I'm doing pretty well and so are you. To make a movie edited to meet the authors point of view isn't my idea of getting ahead and never will be. I've lived in europe and they don't have it any better then we do they just have it differently. If that suits you I'm sure there is housing available to you. I prefer to live here in america. If I had the same attitudes that some of you do i wouldn't live here, but that has always been the difference between us. If I don't like america I can always go somewhere else. You would rather take all the bad things and put a spotlight on them as if there is no good anywhere here or in Moores case just lie to suit your needs. That isn't reality. Change to suit the way you want to live, don't think your going to change things to make me live the way you want me to. Especially based on edited film that says what ever they want it to. > Yeah, for too long everyone believed that line big >business keeps feeding us that americans have it >better than anyone else in the world, there are no >alternatives to our capitalist system.
