of justice and integrity in this corrupted country :/

  • @HanSomKan1 He isnt any better, his videos are bias and he is a hypocrite. I dont surport the people that he puts the spotlight on, they are bad, but his way of fixing it is the same way that the problems were created in the first place.

  • thank you Union workers .. now only if we can get the middle class back

  • I LOVE MICHAEL MOORE HE DESERVES TO BE SUPER RICH AND FAMOUS HE IS THE SHIT, HE FIGHTS FOR WHO DONT HAVE A LOT, AND BY DOING THAT GOD REWARDED HIM

  • It you're watching this Michael. Please look into the H.A.A.R.P project. These secret societies that reveal themselves on the back of the U.S one dollar bill with the symbol of the pyramid with the all seeing eye a top, that says in God we trust (Satan) have us worshiping them by putting up Christmas trees with the star a top every year unwittingly. They are remotely hypnotizing us with E.L.F waves.That's why we are all so passive and unable to critically analyze what they are doing. peace out

  • ddddd

  • ffffff

  • Without capitalism where would those buildings that surround Mike be today.

  • Latest scheme to manipulate society . Global warning . Before that . Terrorism before that Feminism Before that communism. before that

  • I would like to nominate Michael Moore for President!

  • GOP PLAN FOR AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS IS DUMPSTER DIVING !

  • I am sick of this character thinking he knows all.

  • Michael Moore should make his next movie about internet piravy :P

  • if at least 8 out of 10 thinks like this guy

    we would not be duped by the ruling class who controls everything in this society

    you only think we have freedom but in reality we are under modern day economic slavery

  • i give a f... 'bout patriotism but he is human-hearted and in the US he's, unfortunately, one of too few people who's got the view behind media and prejustificated views! Thanks for beeing a good friend!

  • from scotland,michaelmoore, RESPECT,

  • Its the Federal Reserve people. Wake up! The free market doesn't work when you conglomerate and eliminate the 6 pillars of economic growth. Every time they manipulate the market inflate it and crash it, they buy everything for pennies on the dollar. Are you all really that stupid? The Federal Reserve is not the government by the way, it is banking at its worst actually. You have the banks to thank for the collapse. The Bush and Republican congress fed them billions. What did you get?

  • This is not a free market. It is a monopoly and conglomeration- total domination. Trickle down economics are devastating, as has been repeatedly explained by the top economists. More people file bankruptcy due to medical bill debt than any other reason. We've been economically crushed. Republicans cause my favorite small businesses to go out of business, while erecting crap I don't want like Walmart. Democrats and anyone with half a brain must act fast. Stop the bleeding at the top.

  • BTW, did any of this ever make it on CNN?

  • Unfortunately its all true. Xyloid... I'm guessing your a business owner or richer then most. There are good things about capitalism, but overall it's failing on a finacial standpoint. Check out the videos about the US dollar loosing its' value! If capitalism is so good...... Why is the economy crashing? The euro is worth more then the dollar and other countries are getting away from the dollar and going with the euro. Hey..Universal health care is a socialist idea! how does that make you feel?

  • @xyloid02 No he didnt turn on capitalism. I do agree he's having a rough time explaining it. this is what i feel Michael needs to say. " Capitalism isnt "evil " its the corruption thats all twisted in it.. Money is not the root of all evil.. Its the "LOVE"of money that is evil. A bank charging $500 because someone over drafted one penny is CORRUPTION. GREED. IMMORAL"

  • I love Michael Moore.. Thank God he exists, and shows us the truth. We American are so brain washed into believing we are the best in practically everything.. though we might have it better than other countries, we are not all that well.

  • @ruviecita You got to be joking......

  • Justice since from the beginning of time has only come from the end of a gun.There has never been or will never be another way.Not today,not tomorrow,NEVER.

  • Everyone talks about the Weather but no one does anything about it,

  • Just because Michael Moore isn't a Harvard Graduate ,like every other bullshitter in this government, doesnt mean you have to hate him. He is just using his right of freedom of speech to show his perspective of the world to the brain washed people of the US. Who brain washed us? The media. Please dont write stupid hate replies acting like a big shot.

