Moore Uses the Capitalist System to Make and Sell His Anti-Capitalist Movie and Uses Non-Union Workers to Do It

Liberal Logic. Michael Moore. Each an alliterative phrase. One an oxymoron and the other a moron of another type.
Michael Moore, champion of the working class used a non-union crew to film his new documentary, “Capitalism: A Love Story”. A movie in which Moore, who makes his fortune from his movie and book sales, attacks capitalism. Isn’t there a word for this? Perhaps a few…

Just give ‘em the grass!

It seems that a pillar of the Obamagenda is the redistribution of wealth. To be fair, I admit he warned us of this during his campaign. However, as one who has worked all his life to earn a living, I find this concept abhorrent. I consider myself to be in good company in this matter. Thomas Jefferson himself observed: “The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.” That my friends is just common sense.
However, if Mr. Obama would confiscate what I have earned to give to others of his choosing, I beseech him to refrain from the ruse of first running the seized funds through huge socialist, government-run programs. There, of course, bureaucrats, legislators, politicians, insiders and just plain thieves each siphon off their chunk leaving the remainder to to be sifted through the inefficiencies inherent in any government run program. The result is that the supposed beneficiaries of Mr. Obama’s generosity receive only the dross that dribbles out the other end and I am left wondering why I work so hard.
Skip the pitiful attempt to legitimize this armed robbery by forced taxation! Give them the grass Mr. President, not the horse crap that results when you process the grass through the government horse!
Why ruin the economy of a perfectly good nation and condemn it to the historical scrap heap of failed socialist states a few decades hence?
Just give ‘em the flippin’ grass!
Central planning has been thoroughly discredited. Why are our leaders intent on reviving it?

The great central planning experiments of the 20th century failed miserably both economically as well as a socially. Those that did not implode under the weight of their own bureaucracy either added a large dose of capitalism to the mix in order to survive or turned to complete totalitarian control of their citizenry.
Each “ideal society” resorted to murdering millions of their own citizens and completely subjugating their people. They caused immeasurable human suffering and misery, attempting to compel citizen compliance with the social plans the government had for their lives. In each case, personal liberties became non existent and the well being of the individual was sacrificed for the “benefit” of the state.
This is history we are talking about, recent history. In some cases it is still considered “current events”. Are we really naive enough to think that our president and his disciples in congress are unaware of these failed experiments? Do you really think that Mr. Obama is not aware of the fact that personal freedoms cease to exist and are replaced by human suffering in any central planning scenario?
Why then does he look to central planning for his answers to the needs of our nation? His answers to health care reform, energy conservation, the rescue of the financial and auto industries as well as economic stimulus all rely on central planning and central government control. Why is it that we have self proclaimed communists, socialists and other left wing radicals holding high positions in our government and advising the president of the United States?
Could his knowledge of history be the reason for this campaign statement? “We can not continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we have set. We’ve gotta have a civilian national security force that is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded as the military.” Is that perhaps why the establishment of this civilian national security force was at the top of his post election agenda? The Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act was actually passed and became law April 21, 2009, establishing this force to be used domestically for dealing with civil unrest.
Could this knowledge also be the motivation for the tens of thousands of U.S. military troops that are being trained at Fort Stewart, Ga. to be used within the United States? (this force started at 20,000, and the FBI recommended that it be increased to 80,000 and recent reports indicate the numbers have been increased far beyond that.
What is the purpose of S.773: Cybersecurity Act of 2009, which in essence gives the executive branch the power to shut down the internet at its discretion?
Is it possible that our leaders fully understand the magnitude of the task they face in forcing central planning on the freedom loving citizens of the USA and are preparing to do it anyway?
