October 30 Capitalism: a love storyDon't know what it's talking about for the first 50 minutes. Then i got the idea. Capitalism is something that makes rich richer, and the poor poorer. The rich(1%) has everything, and the power. The rest 99% could put up with it because the capitalism propoganda made them believe that one day, they would become part of the rich — it was called the 'american dream'. And finally, they found that it would never happen.
In the film they say capitalism is evil, and it is opposite to the good. Then i was thinking, what about its so called 'opposite' - socialism, a word used in the election to scare the voters away from Obama? He didn't mention. I remember in Moore's Sicko, he dramatically took the patients to Cuba, a country perceived as a lot poorer and the 'opposite' to the US, for free treatments to show how ridiculous the health insurance system was in the US. But this time, he didn't do anything like that. Is it because he can not find a remarkable contrast?
The solution he proposed was democracy. One person one vote is the weapon they got to rebel. Then they have Obama. And then? He didn't say. Comments (1)
