Michael Moore Loves Capitalism?!

November 29, 2011
 
Moore is back in East Lansing to sell copies of his latest capitalist creation.
 
Yesterday morning, I received an email from James Madison College at Michigan State University promoting Michael Moore (yep, the same one with the $2 million Torch Lake mansion) and his upcoming appearance on campus. Although unfortunate news, the media alert was much appreciated. However, MSU Campus Conservatives will be holding a pre-planned panel discussion – entitled “What’s the Matter with Campus?” (http://on.fb.me/tQ1xWP) – at the same time.
 
The MSU event is part of a five-stop Michigan swing to close out Moore’s “Here Comes Trouble: Stories from My Life” book tour. This calls for an ‘I Love Capitalism’ protest, huh? A wealthy mockumentarian, whom deeply sympathizes with and supports the Occupy Wall Street crowd, deserves some pushback from collegians. We are not all mindless, government-is-the-answer zombies, after all!
 
Moore will be speaking at the MSU Concert Auditorium (Wharton Center) beginning at 7:30 pm this evening, Tuesday, November 29. General admission is $7.50, while students must only finance $5 toward the far-left hypocrite’s fortune. I couldn’t see myself feeding the fat man, not even one Lincoln. A free show would be more fitting of the socialist line, but consistency is not a virtue.
