Don't get me wrong: Michael Moore is a right asshole. But this argument is getting old: "If you care so much why don't you give away all your money." It's a stupid argument. Whatever you can say about Moore he didn't start out with a whole hell of a lot - he's worked and earned for what he's got and he gives away a larger percentage of his earnings that the vast, vast majority of people. There's no requirement to give up everything you've worked for to prove that you care. And asking somebody too is just plain ridiculous. You can slam him for his simplistic views, his inability to see compromise or his arrogance - but at least slam him for something relevant. Don't slam him because he's not giving away ALL his money - especially when he's giving away more of it that most.
