"To discover to the world something which deeply concerns it, and of which it was previously ignorant; to prove to it that it had been mistaken on some vital point of temporal or spiritual interest, is as important a service as a human being can render to his fellow creatures..." John Stuart Mill, "On Liberty"

Capitalism and The Barbaric Heart
According to Curtis White, esteemed author of The Middle Mind,Michael Moore misses the point. The problems of capitalism are not its moral failings, but its virtues. The desire to win, the view of the world as a zero sum game lies, White believes, at the heart of our economic and environmental problems. He explains all of this in his newest work The Barbaric Heart: Faith, Money, and the Crisis of Nature.
