Michael Moore & Capitalism

"Documentary" filmmaker Michael Moore has a new movie coming out: "Capitalism: A Love Story". I can only guess that it's 90 minutes of MM complaining about how terrible capitalism is, and I won't be wasting my $10 to go see it.

He's free to say whatever he wants (however libelous it may be), but what really made me laugh is when he recently said:

"Capitalism did nothing for me."

Surely he had to be joking, right? He went on to say, "You know, I had to pretty much beg, borrow and steal. The system is not set up to help somebody from the working class make a movie like this and get the truth out there."

Let me see if I have the story straight - this poor little boy, who came from nothing, had to work hard to amass his $50 million fortune?

Sounds like a page straight out of the capitalism success book.

Pathetic.
