So someone who produces a film with his own money (i.e., 'invests' in it) and takes a profit is stealing from himself?
Owns money? Fabricated or worked for? Won at the lottery, lucky guess on the latest plunge in markets?
Com'on - go ahead and tell me where it comes from.
In the particular situation of a Film - it's a different "investing" capitalization schema (Do some research on the subject, you'll soon find out the risk isn't shared by all involved.)
Greedy investors will stop at nothing to maximize their profits... and if they do, salaries are LOWERED to create it artificially or maintained low enough to distribute that much or sadly, more but never less.
Banks loan everyone, you, me money for interests. That's the privilege of the poor which hands over living conditions to the rich.
Governments tax all to provide social & common systems such as education & health care & roads & what else. Why should these taxes go into the deep pockets of corporate giants (call it a coincidence) like GM or free-market driven CEOs? They knew the risks, they wanted the challenge. Wrong decisions enforced them into failures and bankruptcy?
Weren't they too sharing their profits with investors, decades ago? That's theft. Organized by economic principles that puts industrialized countries an entire millenia ahead of third world & under-developped countries.
Own money? Say again. [e digicons]o_O[/e]
Now if you don't get the above, nothing else will ever be bizarre enough to rationalize such realities to you.
