Entry #4: Capitalism: A Love Story

Michael Moore's film was more a story of hate than anything else.  It helped reinforce negative opinions that I already have, regarding politicians and the government.  It was surprising to see how big business takes advantage of how our economy is run, and how they benefit from the deaths of their employees.  It's been said that politicians can't be trusted, and even with examples and proof, nothing is done about it.  Large corporations are the ones funding the politicians who are creating laws that only benefit the corporations themselves.  It makes people like us feel helpless, because we don't have the money or the influence that big companies have access to, and we can't make the changes that need to be made.  So, what do we do?  We don't have any way to hold companies and corporations accountable, unless we become informed and take action, otherwise nothing is ever going to change.

Canada is looking pretty good!
