MICHAEL MOORE SIGNED Dude, WHERE's MY COUNTRY? all WET

2003 1st EDITION "DUDE, WHERE'S MY COUNTRY?" BY MICHAEL MOORE, SIGNED BOOK.

THIS DESCRIPTION IS OPINION BASED, DO NOT READ ON IF YOU DO NOT WANT MY OPINION AS

THIS BOOK ASKS A GREAT QUESTION "IN TITLE" AND HERE IS MY RESPONSE.................

THIS BOOK WAS PURCHASED AT A FLEA MARKET ON SUNDAY, COMPLETELY SOAKEN WET FROM

RAIN THE DAY BEFORE. THAT IS WHY IT WAS ONLY 50 cents. BUT WHAT A FIND AS IT GIVES ME A

GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO RESPOND TO SUCH A PROFOUND QUESTION. WELL, THERE ARE A COUPLE

OF WAYS TO LIST IT, ONE IS IN THIS MANNER, THE OTHER BEING TO START IS @ 50 cents AND SELL IT TO THE

HIGHEST BIDDER. IF THAT WAS CHOSEN AND IT ONLY SOLD FOR $.50, MY COST + A LOSS IN PAYING E-BAY

AND PAYPAL FEES WOULD DEFINITELY PUT ME AT A LOSS. SO, MAYBE THIS IS WHAT A DERIVATIVE IS, GLAD

TO FIGURE THAT ONE OUT. THIS LISTING IS DESIGNED FOR THE PEOPLE WHO CONTROL 95% OF THE WEALTH

IN THIS COUNTRY, NOT FOR THE LOWER 5% WHICH CATEGORY I DEFINITELY FIT INTO. WITH A SUBSTANTIAL

OFFER HERE, MAYBE I WILL HAVE MY OWN BITE OF THE RECENT STIMULUS PACKAGE. OR MAYBE THIS LISTING

IS FOR THOSE CEO'S, VICE PRESIDENTS AND PRESIDENTS OF THOSE BANKING CONGLOMERATES AND FIRMS

WHICH DID GET A SLICE OF THAT PIE. HERE IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO HELP THOSE IN NEED. I DO HAVE SOME

FAITH IN THIS SYSTEM THOUGH, MAYBE WE CAN FIND A WAY TO TAX THE AIR THAT WE BREATHE AND GET THIS

COUNTRY BACK IN SHAPE AS IT SEEMS THAT IS THE ONLY THING FREE ANYMORE. SO, IS THE ANSWER CALLED

CAPITALISM OR SOCIALISM. WELL, AS LONG AS THEY DO NOT CONTROL E-BAY, MAYBE I HAVE A LONGSHOT CHANCE.

NOW FOR A REALITY CHECK HERE, IN OCTOBER I SUBMITTED AN ECONOMIC PLAN OF MY OWN TO BOTH CANDIDATES

AND TO SOME MEDIA. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THEY DID NOT READ THEIR E-MAILS, HAD THEY DONE SO THIS COUNTRY

WOULD BE MUCH BETTER OFF ECONOMICALLY THAN IT IS TODAY, FOR SURE. COULD IT BE ANY WORSE??????

THERE WOULD BE NO TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF DEBT. MY SOLUTION WAS TO GIVE ALL PEOPLE A DROP IN THEIR

MORTGAGE TO 2%, NO QUESTIONS ASKED, NO VERIFICATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR INCOME, NO CREDIT REPORTS.

IF YOU WANTED A DROP IN THE RATE, YOU GOT IT. EVERYBODY WAS ACCEPTED, NOT ONE NEIGHBOR AGAINST THE

OTHER. THE LOSS IN INTEREST RATE TAKEN ON BY THE BANKS WOULD GO BACK INTO THE END OF THE LOAN. THE

END LOAN WOULD NOT EVEN BE THAT MUCH MORE SUBSTANTIAL THAN THE ORIGINAL, I DID THE MATH ON IT. THE

BANKS WOULD NOT HAVE TO GET BAILED OUT LIKE THEY DID. THE SAVINGS IN A MONTHS PAYMENT WOULD HAVE

BEEN SUBSTANTIAL, TO PAY FOR FOOD, CLOTHING, KIDS COLLEGE, PAY OFF THE LOAN EARLIER OR TO TAKE THAT

EXTRA MONEY AND INVEST IN THE STOCK MARKET. SO WHAT WERE THINGS LIKE IN OCTOBER BEFORE THE ELECTION,

MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER THAN TODAY, FOR SURE.............WELL, I DO WANT TO THANK MR. MICHAEL MOORE FOR

ASKING THIS QUESTION, DUDE, WHERE IS MY COUNTRY............ONE CAN ONLY GUESS NOW...........SO, FOR ALL THAT

BELIEVE IN CAPITALISM, HELP ME OUT A BIT HERE AND MAKE A GREAT OFFER.........