  • yeah youre right. he IS a smart ass.

    Whats wrong with that> He is not trying to outsmart other people, he is enlightening you dumbass !

  • one genius named "michael" gone, another genius named "michael" remaining :)

  • the ceo of wmg should take a look at this video i love the part about copyright.

  • This man is a genius

  • AMAZING and ELOQUENT interview Michael! Funny I never saw it on CNN! I work hard and pay taxes but cannot afford health care. Legislators, USE MY TAXES RESPONSIBLY to give me a public health care option, just like you use them for public highways, libraries, schools, and police services. Lower incomes should not equal lesser access to infrastructure, information, education, protection, OR health care.

  • Comment removed

  • I could not hardly hear him with all the street noise...sombody did not put the mic in the right sopt! I want to hear his words! ..moving on... though it sounds good..

  • Let me see if I understand this right. He thinks that banks hire lobbyist so that congress will write laws that force them to make a certain percentage of loans to minorities under penalty of law, placing the banks capital at risk unnecessarily. Sounds to me like the lobbyist the banks hired did a real shitty job and the ACORN lobbying faction had the influence on congress.

  • Michael Moore is a smart man, and many people don't like his point of view with different topics because they are lazy, and do not want to deal with change. When a person is taken out of their normal comfort zone with whatever it is they're used to doing, they become defensive and will try to oppose whatever it is that is being put into place or suggested, and will want to keep what it is that they're used to.

  • well said I agree !

  • Wow! This is right on! Thanks for posting this!

  • MORONS dont see what he's trying to do. He is warning us and exposing the rich that are getting richer at a great expense.

  • The best thing you could ever do is join a union.

  • hes not dead! haha

  • "Congress are the paid servants of Wall Street". Yeah. Go Michael. Tell it like it is.

  • I saw his movie tonight - it's fantastic. A treasure. He takes the Democrats down just as hard, so no matter who you are, give it a shot.

  • It's capitalism and his name is Michael Moore. get it correct!

  • he doesnt make the movies for a profit

  • really and you believe that huh wonder why he got that big mansion estate in michigan and where the profits go?

  • If he had just made the movie for profits he wouldnt be doing all these rallies and protest! he did it to send a message and to help everyone who needs help!

  • has to make it look good somehow, boy he has a nice mansion in michigan i hear, probaly paid for by pan handling huh

  • he has made good money, yes., but funnels his money into other meaningful projects and charity...but you are missing the point. He doesn't argue against making money, per se. He agues against unchecked capitalism running over democracy. Right now, huge businesses are hijacking our political system. You and I are being seriously dicked over by enormous companies all the time. They OWN our politicians. They will get there way unless we fight them. We need to take back our country!

  • you tell me when and where and ill be there . someone needs to set up a revolution

  • listen again from 4:15

  • Michael Moore, we don't need Socialism and we don't need Capitalism. Both systems are controlled by a greedy parasitic ruling class that owns the Monatery system and keeps society enslaved and under their thumb. What we need to do is return to our Constitution and create a Real Republic now! Youtube: LPACTV: Audio Preview, The LaRouche Plan

  • fuck capitalism, fuck those greedy bastards

  • Comment removed

  • "The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists, written in 1914.

  • Moore is a good, smart and respected human being, he is a real patroit, that is if Americans who i think with all due respect are mostly ignorant understand that he really stands for them.He should be the UN secretary of states and not those figure heads appointed by rich criminals.

  • Have you read,"Conspiracy of the Rich" by Robert Kiyosaki, or "END THE FED" by Ron Paul? They are some of the best books that I have ever read.

  • I don't get how MM says he's not for copyright laws and then states how piracy hurt his films release and the spread of it's message.

  • So he's not allowed to mention that fact?

    He was supposed to say "piracy does not hurt my films"? Are you fucking serious?

  • Don't you see the inherent contradiction? If getting his message out to as many people as possible is important then copyright, which protects the intellectual property of his message, is integral to the success of his message. So he should support the thing that protects his message.

