Wall Street, the banks, and corporate America, has been able to call the shots here. They control our members of Congress and they get what they want.

More quotes by Michael Moore
Instead of the Government spending $400,000 on immunisation, we may get far better health outcomes if we spend $100,000 in some other way, on nutrition for example...When you have an expenditure on getting your community healthier, then the resistance to many childhood diseases is stronger.
Michael Moore
You do not have the right to take another human's life, unless it's in strict self-defense.
Michael Moore
I would like to apologize for referring to George W. Bush as a 'deserter.' What I meant to say is that George W. Bush is a deserter, an election thief, a drunk driver, a WMD liar, and a functional illiterate. And he poops his pants.
Michael Moore
I think I'm in the majority of Americans. I believe that I am in the mainstream of middle America.
Michael Moore
Sometimes it's important to vote - you know, to make a statement, to make a point certainly, many of us who were involved in the Nader campaign in 2000 felt that way.
Michael Moore
I remember the first time I received a cassette tape of a band called The Clash. I became an instant fan of the Clash and then bought their albums after that and went to their concerts and gave them my money... but I first got it for free.
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
And realising that humour is the most powerful way to make a political statement and say the things that you want to say. And it's not used enough, at least not in the U.S.
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
The motivation for war is simple. The U.S. government started the war with Iraq in order to make it easy for U.S. corporations to do business in other countries. They intend to use cheap labor in those countries, which will make Americans rich.
Michael Moore
I'll tell you who doesn't have any personal responsibility. Companies like General Electric and others who pay absolutely no income tax.
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
I assume everything I'm saying in an email or saying on the telephone is being looked at.
Michael Moore
Filmmakers and artists always thrive during more liberal times.
Michael Moore
A lot of political people, especially people on the left, have forgotten the importance of humor as an incredible weapon, and a vehicle through which to affect change.
Michael Moore
If your bank took bailout money, take your money out of that bank and put it in a credit union. Credit unions are owned by the people who have their money in the credit union.
Michael Moore
Today just 400 Americans have more wealth than half of all Americans combined.
Michael Moore
I was kind of a strange child. My parents knew early on that something must have been wrong with me. I crawled backwards until I was two, but had Kennedy's inaugural address memorized by the time I was six.
Michael Moore
They are possibly the dumbest people on the planet... We Americans suffer from an enforced ignorance. We don't know about anything that's happening outside our country. Our stupidity is embarrassing.
Michael Moore
If the guy out in the woods with the Michigan Militia is a real estate negotiator, instead of some crackpot, and has a normal life, that's unnerving. You don't want to think it's as normal as the guy next door, hedging his lawn. It's easier to demonize or separate them off from 'us.'
Michael Moore
