You seem to want to use this film as a means to start a political conversation in a non political forum. Good luck, this is where I bow out.
Not at all, Gavin. None of my comments have been political. Basically, I think what Moore does and the main theme of his films, right from the very first one, is to highlight the plight of the working/middle class in this country. It's not a pretty picture and that's the background Moore comes from so I understand his anger when he expresses it.
Essentially I think what he exposes is the general dishonesty in politics and how big corporations exploit both politicians (on both sides of the aisle) and the working/middle class of this country to a horrific degree. The difference is many of these politicians go along for their own benefit but the working people of this country continue to struggle.
If you see his film he is not only critical of the current president but also the previous president, and the person the current president ran against. He is not letting anybody off the hook...nor should he.