  • Man your criticism is very old. Can't you right wingers come up with something original such as discrediting what is in his movie? Believe it or not there are private companies and executives in mixed economies (socialism) that make alot of money. His message mostly is about a system where 1% of the population has more wealth than 95%, that's a sickening statistic. Hope right wingers aren't going to go so far as to say that all 95% of the population's lazy and should get off their ass.

  • Hey Jackoff, this might surprise you, but, I'm not a right winger. I voted for Kucinich in the last election. I take no issue with his larger point because I agree with it. Don't be so close minded and dogmatic. Not every criticism is an attack. It might actually be a valid point.

  • You sir are a retard, your point is that he should support the "thing" that protects his message. LOL The thing can be interpreted as capitalism. You frigged up tard, my point is valid. You don't have to be poor or be protected by copyright and not support the fundamentals of capitalism. Capitalism in a free world market where they pay pennies to workers in other countries is not fair to anyone in the US.

  • Copyright protects his message. Capitalism is how he gets a return from his efforts. Not the same thing. Both stem from enclosure, but a poor person can copyright something and have his intellectual property be protected (which offers the opportunity to profit from his idea) whereas in capitalism the poor have little to no protection. In no earlier post did I comment on capitalism. So you jump to a conclusion and down my throat making you the fool. Not everyone is talking about what you are.

  • Look it up, copyrighting started under a monarchy in Britain in 1662, choke on that smart ass.

  • So? Habeas Corpus started under a monarchy. If I'm a poor comic book artist and I make a popular character copyright is the only thing that ensures Disney doesn't steal my character and profit off of my idea and instead I profit off my work. The extreme of copyright like a corporation copyrighting your DNA is evil. The opposite of no ownership is equally useless. There is a middle way of providing protection. Open you mind instead of looking to win an argument only you are having.

  • its like he said you can't own 111010111000011101101110100011­000001011000010101000010111101­11011111011101110' and zeros. i just got my IP address blocked today cause i was sharing too much on P2P programs. come on kids pirate like hell.

  • no, you are

  • If I only think there're shitheads like those at Moorewatch,... man!

  • George Carlin said it best in an a interview right before his death "all great empires eventually fall, and this country is DONE!"

  • 2) The good new is "their Bankrupt"! This is our opportunity to destroy this Privet Banking Empire &? free the world from financial slavery. That's what LaRouche wants to do & we should support this action & take their power away under Bankruptcy. Their broke! Their looting us through bailouts! Their a criminal organization! Bankruptcy will expose their crimes & sack them for good. We can also get our bailout $ back. YouTube: LAROUCHE WEBCAST EXCERPT: CONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE FED

  • 1) It all traces back to a Privet Banking Empire that owens & runs most of the world threw their Free Trade/Market Corporate system better know as Globalization. This system has been used to build Empires throughout Europe for years. It is not the American system. "We don't like Empires & ruling classes. We are a Republic! The Federal Reserve is part of this criminal financial Empire & is illegal under our Federal Constitution. The FED is a enemy to the United States.

  • Michael Moore has worked hard for his piece of the pie.

    Roger and Me - he was right about GM

    F911 - he was right about Iraq and Bush fiction

    Sicko - he was right about health care

    Pretty good batting average

  • CNN is almost the same as Fox news

  • Michael Moore is one of the top 1%. Where were the cameras when he was negotiating his distribution agreements for his latest movie? The guy is loaded and like Obama he's become a multi-millionaire telling you that you can't make it.

  • Michael has constantly said that he is a millionaire thanks to his movies...Micheal profits from entertaining & giving knowledge to people in controversial issues.

    The other 1% has made money due to some under the table deals & lobbying for legislation that favors them in their dirty deals.

    So theirs is no comparison to Michael & the other pieces of shit out there with your money.

  • i wish more people understood this.also, just because he has money he cant care about other people?

  • Exactly!

  • What camera is that... Canon...?

