Politics: Michael Moore sticks his fat, grubby dagger into capitalism

  • Capitalism is an evil, and you cannot regulate evil. … You have to eliminate it and replace it with something that is good for all people and that something is democracy.
  • Michael Moore • In the ending monologue to his new movie, “Capitalism: A Love Story,” which is hitting the Venice film festival today. His reasoning? Capitalism – at least the form practiced on Wall Street – is damaging to our economy, and bankers and investors are gambling with our money. He has a point in the midst of the rhetoric, but considering that we have a president who regularly gets called a socialist, it’s probably going to be lost on the American public. • source
