What he said

“If an infant industry cannot convince private investors to lend it money so it can get off the ground, it’s probably not that hot.  If people must also be forced to use it, then it’s probably pretty cold.  If it also must be protected from foreign competition, that’s absolute zero, baby.”

Michael & Me

In his 2009 film “Capitalism: A Love Story,” Michigan native
Michael Moore went to Wall Street with a request to corporate officials whose
companies received bailout money from the federal government.

Moore was criticizing an economic system he calls “legalized
greed,” but the Mackinac Center has discovered that Moore’s movie qualified for
a windfall ? at the expense of Michigan taxpayers.
