Such drama. Dude.
It's a move by left wing Hollywood that's trying to sell Obamacare. That's it.

No, it's not. Look into who made the movie any why, from his own mouth.

Your bias and ignorance are showing, and it's really ugly.

Someone earlier in this thread said a great thing, you are confusing left/right with up/down. You are tricked into thinking left means down and right means up. It doesn't. Down is down and up is up, left right doesn't matter one bit, except to people like you.

When you are being treated like an animal, and surrounded by your fellow left AND right animals trying to survive, who do you blame then? Maybe then you realize this is a vertical problem, not a horizontal ones.

Although I struggle at times, I detest the notion of socialized anything.
I fear the revolting hoards, more than the brutally illuminated.
Wealth is usually nurtured by the industrious, poverty awaits those unfortunate souls who know not how to serve the needs of their fellow "man"

I don't know the answers, but envy for the industrious is not it.
It is all too often incorrectly expressed, that :
"I am poor, because you are rich".

So when the wealthy use their influence to make laws that you and I must follow, which affect our ability to make a living, they are innocent of any blame? If you had any idea how industry in this country works you'd know it's a rich man's club intent on keeping competition nonexistent.

True competition is gone, and true competition is the only thing that allows hard work to pay off. They have stacked the deck, and them you blame the players when they loose. You seem to have no care whatsoever for your fellow man.

And as someone else mentioned, a huge part of the "wealth" these people brag about is fake. It's made up, totally dependent upon manipulating the financial sector and creating debt. That's not being industrious, that's not being a hard worker, that's being selfish and downright evil. Others starve so that they eat, literally. It's a direct connection. Even people INSIDE the industry say this same thing, yet people like you still close your eyes and pretend that the way to wealth is hard work. The way to wealth is taking advantage of others, and how well you are connected. Having connections and taking advantage of others is not something worthy of anyone's respect, it's disgusting such things are common these days.

SO I ask you, am I seeing things that aren't there or am I seeing yet another stunt Hollywood liberals are pulling to sell their "share the wealth" socialist theology to a gullible population?

Pretty sure it was just a propaganda piece. If it was supposed to be sci-fi the writers need to look for a new career path. Even Cracked.com noticed.