  • wrong ... go to the micheal moore, howard stern interview, youtube, 46mins 50sec. long. not even a millionare. profits go back into his movies, to make more movies

  • I used to hate Michael Moore.. but then Aetna terminated me.. I watched "Sicko" and I'm PISSED.. just like Michael Moore.. I love this guy and what he stands for. We all think that if we work hard.. invest well.. get a few breaks.. we too can be the next George Soros.. No chance.. The tables been stacked.. Congress has been bought and paid for.. We have become the working zombies for that top 1%.. Thank You Elected Officials... NOT... Thank You.. Michael Moore

  • WARNING: People who tell others they are drinking "kool-aid" are usually morons who have no real argument, ironically not realizing they themselves have been duped by our powerful corporatocracy.

  • right wing rednecks i love country music but you guys R being misled in a big way. fuck conservitive, fuck democrats, all bull.

    lets think for a minute. you are being used by a few of those that are making a shit load of money off of taking advantage of

    your innocence. the internet is free, look around. take it from me, im a redneck hill billy to the core.

  • Moore loves black people... yayyy save us..somebody get his ass an angry whopper!!!

  • yes

  • times are changing

  • this is kinda like the matrix isn't it? the middle class is finally waking up and thanks to guys like MM.Times are changing and anyone trying to fight the wake up is gonna have a really hard time adjusting.Evolution is happening on every playing field of reality.Grab some popcorn and watch and see.

  • excellent analogy. I have thought the same.

    More people need to follow the white rabbit, take the red pill.

    Michael Moore? Michael Morpheus?

  • Michael Moore speaks for me!!!!!

    More people should stand up for our country like he has done for all of us!!!

  • If Michael Moore speaks for you than you are a douchebag.. Michael Moore doesn't give 2 shits about you. He is worth over 50 million dollars.. Anybody with that much money can pretend that there for the less fortuanate and trying to help the poor. Bullshit stop being so nieve he could careless.

  • Warning!

    rd's comment smells like right-wing propaganda.

  • Warning Tomofnorthcal lives in the land of the Oz and sips Kool-Aid for lunch

  • The far right constantly argues that ruthless corporatism and greed somehow magically always produces good things for everybody, while efforts intended to benefit everyone are inherently evil and deserve vilification. They provide no proof, just faith and attacks if you disagree.

    Corporations figured out a long time ago that they could make more money manipulating people (including politicians) than by "playing by the rules". They avoid taxes, enforcement and regulation. They are a menace.

  • If Michael Moore really doesn't care about getting money, why does he care if his movie was pirated? Those people who downloaded it obviously watched it and they were educated by its content which supposedly was his only objective. According to him, making money off of a capitalistic system isn't his main concern... or is it?

  • Because the more profits he's movies make the more movies he can make .Clearly if he's movie are pirated and makes a big lose there be no more movies .

  • michael...get..it..in...lol

  • What are those young people, on the left, in the 1st seconds of this video doing? Looking for Wall Street's response to Michael's new film?

  • thank god for michael moore. he's the only one out there telling the truth.

  • "A system based on ethics and morality".  Sorry, Moore. Ethics and morality aren't profitable. That's anti-capiitalist. Sounds like you're a Commie to me.

    Good luck making a profit with ethics & morality, when other corporations don't worry about that. You'll go under that much quicker, to the amusement of the competition.

    Want to make this a better nation? Be out for yourselves all the time, crush the unions, and get rid of worker's' rights. The nation's wealth will skyrocket.

  • Sorry; just wanted to know what it felt like to be a conservative pin-head for a moment. Actually, Moore is right; there would be no middle-class without unions. How do I know? My grandfather was beaten to death by corporate goons when he marched for unionization of his coal mine. The bought-off police never investigated. The union eventually got in after a lot of blood, and my dad's town went from being dirt-poor to almost liveable.

    But that's Commie Unionism for ya...

  • Sounds like today ...and i don't see new wealth......so Ethics and moraility cant make a profit ? why ?

    See that the system suits very few from a profit point of view ,why is it of the benefit of society .

  • More people are waking up thanks to you, keep up the good work!

