Look how adorable Paul McCartney from The Beatles is...
"Out of college, money spent
See no future, pay no rent
All the money's gone, nowhere to go
Any job, I got the sack
Monday morning, turning back
Yellow lorry slow, nowhere to go
But oh, that magic feeling, nowhere to go
Oh, that magic feeling, nowhere to go"
Capitalism, monarchy, communism, they are all very distinguishable forms of government that all seemed to be centered around and elite. But at what point does one shift to a society where the wealthy 1% doesn't control the majority of the worlds assets? In the movie "Capitalism, A Love Story" Micheal More seeks to unveil some of these truths about our current form of government. See no future, pay no rent
All the money's gone, nowhere to go
Any job, I got the sack
Monday morning, turning back
Yellow lorry slow, nowhere to go
But oh, that magic feeling, nowhere to go
Oh, that magic feeling, nowhere to go"
This movie was very entertaining and somewhat painful to watch the same time because it hits so many truthful aspects about our society. One of these issues he confronted that really hit home for me was the interview he had with the pilots. This is a huge issue that many people with an education are facing. Many who go to universities are some how allowed to let 18 year old humans take out thousands of dollars in student loans, but in the same time in their lives are not even able to take out a $5,000 loan for a car without a certain amount of credit history. How does it make sense to allow an 18 year old to take out a $20,000 and often greater loan from a university before one even has the chance to establish any financial stability for themselves... Some who continue on to a doctorates end up with $100,000 in debt. As we saw in the movie about capitalism, even those who work in their degree often don't even make an income over $50,000 some around $30,000. This is not the case for everyone, but I have met several in this exact same position, personally. Something needs to change nationally in this country.
There are many countries that have came up with wonderful solutions to this problem such as Germany, so I wonder what the hold up is here in the United States. I fear that the issue has a lot to do with money as this movie addressed.