MORE OF MY OPINION ON RECENT NEWS: YESTERDAY I LEARNED THAT SOME OF THE STIMULUS MONEY IS COMING TO RHODE ISLAND, $9,000,000 TO BE SPENT ON ROAD SIGNS. WOW, IS THAT WHAT WE REALLY NEED? WHEN ENOUGH PEOPLE GET FED UP WITH THIS BANKRUPT STATE, THEY CAN EASILY FIND THEIR EXODUS ROUTE, JUST READ THE NEW SIGNS. WASTEFUL SPENDING, REGRESSIVE ECONOMICS. IF THIS IS DONE IN RHODE ISLAND, HOW ABOUT YOUR STATE? HOW MANY JOBS WILL THAT CREATE, PROBABLY NONE, MAYBE JUST TO KEEP A FEW ONGOING BUT AT WHAT EXPENSE. SO, LETS THINK FOR A MOMENT WHAT IS PROGRESSIVE AND BENEFICIAL TO THE PEOPLE AND TO THE ECONOMY. WELL, ENOUGH PEOPLE ARE HURTING AND THE NUMBERS ARE GROWING. HOW ABOUT THINKING OUTSIDE OF THE BOX. WHAT DO PEOPLE NEED MOST? FOOD. HOW CAN WE HELP THE PEOPLE THAT NEED IT THE MOST? WELL, WE CAN OPEN UP NONPROFIT FAST FOOD CHAINS, ONLY VEGETARIAN, SALADS, RICE AND BEANS, ALL THE GOOD THINGS TO EAT. HAVE THE SUPERMARKET CHAINS DONATE WHAT THEY HAVE TO THROW OUT. DAY OLD BREAD, FRUITS AND VEGGIES. DO THIS ON THE MAIN ROUTES, LIKE RT.6 IN SEEKONK, MA., RT.2 IN WARWICK, AND HAVE PEOPLE PAY $5.00 ALL YOU CAN EAT. THE NET PROFIT CAN SUPPORT FREE FOOD IN THE URBAN COMMUNITY. JUST A THOUGHT HERE, IF ANYBODY WANTS TO USE THIS IDEA, FEEL FREE TO DO SO. THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO STIMULATE GROWTH IN A DOWN CYCLE, BUT IT SEEMS THAT ALL THESE GOV'T PLANS ARE JUST NOT WORKING. HEALTHCARE DOES NEED REVISION, IT IS A BROKEN SYSTEM. BUT AT WHAT COST, WILL IT END UP LIKE THIS ECONOMY HAS, TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN DEBT. HONESTLY, I DID VOTE FOR THE MAN ADVOCATING CHANGE, LIKE MILLIONS OF OTHERS. BUT THE ONLY CHANGE THAT I HAVE IS THE PENNIES IN MY POCKET. I AM VERY CLOSE TO ASKING FOR A REVOCATION OF MY VOTE. WHY YOU MAY ASK? I AM NOT A POLITICAL GUY, BUT CLINTON HAD A SURPLUS OF ABOUT $235 BILLION WHEN HE LEFT OFFICE. BUSH HAD A DEFICIT OF ABOUT $700 BILLION WHICH TOTALS ABOUT 1 TRILLION WHEN YOU ADD BOTH OF THESE UP. 1 TRILLION DOLLARS DIVIDED BY 8 YEARS OF GOV'T EQUALS 125 BILLION PER YEAR. PRESIDENT OBAMA COULD HAVE A 1.5 TRILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT IN 2009 WHICH EQUALS 500 BILLION DOLLARS FOR THE YEAR. MULTIPLY THAT BY 8 YEARS EQUALS 4 TRILLION DOLLARS. I AM NOT BLAMING ANY ONE PERSON HERE, SO, STOP LAUGHING YOU REPUBLICANS, WHO WAS IN CHARGE WHEN THIS ALL STARTED. THE BLAME IS MANY FOLD ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE. WHEN BOTH SIDES BICKER BACK AND FORTH AND THERE IS NO TRUST, NOTHING GETS ACCOMPLISHED. TIME TO GET THIS GOV'T BACK IN ORDER BEFORE A TOTAL COLLAPSE. PEOPLE ARE UPSET, DOES ANYBODY GET IT?

HERE IS AN UPDATE : AS I OPENED THE BOOK DURING THE DRYING OUT PERIOD (IT WAS VERY WET), I OPENED IT UP TO THE SIGNATURE PAGE. THIS PAGE IS NOW TORN, IT WAS VERY FRAIL FROM THE WETNESS. THIS BOOK IS IN POOR CONDITION ANYWAY, NOW, JUST A BIT WORSE. WILL SEND THIS PAGE ALONG WITH THE BOOK IF IT SELLS, I WILL NOT TAPE OR GLUE IT. NOW FOR MY VOICE TO BE HEARD IF YOUR EARS ARE OPEN TO IT. THERE IS A FAR GREATER PROBLEM IN AMERICA AND THIS WORLD OTHER THAN THE ECONOMIC PROBLEMS WE ARE CURRENTLY FACING. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TURN ON THE TV AND YOU ARE CONSTANTLY BOMBARDED WITH MAJOR VIOLENCE AND KILLINGS. MY SUGGESTION IS FOR EVERY POLITICIAN IN WASHINGTON; DEMOCRATS, REPUBLICANS AND INDEPENDENTS TO DO ONE THING, GET A MEGAPHONE AND SHOUT OUT LOUD, STOP THE VIOLENCE............ STOP THE KILLINGS, NOW............
