WHO: Documentary filmmaker Michael Moore WHAT: Moore indicted the capitalist system as “not democratic.” He also suggested that recent riots in Britain resulted from anger among looters over misuse of their tax money.
WHY IT’S DIM: First, Moore has a net worth of $50 million thanks entirely to the capitalist system he protests. Second, after making a film that praised Fidel Castro’s undemocratic Cuba, he remains blind to the fact that the American system is democratic enough to tolerate and even reward his stupidity.
