Michael Moore: We’re Going To Replace Capitalism As We Know

02 Nov 2011 08:20 #1 by outdoor338
Michael Moore tells CNN’s Anderson Cooper that capitalism as we know it is over. Moore say capitalism is where “the problem” is. Moore was broadcasting from “Occupy Oakland.”

“So, let’s not use the old definition where we think — when we say capitalism, we’re talking about 2011. 2011 capitalism is an evil system set up to benefit the few at the expense of the many. That’s what happened, and that’s what people are tired of. Which is too bad for the capitalists because I think a lot of people, perhaps in this crowd, probably used to support the ‘old-style’ of capitalism,” Moore said on CNN.

“So, what system do you want?” Anderson Cooper asked Moore.

“Well there’s no system right now that exists. We’re going to create that system. This movement, this movement in the next year, or two, or few years is going to create a democratic economic system. That’s the most important thing. Whatever we come up with it has to have at its core — the American people are going to be the one’s controlling this economy. We’re going to have a say, a big say, the say in how this economy is run,” Moore said.

Great post. While the public side of OWS wants to just tax the rich more and get their debts cancelled, the real leaders want to take down capitalism. How many of the people in tents are ignorant dupes who don't realize this?

I hope you're not calling Michael Moore a "real leader."

He's an entertainer who makes money off his left-wing schtick.

Kind of like a reverse Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Rielly, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, ad nauseum...

Do you believe there can be leaders on either side who are NOT politicians? If so, who would you consider to be a leader of the left?

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

No, I don't. Why would you want a leader of a political party who is not a politician? That makes no sense to me.

That reveals a lot about you, doesn't it.

The current leader of the Republican party is more a campaign manager than a politician.
