Digg! Ron Paul tweaks Michael Moore on capitalism, still agrees with him
Submitted by Liberty_Belle on Mon, 11/02/2009 - 09:43
Speaking to veteran CNN interviewer Larry King on Sunday, Texas Republican Congressman Ron Paul argued that he is just as upset with America's economic system as activist filmmaker Michael Moore -- except the longtime doctor does not believe the illness is purely based on capitalism.
"We have lost our faith and confidence and understanding in how free markets work," he said. "We turned it upside-down by saying that any time corporations get benefits, we call it capitalism and freedom, and it's corporatism. It's the military industrial complex. It's all the special interests."
Paul continued: "This is where Michael Moore gets it all wrong. He believes diligently in free markets because he believes in the First Amendment. He believes in making films. He doesn't believe in prior restraints. So, why should he condemn capitalism? He's condemning corporatism. I condemn it too. Special privileges for corporations is a big problem."

It's not a mistake in semantics,
when these leftists subsitute the term "capitalism" for the term "corporatism".
They know exactly what they are doing.
It's extremely difficult(but getting easier) for these leftists to admit that they are trying to install a Marxist government into the US, so they don't admit it.
They do everything that they can to demonize a capitalist free-market system, as a means to tear down their obstacles, and then use emotional euphemisms such as "progressive" and "compassionate" and such, to soften the appearance of their position for easier public consumption, via this deception.
I long ago abandoned the mistaken idea that these people are just ignorant or bumbling. No, it's far worse than that.
They know exactly what they are doing, and that makes them evil.
Dr. Paul was being very kind to Michael Moore, but Moore doesn't really deserve it.
Corporatism is the problem.
Thanks for educating me on this issue Dr. Ron Paul.
