Michael Moore has made huge amounts of money sensationalizing the anti-capitalist movement amongst his most staunch and steadfast liberal-socialist viewers.
He has created documentaries, movies, films, and even written books that cater to the notion that capitalism is bad.
This is completely hilarious and somewhat outrageous when you really think about it, especially considering that Michael Moore makes money creating content that his viewers desire, even if the content he produces isn't true.
He's a capitalist, pure and simple.
In essence Michael Moore says he dislikes how capitalism is working in practice, in the real world, but makes money as a capitalist, yet, continues to trash it.
How does that work exactly? Michael Moore says it's not fair for business owners to make lots of money, he says that businesses should also do good, do good for the country, and do good for the welfare of all citizens.
Interestingly enough, this was Adolf Hitler's belief when he slowly took over the most profitable companies and hired back the owners of those companies after he nationalized them to run the companies as managers.
In fact, they became employees of the state, and did not have a choice, in essence they were slaves.
Indeed, I find Michael Moore's arguments and those of Adolf Hitler outrageous because capitalists make money by giving people what they want.
And people pay with a unit of trade that we call a dollar for the things that the capitalists create for them.
Therefore, the capitalist has already given to society, by making available what people wanted.
Moore thinks they shouldn't be allowed to make that much money, but rather give the money back and spread the wealth for the common good of all.
Not only is his logic and argument fundamentally flawed, but what he's suggesting is that we should ditch capitalism for some sort of Michael Moore "Socialism-Capitalism Hybrid" but the problem is that the two concepts were theories are 180-degrees apart.
You cannot force capitalism into a Socialism model, or one which is controlled by the state dictating price controls, production, and labor costs.
Businesses don't work that way in the free market system, and if we dismantle the free-market system then production will go to hell, there will be shortages, and there will be a middle class because everyone will be poor.
Why should we listen to M.
Moore who wants to bring about the "Ayn Rand Affect" exactly what she warned us about by destroying businesses and limiting capitalists to what he believes might be a fair amount of money they're allowed to make? That's insane in my opinion, actually this entire articles is my opinion, and I trust it more than Moore's.
