"Capitalism: A Love Story" will explore the root causes of the global economic meltdown and take a comical look at the corporate and political shenanigans that culminated in what Moore has described as "the biggest robbery in the history of this country" the massive transfer of U.S. taxpayer money to private financial institutions.
On this, the 20-year anniversary of his masterpiece "Roger & Me," Moore returns to the issue that began his career: the disastrous impact that corporate dominance and out-of-control profit motives have on the lives of Americans and citizens of the world. But this time the culprit is much bigger than General Motors, and the crime scene far wider than Flint, Michigan. -YT

Kinda like the french revolution. Problem is it is cyclical...cause now YOUR the one with stuff...prepare to be revolutioned on!
Seriously though, trusting politicians not to be corrupt/ignorant to dole out, at this point, trillions of dollars has to be the largest lunacy of our time.
rougysays...It is cyclical, but who times the cycles?
The poor don't do it. The poor did nothing wrong regarding this.
Enron robbed California blind, and nothing was really done about it.
Arthur Anderson, Bear Sterns (short sold), Bernie Madoff who could not have stolen all of that money by himself.
We are not seeing an aberration of the system.
We are witnessing the essence of the system.
Truckchasesays...Hmmmm;
Seems that after all these years he's finally getting closer to the core of the issue.
zomgunicornssays...Speaking of money, I bet MIA is loving that her song is used so much, lol
calvadossays...Michael Moore is douchey and annoying to watch and listen to, but this kind of exposé needed making.

But do you actually think this won't be more of his worthless self indulgent trite?
calvadossays...^I'm sure that it will be heavy on the self-indulgence but he generally does make a couple good points, I'll give him that.
ravermansays...He makes good points... but harrassing execs on the street doesn't really achieve anything.
He's starting to come across as a 'punked' for social issues rather than an actual agent for change.
