I liked the segment on how the Patriot Act was passed.. and how the person being interviewed (he was from Michigan) stated that they NEVER read the bills that get approved because they simply have no time.

So when asked why/how it was passed, he responsed, "Honestly, we didn't even read it. We don't read most of the items that come through." He laughed and continued, "If we read everything that came through, it would severely halt the legislation process."

That's a comforting thought.

Anyway, people are too busy pointing out the trival things like the Rock Music & Dead Children mentioned above (actually they weren't protrayed together) instead of discussing the main point of the movie: everything is about profit.

[edit]
RE: Soldiers/Music and dead kids.. they weren't portrayed together at all.

It was there to show how some think it's a game and don't realize what they're doing. The whole point of the music thing was to show that some aren't taking it seriously.

Like how the soldiers interviewed said "We like to turn on 'Let the bodies hit the floor' as we rush in. Gives a great adrenaline rush and pumps you up" while another said "We like to turn on 'The roof is on fire' as we hit our targets". Not all soliders are like that, but isn't it a striking similarity to Apocalypse Now where they were blaring the music over the speakers as they mowed people down?

The dead children came much much later and the movie in no way stated that the soldiers enjoyed killing/killing children. Most of the soliders stated how it kills a part of them anytime they realize that they killed another human.

In fact, it showed soliders being nice to the children and giving them candy.
