Michael Moore is a larger than life icon to some liberals. Yet he personifies much of what they oppose. He is extremely wealthy. He is rumored to use non-union labor in his movie projects. He is rumored to not give his employees good pay and benefits. He is rumored to aggressively seek out tax breaks from the localities in which he is making movies. He has quite a few things to answer for in his own business practices, and his own wealth.

I don’t begrudge anything he has legally done from tax breaks to making movies which touch a chord with liberal people who go see them. But Michael Moore is among that “evil 1%” we keep hearing about.

Michael even has a beautiful vacation home on a lakefront in Michigan. Wonder what his carbon footprint is there.

I understand his torch lake mansion is one of the most valuable peices of real estate in MI. Also the town is almost exclusively WHITE!. I guess he really IS part of the 99%. Kinda like that other hypocrite Bono (I'm always leery of anyone with no surname) who had a studio in Belfast, N Ireland to show solidarity with the locals who were oppressed by the Brits. A few yrs. ago he closed up shop and relocated to Brussels so he could catch a huge tax break.

Michael Moore is a con man, a poverty pimp. He is a capitalist who makes a lot of money making movies about how unfair it is for people to make a lot of money.
