Where to Invade Next Official Trailer 1 (2016) - Michael Moore Documentary HD

Last edited Mon Feb 15, 2016, 02:34 AM - Edit history (1)



We went to see the movie this afternoon, mostly people of our age (boomers) with sporadic applause at certain points as well as gasps at other not so pleasant portrayals of our society, mainly our prison system.

In the end many of the ideas that have been implemented were ideas that were espoused by our country at some time ... long, long ago.

How did we stray so far from caring for people and at the same time try to advance our nation as PART of the world?

Another eye opening documentary from MM.

and asked if we could help. Fortunately a theater about 30 minutes away was showing the film, as we know other theaters will pick it up if there is a good showing, especially in the first week.

Wishing he takes care of himself as we need him to highlight injustices that we are all to willing to accept.

I'm not packing my bags yet. Bernie has a chance. But it's tempting when I see common sense countries. We aren't one of those. Maybe we'll become one.

but we need to look at the big picture.

We can only people a country that works for all if we have the courage.
