Not all businessmen are good....In fact, many businessmen hate competition and free enterprise, and will seek out to use government to keep out competition.
Exactly! If I hadn't read Jonah Goldberg's Liberal Fascism I would have had a much harder time working out the message of the movie. That's why you see so many major corporations donating to Democrats, even the major corporate foundations giving to PBS, etc. Unfortunately LIV's like this reviewer are in danger of misinterpretation since their thoughts never go any deeper than business=bad, government=good. But for the informed it's impossible to miss. I'm thinking of Emmet's enthusiastic listing of all the "cool stuff" President Business does for the people, like make the dumb tv shows, run the government, build the chain restaurants, sell the overpriced coffee, create the voting machines..."huh???" It was great.
Oh, another source that was instrumental in seeing the corporate/government interest in micromanaging our lives was John Taylor Gatto's Underground History of Education in America, the link to which some great FReeper posted here a month or so ago. Thank you whoever you are!!!
