Moore's new film, Capitalism: A Love Story, which goes nationwide Oct. 2, is his most vigorous, rollicking, broadly ambitious work yet. Not satisfied with condemning the housing and banking crises of the past year, he expands the story of the financial collapse into an epic of malfeasance--capital crimes on an international scale. The movie also has the requisite Moore grandstanding scenes: attempting a citizen's arrest of AIG executives, parking a Brink's truck in front of banking establishments to retrieve the bailout billions they received, wrapping the New York Stock Exchange building in yellow tape that reads...

...skeptics’ rationale speaks to conflicting realities of life in the 02138. This campus purports to contain some of the most intellectually curious students in the world. However, many spend countless hours attempting to escape from schoolwork—whether by roaming Lamont aimlessly, Facebook-stalking potential love interests, or downing scorpion bowls at the Kong. When, five hours before the deadline, it’s impossible to avoid that paper any longer, the finished product often turns out less than inspired. What happened to the hunger for learning that so many of us claimed to possess in college...
