We saw it on Saturday, it is funny in parts, and tragic and absurd in parts. Who knew large corporations insured their employees and made themselves - the company - beneficiary? The employees are referred to as 'dead peasants. Some of the personal stories were so sad in a nation that should never treat its citizens in this manner. See it before you judge it and if you don't see it, please keep your empty opinions private as they would be based on the same emptiness that occupies your head.
The most interesting piece was the memo from, I believe citibank, on the have and have nots. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jonathan-kim/rethink-review-emcapitali_b_301540.html
"Another surprising disclosure is an internal Citigroup memo that claims that the US doesn't have an economy, but a "plutonomy" -- an economy based primarily on spending by the very rich. With the richest 20% of Americans responsible for over 60% of overall spending, the richest 10% accounting for 43% of income and 57% of net worth, and inequality between the rich and poor increasing unabated, the memo's authors feel that the smart investments are on the rich and their luxurious toys. The non-rich proles (AKA the rest of us) can fuck off and die unless we use our vast numerical advantage at the voter booth to pass laws restricting the redistribution of wealth from the poor and the disappearing middle class to the rich."
And FDR's bill of rights II is something I have posted but rarely seen.

"Myers is no stranger to "dead peasant" insurance lawsuits. In 2004, he successfully settled a $10.4 million lawsuit with Wal-Mart on behalf of more than 350 families of employees who had been secretly insured by the company."
