Michael Moore: Wealthy Americans’ Money is a ‘National Resource’
**Written by Doug Powers
Yesterday, Michael Moore said that the money of wealthy Americans “isn’t theres, it’s ours,” and is a “national resource.”
This is why the wealthy filmmaker has taken the unprecedented step of posting his bank account numbers online so all Americans can have access to the vital national resource that is “our” money. I’m impressed by th… what? He didn’t do that? I would have expected otherwise because he’s usually not hypocritical that way….
It also looks as if Michael should demand that the weight loss clinic give him his money back. Whoops, I mean, give him our money back.

So why doesn’t he go on a diet and give the money saved away? Didn’t he just file suit not too long ago to try to recover more money for one of his ridiculous movies?
Looks like he’s got a turtle head poking out. My apologies to StaceyOfLiberty for the Fat Bastard reference. As for Mr. OfLiberty, I don’t care about his weight. He’s not trying to undermine my private property rights like Jabba the Butt.
@passingruffian – ah, it’s cool.
I know I’m too sensitive.
And now I’m seriously going to get off of here and do some writing…
*In Michigan, there’s the upper peninsula, the lower peninsula, and Moore Mountain, the one that is mobile and spews hot gas from time to time; I cannot think of a more serious waste of skin than this fool!
ROFLMAO!
Nurse Ratched: Aren’t you ashamed?
Michael: No, I’m not.
[Applause from friends]
Nurse Ratched: You know Michael, what worries me is how your mother is going to take this.
Michael: Um, um, well, y-y-y-you d-d-d-don’t have to t-t-t-tell her, Miss Ratched.
Nurse Ratched: I don’t have to tell her? Your mother and I are old friends. You know that.
Michael: P-p-p-please d-d-don’t tell my m-m-m-mother.
If that’s how he feels, then he can use a chunk of his money to relocate to another country – one where socialism, soaking the rich, etc. are common practices and not just wet-dream fodder for people like him.

The only natural resource that gets this bloated gasbag excited are cheeseburgers.
Moore: [rips a cigarette in half] I bet a nickel.
McMurphy: Dime’s the limit, Moore.
Moore: I bet a dime.
[Puts the two halves onto the table]
McMurphy: This is not a dime, Moore. This is a dime.
[shows a whole cigarette]
McMurphy: If you break it in half, you don’t get two nickels, you get sh*t. Try and smoke it. You understand?
Moore: Yes.
McMurphy: You don’t understand.
Somebody should introduce Moore to Bernanke. If Ben is unavailable, Michael could spend a day at one of the lovely tours at any Federal Reserve Branch to get a nice education.
Then he might be a little better informed as to where money comes from.
Moore is nothing more than Fidel Castro with a big fat gut.
Didn’t this tub of lard put his money into a trust or something where it wouldn’t be taxed as much? I seem to recall something from a year or two ago where he did that. Why not donate it all to Obama for his stash?
You can’t have any more of my money.
Weeeeellll…
I guess the Weinsteins’ money is a more of his personal resource.
Nah, I’m sure he’s just trying to get us our money!
“I don’t want your
cigarettesmoney, I want MYCIGARETTESMONEY”Oh, he won’t do that, then they would want to take his money…
What is with this guy? He uses the capitalist system to bash capitalism and makes a pile of money. He attacks states for “abusing” union workers but, refuses to use union workers when he makes his movies, that make a pile of money. Now, he says anyone with a pile of money should give it all up but, refuses to give his up. Why is it that communists, as he surely is, never notice they are hypocrits? He better save what he’s got ’cause I don’t see him making any more.
I don’t really mind hypocrites, as I find that to be a synonym for “humans”.
I absolutely mind, however when Leftests cite conservative and Republican hypocrisy in an effort to silence us on any issue.
If there is any hypocrisy I cannot stand, it is being a hypocrite about being a hypocrite.
One would think with the almost complete lack of standards that Lefties will accept, they might be able to follow the few they have a little better.
When MM starts lobbying Hollywood to release all its stored wealth to the public, that is, when the entire archive of movies and television is released in the public domain so I can download anything I want for free, then I’ll listen.
I mean most movies and television shows have recouped their production costs within the first year or so, perhaps even in the first few days if it’s a blockbuster, so any sales after that is pure profit. Shouldn’t that be considered EVIL in Michael Moore’s reality?
I do stand corrected; it was Joan Rivers and not Phyllis Diller. And supposedly JR and Liz were really good friends.
The actual comment by JR was not the Hong Kong white pages, but the Chinese phone book (i.e., I wouldn’t say that Elizabeth Taylor is overweight, but she has more chins than a Chinese phone book.)
Yes…a hyprocrite being a hypocrite. How lovely. Moore has been accused of moving all his money off-shore to avoid paying taxes, but I don’t have a source to cite that. He’s a loud talking, KrispyKreme eating bore…and, no, I’m not giving him a damn dime.
Moore is a stupid Socialist weasel stuffed with ham.
He’s got an interesting philosophy about money…
It reminds me of this Mr. Show sketch
Oops. Link didn’t work. Well, anyway it reminds me of the “Josh Fenderman” sketch on Mr. Show. The spoiled Hollywood brat blew all his cash and then sued the treasury for his money back. He won his lawsuit and then all the money from then on had to be printed with the disclaimer: “Money isn’t yours anymore after you spend it.”
Hahahahaha.
If I tell it differently, I’m funny.
If I just repeat it verbatim, she’s funny.
Let’s not forget Venus Williams who, despite living in FL with no state income tax, complained to Bill Clinton that her federal taxes were too high.
As to Michael Moore, all I can is wow. Just wow. His level of hypocrisy nearly defies further comment.
Whenever I hear lefties complaining about wealth redistribution, especially the poor demanding that someone take from the producers and give to the observers, I think of those obnoxious commercials about the company that “buys” your annuity for pennies on the dollar.
“It’s my money and I want it NOW”, they shout throughout the commercial, with no acknowledgement that they wind up with so very little of “their” money.
If I am not able to skip forward (Thank Goodness for the DVR), I mute the TV when these insipid commercials are on. If I want to see people yelling about getting “their” money, I can watch a democratic national convention, or a union protest, or an Obama town meeting.
You know, I am constantly amazed at the number of incredibly wealthy Liberals that seemingly live in denial of their wealth and talk like they are just one of us. Especially those in Hollywood and Washington. This fat turd is among the worst, with all his hypocritical Wall Street investments.
He is welcome to allow me to solve my financial worries as soon as he gives me access to OUR bank account, but we all know the biggest lying hypocrite in Hollywood ain’t about to do that.
So start handing out checks FAT BOY!!!!
