| User ReviewNithin KA frightening and disheartening look at the harmonious waltz between money and politics, conspiring for the 'haves' to acquire more. A must see for members of the republican and tea party movement, who have been duped into fighting for the 'uber haves'. |
| User ReviewJonathan BIt's what I have been seeing. It's laid out in front of all of us. |
| User ReviewBart BWanna see where David Koch lives? Wanna know why the rich couldn't give a rat's ass about the rest of us? Watch this. It's on Netflix. Get pissed off like me and then I'll meet you in the streets. |
| User ReviewAlejandro RReally well done! Very disturbing the trend of a smaller and smaller group of people controlling an increasing amount of the money, but while that end result is disturbing what's even more disturbing is how they got to control that much in the way of resources. This film reaffirmed what I've known to be the case for years. LOBBY REFORM OR ABOLITION IS NECESSARY!!! |
| User ReviewDawn ?Want to be outraged. Want to roll around barking at your screen.....want to feel cheated and robbed....well here you go....this is just the smack in your face you might need to realize that your american dream is harder to get than you realize. I loved it! |

| User ReviewRiley HWell documented documentation of reality about American politics and poverty in the American society - With its compare and contrast theme as well as fact check on how the opportunity game is rigged and not just at a level of natural unfairness , the movie does a good job on explaining realities. |
| User ReviewDiane Lhmmm interesting, though anyone who actually thinks should know this by now unless you don't care or are apathetic till it affects you personally. |
| User ReviewThomas AWhile deceptively less about the location and more about the politics, this film opened my eyes to problems that I didn't even know existed. And although I may not 100% agree with the views of the filmmakers, it's hard to argue with facts. |
| User ReviewArpita MOne of the finest documentary filmmakers of our time doesn't disappoint with this expose on the rich's influence on politics. Because he so systematically demolishes the libertarian/tea party ideology, I really want some of my less progressive friends to see it and perhaps provide a counterpoint. I doubt they will though and so I wonder if documentaries such as this can really open people's eyes or do they end up preaching to the choir. |
