assigned entry #4 - Capitalism at its finest

Micheal Moore did a very good job on the documentary he made titled Capitalism: A Love Story. 

He had much emphasis on the fact that he believed capitalism was a wrongdoing by the government to Americans, and that it was his civil duty to stop it. In the documentary he actually goes to a few places and acts like he is going to rob them, or try to get the money that the government is essentially stealing from us. This was a very funny and entertaining movie, however some of his uncanny antics came out, and he could have gotten into some real trouble for what he did. In the scene where he went and took the armored truck and backed it up to that massive bank and acted like he was going to take the money back, if he would have done that in real life, without confronting the banks about it, he would've most likely been arrested. His film did use a very good way of getting the information out to the people. He had well trusted people such as mayors and general managers of companies speak out about what has been going on in America in the last 50 years, as well as almost completely unknown people talk about their points of view.

Another interesting part in the movie was the part where he went to the factory where the workers were about to get laid off, and he spoke with most of them. The best part about that whole story is the fact they still stood up for what they believed in, whereas most people would have just let it happen. In America, not many people stand up for what they believe in anymore. and to me, this was proof that there is still some good left in America.
