Hollywood - a grande maquina de mentiras


Infelizmente muitas pessoas ganham uma grande parte de seus conhecimentos sobre historia e economia de filmes cheio de mentiras e distorções. Veja Gekko em Wall Street:
“The richest 1% of this country owns half our country’s wealth, $5 trillion. One-third of that comes from hard work, two-thirds comes from inheritance, interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons and what I do, stock and real estate speculation. It’s bullshit. You got 90% of the American public out there with little or no net worth. I create nothing. I own. We make the rules, pal. The news, war, peace, famine, upheaval, the price per paper clip. We pick that rabbit out of the hat while everybody sits out there wondering how the hell we did it. Now you’re not naive enough to think we’re living in a democracy, are you buddy? It’s the free market.”
Gordon Gekko, character in Wall Street (feature film, 1987)