  • The Labor Unions have been torn apart by our Corporate controled federal government for the last 40 years. They might be corrupt, but not nearly as much as our elected congress which is totally legal to be bribed. Labor bosses get put in jail for bribery; why is it legal when congressmen take money from lobbist? Why are they above the law? If anything, they should be punished more because they are in the pubic "trust". Labor union will coming back with a vengence and bring Democracy along.

  • I love his views on copyright and the hypocrisy of the copyright movement of the United States.

    They're so true.

  • this socialist prick got more people on his sid ethen yours lol blow me...

  • Okay Righties...are you even listening to what Michael Moore is saying? Jesus Christ...the American right is a whole new kind of stupid.

  • In the end He will say to those one percent, "Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me. I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me."

    Mathew 25

  • how the fuck is he a stalinist?

  • "Liberalism is the transformation of mankind into cattle." Nietzsche

  • The Kenya birth certificates, you morons produced, look as real as a high school kid's fake beer ID.

  • OBAMANATION. Gotta love that Kenyan, left wing communism.

  • Ah...where should I start. 1) He's not Kenyan. Anyone that thinks this is an idiot.

    2) He is left wing you are correct there

    3) How is he Communist if he is trying to help the American people and is not doing anything Communist.

    Gotta love that American, right wing bullshit.

  • What's to love? It's so common in the USA. Stick you head out in america and see a 1000 pinheads. They're called Republicans. People so stupid that they dig their own hole to bury themselves in.

  • WTF I HATE U.... His last movie sicko was free!

  • he does... idiot

  • Yeah right idealistic, just like the founders of our country, wanting everyone to be equal, how naive huh......Mike did a GREAT JOB! I was suprised to see that Hugo (OO-GO) Chavez did a pretty good job too with Larry King, i was affraid he would make a Burro of himself.

  • All around the world People are looking at the Fatima message. Eventually Michael Moore will read it. Who knows what will happen after that?

  • 5 STAR.

    How do we get him in office?

  • Comment removed

  • Mike's a good guy. He looks out for Americans and the corruption that Politicians participate in.

    But he has one thing wrong.

    Capitalism is not the enemy here. What he's speaking about is Corporatism. Where Corporations take advantage of the people and the free mark bestowed upon them. And it's quite unfortunate.

    Capitalism has, and always will be defined as a Free Market for everyone to EQUALLY get ahead. Not Corporations abusing people.

  • Excellent Interview! 5 Stars!

    Interesting he calls out ABC on the way his movie "SiCKO" was handled.

  • *pssst* Michael...hey, Michael

    When are YOU going to start paying your employee's health care? Huh? When? How about their Social Security? Oh... they are "independant contractors"... I see. Just wondered...

  • Moore has confused Capitalism with Fascism.

    The former leads to peace and prosperity.

    The latter to poverty and war.

  • healthhavencom... you should know.. that they both share characteristics when they touch each other in their ends... just like a circle...

  • Capitalism is millions of people working together, inventing new things, and trading with one another; all based on voluntarily agreement.

    Fascism is a small group of powerful people dictating to the masses what they must do and what they may not do; all in an effort to protect their own narrow interests.

    One system is great. The other is a complete disaster. They share exactly nothing.

  • Capitalism requires the organized deposession of the working masses . It has horrible injustices, it equates price with value and it is translated by a inane cultural industry.

    Still, its better than communism or fascism, just dont be so optimistic about it.

  • Capitalism is millions of people working together, inventing new things, and trading with one another; all based on voluntarily agreement.

    It has nothing to do with optimism. Just reality.

  • lol, read history

  • thank your boss next time for delivering you edifying freedom.

  • by the way, with the company of intelligent people you would sound like clown

    PS: not english, spelling sucks

  • I suggest Google Chrome with a built in spell check.

  • "Not english" - got it thank you

    Now, what planet are you from?

  • now go read donald trump

  • I would say your definition is idealistic at best. It describes what capitalism SHOULD be, not what it is in America in 2009.

