Although I lean to the left politically, I will concede that Michael Moore is a one-sided ideologue
But so are modern day "libertarians"

U.S. companies post their biggest profit growth in decades by jacking up prices during the pandemic.
- U.S. companies posted record profits in 2021, even as Americans struggled with rising consumer prices amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Corporate pretax profits surged 25% year over year to $2.81 trillion, the Bureau of Economic Analysis said on Wednesday. That’s the largest annual increase since 1976, according to the Federal Reserve.
- When taxes are factored in, last year’s corporate profit increases were even more of an outlier. They soared 37% year over year, more than any other time since the Fed began tracking profits in 1948.

The level of sneakiness with Americans hiding money abroad is staggering.
Whether dodging taxes or legal peril, wealthy Americans often succeed in concealing assets from the government by hiding their money in offshore bank accounts.
Research from the IRS and a group of economists last year found that the top 1% of earners in the U.S. neglect to report 20% of their income — and that random audits almost never detect offshore accounts.
“The level of sneakiness around very wealthy American clients hiding their money abroad is kind of staggering,” best-selling author Patrick Radden Keefe told Yahoo Finance’s editor-in-chief in a new episode of "Influencers with Andy Serwer."
