Rueters ^ | 9/6/09 | Mike Collett-White

VENICE (Reuters) - Capitalism is evil. That is the conclusion of U.S. documentary maker Michael Moore's latest movie "Capitalism: A Love Story," which premieres at the Venice film festival on Sunday. Blending his trademark humour with tragic individual stories, archive footage and publicity stunts, the 55-year-old launches an attack on the capitalist system, arguing that it benefits the rich and condemns millions to poverty.

It’s a free country, so Michael Moore has the freedom to make a public fool of himself.

Liberalism is a mental disease, and Moore is a flaming ruptured hemorrhoid.

Sure kept him up to the top of his scalp in food. Maybe that’s the evil he was referring to. If he had lived someplace where all he got is a bowl of rice a couple of times a day he wouldn’t be the ‘big’ movie maker he is today.

Moore is just another Obama-loving Marxist “social advocate” making his views known.

The movie...was paid for by capitalism. The guy who came to interview Moore...is paid by capitalism. The theaters that play Moore’s movie....runs off capitalism. The popcorn and drinks bought at the movie theater for the movie...came from capitalism. The network that does Moore interviews for the movie...operates only through capitalism. The car that brought people to see the movie...was paid by capitalism. The gas that they used for the car that brought them to the theater...was paid by capitalism.

Frankly, does Moore even grasp the common features of capitalism? Maybe it’s time he makes a movie on diets and explains why none of them work.

If Moore does not like capitalism....then we should get some poor commies to seize his $2 million dollar mansion....and tax his millions by, hmmm, 198%.

Betcha he does not act Commie Socialist when it comes to his own money....

Moore probably made a large investment in this film. It will have a modest draw for one afternoon, and that'll exhaust his West Hollywood audience.

So far. One day it may be only the likes of him who are the ones still able to make public fools of themselves.

Normally I would advocate for pirating movies as to deprive the Hollywood Left of revenue, but even this isn’t worth pirating.

Michael Moore is a poster boy for a good capitalist....he makes millions berating his country....it is time he was tarred and feathered and run out of the country. Who needs this rubbish? Perhaps the Progressives can find him some work in one of Pelosi’s factories or he can find work at the Barney Frank house........

“Capitalism is the worst system of government ever created. Except for all the others”. Can’t remember who stated this.

Mr. Sicko strikes again. Moore, why don't you move your ungrateful lard-ass to one of your socialist paradises? Perhaps Cuba or North Korea?

The libs have gone from “We’re not socialists” to “Capitalism is evil.”

It’s all a matter of timing and incrementalism to them.

I’m hoping for the new movie he will have washed his hair.

I missed the part where he says he’s going to give up every dollar he’s ever earned in this country by doing what are basically big PR stunts and making “movies” of them?

When the limousine liberals hypocrites talk about the evil of capitalism they mean the other people who have money and made their fortune through capitalism. Remember for the socialists, socialism only apply to other people but not to them, they are super capitalists in their own life style.
