Aren't you wondering how much Michael Moor made last year and this year and why he is such a hypocrite and only wants to spread other peoples wealth...I will listen to him when he let's every one see his movie for free....the man made loads of money and has many real estate properties...which to me he deserves ...but at the same hand makes him the top 10 of hypocrites!
You can probably see all his previous movies for free on the Internet, if you know where to look.
What is Moore lying about? Why is whether or not Moore is being charitable make a difference? Moore is exposing the stealing, thievery, bribery and corruption on Wall Street, monolpolies and big corporations. You do know that that is not true "Capitalism"...right? Therin lies the problem...you think that Capitalism is synonymous with those things. It is not! Go read a bit of history and economics.
I live in a small rural town called Chicago Illinois, on the North side in a neighborhood called "uptown" with a high concentration of ethinic minorities and overall low income levels.
Don't generalize me, or attempt to discredit my views by my percieved ignorance.
Very very very few people in our society, even as a percentage of "poor" live in the squaler you speak.
Okay. Tell me the percentage.
Who knew that Chicago had such a "wealthy" population of "poor people."
I can PROMISE YOU that that is simply NOT the case in Miami. Again, as I say, I can show you at least one large entire "neighborhood" in Miami (and there are more!) where very few people even have cars......much less 2 cars.....or air conditioners (and Miami is HOT for many, many months out of the year)....nor can these people afford to educate their kids past PUBLIC SCHOOL years.
Btw, YOU made the post saying some pretty absurd things. I lived in Miami for many years, and through my work I had the opportunity to see what "poor neighborhoods" look like. If you believe what you posted, then you are basing your belief on too small of a "view."
Driving around in Overtown is like driving around in a war zone!

This is my point: those who are against Michael Moore are against him because he's absolutely RIGHT. They can't stand the fact that he is a righteous guy who stands up for the middle class.
The fact is that if Moore makes a poor film he does not get a big bank payday. He actually has to earn his money. But the corporate robber barrons can drive their company into the ground to the point it is bankrupt and the government has to bail it out and STILL get obscene pay and bonuses!

Uptown??? I thought they ran all the poor people out of there. They were doing a good job of it when I was working full time, taking care of a baby and attending class at Truman College on Wilson Ave. And yes I did graduate. And then went to Northwestern- and graduated from there too. But because we were not "yuppie enough" Uptown made it pretty clear they had no use for us.
Why doesn't he go after the White House and Congress? They make the laws to govern Wall Street....but you know those folks are his buddies.