  • Like most of us Americans I don't think you have a very clear view of our version of capitalism, there is more than one you know. I can't believe how uneducated we are! Capitalism isn't the only system that operates in innovation, trading and voluntary agreement......Hello!? You need to see how voluntary it is to be third world and have people paying way too much for water & it used to be public and non profit. When you make a 1.00 to .50 cents a day paying for water is LIFE THREATENING!

  • Screw Shareholder Values, that alone is WHY the world is upside down, PROFITMAKING

    *Open Source 4 Life*

  • great job calling out ABC -

    keep at it!

  • God Bless Michael Moore!!!!

    He is absolutely right: UNIONS created the Middle-class, and perpetuated it...oh yeah, who created Unions???

    Answer: Eugene V. Debs (American Socialist).

  • We will never have enough food, water, energy or health care until we redesign our world to look at ALL people's needs over a FEW people's profits.

    The government is NOT the answer either. All governments are bought and paid for by the international bankers and corporations.

    We need to look at the ROOT CAUSE of all these problems and that is the monetary system. Without money the only question is do we have the resources and technology to create an abundance of life's necessities, YES WE DO!

  • we need to act on mm's films not just watch them. where is sicko when we need it? where was farenheit 911 when bush got re-selected? michael moore is usually ahead of the curve... we need to catch up, act... use his films to underscore what's really going on... you rock, micheal! ~lt xoxooxox

  • The wondres of the patriot act.... Michael Moore is a patriot who acts! Lets start a revolution and take back our country America! "We" is the first word in our founding document, which means that this government is for the common man... and not the wealthy multinational corporations! "We" must take back this country from corporate greed and create a new system that benefits us all and not the oligarchy! AMERICA... LETS RISE UP AND STAND FOR THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN THEIRE LIVES SO THAT WE CAN LIVE!

  • There is no morality in Capitalism. There is only profit. Profit is more important than anything. It's the companys mission to gain as much profit as possible regardless of social or environmental consequences.

    How can ANY American be surprised that each and EVERY institution in existence is corrupt? The American empire has been built upon the outdated, socially paralyzing and limiting nature of sort-term, personal profit. Every man for himself!

  • no, CRONY CAPITALISM is bad. meritocracy and capitalism are the ultimate ways to prosperity. as it is now....its basically corrupt. its not the system its the people...madoffs and many others.

  • That is like saying Communism isn't bad its Marxism thats bad.

  • I've been saying we need to base our economy on a small business model instead of a capitalist corporate model since last year long before I heard of this movie. I think it's a tidal wave of public reaction that will crash soon upon the front doors of the dollar zombies.

  • I love Michael Moore.

  • Mackenzie Phillips

  • The cnn journalist is so hot, jesus i'd love to fuck a milf like her.. if i only had the chance to live int he us for little while..

  • lol you should have been strangled at birth

  • You should really see his other movies especially SICKO!

  • BlazingRage, Maybe if you watched Michael Moores movies you wouldn't be so fucking stupid!!!!

  • Blazing Rage you are an illiterate, ignorant raging baboon..best change your name to fit your words

  • Keep fighting that good fight, Michael, you are the epitome of what a patriot is. You should make a movie about the whole piracy thing, that would be cool to see. Put them bastards in their place!

  • Keep up the great work Mike. I remember when people were attacking you for years and creating lies against you. Hope you enjoy the fruit of your labor. God bless and wish you the best.

  • Ariana Huffington put it so well: "In capitalism... you need a moral foundation in order for free markets to work. And when a company fails, it fails. It doesn't get bailed out using trillions of dollars of taxpayer money. What we have right now is "Corporatism". It's welfare for the rich. It's the government picking winners and losers". Since we obviously have no moral foundation in this country, we MUST HAVE socialism as a social safeguard.

  • Yes, morals & values.....i thought the tea baggers were for that type of thing? The Huffington Post ROCKS!

  • Capitalism as we know it DOES NOT WORK! The rich aren't against socialism, they're against socialism for the poor. I grew up near Michael Moore in Michigan, I saw what damage the automotive companies could do. For decades they DEMANDED loyalty from the workers, but gave NO LOYALTY back. Michael should be president. The USA is the only country where it's citizens vote against their own best interests.
