Michael Moore's Capitalism: A Love Story. Have you seen this?!

[YellowRubberDuckie]

He pissed a lot of people off with this movie. I remember everyone flipping out when it came out. It is on Encore right now. This is terrifying shit. Apparently we are peasants. THEY take out life insurance policies on their Employees, profiting on our deaths. Then when we die, they call us Dead Peasants. These are called dead peasants policies. Seriously?
And Citibank was telling their biggest clients we no longer live in a democracy. But we can still vote, and we MUST vote. It terrifies them that we have that power.
What the fuck have we let this country get us into? Fucking Ronald Reagan is the one who put a stop to the rich people paying their fair share, and I hope he's burning in fucking hell...

1. I bought it

and donated it to the local library hoping others would watch it too--probably a pipe dream.

2. No I didn't

3. Yes. It's awesome. MMoore is the man - speaks truth to power

Probably one of the few warriors for the middle class

4. Oh, it is a very good movie...

it is streaming on Netflix if you have that. It is one that should be watched several times as is "Inside Job" by Charles Ferguson. If you want to know why our economy is such a freaking mess, those two movies will give you a good idea. Although, I am still waiting for any part of our "justice system" to charge any of the criminals involved.

"PLUNDER: THE CRIME OF OUR TIME" by Danny Schechter

After watching these three movies and just finishing Matt Taibbi's "Griftopia, I think I've finally got a handle on what happened to explain it to others.
