It comes from having decreased freedoms and watching the country slip further and further into despotism.
Demagogues like Michael Moore only add flames to the fire. I hope that selling his soul to the powers that be was worth the $50 million.

Originally posted by whodeyThe problems the middle class faces is due to fact that the U.S. is quickly becoming a plutocracy ruled by the very rich. The very rich can afford to buy out the only two political parties with any power. The Supreme Court continues to erode the power of people to make significant changes at the poles by handing down decisions that further empower the rich and powerful.

And if there ever was....how long did it take for the very rich to change that ?
How long did it take the "poor people" taking charge before THEY became the "very rich"?

Originally posted by KazetNagorraYou managed to stumble onto the point. Yes, he lives the American dream, but preaches Marxism. As to his divorce, ho hum. Anyone interested knew he was a hypocrite long ago.
Michael Moore is a self-made man who got extremely wealthy creating and selling crappy sensationalist books and movies. You would think he'd make an excellent poster boy for the American Dream.
Originally posted by stellspalfieIf you've watched any Michael Moore flick he demagogues others for making money, while participating to the max in the capitalist system himself. Moore can believe and speak as he wishes, but we will expose his hypocrisy just the same. He is the greedy capitalist he condemns.
