Michael Moore has a new documentary out, titled. "Capitalism: A Love Story". An investigation into the failings of the economic system that is a central tenet of American life in light of the recent financial crisis. At the premiere in Washington, DC, Michael Moore responded to a question about his supposed earnings to date, "[you have] amassed a fortune of over $50 million, some have said and -" Moore interrupted, “Really? Are you kidding me? Seriously? Wow. Where did it go?..Well, capitalism did nothing for me, starting with my first film.."

Mr Moore never had it handed to him on a plate. He had to work hard to get to the level he has. He despises capitalism because that's what it means. Working hard to make a living. The system he wants to replace it with is one that is founded on theft, violence, a regal liberal elite that subjugates the masses, state authorised freedom and massive subsidized sectors of society.

Michael Moore's films are the only reason why illegal downloading should exist.(Some would probably want to include Michael Bay films on there as well). It is the only way his films should be distributed. He should be made to sit down and perhaps think about his wealth and what he would have been rewarded with had he made films in communist Russia or North Korea. Indeed imagine if he had made films criticizing those regimes. Mr Moore should be grateful he lives in a free country and is somehow rewarded for his dross documentary films. Freedom and free exchange has granted him untold wealth, but he fails to see it. It is doubtful he ever will if his films are a reflection of his intelligence.

Fascism is communism

We ask that the government undertake the obligation above all of providing citizens with adequate opportunity for employment and earning a living. The activities of the individual must not be allowed to clash with the interests of the community, but must take place within its confines and be for the good of all. Therefore, we demand: … an end to the power of the financial interests. We demand profit sharing in big business. We demand a broad extension of care for the aged. We demand … the greatest possible consideration of small business in the purchases of national, state, and municipal governments. In order to make possible to every capable and industrious [citizen] the attainment of higher education and thus the achievement of a post of leadership, the government must provide an all-around enlargement of our entire system of public education … We demand the education at government expense of gifted children of poor parents … The government must undertake the improvement of public health – by protecting mother and child, by prohibiting child labor … by the greatest possible support for all clubs concerned with the physical education of youth. We combat the … materialistic spirit within and without us, and are convinced that a permanent recovery of our people can only proceed from within on the foundation of the common good before the individual good.

– From the political program of the Nazi Party, adopted in Munich, February 24, 1920.
