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 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
Most Americans, in their heart, are liberal and progressive. It's just a small minority of people who hate, they hate, they exist in the politics of hate, they don't believe two consenting adults should have the right to be in love and share their lives together and be legally protected by the state.
Michael Moore
Clearly I am a person who suffers from a lack of ego.
Michael Moore
All I ask is that you not be naive about how the government works when it decides to go after its prey.
Michael Moore
I was taught from a very early age that it was probably the most American thing you can do is to question what's going on and to try to fix things that you see that aren't right. I believed that as a young person, and I believe that today.
Michael Moore
I'm not a big believer in our copyright laws I find them way too restrictive.
Michael Moore
Occupy has to continue as a bold, in-your-face movement - occupying banks, corporate headquarters, board meetings, campuses and Wall Street itself. We need weekly - if not daily - nonviolent assaults right on Wall Street.
Michael Moore
There's nothing inherently or patently wrong with anybody who does well, works hard, earns a living, betters themselves. I'm not against any of these things. It's about how you make that money, and then what you do with it.
Michael Moore
People of my age who went to college, go into college, you know what it cost back then? Nothing or next to nothing. At the most, you had to work at Dairy Queen during the summer and that would pay for your college education.
Michael Moore
Democracy is not a spectator sport, it's a participatory event. If we don't participate in it, it ceases to be a democracy.
Michael Moore
I don't want people leaving the theater depressed after my movies. I want them angry.
Michael Moore
I assume everything I'm saying in an email or saying on the telephone is being looked at.
Michael Moore
I had a newspaper in Flint, Michigan called the 'Flint Voice,' and so it was a, you know, underground, alternative newspaper that I edited and put out for about ten years.
Michael Moore
How can there be inaccuracy in comedy?
Michael Moore
I'm caught up probably just as much in the consumer culture as the next person.
Michael Moore
We as Americans believe it’s OK to kill people. We believe it’s OK to invade a country that had nothing to do with 9/11. We think it’s OK to invade a country where we think Osama Bin Laden is and he’s in the other country. So we just go in and we just kill. And we have the death penalty, we sanction it.
Michael Moore
Halliburton is not a 'company' doing business in Iraq. It is a war profiteer, bilking millions from the pockets of average Americans. In past wars they would have been arrested – or worse.
Michael Moore
Post-war filmmakers gave us the documentary, Rob Reiner gave us the mockumentary and Moore initiated a third genre, the crockumentary.
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
I think people should start to practice the words 'President Romney.'
Michael Moore
