Hot Mic exclusive: Moore wants 50% income tax rate, wont donate to US Treasury [VIDEO] By Nicholas Ballasy 12:20 AM 01/13/2012
Academy award-winning filmmaker Michael Moore told The Daily Caller in an exclusive interview that he wants the United States to enact a 50 percent tax rate for Americas highest-earning taxpayers, but would not donate to the U.S. Treasury himself.
Moore did not deny reports that his net worth exceeds $50 million, but stressed that he uses his money, which he called a private matter, to attack the GOPs position on lower taxes. He told TheDC at Washington, D.C.s Union Station on Thursday that he does not credit capitalism for his commercial success in the film industry, saying that socialist countries have movies too.
Asked by TheDC if he would like to move to another country, given his anti-capitalist leanings, Moore said, Im not leaving.

I may be wrong but Michael Moore is a classic example of a fascist!!
Capitalism is fine for those HE shares similar beliefs.
Anyone who disagrees with should have their wealth confiscated by the state.
Note the ultimate goal for Marxist socialists is the emancipation of labor from alienating work, and therefore freedom from having to perform such labor to receive access to the material necessities for life.
Now I see why you are a Socialists, you want to stop working and still have all the benefits!
Michael Moore and Debbie Schultz are the best friends the Republic has right now. With them at the forefront of the Progressive tide, Jeffrey Dahmer could get elected over obama.
Hey Michael, don’t forget the desert. Try the Double Death by chocolate-—ala mode.
Please move...try North Korea.
Once he's done this for a few years, and we can see how well his film making prospers under this burden, we can make decisions on how it should be expanded to include others.
I can’t believe this blood sucking tick still hasn’t exploded yet.
Curious...he should be “free to use his own money” but the rest of us can just go to hell.
Hilarious that this idiot is able to con so many Occupiers with this doublespeak of his.
