I have a cousin who used to "work" with Moore in Flint. He says Moore's story about struggling to work and go to school is just one more lie. My cousin says what really happened was that Moore rarely showed his face at the plant beyond payday and actually had others punch his time card for him. Poetically my cousin also says Moore used to steal lunches from the break room when he was there.

Its interesting to me that Moore later went on to make the movie Roger and me about the evil corporation was actually the one ripping the company off.(along with many other employees)

Well, to be fair, Roger Smith was one big fat target who mismanaged GM into a hideous tailspin from which it is only now recovering.

Moore was pretty shrewd in picking his first target. Of course GM probably could not have survived if it had not laid off people, so the premise of the film is a bit much. If he'd criticised GM for horrible product planning and producing cars of near-Soviet grade design and quality, I would have applauded right with him.
