Entry #6 Capitalism is not capitalism

When you think about America you think about democracy and capitalism. Most people see the old America. They see Americans living their best life and not having about companies infringing on their rights. While watching Moore's film I was thinking about how many of my friends and family had been a part of stuff that they had been doing, like the life insurance policies companies are pulling out for their workers without notifying them. Americans should not live in a constant state of fear of losing their jobs or wondering how they are going to support themselves or their families. As citizens we should be able to live the lives that we want to live and be paid what we should be payed to be able to support ourselves and our families. As Americans we should be able to decide how companies get to run their businesses, especially if what they are doing is directly effected us as workers. Moore's style was extremely effective with convincing his audience which is the general public and society of America. He is convincing us that we need to work together and put a stop to all of the corruption and political nonsense happening today in the peoples country. Overall the film was extremely effective and helped me understand more about how the economy is and how the rich have direct control over how everything in this country is run and how it should be run. The rich are only 1% of society but have more say in everything then the rest of the percentage of the population and that needs to be stopped.
