you where doing ok until the ridiculous portrayal of a bank as you and a few friends getting together to start a business. Total rubbish if that where the case then they should have gone bankrupt with other business and individuals but unlike those other poor fools they happen to own congress and are able to steal taxpayers money to bailout their awful business practices.

The sad thing, Mr Katsenelson, is that you have swallowed the same tripe – albeit capitalist propaganda – that you criticize Mr. Moore for. The fact that you actually believe that corruption and bribery are not the norm in this capitalist concentration camp proves my point. In fact, it's just the normal, accepted cost of doing business. All you've done is traded sides – one slave labor camp for another – but, make no mistake, your mind is as enslaved as it was back in Mother Russia.

And my gosh, please try to erase anything you unfortunately picked up from that piece of capitalist garbage Atlas Shrugged until you have no shred of humanity left!

whatever VK, the bottom line doesn't consider the potential cost to communities and the environment, which actually creates greater losses for the very corporations limiting their definition of profits and success to the bottom line. Once the number-crunching, MBA-holding executives start drafting strategies that utilize the most basic logic of systems theory, capitalism will be worth defending. Everything is connected, only a greedy fool would fail to see that.

What's funny is that Mr. Moore is a very serious capitalist ( he have made a lot of money out of his movies , literally millions of dollars )

Vitaliy,

I have watched several of Moore’s other films for the express purpose that I disagree with him, and a different view point can be eye opening. However, I’ve come to the conclusion that he simply hates America. Personally I liken Moore to Ayn Rand’s antagonist from “The Fountainhead”, Ellsworth Toohey.

Thanks for the commentary, I think that the opinion of someone who grew up in Russia, is extremely relevant on such a subject.

Loved the comments Vitaliy. I think many Americans are beginning to realize Moore is just an idiot with a camera.

My first post. I am just about finished with your book and it is awesome. One of only a handful of investment books I have read that was worth the time spent. Right up there with Graham, Fisher and a few others.
