There are a lot of ways to make a buck. Capitalism is only one of them. I have no problem with Moore getting rich by selling his get-the-rich message to resentful people. Of course the market for what he sells will always be limited. Only capitalism can create huge markets by opening up wealth creation to the many. But there will always be carnies like Moore and there will always be marks. Break a leg, Mike.
MM is a stooge of the PPO division directors and VPs of the health insurance providers. Sicko came down harder on HMOs than on the "state of being uninsured". Thus I think Moore was actually funded or supported by the health insurance industry for the purposes of scaring people away from lower cost HMO plans into higher cost PPO plans.
