14 DAY TRIAL // If you took your kids to see the latest Muppets film over the weekend, you might have just brainwashed them to be against capitalism. At least that's what Eric Boiling of Fox Business Network seems to believe.
The video below is with a discussion between Boiling and a couple of analysts about how the “The Muppets” film is actually a very subtle means of class warfare, meant to indoctrinate children against the oil industry.
As they see it, the inclusion of Tex Richman, an oil tycoon that wants to destroy the Muppet's studio, in the film equals teaching children that the oil industry is bad and that all oil corporations are evil.
Moreover, even if you never thought it possible, “The Muppets” is no different from “Cars 2,” “Syriana” or “There Will Be Blood,” in that they are all against capitalism, and take on the oil industry and present it in a negative light.
Towards the end of the clip, things really seem about to get out of hand. Check it out to hear all the arguments.
