Nobody had a credit card when I was a kid. No one had credit card debt. But these big companies and banks wanted to know how to get more money out of people - get them charging things.

More quotes by Michael Moore
I've never supported this concept of going after Napster. I think the rock bands who fought this were wrong.
Michael Moore
I'm not a pundit. I'm not an analyst. I don't want to participate in the existing debate that's going on about whether or not you should be able to have as many guns as you want to have or that guns are even the problem.
Michael Moore
When you come from the working class and you do well enough whereby you can provide a little bit better for your family, get a decent roof over their head and send them to a good school, that's considered a good thing.
Michael Moore
I hate to say it, but killing is our way. We began America with genocide, then built it with slaves. The shootings will continue. It's who we are.
Michael Moore
I don't believe that the Bush Administration had something to do with September 11th. I do believe that there were a lot of warning signals, but I don't think they were ignored on purpose - Bush just wanted to go to the ranch for a month.
Michael Moore
I think as a filmmaker my first contribution would just be to make a good movie that people would love to see and leave the theatre charged, with a sense of excitement.
Michael Moore
Ask anyone on Social Security if their check comes on time every month. Like clockwork. And it comes through the so-called dilapidated U.S. mail. My dad's check literally will come on the same day every month. The government has been quite good and efficient at creating a number of systems.
Michael Moore
L.A. - talk about a cruel city: Patients are forcibly removed from hospitals.
Michael Moore
I certainly believe that I have no right to tell another couple whether they can or cannot be married.
Michael Moore
Part of my job is to read the paper, watch C-Span and show things that haven't been shown or were buried.
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.
Michael Moore
I think if people who are attacking me or against me, if they would just watch one of my films, they would - they may not agree with me politically on all the things I'm saying. But they will know at the end of the film that I love this country and that I have a heart. And they'll have a good laugh throughout the film.
Michael Moore
Should such an ignorant people lead the world? How did it come to this in the first place? 82 percent of us don't even have a passport! Just a handful can speak a language other than English.
Michael Moore
You survive by having your fear compass calibrated correctly. Our compass is off now because we're being told to be afraid of everything. The things that we're frightened of, or told to be frightened of, are not necessarily the things that we need to fear.
Michael Moore
I think I'm in the majority of Americans. I believe that I am in the mainstream of middle America.
Michael Moore
I like BuzzFeed, and I understand the pressure that online reporters are under. But I think everyone agrees that, despite all the awesome kitten gifs, they're still obligated to be skeptical of government officials and ask the right questions.
Michael Moore
What I'm asking for is a new economic order. I don't know how to construct that I'm not an economist.
Michael Moore
I was one of the first 18-year-olds in the United States elected to public office right after 18-year-olds got the right to vote back in the early '70s. I ran for the Board of Education.
Michael Moore
I take much of the attacks and the criticism toward me as being very class-based, but as Americans we don't like to acknowledge that reality.
Michael Moore
One thing I learned as a journalist is that there is at least one disgruntled person in every workplace in America - and at least double that number with a conscience. Hard as they try, they simply can't turn their heads away from an injustice when they see one taking place.
Michael Moore
