Michael Moore was interviewed by Rachel Madow the other night.
Mary Katharine Ham explains it all:
This week, Michael Moore offered a simple and elegant solution to our debt problem.
Calling the assets of wealthy Americans a “national resource,” he suggested our problems would all be solved if we could just have access to all that money.
“What’s happened is that we’ve allowed the vast majority of that cash to be concentrated in the hands of just a few people, and they’re not circulating that cash. They’re sitting on the money,” Moore said. “That’s not theirs, that’s a national resource, that’s ours. We all have this… we all benefit from this or we all suffer as a result of not having it.”
“America’s not broke,” he told a cheering crowd of pro-union protesters in Wisconsin.
Ms. Ham goes on to explain the fallacies in Mr. Moore's math. However, the subject that everyone misses is that, not only is Mr. Moore a Canadian citizen, but he's also one of the rich people that he decries in his rant. How do liberals deal with this dichotomy, Mink?
