The film blames the economic crisis on President Reagan-era deregulation and greedy business executives who Moore believes undermined free enterprise by pushing for policies that benefited the richest 1 percent while hurting the lower and middle classes.

I really want to see this film. Lots of people complained about Michael Moore's other films, but no one could deny the facts.

This video is old but it is still relevant today and will be until the damage done by the republicons is finally repaired.

Mike must be running out of food money. I really dislike this guy. Let me explain why. When I saw his first movie I thought hey the guy is really trying to do something good there in Mich. for the people. BUT when I saw him appear on a German TV channel Iwas watching on the net and bad mouthing America in Germany I thought this fat idiot is just out to make a buck. He"ll go anywhere and bad mouth the US if he thinks he can stuff his pockets and those pockets are pretty big in this case.

What a massive lie, the dark cynical conceit that repugs are the holders and protectors of capatalism. What a lying crock of liquid crap.

Repugs have done all they can ever day of their greedy atavistic lives to destroy capitalism, in favor of a theocracy/totalitarian state where the richest 1 percenters own everything, including having the power to decide who lives and dies. The goal of repugs is to remake america into Saudi Arabia.
Without regulation, without public health care, without public controlled news, there is NO democracy, its a totalitarian state controlled by insurance monopolies and oil companies and media right wing moguls.-

That's interesting, the first part of your statement sounds like a description of Soviet Russia, and we all know what a vibrant democracy that was. -

Hold on. You know I'm so tired of this fat moron and his anti American propaganda. You know he has the audacity to protest non-union shops yet he's fired every one of his writers in the union. While he was pushing for health care paid for by employers he made his staff chose between firing staff to cover the costs for health care or going without insurance. He claims to fly like a normal person but for speaking tours insists on a G4 or larger. He's a capitalist who lies and benefits from everything he claims he's against. The man is a sack of poop. I'd rather sit through an Oliver Stone movie, at least you know he's a fraud.

Michael is a hero...he tells it like it is and if he look like JFK more people would take him seriously.

Many Americans don't want to know the truth about their country and if they knew maybe they would get out on the streets more and protest all the crap.
the USA is a facade of a democratic country.
