L.A. - talk about a cruel city: Patients are forcibly removed from hospitals.
Michael Moore

These bastards who run our country are a bunch of conniving, thieving, smug pricks who need to be brought down and removed and replaced with a whole new system that we control.

Michael Moore
Image
The real problem with the IRS is that they let General Electric not pay any taxes -- and 50 other corporations -- that's the real scandal.
Michael Moore

I think that capitalism in general is responsible, not for the worldwide recession, but for a lot of suffering, both in the United States and around the world.
Michael Moore
Image
There's nothing pure about capitalism.
Michael Moore
Image
I think that there's something in the American psyche, it's almost this kind of right or privilege, this sense of entitlement, to resolve our conflicts with violence. There's an arrogance to that concept if you think about it. To actually have to sit down and talk, to listen, to compromise, that's hard work.
Michael Moore

This is the crux of the problem: because the Republicans and the right wing have been successful in almost eliminating unions, everyone else has suffered as a result.
