Anarchy.

fuck the goverment.

I resent them.

Why listen to Moore or obama or fox news or CNN. Does America think for itself anymore or we a nation of brainless zombies is that what we have become??? Oh my god don't listen to these people because at the end of the day it is your opinion not theirs that matters. A friend of mine once said there is no truth in the news and no news in the truth. Think about it

I agree with your review, for the most part. You speculate on a few things as well.

[Pyrolonn]

I had pretty much the same take on it you did. One thing I think Moore gets is that when the U.S. had no overseas competition the corporations could be much more generous. Like you I didn't like the priest interviews certainly the opinion of some Catholic priests isn't in the constitution quite the opposite. Also wondered the back story on the foreclosed people and agree with you it was probably a refinance for mad money. One thing Moore got right the govt shouldn't allow financial trickery.

This guy says that you are an adult and you should just buck up and take responsibility. It is interesting that in this country the predatory lending practices have gotten so out of hand that even contract attorneys can't figure out some mortgage contracts. People need to stop watching Michael Moore movies and start reading Aristotle, Aquinas, and Ezra Pound.

I've been a fairly enthusiastic Michael Moore fan throughout the years, and must agree with you that 'Capitalism' is his weakest movie. Your blaming Ignorant Poor People (and "their greed") in the second half of the review was awfully cruel, unbalanced, and it seems you have a bizarre personal agenda there. It would have been more interesting to critique the movie in a more dispassionate, factually accurate way.

All of Moore's films have cheap shots & leaps of logic. This one had the most.

Michael Moore was summoned by the ruling class because he is their "controlled opposition." They do this so the ignorant sheep can all follow MM, and not someone who REALLY speaks the truth and is a threat to their "system."  Farhrenheit 9/11 - good movie, yet ZERO mention of WTC 7, how 3 buildings collapsed by only 2 planes, all at a free fall (controlled demolition) speed. ZERO mention of the tiny impact hole, 1/3 the size of an aircraft fuselage at the Pentagon with minimal debris etc.

I don't understand how you can point out corruption in the Federal Reserve and then feel no sympathy for those who lost their homes to the banks. The Federal Reserve orchestrated the sub prime mortgage crisis which led to many people losing their homes. Combine that with other economic factors such as unemployment and you have hell on your hands. Ignorance /= financial instability.

@xadam2dudex he knows everything. if u talk about economics without mentioning hte federal reserve u have NO credibility.

Moores agent is Ari Emanuel, Rahm Emanuel's younger brother...
