| Michael Moore Owns 9 Homes |
| 2014-07-24 |
| [BREITBART] According to the bankrupt, increasingly impoverished, reliably Democrat, Detroit ... ruled by Democrats since 1962. A city whose Golden Age included the Purple Gang... News, anti-capitalism "everyman" filmmaker Michael Moore owns 9 homes. On top of a $2 million, 10,000 square foot lakefront mansion in Torch Lake, Michigan, there is a Manhattan condo that was once 3 condos, and 7 other properties. Moore's secret role as a land baron was revealed in divorce papers: The filmmaker, 60, who split his time between a home here and one in New York, is leaving his wife of 22 years, Kathy Glynn. His hit movies and best-selling books have begat a lifestyle far from most ballcap-wearing, duck-waddling denizens of Flint. Moore and Glynn own nine properties in Michigan and New York, including a Manhattan condo that once was three apartments. CelebrityNetWorth.com pegs their wealth at $50 million. In legal pleadings, Moore blames his wife for the expansion of the 10,000-square-foot home on Torch Lake, which has a value of $2 million. Since his 1989 "Roger and Me," Michael Moore has earned upwards of $50 million trashing capitalism. |

| #6 On a per-pound basis, nine is really not that many. Besides, I bet he's filled them all with poor immigrant children. |

| #4 One percenters who assuage their conscious with the money of others. St. Francis' example not applicable for these people. One set of rules for me, a second set of rules for thee. As another poster often quips - I'll believe them when they start acting accordingly. Do take note of a wealthy actor who recently passed and is now reported to have cut his children out of the estate because (to paraphrase) he didn't want them to become trust fund babies. |

| #1 Limousine liberal (or latte liberal) is a derogatory term used to describe a rich liberal who considers themselves a champion of the poor and downtrodden, but lives a lifestyle of wealth and luxury. Limousine liberal is mostly an American term. In Austrialia, an equivalent term is "chardonnay socialist", while in France the equivalent term is gauche caviar (caviar left). "Capitalism is an organized system to guarantee that greed becomes the primary force of our economic system and allows the few at the top to get very wealthy and has the rest of us riding around thinking we can be that way, too - if we just work hard enough, sell enough Tupperware and Amway products, we can get a pink Cadillac."
