Michael Moore got Government Subsidy for Anti-Capitalist Movie

New from the Michigan Macinac Center

The Michigan Film Industry tax break allows for film makers who produce movies in Michigan to receive more funds back from the State than they actually pay in. Moore, a Board Member of the MI Film Industry Commission, took full advantage of the Tax Refundable program for his movie “Capitalism: A Love Story.”

Ironically, Moore, as a Council Member, originally opposed the program:

“Multi-national corporations, ViaCom, GE, Rupert Murdoch, all these studios. Why do they need our money from Michigan, from our taxpayers? We’re already broke here…”

  1. Why doesn’t this surprise me, however, this sounds illegal and is more proof that Moore is a hypocrite!

    I you oppose legislation which would mandate equal wages no matter your occupation or lack thereof, should you then refuse your wages once that legislation takes effect?
