Michael Moore’s multi-million dollar house:
Not only could protesters demand that he give back the fortune he has made using capitalism to deride capitalism, they could also demand he donate his underpants to be used as tents.
From here:
It’s no secret that Moore has made millions from his muckraking documentaries, and there’s no reason he shouldn’t have. As one of the most successful documentary film-makers ever, he’s successfully tapped a rich vein of anti-capitalist rhetoric that sells well among U.S. liberals.
What puts Moore in the Gore camp is his refusal to admit he shares the wealth of his targets, as if wealth and success in themselves are dishonourable. In an interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan he quails when asked to admit “the bleeding obvious”, i.e. that he’s a member of the 1%.
“How can I be in the 1%?” Moore responds. “Even though I do well, I don’t associate myself with those who do well. I am devoting my life to those who have less and have been crapped on by the system.”
Good news!
That’s NOT Moore’s house, it’s his Summer Estate!
Oh the hypocrasy is so amazing, yet not surprising.
You mean so long as you’re alone in all that space, or with only your wife and child, you’re virtuous? How is three people in what looks like a good size hotel moral? What about the carbon footprint, which must be nearly as heavy as your caloric intake and turkey wattles?
