Review of Capitalism: A Love Story (2009) by Cruisinlindam — 03 Oct 2009

We all need to know as informed voters these specific stories of how families lose their homes from foreclosure after generations of ownership because they were enticed to take home equity loans with harsh terms in small print.

We need to see how big corporations like GM cut thousands of jobs every year to increase productivity. We should know that corporations like Wal-Mart insured the lives of tens of thousands of low-level employees in what is called "dead peasant" insurance.

No wonder they provide inadequate health insurance. We see how they track profits based on mortality. We learn how Bank of America took over Republic Windows in Chicago and closed the factory without paying employees.

They staged a sit in for six days and got supportive visits from the bishop and members of Congress. Moore picks on Democrats as well as Republicans. At the end he shows solutions, like FDR's Second Bill of Rights and an interview with Sen.

Bernie Sanders of VT on Democratic Socialism. Regardless of your political biases, this film will open your eyes.
