Must see documentaries

Why We Fight, which is a documentary that delves into the industrial-military complex. The film begins with a clip of President Eisenhower's last speech of his term in office warning the American public about the industrial-military complex, in which the defense industry has and will continue to wield too much power if not ebbed.


The second, The Corporation, is a film discussing the downfalls of the modern day corporation. The most compelling point: Corporations, by rulings of the higher courts, are a person, and by such have all the rights of a person (e.g., constitutional rights). The issue is, however, due to the nature of a corporation they don't have any moral obligations, rather just the bottom line - money. This, of course, is what has been demonstrated over the course of history and not necessarily a reflection on ALL corporations.
