Should we trust Michael Moore to tell us who our enemy is? The truth about Michael Moore was at http://www.moorelies.com but someone took it down. No problem, as of today you can still buy the book: Michael Moore Is a Big Fat Stupid White Man.

Bob and Harvey Weinstein produced the Love Story with a $1 billion fund from you guessed it...Goldman Sachs. [6]

The purpose of the movie is no secret. Moore lays it out in terms even a child can understand: "grab your torches and pitchforks... and rise up or else--he (Michael) is done making movies."

We are being conditioned, brainwashed and manipulated to rise up against The Powers That Be (TPTB).

Should we fall for this ruse and start a revolution?

In 1968 the Beatles released a double album called the White Album. On that album there is a song called "Revolution". John Lennon wrote the song not as a call to arms but as personal statement to the demonstrators. [7]

"So you say you want a revolution, well you know, we all want to change the world - when you talk about destruction brother you can count me out - you better free your mind instead."

I know not what course others may take, but as for me if it's a choice between Revolution, Starvation and the Swine FLU Shot give me Death.

[2] Much of the current acceleration in that disparity, and the increasing third world hunger that results from it, is a direct bi-product of the ill-advised and misleadingly-promoted bio-fuel revolution in the industrialized world.

The price of corn jumped 85% since 2002 due to corn/ethanol inflation.

Several studies by economists at the World Bank and elsewhere suggest that the number of food-insecure people in the world rises by over 16 million for every percentage increase in the real prices of staple foods. That means, they suggest, that 1.2 billion people could be chronically hungry by 2025. But those numbers are extremely conservative. How Biofuels Could Starve the Poor, C. Ford Runge and Benjamin Senauer, May/June 2007
