Ok, I took awhile to make this post, but right now I am writting this paper for my Soc class and I am trying to write it, but I just keep getting distracted. Anyways Ill just wake up at 11am and finish it, haha, I love college. Anyhoot, I am one of the last people to become a fanatic about something. Generally I hate any type of fanatics, especially religous ones(By the way, incase I am using the word fanatic wrong, by using it I mean someone who overly belives in someting I think is BS).
Mike Moore wrote two popular books and one great movie. Book one was: Random Threats from an unarmed American(I sometimes miswrite that title, so bare with me) His newest book, which almost was not published was called Stupid White Men, focusing on GW and Gore. His movie, The Big One, which is a video of his book tour. Moore lives in Flint, MI(Where I go to school). He got laid off and wrote a book. His book is simply about this. Companies that make millions or even billions of dollars in profit(thats money money you end up with after you pay off all of your costs :) ) yet continues to close down plants in the US to save money and hire more or less slave labors for 50 cents an hour. This might seem like nothing new, but the way he presents it, really will change you. In his book, he shows a picture of the Federal building bomed in Oaklahoma and and a shutdown factory, and asks what is terrorism and how is it different from closing down factories. He has a good point.
I ask all of you to go rent his movie, The Big One, it is VERY funny. He starts it off as showing checks he sent to politiions. One was to Clinton from the Dope Growers of America. Another one(I forgot who it was sent too) from the Pedifiles for XXXX(XXXX being the persons name). He also sent two others out, from various groups. All were cashed. He also walkes into the offices for these companies with 80 cent checks to help pay for the first hour of the new labor the company will be using. His focus is American Companies Screwing over the American people not to make a profit, but to make a bigger one. Anyway, watch the video, and take a look at what is happening, its not good.
