Michael Moore is a scumbag who soaks up taxpayer subsidies then brags about the profit he makes off his “non profits”.

Most recently he’s getting HUD money to fix up old theaters and bragging that he pays his employees a living wage and gives them full health coverage.

The reality is that his theaters only have 1 or 2 full time employees and are primarily staffed by volunteers too stupid to know he’s screwing them and he’s already been forced to withdraw movies because Hollywood studios have threatened to sue him for running their movies without paying for them.

No Marxist, fascist or Nazi could have set it better. We are all just “tools” of the state and our property, money and even our lives all belong to the government who in its benevolence lets us keep a little of it. The God given inalienable rights of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness are meaningless to these people.

This dickweed’s district is some of the wealthiest people in Minnesota (Edina). A bunch yoga pants wearing, Range Rover driving, cake-eaters. They feel good because they are so progressive they elected a muslim.

Buncha Clymers.

OK, if the govt needs more money, then get more, faster printing presses.

That’s where it comes from, right? Then they give the money to the usual (EBT, etc.). May need to tax them, or don’t give them so much. If the govt needs more money, quit giving it away.

Print more, and keep it. Scrooge McDuck’s money bin.

The government has a right, the government and the people of the United States have a right to run the programs of the United States. Health, welfare, housing – all these things.”

No reasonable man having read Chief Justice Robert's opinion in Obamacare can confidently deny the truth of that statement.

If the government doesn’t have it all, it’s certainly not for lack of trying.

You mentioned God there, but the reality is that most of the people in control of America now have no such belief in God. To them, government IS their God. That is why America is circling the toilet and about to be flushed.

We have allowed this BS to grow and continue for far too long without speaking up, taking a stand and STOPPING IT. It’s way too late now.

But....that’s not how socialist ponzi schemes work.

"Michael Moore once said that corporations are sitting on trillions of dollars in cash, and that this cash is a “national resource” which should be spent and invested. He opposes corporations “hoarding” their money. Which in his opinion, I’m sure is an ill gotten gain, as opposed to earnings coming from running the business."

MM is a 1% - a hypocrite, and a very unattractive one at that. He has scads of money, properties, etc.

He is going up against divorce and is trying to buy off his wife so that his wealth will not go public. He is just a fat slob hypocrite.

But, we knew that already. He just doesn't want his 'peeps' to know about it. Might be the end to his gravy train.
